  1. Well I popped open an extra Shipwreck just to test it out with some vice grip pliers and it worked well, some of the tiny pegs broke inside but they will easily glue back together, only thing is that the upper torso just flops around once back together, its so loose, nothing was missing that wasnt there before so how do I tighten the torso back up?
  2. Yea that sounds kinda risky, thanks for the reply tho I appreciate it.
  3. Hey I got an easy question for all your customizing masters out there, how the heck do I split the torso on these new joes so I can switch arms? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
  4. You can get a hold of a Zarana for a decent price, I got mine for under 30 bucks on ebay, They probably jacked up the prices now with this new pack coming out but I saw some after I one the auction going only as high as 20-30 dollars. I know thats still a lot to pay for one figure, but, I had to have her knowing that we would probably never see in mass retail.
  5. Now all we need is an updated classic Zartan, the new sculpting style is excellent and I would love a newer version of the classic Zartan look, painted just like my avatar. To go a stretch further, I would also be happy with an updated Buzzer, one that actually has the thigh guards on his legs like the original design, and either lose the elbow and shoulder guards on him or Ripper so they werent so similar. They could make that work with some of the new existing scuplts I think.
  6. Cant believe we are getting all the remaining 'noks in one pack, to finally get a Zandar and Zanzibar since their debut in the 80's is amazing, and not to mention the debut of Zanya, they really did an outstanding job in giving the fans what they want. That being said, now, im definately not a "nay sayer" or anything, but, did anyone else notcie the odd facial sculpting they chose for Zandar and Thrasher? They really dont look anything like their comic or cartoon conterparts, Thrasher looks like a guy in his 40's or so whose had too much sun, maybe its the eyebrows, and Zandars face looks nothing like him (in my point of view anyway) they almost look like you might know them personally, like an old high school buddy or high school teacher. Still preordered them b*tches tho lol, Anyway, so glad I got a Zarana on ebay for a decent price, cant wait for the whole gang to be reunited!
  7. Definatley great work they look great. Can i ask how you take apart the modern/25th style joes? i have some things id love to do regarding part swapping put dont know how to successfully take these guys apart.
  8. Watched and interview with Stephen Sommers and he commented on this design< he said he never liked the hooded version, but he does really like the chrome face plate look. He also said because this movie is called"The Rise of Cobra" we might see a more original design face mask in future films. (If their is a sequel of course) Glad to see that Zartan made it into the first film, being a high ranking member of Cobra he should be in the first. Sommer's said there are a lot of cameos in this move, one being Dr. Mindbender, he only has a small part though. Might see Firefly in the second. As for the movie figures, just thinking about getting Firefly and maybe SS and SE for custom parts but thats all. Also waiting for that 2-pack with Monkeywrench.
  9. LoL you know you drew those last week stop lying lol, j/k bro. I used to draw a lot of war themed chaos pictures too, tho mine were more stick figures lol
  10. i wouldnt say dat im new here. been visiting regularly 4 many years. jus havent been much of a participant in da forums as of late. yes, im talkin bout da sunbow joe toons. all of us hav diff tastes so if u dont like it, dats cool. same way i dont like resolute n others do. but my complaints bout resolute r specific. u seem 2 b pointing out da absurdities of da original joe cartoon. but dat was a diff time than now. toons r radically diff. but as far as storytelling, entertainment, n characterization, n even themes, resolute cant hold a candle 2 anything from da originals. granted resolute is a stand-alone, i understand that n tryin 2 compare an hour to several years aint necessarily fair. but lumpin all da original concepts n comparin it 2 resolute is wut im talkin bout. an ep here n there like ur doin aint how im makin my comparisons if im makin sense. if resolute is better dan da original joe cartoon as a whole, then tell me in wut way. cuz i can watch any ep of da original gijoe n luv it n not jus 4 nostalgia. yet i could barely make it thru resolute. Nevermind. My eyes hurt. Agreed
  11. If you look closly resolute Zartan is based off of the 25th Wave 3 Zartan from 2007. So there is no need for a "resolute Zartan" Plus I highly doubt we are getting anymore resolute figures anyways. He is slightly based off of the wave 3 Zartan but he is different, resolute Zartans chest armor is plated, and his hood looks more like a cloth wrapped around his neck and head to make the hood, look its no secret Zartan is my absolute favorite character Cobra or otherwise so its no wonder i pick up small details like this. I still would love this version of him, but the way hasbro has been lately.. he wouldnt be produced first off and second, if he was.... he would be a rehash of figures and wouldnt look exactly like this resolute version anyway. I totally wouldnt mind ridiculous amounts of re-paints or re-tooled Zartans like we get for Duke, CC, SS and SE
  12. Ok, this IS the ultimate GI Joe, this is how all of us older people used to play with our joe figures, anyway, now i really want a whole line up Resolute figures, loving the designs. Heres to hoping we get more characters down the road, im especially loving that Snake Eyes design and Firefly, CANT WAIT to see Zartan.
  13. Where did you get the idea these were supposed to be the "definitive" versions? IMO, if that were the case, they wouldn't have had TWO Snake-Eyes on there. Every promotion i have read has said that these are the "Definitive" versions of these characters, i might be wrong but thats what ive read for these guys, and we have 2 Snake Eyes figures because they are the 2 most distinct versions of him, (goggles and visor look) giving us the definitive V1 and V2...
