25th Anniversary Figs

[Buckwheat826]

So far so good. Someone asked in an earlier thread why the need for the O-ring. One of my responses were for doing customs. I should have added though that yes while it is fun, most of us wouldn't have to bother if the figure was close to what most everyone wants and appreciates. Of course no figure will be perfect in everyone's eyes, but if a median was finally established in which most did appreciate the look, the figure wouldn't have to made in such a way that they could be disassembled. It would be great, but not absolute. Sure some hobby tweaks will continue but not on a proportion like before, me thinks. There's no need.

 

Everyone know's I love the past 2 year's figures, but I must admit that THESE ARE the new sculpts! In fact, I and probably many were just buying PARTS to build the figures we wanted. Most of my figure collection (non army builders of course) isn't original.

 

Just my opinion.

 

We still gotta reserve judgement until we see some organic photos or better yet, on our desk next to the other dudes. Meanwhile...I'm feelin' them. They look hot!

I really like what I have seen thus far. I really hope they do the packaging like the VOTC Star Wars figures even though it will probably bring the price up to 10 bucks a pop. The reproduction of the vintage cards make it well worth it to me. They just look so good!

do you think that snake-eyes will be shown today or last?

I really want this as well! I'm hoping that they will be less than $10 though.....since Hasbro doesn't have to pay Lucas a mint for GI Joes like they do Star Wars.

If they really are 3 3/4", then I'll like them a lot, especially the Scarlett. Even if not 3 3/4", I'll like them for what they are, but will be disappointed they won't fit in with the classics/classic vehicles.

[Three Storms]

So far they're OK, but Hasbro still has 22 chances to screw up with the remaining figures not shown yet, and they probably will. There's always one figure that's highly anticipated then disappoints, or one that's dead perfect, but they short-pack it so no one can get it.

Great looking figs. Can't wait to see what the next one is. My wallet is already crying for relief.

Man....Im so impressed...Im not collecting anymore..But I will buy these 25...I jusdt hope they look as good as what we are seeing...

I LOVE THEM!

 

A line based on the original great ones is AwEsOmE!

 

 

So that means we SHOULD be getting version 1 Snake Eyes and NOT version 2, right? @firedevil@

 

The word I had heard was that these would be the definitive versions-- ergo: the most recognizable.

 

So if Leatherneck, for example, were on the list ( unlikely), he might be in his first version, or Low Light, likewise in his first look as well.

I think it'll be a safe guess that Snake-eyes will be version 2, and should come with the wolf.

[Pit Viper]

I wouldn't be surprised if we get both v1 and v2 of Snake-Eyes.

[T-Rat]

I wouldn't be surprised if we get both v1 and v2 of Snake-Eyes.

 

I can see that happening. It would be disappointing I rather have a different character.

[severed]

this is what JvC should have been all along. (or course if JvC had gotten it right in the first place we may have not gotten the classic 3 packs like the oktober guard) the only thing im hoping is that all 25 are ready available and not short-packed, that theyre not too expensive, and that i can get them all!

 

thumbs up and here's hoping they're even better in person..

[Devilbat]

I say I love em...based on the pics that is. And we all know that sometimes figures turn out to be better in-hand than they seem in the initial pictures, and then other times they turn out worse. So who knows for sure? But like I said, judging by the pics, they're great. If anything I appreciate what Hasbro is doing with this line; straight-up new sculpts of old classics, hopefully in commemorative packaging. Isn't that what we've been clamoring for since 2001? Maybe some of us earlier than that even? (lol)

[joefreak]

They look awsom but they just look alot taller. I'm certain that this Duke will tower over Barrage with a torso so long and really long legs.

[Guest McBragg]

Wow. Just wow. Nothing like a loaded poll and borderline trolling. @smilepunch@

[Viper Hunter]

Wow! I thought for sure that there would be some haters out there. Didn't expect to see 10 for 10.

 

They're out there. Viper Hunter is just usually sent to bed early! @smilepunch@

 

Kidding VH, just kidding!

 

 

I've got a fresh pair of depends on, so I'm ready for ACTION!

[Viper Hunter]

So to all the VHunters out there speak your mind and its all good in the hood,everybody gots an opinion and you know what they say,opinions are like a--holes and ifits not yours it probaly stinks,lol.

 

 

@loll@ This is very true my good man...very true!

 

 

 

 

btw everyone....I voted they're okay! I'm not a "hater" just not too easily impressed.

[DPrime]

After seeing ten of 'em, I figure I could vote. I went with "okay" as well, but it was close... There are some minor details that I hope will be fixed at the production stage at this point.
