Cartoon accurate LJ without a hat and with removable javellins!

 

I remember last year at SDCC we were asking the team and they said that they would like to come out with a Lady Jaye w/o her hat. Now we are getting her :)

hmmm so was ANYTHING retooled on these vehicles? it looks to me like Vamp has a more accurate gun, and more accurate coloring.

 

Serp's air chariot.. better colors, snake head w/ opening mouth.

 

but the RAM and Armadillo look the same minus new colors, and better detail becuase of the upgraded color.

So far I'm liking everything but the 12-inch Joes. IMHO, let Sideshow or some other company that does larger scale figures better handle that part of the merchandising, and stick to what you do best, Hasbro, which is the 3 3/4 size!!

 

The stand-outs for me thus far are the new (old) vehicles. I especially like the idea that we'll be getting a new VAMP with (hopefully) Clutch! It's been too long since these vehicles were seen on toy shelves, and not soon enough that we'll see them yet again. :-)

The idea of this just made my head explode........if I see a 25th Barbecue sometime today my computer will have brain matter all over it. @loll@

 

Um...why does LJ look like she has a pig's nose?? I HOPE this is a prototype test shot instead of the finalized figure!

 

I absolutely love that they used the original molds of the RAM, VAMP and Armadillo, but updated small details such as adding actual handlebars and a working rotating gatling cannon to the RAM, gear baskets and supply pouches on the sides of the Armadillo and removable bedroll and shovel from the hood of the VAMP!

 

God, I hope Hasbro keeps up with the nostalgia factor with this line!

Yeah, her face is a little off......just a little......but this is the best Lady Jaye figure we have EVER seen IMO. I always thought she got the short end of the stick when it came to figures.......not anymore.
