2022 Hasbro Pulse-Con Day 2 - G.I. Joe, Avalon Hill, Magic The Gathering, Indiana Jones, Star Wars

[MagnaPrime]

I was on the fence with Serpentor and waited too long.  Congrats to all that got him.  Shipwreck is amazing !  I'm torn on Indy.  It feels like his shoulders are too thin.

I’ve been excitedly waiting for this Indy reveal but I am a little disappointed by the face. Just seems like hasbro can’t seem to get Harrison ford likeness down for whatever reason.

Ah. Good point.  Guess that means any possible connery jones senior won’t look correct either.

Can someone explain to me how it is possible for a PRE-ORDER item--something whose units are most likely STILL being manufactured, to become considered at the primary market store as SOLD OUT??

Why don't Hasbro's "PRE-ORDER" buttons works so long as people are willing to press it and pay??  

Companies typically have to let the factory know well in advance how many units they want. When it's time to make Serpentor or some other figure, the factory makes what Hasbro asked for and then moves on to the next figure.

Lenny Panzica of the G.I. Joe Brand brings us some new looks at the G.I. Joe Classified Series Serpentor from Hasbro.

"Before he was officially in the line I always knew I wanted to enhance the Cobra Emperor’s textures. I could imagine how epic he would look with his snake details and scales pushed in a more realistic direction. So it was super important that I designed the snake skin pattern to his suit in a way that made sense from an anatomy stand point. However I also needed to pay respect the the original design. The brass/gold color was something I found so fascinating as kid more than that the metallic finish brings his textures to life."

Repeater's gun!

Does he come with that blast effect? I'll cross my fingers for yes but I don't think so. Regardless, the figure and vehicle are amazing; not just great sculpts but the various sheens (glossy/metallic armor vs more matte green snake parts) and textures (that cape!) show huge attention to detail and care. I'm really excited to get mine in hand.

[ransomz]

So I see he's still sold out. Is this just some kind of cruel tease? Thanks for nothing, Has-blow.

Not sure about how often Hasbro changes it's mind, but Lenny and co. promised that while the HISS won't have the blast effects, there will be releases that will. So for the time we have to be patient. or not lol.

Also, while I do like the figure, the real deal for me is the Chariot. Man, that amount of design is incredible. I won't have this item, because I'm strict 1:18 collector, and don't want to pay that amount of cash for a toy, but otherwise it is pretty badass.

Thanks to sb_toyz we have new in-hand images to share with you of Hasbro's new G.I. Joe Classified Serpentor figure. This was sold as a Hasbro Pulse exclusive, and Hasbro is starting to prepare to ship it out to folks who pre-ordered it.

Oh man this looks so sweet.

I cant wait to get this guy staged with my Cobra shelf

 

[Roadpigmaster]

Looks awesome and I'm glad that I pre-ordered.

He literally went up four times. Twice for members. Twice for non members. I got him right at 6pm for non members the first time. The second time he stayed up for 3 hours for non members. How you didn’t get him is beyond me. Instead of blaming hasbro Blame yourself. Everyone who didn’t get him the first time got him the second time. It’s like y’all want things handed to you on platter.

I Preordered my Serpentor from Gamestop in Ontario Canada and they all seem to have gotten their shipments. If you preordered this figure I dont think youll be disappointed. The details on the chariot - including the underside - are immaculate and this set is bad ass (as you can tell I am not a professional photographer, but just some quick shots of elements I didnt think have been highlighted)

The figure is really nice. Paint apps look great, im very happy with the accessories (not sure why I went with the alt head, but I like it as well) and next to a larger Marvel figure you can see he stacks up. The cape has a really nice scale pattern on it as well.

The gamestop I got mine from had an extra and one of the two a town over had a bunch. If you missed a preorder and youre in the GTA or west of it you may be in luck.

IMHO if youre a fan of the OG Chariot and Serpentor, this nails it. If youre a Classified fan, this is a must have.

 

[MrWolf12000]

Forgot about the mouth cannon, love that. Added some blast effects that look real good with this set.

The cannons are almost perfect for an OG Roadblock gun. Hopefully we have a way to get some of these outside of this set; I F#!&ING LOVE THIS

[Roadpigmaster]

Those pictures of Serpentor in your collection guys, looks fantastic... I can't wait to get mine

[JayC]

Shown below are in-hand images of Hasbro's new G.I. Joe Classified Serpentor figure. This was sold as a Hasbro Pulse exclusive, and Hasbro is now shipping it out to folks who pre-ordered it.

Overall I really like both the figure and Air Chariot. I wish the Chariot came with a flight stand and that the elbows on the figure were able to bend a little bit more, but those are more minor nitpicks than actual complaints. The sculpting detail on the figure itself is really nice as they did a good job of capturing the textures of the armor. I won't say this is my favorite Classified figure but it is definitely up there.

It's so amazing the size and details of this figure... I will be very pleased when I get mine...

“Thieving cons”… those are some strong feelings.

The folks at ToyHabbits have discovered some image from social media giving us our first in-hand look at the new G.I. Joe Classified Crimson B.A.T. figure which reports suggest has started showing up somewhere in France. Here in the US you can still pre-order this figure from places like our sponsor Entertainment Earth.

He’s beautiful. I think he even looks better than the OG BAT!

People have both Indy’s in hand and thankfully they look wayyyy better than the promo images. The Club Obi Wan Indy’s likeness is wonderful and the regular one’s is pretty decent.
