There's some nice stuff here. I'm glad to see some reissues since I didn't go in wave one. I can't wait to see the new characters.

Our sponsor Valaverse made some awesome reveals for Day 2 of Valafair. In the evening they announced that Ghillie Suits is coming to Action Force! Stay tuned for more info on these in the near future. These will be coming in the Fall of 2023!

[InvisibleStormtrooper]

I really love the idea of upgrade packs for Kill-Switch, Eclipse and Pandora, what a cool idea to get new expression heads like that! I'm also looking forward to the reissues and the new characters.

[toynewman]

Our sponsor Valaverse made some awesome reveals for Day 3 of Valafair. The livestream started with news on the next JoeFest Exclusive which was a 3.75" 5 point of Articulation Desert Rat Figure created in collaboration with Stan Solo. There will be 1500 Carded and 1500 Loose figures available for purchase during the show at the Valaverse Table.

They then moved onto some some 2024 reveals which showcased some new body styles that are coming in Series 4 & 5 of Action Force! We then saw the bodies for Buddha, Sidewinder and Atlas along with a brand new character coming to Action Force called Colonel Siege.
 

 

 

The stream then moved on to an update about the Vanguard. It's at the factory and sometimes soon Booby should have a 3d print of the vehicle. At that point he will let folks know what it costs. The Vanguard can fit up to FIVE 6" figures inside and One 6" figure manning the gun turret. After a brief video showing an Action Points exclusive character that is coming, they treated folks to another awesome reveal.... A new character announced for the line called Crimson Shadow: Praetorian for Series 4. Look for it to be released in 2024!

[Satam]

The Crimson Shadow Praetorian is pretty cool. Colonel Siege is, too - kind of a mix of Wardaddy from Fury and Colonel Miles Quaritch from Avatar with a bit of Lee Marvin thrown in.

[ozzy]

Oh man!  They'll be able to charge whatever price they want for that 6" scale vehicle!  It has a front, a middle and a back!!!

[memocromatico]

Wow!!! That vehicle is looking awesome!!! I hope it's affordable. All of the Valaverse things that I've found in MX is insanely overpriced, but a vehicle may be worth it!

[toynewman]

Shown below is the new Valaverse Action Force 1/12 Scale Vanguard Vehicle on display at ChrisCon Action Figure Convention as Valaverse posted this nice video from the show! Stay Tuned.

They aren't overpriced and in fact they just lowered prices across the board due to the success of the line. The price of this vehicle is in the article. It's between $150-190 and comes with a figure and doesn't require crowdfunding. There will be multiple colors offered over time for different terrains like desert, snow, jungle, etc.

I know that, that's why specified that the stuff I found in MX (Mexico, where I live) is extremely overpriced. Be it because of shipping or resellers, most of the figures are about twice as expensive as they MSRP. Im not dissing the line, Im being hopeful about being able to afford a 1:12 vehicle where I live.

[Reno]

I'm not going to say that they're overpriced, because I don't think that they are - but unlicensed stuff should always be far cheaper than similar licensed stuff - that's just a fact. I don't own any of these but would likely buy a few at $12-13 or less but since they're not sold at mass retail they'll never hit that type of clearance price. That's the same price point where I'm willing to consider Hasbro Joes, Indiana Jones, Star Wars and Power Rangers 6" figures by the way. I only buy them when I find them at that price or less (usually at Target on clearance, but occasionally online somewhere).

Shown below are new shots of the tooling check model for the upcoming Action Force 1/12 Scale Vanguard vehicle from Valaverse. Pre-orders for the Vanguard are looking to go up in early September. Check back soon for more details

[Faceless]

Don't like how curvy the front of the vehicle is. Looks like a soccer mom's crossover or something.

[toynewman]

Action Force fans, we wan to hear your voice again! We currently have the Vanguard's first offering in desert tan but we thought we would see how you would like some additional options. We set up a fan poll at the link below. Now, before you rush over there to cast your vote, this poll gives 4 options in ranking order. Assigning #1 makes that your first choice, #2 for your second choice and so on.

Vote Here:

This poll will stay open until August 18th. After that, we will look at the numbers and decide if we will make the initial Vanguard offering a different color. Please keep in mind that we will be offering the Vanguard in other colors after this first release

[MRT]

Voted green 1st and tan 2nd. Really looking forward to this. Hope its available in our country.

The new price adjustment reasoning may be slightly skewed.  They said it was the success if the line and the cheaper card/ bubble packaging.  
it’s a few dollar savings which is great, but it’s for figures in the new packaging which was clearly stated as a cost saving change.  
may JoeFest the vehicle price range was stated as 175-190

This doesn't change the fact that prices were lowered during a time when the multi-billion dollar conglomerates are raising prices multiple times since the Valaverse brand was established. The fact that their 6" scale vehicle is coming in under $200 and comes with both a figure and is not being crowdfunded is also another win. If a tiny little company like this can do it then so can Hasbro and Mattel given they can do it and receive discounts based on bulk orders.

Agree on all counts. Valaverse dissected the bs about the GR haslab car and a lot of people cant stand it. Here they're showing that you can do the vehicle and equipment AND a figure and you dont need a "kickstarter". Certainly huge multibillion corporations don't need them.

[yojoebro82]

As a GI Joe fan, I've had my eyes on this line for a while.  I may have to get Condor and Kearak, who I believe are the two leaders.  (If you take the helmet off Kerak, he looks like a buddy of mine).

[ransomz]

That skull face guy looks pretty cool. It feels a bit disloyal to Joe to buy outside the line though. That sounds a bit silly saying it out loud.
