David Hingtgen Posted June 12, 2021 Posted June 12, 2021 Yeah, that color is kinda "gross". It's a sickly white. It's not even cream or ivory, it's like "nicotine-stained" or something.
JetJockey Posted June 12, 2021 Posted June 12, 2021 Might be worth a listen to people here as I've just about thrown in the towel expecting to see a nice line up of GI Joe figures in a store. I still can't believe that Walmart and Target are the places to go for toys these days. Although Toys R Us never had the newest figures way before they went out of business. It still shouldn't be like this. It's like some bad alternate universe.
Golden Arms Posted June 12, 2021 Posted June 12, 2021 Major Bludd has been popping in one the Target App the last few days. He is currently available in my neck of the woods. Available for store pickup.

Negotiator Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 Go naaaoooo https://www.target.com/p/g-i-joe-classified-series-alvin-8220-breaker-8221-kibbey-with-ram-cycle/-/A-81959633 https://www.target.com/p/g-i-joe-classified-series-gabriel-8220-barbecue-8221-kelly-action-figure/-/A-81959604
Negotiator Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 Thanks hope everybody can pre-order theirs. Pulse lasted about 4 minutes or however long it took them to process my card before confirmation
magicsp00n Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 I'll say that the availability of Bludd and now today's smooth preorder of Barbecue and Breaker are encouraging. Credit to Target and Hasbro for improving things. Hopefully it's the norm going forward.
Big s Posted June 18, 2021 Posted June 18, 2021 I’m not really surprised that a firefighter would be easy to get, but it does seem encouraging for the morale of the collector. I remember that there was a flame thrower guy in the early series of figures, but I honestly can’t remember his name. I think the show wanted to avoid him as much as possible. A kids show with heroes with guns or swords seemed okay the time, but I guess starting fires was crossing the line.
David Hingtgen Posted July 1, 2021 Posted July 1, 2021 Is that basically Beach Head, in pure black and a new head?

Scyla Posted July 6, 2021 Posted July 6, 2021 I think I need to buy an Alley Viper. It was one of the 4 or 5 GI Joe toys I had as a child. I hope it will be orange and blue.
Big s Posted July 7, 2021 Posted July 7, 2021 As a kid I liked some of those wild colors on action figures. As an adult I wouldn’t mind a more subdued style that could somehow stay true to the original

General Rasp Posted July 7, 2021 Posted July 7, 2021 Yep, no luck on my end. Unless I want to drive to Chiago ,about 5 to 6 hours, for a Viper. There is a store showing in-stock but that is it.
sh9000 Posted July 7, 2021 Author Posted July 7, 2021 I just wanted a spare Cobra Trooper. Oh well. I guess I’ll just order an extra Cobra Infantry and paint some parts black and give him some different guns. AHHH SHHHIT OUT OF LUCK.

sh9000 Posted July 7, 2021 Author Posted July 7, 2021 Thankfully I have at least 1 of every Classified figure that I want in this line so far. Skipped the Amazon Storm Shadow, 1st release Roadblock, the repaint, and the Target version.
sh9000 Posted July 7, 2021 Author Posted July 7, 2021 Got my spare Cobra Trooper! Cobra Trooper, Beach Head, and Roadblock are currently available. Firefly was available earlier.

Firefly was available earlier. Thanks for the heads up. Picked up a Cobra Trooper too. Was really hoping for a Cobra Viper as well.
