I hope they release Stalker as a single card. I'm not into TF so that has no interest for me but I want that Stalker.

Watched the hasbropulse video on the skystriker unboxing. It looks excellent. Can't wait. Wish I had the money for 2.

They mentioned in the video future release of a joe troop builder pack. I'm a little confused if this is classified or o-ring? it was the comment from Lenny about the troops in the pack be able to handle land and sky and Emily saying what a nice tie in to the skystriker. Its only a good tie in if its o-ring. But then she said the second classified anouncement for today... so then I think its classified.

getting closer...squeeeeeeell!

And one more nice touch.

The cardboard packing holding the figures and support vehicles has printing on it, so when you open it up it makes a runway for the Skystriker!!!!!

Love these little touches.  Great work Joe Team.

Where did you see this? I love that idea although mine will be set up either at work in my office or packaged away till Christmas each year when I break out the Flagg.

Simply:
1. more o-rings at a more reasonable price (obviously there a a lot of issues that would need to be addressed for this to happen)
2. official reproduction pieces from hasbro to replace damaged/missing or broken pieces of my vintage vehicles.
3. haslab killer whale or a slighly larger rattler (always a tad to small) for o-ring
4. O-ring Dr. Venom (this guy was way better then Mindbender)
5. The missing deck crew from the last tier skystriker haslab  to be made into a 5 pack. (seriously 2 new heads are all that is needed and you could literally make a crap ton of figures in different shirt colours and skin tones.)

Sadly, I think only number 3 and maybe 5 as a possibility.

For the classified 6" series I wish for everyone else to simply find what they are looking for in store.

belated Merry Christmas!

I ended up picking up a few $10 joes at my favourite local toy shop. Lifeline, Spearhead, and Firefly.
 Nobody had any gear and some had the ol broken crotch but that's ok as they fit in perfectly with my childhood joes. Lifeline in particular has been one of those guys that I have wanted since he was first released. I don't know why I just did.

Here's to 2023 :)

Agreed. No way that mild is a one-time use. Still probably run you $75

I picked up Serpentor w/Air Chariot yesterday at Gamestop.

The $132Cdn (after tax) price was not fun.

However it is an amazing set, and the Joe team did a great job with him.  The size, colours, and details are all outstanding.  Plus he is absolutely massive.  Serpentor has to be the tallest Classified figure to date.  He towers over Gung Ho and Roadblock. 

The details of the sculpt are great, and the cape has a scaly look sewn into it, not just printed on.  The accessories are also wonderful with a lot of nice touches and nods to the cartoon. 

Overall it is a great set, but the pricing is worrying for future releases, especially the Trouble Bubble w/Televiper next year.

Good gravy! I hope you guys all have good paying jobs. Glad for you that its amazing at least.
