The first 5 GI JOE figures and the first 5 Cobra figures are to be sold in sets of 2.  After that, the balance of the figures will be sold individually.

Quote from: "Spillspleen"

Wonder if they will have their act together enough to include figure stands with all of these guys?


I suspect they will

There can be only one.  One true GIJoe that is!

about the canadian retailers. Silver Snail will most likely sell them, and i have an inside scoop that sears is thinking about supplying them.

about the new figures, they all rock. I am so pumped with all the new figures. BUT really there's just one new figure which kinda sucks (cobra commander v2, snake eyes v2, stormshadow v2, and cobra officer which is basically v2). It would have been nice to have the figures released before v2 ones started being announced. but it's all still so awesome

Thanks for the info savage.  I'm hoping these things see wide spread distribution so that we might actually see some competitive pricing in the great white north.

Repaints are already on their way?
A second cobra 5 pack has been announced and by the looks of it we'll get repaints:
Cobra Commander (Battle Dress), Storm Shadow (Dragon), Cobra Stinger Driver, Cobra Air Trooper, Cobra (the Enemy)
no pictures are available yet.

That is EXACTLY what I was hoping for. Now all we need to know is will Canada be getting these at the big retail stores. Please Hasbro, don't screw us out of these. We got most of the 15th anniversary stuff and that sold well enough.

I guess right now if I could ask Hasbro one question it would it be "What about Canada?"

I hate admitting that I want to buy something for the packaging, but i guess I do.

 I, like pete, can't get behind the crotch picees. They just don't look right on most of the figures. I may just limit myself to the snakeyes figures.

Honestly,
I plan on buying them - and carefully opening them all.

Then I'll stick the originals in the blister instead. ;-)
