Mutt & Junkyard has been released in Canada.  Bought one at my local EB today in Markham.  I was originally there to pick up a General Hawk.

If a Snowcat is made, I will jump on that one.  One of my favorite vehicles as a kid.

Hope you all have a happy new year.

My 2023 sucked because my Mum was diagnosed as terminally ill in October 22 and died in April. A brain tumour she'd had twice before came back and it wasn't third time lucky.

Damn.  Sorry to hear this.  My condolences.

AI.  Give Cobra Commander a throne.  I almost lost it last night with that one.

Is not even a forum.  The message boards were killed a while aback.

Officially at 12PM PST, myself and the volunteer team of YoJoe.com have resigned and no longer have any relationship with Vertical Scope. 

Due to their plans to turn the site into nothing but a forum, and do something similar to the database content, YoJoe.com no longer belongs to the G.I.Joe community at large. 

I have fought for nearly three years, doing everything from trying to repair the site, to outright buying it with the help from some in the community, there is simply no way that we can pay what they are asking. 

I encourage the development of some type of alternative database be constructed by the community, for the community, in the same way that YoJoe.com has, for the past 23 years. 

I personally have now lost 15 years of work, 15 years of my life is gone, taken by a Canadian technocrat who eats up thousands forums and websites of every imaginable type, strictly to absorb the ad revenue. The owner of Vertical Scope moved from Canada to the Caribbean, where they run the company from the beach. 

It was fun while it lasted.

Is there an online checklist of all the Classified figures released?  I am not going full hardcore on collecting these and only buying figures that look "cool" and available in local retailers.   

I reference this site
https://www.actionfigure411.com/gijoe/classified-visual-guide.php

This will do.  And holy crap, I am way behind.  I really don't want to use ebay in this day of age as paying for shipping is beyond brutal. Looks like I will have to in order to get Snow Job.

You're best bet is probably Yojoe.com or 3DJoes.com.

They seem to be the best sites for comprehensive lists/pics/collections of Joe product.

There is nothing in regards to Classified figures on either Site.  The new owners of yojoe.com have ruined this Site.

Do we have Ross in Canada?

No.  I have only noted this retailer in the USA.
