See, I must have been thinking about the 2nd series.  We have Blades, Quarrel (via the FSS), Gaucho (o-Ring), and Jammer (o-Ring).  Some are hard to portray as new characters (e.g. Snake Eyes = Stalker) though.

Who was in the first series if Hasbro repaints were in the second series?

Did not know about the 30-odd figs that you mentioned.

I got my Footloose last Wednesday or Thursday.  Good figure, puts the TRU version to shame.  After Claymore was announced, it was fairly obvious that we would see a Footloose fig at some point.

Thanks, I need to look into these.  I have a display cabinet and I like to say it is based on the PIT.  I have some props (oil cans, lockers, beds,etc.) and each level is a different theme, but it is really not a dio.  It is decent, but more of a display cabinet with some props.  Stuff like this could help.

Interesting, didn't realize it was that extensive.  Seemed like a shorter list on Yo Joe.  I always get confused between the different forces, Z-Force, Q-Force, etc.

I like them generally, but some I could do without.  For instance, Hunter.  I have debated using some of the dollar Joes to fill in the gaps (Duke = Moondancer, I believe), but there are other gaps in my collection I want to fill in first.

Yup, and we may be reaching diminishing returns with the Int'l figs....we have most of the Argen 7, a lot of the UK guys, Sparta.  We have Quarrel and TNT coming in the FSS.  Not sure what would be next.

I also just picked up a Dragonski custom b/c he was not in the main pack.  I hope he is not in the 2/3 packer.  I tend to doubt it though...those seem to be reserved for int'l figures based on the last couple.  That's a cool angle to get the int'l figs out.

I thought that too, but we will see.  Funny enough, I just commissioned a set of Joe Artic troopers - Frostbite, Blizzard, Iceberg, Windchill and Cold Front......think that is all of them.....so I sort of don't want to see them in the set.  I tend to think it would not be the first 3.  Those are iconic characters and I think collectors would be pissed if they were relegated to a 2 or 3 pack.  I could see it for more obscure characters like the last too.

Man, that Charbroil is totally bad ass.  Love the helmet / head combo.  1,000% better than the dopey Hasbro version (and I was happy to get that one at the time).

Hi, I am looking for the WWE Build 'N Brawl Ring.  Specifically, I am looking for the Toys R Us edition, which came with 2 figures.  One is John Cena and I believe the second is Triple H.  Make by JAKKS.  The ring is apparently larger than the other version.  Building a training dio and it would be a great accessory for it.  Thanks.

that's usually one in the box set. i'd assume the Iron Grenadier and Voltar filled that niche.

Actually, I believe the figure has to be a Joe, so if that is true (and I'm not 100%) than technically OG or IG would not count.

If that is the case, I wonder who would make sense.  You have to figure someone that is an easy repaint, but is sought by Collectors.

Maybe, Maurauder versions of Footloose (very easy) and Mutt and Junkyard.......total guess.....I know nothing.

Thanks, Scramble and likewise.  See you in a few months.  Baseball and Joes, can't go wrong with that.
