Six thoughts.
1. Wow, you out did yourself on this one. Spreechless
2. Head sculpt = Great! Armor = Fantastic.
3. This may be "The Set", even more so than 2009 b/c of Black Ice, Joe Canuck and the Chromed Up Scout.....plus 1 mystery vehicle.....tough call.
4. 2013 = Snowbank, please
5. Glad I got one of the pre - orders.
6. This rocks
-
All I can say is ... wow! This set is definitely going to be hard to beat. Awesome job, guys!
-
Holy mother of pearl. So pretty, so so pretty.
-
Cellphone pictures didn't do this figure justice.
I haven't been this excited about our Canadian Joe Con set since 2009 with the HATE and second Back-Stop figure.
-
Wonderful. Just wonderful.
-
Congratulation, this figure looks perfect. A lot of people, including me, will be happy with this Canadian exclusive!
The conset is crazy this year! Hard to believe there still one vehicle to show.
I do not recognize the armor, someone can help?
-
you cheeky bastards.
-
I guess olyeller called it. I thought you would have saved him for next year...
-
After seeing Joe Canuck was back, I called Black Ice to Pdaat the other day!
-
Man, this is a killer Con set roster.
-
will admit to being a bit disappointed there's no new Joes, but the set is still primo.
-
ok this blew me away, I love this updated version! Cant wait to get it!
This set definatly is on the level of the original HATE set.
-
Aaaah, darn you. I'd been raking over the coals trying to think of the perfect parts combo to make a modern era Black Ice. I finally thought I had some progress when I picked up a casted Crimson Horseman head, and then you guys reveal this...
(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

My first reaction when I saw this figure was HOLY $#!][ ! :o It takes alot to catch me offguard regarding expectations, but this figure blows my mind. I am amazed at how good he looks. Looking forward to getting this set in my hands.
This is truly the only figure that can cancel out my disappointment of not receiving another Canucklehead.
Here's hoping that at least the second vehicle is going to be for the good guys.

It looks like the Battler Armour Shipwreck wore in the V v V line when he was dressed up as Cobra Commander and came with the mountain playset. The part that throws me off is the Cobra logo in the middle. From what I recall it didn't have a Cobra logo on it, so while I think I'm close, I also think I'm wrong. Still, look at the Valor vs Venom line. I swear it from someone in that line.
Now where is the head from? :-\
-
Custom head? I think Mike said there were 2 new sculpted heads in the set.

Agreed Black Ice looks awesome. The figure will look great on display with the H.A.T.E. Tank.

If they're dipping into the new sculpt era for parts, then perhaps it is the Spy Troops Copperhead chest plate that came with Sgt. Airborne?

This is totally awesome!!!! too bad i wont be able to attend to get this set. So far it is definitely ranking up there with the 2009 HATE set as the best.
-
It's so awesome!
-
I H.A.T.E. everything about this set ;D Can't wait to see what the second vehicle will be!
-
I was hoping for a Snowbank, b/c I am more of Joe collector, but Black Ice was my #2 pick. Hoperfully Snowbank will be a 2013 event.
-
WOW!!!
Just WOW!!!

I'm still not sold on that idea. Just because it's a custom cast head doesn't mean it's a new brand new sculpt. That Joe Canuck Head looks like the master was Beachhead with goggles on it when it was cast. This head doesn't even have to be a G.I. Joe piece. It could be a cast Star Wars head or something like that.
Either way it does tie together well.
-
I just know that I like it. :)
-
This head is a 100% BRAND NEW head sculpted from profile images drawn by our own Jason Loo.
-
this set looks amazing, you guys really went all out this year, cant wait to get my set.

Kudos to Jason and your sculpter...love to find out who did that one.

Now that is very cool, and it sort of brings everything full circle. Loop did the first Joe Canuck.
Very cool.
-
Absolutely fantastic!! Can't emphasize that enough!
-
great works guys!
-
So, what's next ?? Possibilities............
1. 2nd Vehicle + Blueprint
2. Is there a 2nd head for Joe Canuck? Thought someone said that......though I could be wrong
3. Joe Canuck's other accessory? Jacket? Joe Flag?
4. Filecards for Black Ice and Joe Canuck?
5. Packaging
6. Mystery guest?

I have an extra ammo belt from 25th Rock 'n Roll, i think that will be perfect for M. Canuck!
-
Good point on the ammo belt........I have a bunch of those.
