Finally, a "must have" figure (IMO):



Good use of Destro legs. I like it.

I like that they've tied in a G.I. Joe Extreme figure into the G.I. Joe line now.  The only set left to tie in with a new sculpt is Sgt. Savage.

Based on the leaked list there are unfortunately about 5 or 6 figures I want. I say unfortunately because thiis means my chances of getting the likes of jynx and cover girl (the two I definitely want, along with every other collector) are basically gone. So my question is, is there any possibility that I can get AT LEAST my money back on the ones I don't want?

Which ones do folks think will be in most demand, besides the obvious cover girl and jynx?

As for the figures, overall they all look really nice. Even the ones I have no interest in (Iron Claw for example) look nice. I just wish they wouldn't be so darn expensive, particularly for Canadians.

Today's big reveal is......

a box:



Odd thing to reveal but OK, I guess it looks nice. It will look nice in my recycling bin when I throw it out as well.  ;)

On a side note, how many people are interested in this set? Is it worth trying to get a bulk order in?

If you don't mind the hassle of putting them on eBay, I'm absolutely sure you'll be able to at least get your money back.  As for me, the one (so far) I know I don't want I've already worked out a deal for  ;D

As for the big box reveal, it's a relief.  The boxes the Club used to send out the exclusive figures were just horrible.  Incredibly flimsy.  I'm extremely lucky my Dial-Tone arrived undamaged because the box it came in was pretty much destroyed!

The sad truth is the new box won't save the figures from our terrible postal service.
