Title: SDCC - GI JOE Exclusive figure PDD

One word sums up my feelings: lame.  I am not digging this figure.  What's next.  Yellow and Blue Funskool Bludd because Lane doesn't have one in his collection.   

But I hope it comes with art work.  That may make this figure more interesting.

Yeah it's weak, but I still want one. No idea why. Maybe I'll buy 2 cobra 5 backs and make a Baroness to match.

Yes! Disapprove, scowl, nay-say. The less competition, the easier it will be to snag one.

Not that I'm counting or anything but my predictions are 4 for 4. :shifty:

It is pretty lame but I am going because I live a few blocks away from where it is held if anybody wants one (Im going to try to take a friend so they can get the 5 of each too). Im just not digging the new sculpts at all really. The crotch piece still looks a little funny...

I wanted to go to comic con but there is no way my job is letting me go. I would love to send you a money order or a cashier check for the for the two Destro's figures. Let me know if you still want to do this. Thanks

I agree the diaper makes Destro look like Geezer Daddy Destro.

But I still need one as I am a completist.  I am willing to buy an extra one off you.  And plus, I may do Mike's idea of opening it up carefully and putting the original version in it's place.

I'm not that crazy over it...but at the same time, it may feel cool to own one.

Well, my email address is dryhawk37@hotmail.com for those interested. Im not sure on the limit of them but Ill get as many as I can (will have some friends come with me and get the limit too) so I could end up with as many as 20 of each depending on the cost. Just let me know and Ill start keeping a count on who wants them.

No!!!!!!!!!!
The marvel showdown figures were way to fragile!
Lets hope that the new Joes will be more tough.

I have saved all emails in my inbox but havent replied yet. I kept them in order and will do my best to get what each of you asked for. If you didnt get a response from me yet dont worry, nobody has. I just want to keep them "unread" so I can locate them when the time comes.

Im going to go on Sunday so I could possibly buy more (it will be hell in there on Fri/Sat)

Well, I have failed you all.........The lines were out of control and you had to wait in a line to get a ticket to maybe stand in line to get a sold out figure. For all of you who I was trying for, I was only able to get 3 of each and those were the first three spoken for (to friends at the show who couldnt even get them). Sorry for all the disappointment but I did try (Was there twice on Thursday and waited in lines for over 4 hours).

I read on line that there was no limit on how many people could buy so they went fast. Thanks for trying. How much were they anyhow?
