Sounds like they might have learned from last years blunder and given us the Red Shadows set (hopefully). Also, Brian Savage made a comment on the MC board saying something along the lines that due to mold problems one of the figures had to be changed 4 times. This pretty much confirms they are going back to the "O" ring style this year.
Might as well start adding the figures are they show up:

Last year was my last chance to get my old fashioned o-ring style Joe before it was really over. Now, it start again ::)
Would it be O-Ring or not, would it be a great set or a remake, ... I think I will stop guessing and just wait until I see an official picture :-X.

I think there are legal loopholes prohibiting the Club or Hasbro from using the "classic" Red Shadows. Maybe the Devil's Due reinterpretation, though.
I would love to see a set based on the DD Shadows. It would be interesting to see how that set would be filled out.

well The shadows are old, but the DD version is newer, definitely a foreign connection and no blue in their outfits. Of course this is mere speculation, and holds as much water as TF fans wondering if the "Lost generation" means G2, transtech or even Go-bots.
But as far as O-rings go, I thought they said that Big Lob would be the last o-ring figure they would be releasing thru the club?

Cobra Interrogator is first on the list. So I highly doubt this would have any thing to do with Red Shadows. I suspect the Plague instead.

While the original Interrogator had a relatively small head ( but cool enough to use for a custom BAT ), the only improvement that this figure needs is an accurately proportioned head.
I'm hoping that some of the figures will be first-time character renditions like 2007' Claymore (who appeared in The Traitor Gi joe 2 part episodes).

I'm in the same boat. Work is crazy then(April/May) and no time off. June/July is easier to schedule a few days off. Cool sounding set though unlike last year. They must have been listening to the fans.

Even though they are not perfect, I have no problem with the new style. However, I find it hard to justify playing that much coin for new style figures when other deco versions of the exact figures were sold recently at retail stores for a fraction of the cost. If I am going to pony up that much coin, I might as well get something considered to be rare nowadays in the hobby, which is o-ring figures.
Post by: martin-montreal on February 11, 2010, 10:54:48 PM
Red torches is a nice addition when The Black Major looks exactly what he is supposed to look. So far, I can't say the Club is making bad choices. Moreover, they are making smart (Red Shadows), coherent (Balck Major) and innovative (Torches) choice.
I can't wait to get my set! ;D

Do you really want me to sabotage its sale by speculating against the new figure ??? I don't need to do that. I'm confident that the ones who will buy it will decide of its fate :).
I'm still optimistic about the rest of the figures look like. I know that not beeing impressed by one figure or two is not a good enough reason not to get the set.
I kind of like the Torch figure, looks interesting, especially the head I haven't seen it anywhere. Were the original red shadows troopers the same red as this one? My only comment is I find it a bit too saturated to the point it's almost flashy on my screen, but perhaps GIJCC is trying to match the original color palette of the vintage figures. Martin-Mtl, knowing that you own the original red shadows figure, what can you tell us about the color?

It's hard to tell because my computer screen doesn't reflect the real color. The red in the pic I saw looks, like you said, i little bit flashy.
But Cobra troops already have different shade of blue (starting with Cobra commander light blue and darker blue outfit). So I don't really bother with this red :wink:.

The only GIJCC set I don't have is last years, mostly because it was the new style. And considering the club has gone back to o-ring (for at least this year), I can assume that the new style in 2009 failed for GIJCC, regardless if they re-hashed an old convention concept.
Even though they are not perfect, I have no problem with the new style.

Totally agree with you on this. Already just for the Red Shadows and Black Major, I find this set worth getting. While the torches are nice additions too, I wish there were just less of them and more Red Shadows.
It's a good thing they're not developping a storyline tied in with the set, involving something like Joes beeing extinct in the future, and General Flag IV resorting to DNA technology to clone 6 Warrant Officier Flints to be able to face the resurfacing Red Shadows menace ;D. Now that would be something I hope never to see...

Muton http://www.bloodforthebaron.com/toys/00 ... index.html (http://www.bloodforthebaron.com/toys/002/redshadows/009/index.html)
Skeletron http://www.bloodforthebaron.com/toys/00 ... index.html (http://www.bloodforthebaron.com/toys/002/redshadows/015/index.html)
Muton would be my choice, only if his deep sea helmet comes off. Otherwise, Kraken and Skeletron are too weird for my taste.
Skeletron = :lol: I suspect this figure was made due to Skeletor from MOTU at this time.

I think the RED TORCHES is a nice new addition to the RED SHADOW ranks , but I do think , that if they sported the original head ( same as the regular infantry troopers ) it would have been more acceptable. In the original comics we would see Divers and such many time, their clothes would be different but the head would either be the same or very close, with only a few variations to themYeah, that's true. I also don't see why the Red Shadows would even need specialized flamethrower troopers... If memory serves, regular Shadows used flamethrowers just fine in the old comics (Jamar or the Baron can correct me on this if I'm wrong).
but in any case Im siked about this set
It is kinda cool that they managed to use the BTR Shadow-Viper head for something, though.
IMO Red Shadow divers with the recasted Shad head on a classic diver body would've been a nicer addition to the set.
Post by: The Baron on February 23, 2010, 06:33:12 PM
However, there were tons of artist-created spin offs; Shad divers, Shad canoes, Shad submarines, Space Shads, Shad moonbuggy, Shad moonbase, Shad Helicopters, etc etc
There were also some Cobra designs, particuarly in the finale epic Operation Deep Cover. There's a scene with a Cobra pilot in an A10 Thunderbolt which I believe predates the Rattler.
OK, I'll stop now.
Post by: Jay on February 23, 2010, 10:27:58 PM

As I say, there are plenty of homeomade Shadow troopers in the comic pages, so I wouldn't rule it out, I just can't remember one offhand.
The Shadows had repaints of the SNAKE, HAL and HISS, but really the club can take any vehicle mould and recast it in red...
Post by: morgardee on February 24, 2010, 08:56:11 AM
It's almost a shame they used the Hiss V2 a few years back. That would have been cool to see done in red.
Then again, they already re-used the crimson theme and if I suspect they might use the Vamp (again) then it might be possible they use the Hiss V2 one more time. I'd welcome it.

That art screams Falcon yet the label says Flint...

Flint looks too confident he can take all the Red Shadows. And his shotgun is not match for those Red Shadow's submachine guns. I'd say he's fried if he's not able to find a bigger tree to hide because he's going to get torched alive if he gives out his position...
And agreed, Flint looks more like Falcon on the art box.
Really Redmao, you think it's an Imperial Bunker repaint in the background? ;D Never thought of that.

Look at the line at Interrogator's feet.

But yeah, Flint isn't hiding. He's got them right where he wants them.

If it's not this, it's pretty close to it
Do you think we should already say good bye to the Escape armor...?

LOL man, ever since you pointed this out I noticed something else too. Look at the Black Major. Looks to me like he saw through Flint's evil plan...but will he alert Interrogator in time?
