I agree with everything you said about Zandar and SAW Viper, really enjoying those figures, Leatherneck didn't really stand out in anyway for me. Possibly becuase I never had him in the 3.75 when I was a kid.  Nothing wrong with the figure at all, he just didn't POP for me.  I am still waiting on Dialtone,  I had my order with Amazon cancelled, and I am still waiting on Walmart to give me a shipping date.

Amazon sucks for pre-ordering - Dial Tone was the 4th figure that I pre ordered, and that they canceled after the shipping date.

Got my SAW Viper and Zandar yesterday.  Oh and thanks Amazon delivery guy for leaving it on the edge of my porch in the wet area while it was raining.  All you had to do was put it in another 2 feet and it would not be affected by the weather.   Thankfully I was home and got it within 10 minutes of delivery.

Oh and another big thanks to the Amazon employee who put them in a plain envelope with no padding.  I don't know how the boxes arrived with minor dings, but thankfully they did arrive in good condition.

I have to say that the SAW Viper is definitely a little on the small side, but I guess that is coming from the idea of the SAW Viper in the comic be a badass who killed a bunch of Joes.   I mean it is an army builder and they could be any height so why does he necessarily have to be a big guy like Roadblock?   I guess because of the equipment he has to carry?  Either way a good Classified version of the original.

Zandar is great.  Again another good Classified version of the original.  I like the darker colours and more updated vest.  I'm sure they'll get around to a more classic ARAH Retro card version eventually.   We are getting close to finishing the original line up of Dreadnoks.  Just need Monkeywrench (already confirmed), Zanzibar and Thrasher.

I think Thrasher will come with the Thunder Machine (evenutally).   Zanzibar probably won't come with his skiff.  I would love it if they did make him with his skiff, but I don't see it being popular enough to warrant a high priced release compared to just a single figure release. 

Did you ordered Crystal Balls? I'm not a big fan of him (I don't have his vintage version). But he looks good... so I ordered him.

Yep.  I am all in on Classified as my main toy line I collect.   So I had to get Crystal Ball.   Not to mention he is a great looking figure.

Just a heads up for anyone looking for a Classified Zandar.  He is back in stock on Amazon.ca as of this post.

I just got Serpentor, fluffy, ramar and duke. Serpentor and the fluffy are very nice. The other two are ok. My reaction collection is growing... With toysrus liquidating I was able to stock up on the sailors. Nice addition to my tactical battle station.

So what did everyone think of today's fan stream?

I enjoyed the cosplay by Lenny, Emily and Tony.   Also liked the surprise of the MMS w/Colonel Hawk.   Everything else was either already seen, or leaks spoiled their reveal.   Still it was a good stream and I was glad to see how truly big the SNAKE Armour is going to be (I ordered 2).

Overall nice to see the OG Classified team back streaming, even if it is just this one time.

Just saw Crystal Ball.  Man, this actually looks really good.  I am getting a Vincent Price vibe with this one.
