Very cool!  I look forward to reading it a little more closely later tonight...  and MAN I hope I can make it to the convention this year.  Awesome Exclusives!  I like the look of the new Cobra

[dawg99]

wow those exclusives look very cool indeed..
how would someone go about getting them if they can't make it to the convention..

Only available at the Convention - sorry.

Should any be left over (doubtful), then they'll be put up for sale here on the site.

thats awsome 5 and Back stop with a new look rock on.

I vote for exlusives being sold separately, not as a set so every one gets one.  Then again, do we know what the production run for the figures is?

100 of each - so, 500 exclusives in total.

Here's my dilemma:

There's a story... a mini-comic so to speak, that will be in next months newsletter.
That story, ties all of these exclusives together, and when you read it - you're going to be kinda annoyed if you don't get all 5.

We don't want to be left with 10 of one and none of the others either - only to have someone want the full set, but the sets sold out.

Back-stop and the "one not ready" will be the two most in demand over "baldy". It's obvious...  on this end.

So... ummm.. yeah.... Let me figure that out first. If it is a set, it will most likely be under $125 for the complete set - maybe as low as $100.00 even.

I really like the character art for the exclusive figures. Back-Stop looks better in the new colors. I had never heard of him until now.

[latinjoe22]

I'm guessing from the Art that Backstop's figure is a repainted 25th anniversary Serpentor. If that's the case, great job JoeCon. The idea is simple, yet who would've thought about turning Serpentor into Backstop? Two thumbs up again.

Baldy remains a mystery to me. I'm guessing that it's probably General Hawk who turned bald at age 60 and switched sides to Cobra when he found out they had a better retirement plan, and happens to be leading a HISS tank cavalry assault on the Persuader...hence the Irony. His quote on the filecard would go like this: "No Backstop, you do have a problem now: Yo-...uh I mean Let's go get 'im Men, CO-O-O-BRA-A-A-A!!!" :shifty:.

oh col a mini comic rock on. i say do a set. as every other yr it was a fig so to the first real con i say set. but i think you will need more lol.

Hahaha, that's hilarious! General Hawk says, "Screw fighting for our beliefs and the constitution! Cobra has a kick-ass retirement plan where I can spend the rest of my years at a resort in Sarasota, Florida! GO COBRA GO!"

[BHMike]

Oh no, they've figured it out!!
