@yojoebro82 Yeah, it's wild thinking back to that first few waves, isn't it? I overpaid for one on the secondary market, then picked this one up when they reissued her not even for reselling, just in case she broke! And then the cardback one came along and was super easy to get. Go figure.
I know Beachhead is still a little tough to get. I always wanted to get the blue-eyed variant but I felt like I was lucky to get one at all... and I 100% expect the one coming out soon will be my go-to anyway. I'll probably like him more.
@detectivehoag Crimson Asp could be fun to customize with this buck! I think I've actually got all the colors needed from my miniatures painting stuff if I try it. Though I bet they release her a year after I do a custom. I'm jinxed that way. If there's a character you hope a line releases, have me make a kitbash/custom figure and there's a 100% chance they announce a legit figure two weeks later. Happens every time.
@snake-eyes-8181 Yeah that would be great for the IG. A nice contrast of the flat black clothing versus a shiny black armour. They did that with Crimson Baroness so they can do it here as well (fingers crossed).
@prophet That soft goods duffle/duffel bag is so great. I can't wait to include it with the first release of Sgt. Slaughter so he even better matches up with the movie look.
I always did find it funny that the original Stinger had figures behind the missile because like you said it would melt their faces off when launching. I may have to track down the last ML Sentry figure that was released just to get the alternate "melting face" head to pop onto a trooper so I can have at least one trooper suffer an ignoble end with his face melting off.
I forgot I had a spare COIL still in the box as well (also LJ and Flint among a couple others I forget). I was debating opening it just to give the both bikes to my original Crimson Twins now that I have the CST.
@captaincracker Its supposed to be a Famazon. So Amazon, pulse and any etailer. Should be easier to get then the Vamp
@canprime That is what I am hoping. Tony said in one of the recent interviews that one of the new figures is a real banger and shiny. I am hoping the IG is what he was referring too
Whew. Good thing I went ahead and got those extra Valkryies I needed during the Power Sale. Guess they sold out as of now. Hopefully there is still some stock actually left over after the sale just in case people miss this sale.
@leor I'm glad I picked them up the first go around because I am only just now looking at the power sale and they are gone. Maybe there will be more stock, but I won't hold my breath.
Going to keep checking though because they usually add stuff over the course of the sale. Though I am tempted to get another Trouble Bubble (Canada never had them on sale).
Did they say during the stream when the new preorders would go up?
I grabbed a extra trubble bubble and Valkyries two this morning. I was actually hoping the fire team would have been part of it. I was considering picking it up
I debated on picking and Joes with the Power Days discount. I have enough. I have to keep telling myself as army building is something I have less control of. The Trubble Bubbles have no flight stand so I have to figure out their display (4 standard and 2 Python Patrol). I just know when standard are gone they will release another color of it. I got three Valkyrie sets. I want more in different colors so I passed on those. Lots of Grunts already modded. I’m just going to breath and hope they sell well for fans.
Thwipp!
I don't need another Jeep .... I don't need another Jeep... I don't need another Jeep... I don't need another Jeep
(maybe if I keep repeating it I'll eventually believe it and convince myself not to order a $100 vehicle I won't have room for...)
I consistently tell myself I'm going to start limiting to Joe purchases to just the stuff I really have a connection to - and then I see a leaked list I'm immediately - "gotta get ALL of that plus dupes of the army builders"... I'm sick y'all.
I grabbed a Trubble Bubble, because I couldn't afford when my preorder dropped, and I couldn't afford when they came back in stock awhile later, lol.
Didn't someone come up with a great flight stand solution? I know Can of Beams made an adaptor, but I thought someone here at least had a great one just by itself.
