The promo photos only have them holding the flashlights - didn't see a place other than Falcon's belt to store them.

Falcon’s belt is just from Range Viper and the loop is probably just there to hold the sai that the Viper came with. 

Speaking of which, my set came in today. Never thought we’d get Quarrel, but super happy with her. She’ll make a fine addition to the Action Force side shelf.

Trench viper with diorama is cool.  Sunbow SE and a polar bear is a must-have.  Viper is interesting; I might just buy one for his added range of articulation over the original.  I'm guessing he will strike me similarly to the Retro Cobra Trooper. 

On that note, I received Retro Trooper today from Amazon.  He's neat, but not a replacement for my older troopers.  Love his loadout, his articulation is very nice, but not my favorite Cobra Trooper.  Two things stand out to me about this figure:  His head looks huge (his helmet doesn't fit!), and his plastic limbs feel cheaper than usual for Classified.  Butterfly shoulder is stuck too on one arm.

CHRIST ON A CRACKER!!!!!!!!!

Well Classified came back hard and won the day with the reveals (sorry Ecto-1).

So renders:   

Footloose looks good.   Firefighter look great, and I love the packout.  Also nice touch for the 60th and being in NY.  Trench Viper with Cobra Perimeter........I mean WOW.   Trench Viper is a bit "meh" being mostly an Alley Viper repaint.  However that Perimeter with the modular option is great!!!   Sucks it will be a Pulse exclusive because it will limit availability and access.  I'll probably have to settle for 2.  And Snake Eyes with a POLAR BEAR!!!!!  F#$% YEAH!!!!   That is a great set and I can't wait for it to go up for preorder.  Now show us the other MASS offerings!!

 

Preorders:  

Retro Rock & Roll, Dr. Mindbender and Viper.   All look great.   I'll be picking up all 3 but most interested in R&R and Viper to compared them to the first releases.

 

Name only reveals:

Darklon.....we already had a bit of a reveal with the weapon leak.   Crystal Ball!?!?  Well Emily did say he will be somewhat different from the original so we'll see.   Snake Eyes V4....expected after Lenny's hints.

 

What is that vehicle tease at the end?  Any guesses?

So....   yeah....  how am I not going to army build some Polar Bears up in here?   I'm about to have a problem.   I'm going to buy so many damn Polar Bears - I won't know what to do with all the stupid extra Snake Eyes figures

I tuned in just in time for the Joe portion of the panel and loved every damn slide.

How can we get Classified to make a bear?

 

Glowing Snake Eyes pack-in.

I was close!  Only his hands will glow.

From what angle?  It kind of looks like a back tire cove/running board, but so much more detailed.  An AWE Striker seems inevitable, but this almost seems bigger.

Joe stuff looked good. Snake Eyes with Bear looked great, and that bear's articulated legs makes me angrier at the Hasbro Lockjaw. Retro Rock N Roll will be replacing the other one immediately.

Not really enthused about the whole "this isn't your classic Crystal Ball" because I don't trust their updating viewpoint. Raptor and SS v2 wildly missed the points. It's entirely too early to already want a retro Crystal Ball.

If it's 4 vents over some big back wheels, it's clearly the G.I. Joe Tank Car - the Tank/Car you can fit on your back.
