@unclassified ah, lucky! I got one this month and it was the first version. The only reason I care is I wanted to take the gauntlets off but it's cool as is. But yeah, I knew it was a possibility only because I saw a review that mentioned it thefigureinquestion.com.

I wasn't aware of this. Just heard these are showing back up at Ross. Dude I believe is in Cali just got this and four kamakuras. I came down with a cold or something so my plans to go out to ross this weekend got ruined.

@unclassified Ugh. I never find anything I want at Ross, but... that's so tempting.

Also, I'm just now getting over whatever the hell I've had for a month now. Coughing mostly, but I hope you didn't catch it from me.

I wouldn't mind Kamakura from Ross. I like his design.

I’m watching the tracking for Walmart looking forward to Quarrel and Falcon pack delivering today. Hopefully…

Thwipp!

Freaking Gridiron Studios .... They make one of the dumbest/coolest vehicles even more dumb and cool. Love it. It's such a great idea.

Warning, the gun placement could make this offensive to some.  😆 


 

 

 

I can't believe that nowhere in this post are the words Wokka Wokka.

I'm in a real dilemma with my Joes.  They are now in their second home in my house after outgrowing the first and have outgrown those shelves too with no more room for expansion in that area.  Meanwhile the snipers, parachute guys, Falcon & Quarrel, and Starduster are sitting on my coffee table in a makeshift homeless camp and the Dragonfly looms in label created status.

A few years ago I could have never imagined this problematic bounty of 6" Joes but here it is.  It may be time to downsize Star Wars, which I have mostly stopped collecting.

this is the way.

 

This is the way...

On the serious side, Classified has expanded so quickly, I'm running out of space and I'm behind.

So I just saw an interesting video from Youtuber Ironken 3000. Mostly because it was an interesting notion that we have talked about before.

Could the new Oversize model for ML, and the fact they are now doing a comparable Sentinel (to the Haslab), mean Classified might try their hand at something similar?

So maybe a no frills HISS could get made and be released as a made to order vehicle at a higher price point ($175-$200)?

How likely do you think it is? Could they also try this model for bigger vehicles like say the Thunder Machine or Snow Cat?

I'm intrigued to see what the aftermarket will be like for the Haslab Sentinel after the X-Men 97 Sentinel has been out for a while. Will it stay strong? Will it drop in price? Could the same happen for the Haslab HISS if they try the same type of thing in Classified?

I didn't have any version of Snake Eyes growing up. But I did have the hooded version of Cobra Commander, and the armored version. I don't think I had alternate versions of anyone else except Commander. So naturally, I'm gonna need this version in Classified.

That some serious disrespect to a comic genius. That's a crime against humanity.

I haven't seen a side by side between the two to tell the difference, so I'm not sure if the 97 Sentinel shares any parts, or has all new stuff.  I could see a HISS with no lights, no side missiles, no moving tread, only the one flip up canopy, one driver figure, and only the two main guns on the turret. I'd be down. I think there is enough versions in the past to pick a color scheme that seperates it from the Haslab enough the the Haslab Hiss stands out enough on it's own to still make it special.

I’m pretty sure Thunder Machine is coming 2025. As a preorder or a made to order, we’ll see. I can see since Classified is doing so well with Haslab they are going to see that be the vehicle for these big projects and other brands will be trying the made to order. Less Haslabs in 2025. Hasbro wants big bang for their production buck. 

Thwipp!

Thrasher is a given with the Thunder Machine, but would they do Monkeywrench that way? Zanya?

Yeah riss is a gamble for me. I literally live no where's near one so have to travel.but all the ross stores are 20 minutes from eachother. So I make a trip and usually score something.

I’m all for less Haslabs with Joe vehicles and unneeded electronics that boost the price higher.  Keep things sub $200. 

As for Haslab Sentinel devaluing due to 97 Sentinel, I don’t know. Doesn’t the Haslab Sentinel double as Master Mold? I’d just keep him as Master Mold and pretend he’s pumping out all those 97 Sentinels.
