I keep saying I don't need modern Joe figures to be carbon copies of their 80's looks, but Tele Viper was my first GI Joe and I love the red letters across his goggles that this will be a pick up. I also like Cover Girl. I was not into Slice and Dice back in the day but they look nicely updated, I may pick them up. I was never a Darklon fan and I'm still not. That outfit was gaudy in 3.75" and it's gaudy in 6". SNAKE armor looks awesome. I'm guessing is oversized for 6" figures and is should really kick some @$$ displayed with vintage figures.

The potential of gaudiness is like 73% of the reason I'm into this line.
Love love love all the reveals. And that sledgehammer with Cover Girl gets us one step closer to Tollbooth. I love this line.
Wish Classified render reveal pics would list the character names. It's hard to tell who is who for the non-longtime fans.
Was a release window given for Cover Girl? Definitely want to grab her.
Wow. I want alot more then I thought i would. Definitely down for Flint and Cover Girl. Ill display both as different characters or something maybe. And Slice and Dice look really fun so I'll probably grab them.
I'd have to imagine the SNAKE pilot would be in a seated position inside. We aren't seeing the depth of this thing, just the height and width. I could see it being possible. Otherwise, what's the point of making it? A big robot isn't that appealing. Then again, we've all bought Hulkbuster armors that don't fit another Iron Man figure inside...
What if they go the Hulkbuster route and just make it so you can take the head off a figure and put it in the SNAKE armour rather than having to fit the whole figure inside?
Granted there are too many different shapes of holes for heads in the line. So only a certain number of figure heads would fit, but they have been more consistent in recent years so maybe???

Cover Girl (sledge hammer babe)
Flint
Tele Viper
I had a three paragraph "Lazy Hasbro" rant all typed up regarding the misspelling of "What the....?" on the Tele Viper's visor but I did some research and it turns out it's episode specific. I apologize, Hasbro, I'm the a-hole.
(Just kidding about the three paragraph rant.......or WAS I????)
Was it mentioned when these reveals we’re going up for preorder?
I can't see the image, but "THA" definitely bugs me. I know I'll never use that head, even if it's accurate to something.I had a three paragraph "Lazy Hasbro" rant all typed up regarding the misspelling of "What the....?" on the Tele Viper's visor but I did some research and it turns out it's episode specific.

Someone on Reddit used the flame effect to guess how big the SNAKE will be.
That's pretty much what I imagined, probably even bigger than I imagined, in order to fit a figure inside. If it's going to be that big, it better fit a pilot! Otherwise, what's the point? I'm just afraid of how limited the articulation appears to be. Look at those shoulders. Are they just gonna be swivels? I know Mark from the Transformers team worked on this piece, maybe he was able to employ some of the genius articulation Transformers use to get wider range of motion.
