It's time to talk about some HIYA G.I. Joe!  (Especially since it's the ONLY option for 1:18 Joe collectors right now.)

So far only Snake Eyes & Storm Shadow have been released with Beach Head, Cobra Commander, Flint, and Firefly coming down the road.  Sadly, these are not consistently available in the U.S.-- even via Hasbro Pulse.

Is anyone out there snagging these?  What do you think?

Is there a good way to get them over here in the States? With them making Flint and Lady Jaye I am now tempted to check this line out.

I'm still puzzled as to why Pulse isn't offering these on their site as a US exclusive.  I'd love to get these guys but paying $25+ BEFORE international shipping is a bit much.  There was a US site I found that had preorders but the numbers were SUPER limited on the first two and I missed both Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow.  

I can buy Robocop, Predator, Judge Dredd, and Aliens from multiple US retailers but apparently it's too much to expect REAL AMERICAN HEROES to be made readily available in the States.  (Especially when Hasbro isn't doing ANYTHING with that scale right now.)

It is strange. I would have thought the market for Joes outside of the States was big enough for someone to go after the license but it looks like I am wrong.

@superdoug55 I believe Super7 has the 3.75 US Distribution license for GIJoe right now if I'm not mistaken.

Major Bludd might be my favorite so far.  Also, looks like SmallJoes.com is starting to carry these.

Yeah, that's the one I gotta-gotta have.  I'd like to scrounge StormShadow up somewhere but that ship has sailed and sunk, I fear.  Now I'M OUT FOR BLUDD.
