G.I. Joe was in its hayday when I was a child, so I missed most of the GI Joe Cartoon. Such a bummer, I grew up liking whatever was left of GI Joe. Not to mention the cartoon only played at 5am on the weekends. Hard to wake up that early.

I was pumped for this line until the exclusives took the wind out of my sails. I didn't have access to the locations all the exclusives were going to so that killed the line for me. They all look amazing together though. Great collection

Yeah, I have really enjoyed the line and I am a forever positive fan, but I admit the last two years have been rough. I think we all have gone through every emotion possible with this line. It seems like getting the figures have been easier since the Target restock last year. Slow, but easier.

I've just started collecting them, and it was smooth sailing until the Cobra Island Target exclusives. I simply cannot find them at retail price anywhere, not even through Target. I'd be more than happy to purchase them loose, but collectors are hell-bent on trying to resell loose figures at retail or above.

I literally am beholding how long has the line gone so far, yes it had some very unnecessary troubles but it seems to be going good really. Seeing how you gathered most of the figures here it puts a smile to my heart, just seeing most of these figures, sorta comparing them with each other, wondering which ones i want to find someday, which ones I'll pass and so on. One thing is for sure, i won't be getting all of them and i don't neither expect to find the ones i want to find easier, but within time and preference i would love to see how my desired G.I.

I have NEVER seen a Major Blood or Break in store. I only randomly found 1 BBQ and that was recently. It had an imperfect box, but I got it since I knew I probably wouldn't find another one. I almost never find any Joe's in stores except the same couple that no one wants, and this goes back to the beginning.

I have had to order most of them from the internet. The movie figures, CC, Flint, Lady Jaye, & Major Bludd are the only figures I have seen randomly in store.

Alley Viper was my favorite as a Kid, It's the only one I have now :D.

I just wish this line had went for classic designs instead of the style they chose. With Super 7 doing the cartoon designs that will be what I collect, but I'd love to get these if they had not strayed so far from the OG designs, but I realize a lot of folks want updated looks so I guess there are lines for each collector.

I would call the gold head destro as pimpin Destro. Road block is huge like the original road pig . I remember how big road pig was compared to the rest Zanzibar was also a big figure but road pig dwarfed them all. He was bigger than my refrigerator perry and Sargent Slaughter.

For one thing the Snake Eyes movie figures were ready for release, but the movie was delayed and so the figures were also delayed. A few other shipping and convention delays caused a couple figures to be out of their intended order. With the virus and a new line, it was unfortunately a perfect storm. I think the line has done wry well considering everything it went through.

Sorry, I didn't mean to be THAT guy lol. Destro was definitely just a running change but I'm not sure what Snake Eyes was considered. The change seemed to happen at the same time as the other field variants so I lumped him in with them. It's not like they could really change his color scheme.

@MacDowin

2 жыл бұрын

No bots. I put in the work. Also, not all figures were on shelf. Amazon & Pulse exclusives don't make it to a shelf. I bought Firefly on eBay, but I never should have as he was easily available later from Targets website summer of 2021. I bought Viper v1, Baroness v1, Major Bludd, Akiko box v2, Zartan v1, Cobra Infantry from brick stores. Several of those I stood outside and waited for the store to open. All the rest were purchased online. Even though we all hate pre-orders at this point, I did pre-order most all of them. I usually place pre-orders in multiple locations. Hasbro Pulse is where I order everything because they will send them out, even crazy late. I also order from Amazon as soon as pre-orders go live. I usually have the links ready a few minutes before hand. If they are exclusives, I order from those websites. I won't lie, collecting this line has been stressful at times, but it really has been easy to get all the figures. If you have patience this line is really fun. Even the Amazon exclusives pop in and out of stock. Good luck on the hunt. It will just get easier from here on.

Thus line is awesome. But too many repeat figure.

It’s a fun side figure. Def not a serious mainline figure and not for everyone. It was probably made because they could reuse the Destro build, the designers were having fun for an exclusive, and it was a Classified update of the original ‘90s figure.
