Just came across this video by chance and then checked out the Joe photos on your instagram. Love the troop building. I never engaged in troop building until Classified. I bought multiples of the Cobra trooper and officer, Red Ninja, Viper, Alley Viper, and BAT figures. I also will use any extra heads provided on customized Marvel Legends figures. However, I have had to cut down to 2 or 3 of each of the Joe and Cobra troop builders since I am running out of space to display them in the various scenes I create. If you have the money and space go for it. The alternate head for Big Ben makes a great troop builder.

Great video. After three years Hasbro gives us a real Joe army builder. I never understood why they didn't just make a green-shirt figure. Its good to see a Joe trooper army. I was getting bored of all the pictures of massive Cobra trooper army's. By the way, where did you get your display turn table from? I've been meaning to get one.

I agree 100%! The Joes are definitely more known for the named characters, but having a good army on their side is icing on the cake. I got my rotating base from amazon, but I purchased a 12in ring light to put around the base just to make it pop a bit.

I cancelled my preorder for Grunt because he seemed to have a case of "Lt Falcon Syndrome", but his face doesn't look too bad in your review. I generally just get two of each army builder. I was gonna get five BATs, but the price went up from $20 to $25, so I reduced my order to three. If there's ever a sale, I might get a couple more. The figures I have the most duplicates of are the Black Series Hoth Rebel Soldier and Imperial Snowtrooper (four of each).

The price hikes even if it's just by a few bucks is definitely a bummer. It's crazy that these days sometimes $100 only gets you three figure.

Not trying to sound like a snob but the helmet doesn't actually have any battle damage to it. What you're seeing at the top and sides of the helmet is actually supposed to be Velcro.

Thank you! If you live on the the Eastern half of the country and you have an Ollies near you, I would say check there. You won't find anything recent, but you may luck out and find a deal on a few good characters. I've found Crimson Guard, Dusty, Stalker, Tomax, Xamot, Zarana and Sgt. Slaughter, not to mention the Snake Eyes movie figures all at crazy discounted prices. But your mileage may vary with discount stores like Ollies, Ross and Burlington. Other than that, I would just pop in to Targets and check the app regularly for new drops. Walmart is hit or miss for me. I also like shopping on Amazon and Entertainment Earth. They always have some deal you can capitalize on to lower the price on figures even if they're new. You can try BBTS as well, but I find that they price their figures a bit higher than msrp. You may luck out with a local comic book store, but you'll probably pay a bit more too. Gamestop is good for preorders and getting new figures for retail especially when they come out. I hope this helps! Thanks for watching!

I thought about an Army Build, but I'm actually building 2 Good Guy Army Teams; the G.I. Joe Team, and, a Sgt. Nick Fury Jr 'New Howling Commando's'. I am taking alternate Joe's, a few from the Snake Eyes movie, and a few Joe's I wasn't familiar with or that were more or less replaced. Grunt, was originally the Marine, but he was pretty much replaced by Gung Ho! As a result, I have moved Grunt to be in the Fury Team. In early drafts during the revival of G.I. Joe Hasbro did have plans to tie them in the Marvel Universe, led by the son of Nick Fury and there were plans for Destro to appear in Agents of SHIELD comics. Fury Jr eventually became Duke. I don't have a Nick Fury Jr yet, but so far I am Fudging; Movie Storm Shadow as Shinobi Movie Scarlet as Red Rose Movie Akiko as Akiko Alternate Roadblock who actually has the mini-gun as Blockade Desert Snake Eyes as The Asp 2 Headswapped Lady Jaye's as Half Sisters Rush (Amanda) the American, a Female Rambo, and Roulette (Tanya) from Ukraine, sophisticated Infiltration expert. Recondo as 'Croc' A(rthur) Dial Chuckles as Chuck Niles, Hawaiian P.I. and Grunt. So, a pretty good start. May get a Valaverse guy to be my Fury.

Ooh that's kind of tough. I'll split this up two ways for you. First I'll do top five army builders and then top five regular characters. In no particular order: Army Builders: Cobra Trooper/ Cobra Infantry Cobra B.A.T. Cobra Vipers Grunt/ Steel Corp Alley Vipers Named Characters: Serpentor Major Bludd Heavy Artillery Road Block Duke (Wave 1 Recolor) Cobra Island Beach Head The Army Builders are self explanatory, you'll need someone for your joes to fight, but if you had to prioritize try to save up for the Cobra Troopers and Infantry Troopers. They are a bit pricey now, but they aren't getting any cheaper and there is no sign of a restock. You'll have any easier time tracking down the Cobra B.A.T. Alley Vipers, and Grunts for retail right now. As for Cobra Vipers, the single card version is getting pricey, but you can get the Viper 3-pack right now on Amazon for well below retail. It's gone as low as $60. You could get a decent army gong at those prices. As for the named characters, Seprentor was a convention exclusive. He is one of the best characters in the line hands down. He retailed for about $90 before tax. If you could find him for around $100-$120 I'd say go for it. Wave 1 Duke and Cobra Island Beach Head are a bit rare these day. They both should be getting variants in the retro 6 inch line, but if you like the more updated classified looks than I would prioritize these. I think Cobra Island Major Bludd is a great figure and is starting to creep up in price. Heavy Artillery Road Block is also getting rare and is my favorite look for the character in the classified line so far. I doubt because ow classic he already s that he will get a retro release anytime soon. The other characters in the line aren't to hard to track dow., so if you're not trying to be a completist, which would be tough at this point, you'd probably be safe cherry picking the other characters you want later.

Hey this is my Grunt review! 😜 But you should definitely check out my review of the NECA Feral Predator if you haven't already! hanks for watching!

I'd rather see an army of Sci-Fi & Flash. Bring on the lasers! Oh wait! Hasbro hates Sci-Fi & won't make him. Shit characters like Kamikura, Bazooka & Big Lob are much more important.

I hope Hasbro leans into the more modern designs they were coming out with at the start of the classified line even if ti has to be its own sub-line. I really want the tattoo sleeved Storm Shadow with the bladed tech gauntlets. Hopefully getting characters like Helix is a sign of things to come!

I don't see the point of this and tons of people are looking for a figure as well! but hey its your money.

As long as you're enjoying what you're doing, that's the only point you need. Plus Grunt is still readily available now on Amazon and other online retailers so he's still ripe for the picking! Tanks for watching!

This is why my 9 year old (who's called Flint) cant get two of these guys.

Grunt is still readily available on Amazon or Hasbro Pulse at retail price. It may not be for $11.99, but if your son is still wants a couple of Grunts, I'm sure you can still make it happen.
