More patches!!! We need more patches!!! Who needs cool figures when we can have more patches... ugh... yes, i did support it and get a rattler. But patches... ugh
I wish they would at the very least least do them as Morale patches, with velcro backing. & they could be add & swap them them right into a collection, on panels, a pack, car roof interior, etc. like lots of folks do, without having them permanently ironed or sewed on.
I recall road pig looking more Jocko from the 80's Enrrgizer battery commercials. Tall , massive, ripped and dangerous. They could have used a WWE Bautista mold...lol. enough with my rant....I'd still buy him though. Overall I'm impressed about everything. I see major improvements overall. Hopefully when they introduce Heavy duty, they will incorporate some the clothing design from the " pursuit of Cobra" era. In 1989 I put his figure back on the shelf because his backwards cap and white shirt was a total contrast to his camouflage trousers. I grew up as an army brat who later became a Marine, so I'm kinda picky about military appearance.....lol. Overall Haslab has given me a reason to start buying again since I stopped a few months back.
Raptor was the beginning of the end for GI Joe back in the day in my opinion. However, the classified upgraded look is awesome. Very much looks like he belongs in the Marvel universe but still very nice. I'm mostly excited about Zandar and the 60th anniversary Marine sniper. Love the flight suit Baroness too!
I’m in for adding the Once A Man Cobra Commander to my collection and also the Steel Corps Trooper Commander 2 pack! Along with the two pack for Lt. Falcon and Quarrels and Raptor as well and also Leatherneck and the Cobra Rattler Has lab! Road Pig as well and also Star Duster!
Hi Liam, Wow what a bunch of great figures coming our way! As I always say, it's great to get these new figures! 👏👏👏👏👏, but the "EXCLUSIVES" are killing me!!! Hasbro is ruining my collection! HasLab is also ruining my collection. Because they number these I lose out on keeping my collection intact by the numbering system. Others are out there saying it's no big deal. Well, maybe you can afford 1, 2, or 3 of them. I'm not so lucky. These are just Toys, but it's not aimed at kids. It's aimed at "ADULTS" who can afford to buy at these crazy prices. What was the last tier backer, 14,000. Do the math. Roughly, not including the taxes and all other fees, we're talking $4.5 MILLION!!! It could even double if people buy more than one. Those are the fanatic collectors. Hasbro making us jump through hoops just to buy "Toys", unreal!!! And the crazy thing is, we do it. 😂🤣😂, we are freaking NUTS!!! Nothing will change. Just put my head down and put my hand up with my money and let Hasbro take it, right? Because that's what all of us are doing. We dictate nothing. I guess I should say the hell with my collection and just pick what I want. But if I wanted to sell it, it wouldn't be worth much, BECAUSE I HAVE HOLES IN MY COLLECTION BECAUSE THEY'RE NUMBERED!!! Sorry Liam, just venting! The figures look great! Thanks for the updates!👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍
No, it gets a -3. Here are just a few reasons why: 1. No parachutes for any of the crew. 2. No flotation device for the gunner. 3. Those stupid, worthless patches. 4. That turret is awful. 5. $50 more than the Dragonfly. 6. Only 1 damage panel. 7. Still using the same damage panel design from the 80s when there are so many better options that they could have used. 8. Not enough blast effects overall. 9. Not enough blast effects for the engines. They have a pic where they use the missile effect for the engines, but you need 3 to have that look right and they give you 2. 10. No blue blast effect for the main gun, if the turret has blue lasers the gun should too (it always fired blue lasers in the cartoon). 11. No blast effects for the rocket pods. 12. No extra ordinance for customizing the loadout for different mission types. 13. Hardpoints aren't in the right places (doesn't match the classic Rattler). They claim it's a modernized design, but the hardpoints don't match the Warthog either. 14. They failed to include the classic ordinance loadout so you'll have to buy 3D printed bombs and missiles if you want the classic look. And that's not even half my list of issues.
Guess they're running out of figures that I'm familiar with as none of these were a thing when I collected as a kid. A little disappointed in that. Of course, that didn't stop me from ordering them all but, where the he'll is Blowtorch and the missing old-school characters.... 🤨
My overall favorite from these pre-orders is the 60th anniversary Halo Jumper, that figure looks awesome, I pre-ordered 3. I liked everything, tbh. My least favorite was Roadpig, I did still pre-order it but it’s just doesn’t look great to me. I think Starduster looks terrific…one of my overall favorites from the reveals, it doesn’t matter to me that it’s Duke 2.0, the Retro Duke is an awesome figure so it’s a good repaint.
I think we are going to see Hit-N-Run in early 2025….the main reason is that both 60th anniversary figures have plenty of re-use potential for Hit-N-Run. I’m hoping they do it, maybe it’s just wishful thinking!
@@ViperIsland It is disappointing as he was my favorite figure and such an imposing character. The way they made this figure it almost seems out of place from the line in my opinion but oh well I make customs anyway.
@@Ghoosier Same. OG Road Pig was one of my favorites. This one is chubby, cartoony baby faced, and what disappoints me the most is how they pack in all the unnecessary extras, but he doesn't appear to come with his proper trade mark crossbow or forearm shield. Why would they do that!?
@@LastBastian I’m not sure either it just makes no sense. Hard to believe they can completely screw the pooch on some of the most iconic figures we love but nail it on others that are more meh
The Action Pilot reminds me of Hit & Run. I might grab it just for that. As for Road Pig, he was a favorite but honestly if the somber headsculpt wasn't offered I might have turned it down, as I did Big Boa. Big Boa's non-helmet head just looked like a man suffering from depression.
My story of Cobra La is Golobulus is actually Dr Venom who was sent to a secret Cobra Lab (Cobra La = Cobra Laboratories) to make super soldiers. Experiments went wrong, everyone got amnesia and went insane so they either believe the ancient race or that was a lie just to manipulate the Cobra army. CC never acted like a subordinate until they threatened him with the spore. So I always liked Cobra La
I'm up for everyone except Starduster or Road Pig, still waiting for more on Footloose and Airtight. Raptor is awesome and the retros are great but still waiting for my favorites. Happy about Falcon and Quaral, never minded the Original Falcon so this will just be a new character for me. The Rattler is backed at this point so super excited for that since I never got one as a kid. Pretty much looking forward to all but Road Pig and Starduster.
I am a huge RoadPig fan I have all 3 3inch versions of him. I think Hasbro not only missed the mark I think they failed on this figure. It’s not at all what I was expecting or hoping for. As much as I wanted this figure to be my dream come true it’s a total failure for me and I’ll pass!
Super pumped for the rattler for many reasons but mostly nostalgia and that flight suit baroness (🤞🏼 all tiers are met). Also road pig and the steel corp/twilight guard 2 pack are exciting. Can't wait til they put up the claw as that's another must. I do like them all, but those are my top picks. I'm going to hold out for raptor and others on sale... As for starduster, if the images are accurate, that is not the same head sculpt as retro duke after looking at my figure... Anywho thanks for sharing the updates.
Loved the reveals. Loved Zandar, but hugely disappointed with Road Pig. Out of all the Dreadnocks he looks the most cartoonish. Might just leave the helmet on him. Not interested in the Battle pack. I hope they don’t do what they did with the 25th anniversary line. Starduster is Duke with Dark Hair. Loved Raptor but yea looks like Flint. Love the Rattler and cannot stomach the patches. Really? Patches?
Great video Liam! Agree with you 💯 i was gonna pass on a female sniper until i seen it. Very impressed especially with the ghille suit! Starduster is gonna be a pass. Road pig was not from my era, but couldn't pass on that figure. He looks awesome and is a big chunk of plastic lol The rattler looks good and might actually have to support a Haslab...
I am most excited about the Cobra Claw & Pilot. I am a big fan of the smaller vehicles such as the Trouble Bubble and Attack 4-WD Stinger. Will probably do the Cobra Rattler- I am for Haslabs, but I have nowhere to put this huge thing - even with the wings folded up - so it really is impractical for me to get.
Hasbro Fumbled on Road Pig!! One of the dream figs I anticipated. The ripped ruthless beast that we all knew is no where to be seen. They gave us a Guy who never hit the gym, and let himself go. Maybe this is a depressed Road Pig after the dreadknox broke up. This was one of the three figure I was looking forward to getting and honestly, I’m passing on it. Hasbro, I thought you wanted to make money, not lose it.
Road Pig is the star of the show for me here. I have heard people complaining about his headsculpt, but I'm not sure if that's because he's too ugly or not ugly enough. Either way, I think he looks great and Road Pig is the only figure I'm planning to pre-order as soon as he becomes available. Leatherneck is my second most wanted figure from these reveals. I like how basic he looks and I think it matches his practical, no-nonsense personality really well. The HALO Jumper also looks great. I'm not such a fan of the female Action Sniper. If they do a male version later on, I will buy that.
Looking forward to The claw, retro RnR. Order the Cobra Twilight Crimson Guard. Other figures like Law/Order, raptor, ait to get them on sale if possible. Work on ordering Once a Man Commander after the Con same for Starduster after Pulse. Rattler will order two but not a fan of the patches. They should have one come with each figure. Don't like the gunner seat it should rotate with the guns. Don't like that 2 of the 3 figures are named characters. I like and want the Baroness figure, but I believe she should come with a few female gen head sculpts. That way I can create a few other female characters if I buy more than two Rattlers. This was a great recap. Thank You for your hard work.
Couple other thoughts: I dig Starduster and look forward to him. I skipped Retro Duke, so I don't have any version of this fig yet, lol. Also, I do very much like this Raptor, but I wish he had the cloth cape too.
Really 5.0 for Starduster? I mean he was always going to be just a straight up repaint of Duke with the jetpack so what were you really expecting? 🤷♂️
For me: Star Duster = Yes (Not a fan it is Duke, but looks different enough and like the color scheme) Road Pig = Yes (Cartoony face is right, but he has a nice unique look that works) Raptor = Yes (pleasant surprise, did not think I'd get him) Twilight Guard/Steel Corps = No (Not bad, but not for me) Action Sniper = Yes Action Pilot Halo Jumper = Maybe (Feels a little too generic, as opposed to somewhat unique sniper heads...parachute is a little gimmicky but cool) Once a Man CC = No (Well done for what it is, but not for me) Falcon/Quarrel = Maybe (Never heard of Quarrel until this, but don't have Falcon yet because of previous head sculpt) Rattler = Yes (Maybe is the real answer but only because of $$, space, and practicality...it looks great!) Patches are too niche to include in this... Overall they are all decently done...just not interested in some. Appreciate the clean and organized breakdowns.
Retro Duke’s mold looked off to me ever since the reveal. And getting it in hand hasn’t changed my opinion. On the flip side of things, I’m really digging Starduster. Was hoping Quarrel would have been a pack in with the Mirage, but a NF 2 pack works just as well.
I’m still waiting for my favorite character SCI-FI , I know he was a character that fell through the cracks and should’ve been more in G.I.Joe But some how disappeared. Anyway to me he’s EPIC!
I was so excited for Road Pig but I hate how he looks. He looks out of shape, has love handles, and double chins. He didn’t have to be shredded but he really needed to be big and muscular.
Star duster should have been the sdcc exclusive. Raptor is awesome. Leatherneck, Rock n roll, Mindbender, Vipers and Zandar I will buy them 100% Road Pig pass dont like his face. They schould used the face from the arah card. Hopefully I can get my hands on a once a man cc.
I still like figur_head Road pig it's way better, but I do like Road Pig. I'll probably get it, Zander. I like it, but the 80s version was able to change color like his big brother
I'll wait till it gets tier 3 funded because of baroness of course which I'm sure it will get there before Aug but until then I will wait. Those patches though... what is this a Deluxe edition video game lmao you know what I mean if you know. Cough resident evil 6 cough.
@@vegasboy7 in my opinion, the price is high relative to the first two classified haslabs. $50 more than the dragonfly, which looks amazing and comes with 4 figures and $25 more than this Hiss, which comes absolutely stacked and also features 4 figures.... this thing had better be well worth the price increase. Looking at it the way it sits, though, it seems a bit light.
Yeah...reminds me to the human form of Rockesteady or Bebop before of their mutations. In addition, he moves away from the more mature appearance (he appears to be about 40 years old or more). and shows a younger appearance. And on the other hand, he is fatter instead of being more muscular. Since it was inspired by the look of actor Sven-Ole Thorsen (Conan, Mallrats, Lethal Weapon, Gladiator...).
for the head sculpt i can see the paint applications coming off as toonish. i feel that they wanted to go for a mad max/ punk rock vibe as would be suiting for this character, but i think they went half way with it. his face needs war paint!
The new stuff all looks good to me. I want most of it... except the Rattler. I'm beyond disappointed with it. More expensive than the Dragonfly with less value and it looks like it's barely half-finished. So many stupid/bad design decisions. So many poorly implemented features. It's not the worst vehicle in the Classified line, but it could have been so much better!
Guess I can repaint the baroness and put shooters head on for a raven why do they think we want 20 baronesses and 30 snakes instead of the multitude of canonical characters they continue to ignore.
Leatherneck and Zandar! Mindbender, too. I missed him the first time around.
Road Pig's face sculpt looks like the human version of Shrek 🤨
I still want to get the figure, but that's what his face looks like to me, lol
I work with a guy who looks like shrek. The og road pig looked like the wrestler ronnie garvin and to some degree road pig should seem tmnt- ish
Too unscary for me and with the price I’m happy to pass on him.
More patches!!! We need more patches!!! Who needs cool figures when we can have more patches... ugh... yes, i did support it and get a rattler. But patches... ugh
Like you can't buy them from Amazon patches what a bummer
We wanted a 3 member ground Crew !!!
I wish they would at the very least least do them as Morale patches, with velcro backing. & they could be add & swap them them right into a collection, on panels, a pack, car roof interior, etc. like lots of folks do, without having them permanently ironed or sewed on.

Overall Haslab has given me a reason to start buying again since I stopped a few months back.
I agree with you! I will pass. I will stop collecting my favorite Cobra Bikers! I hope someone will offer a retake on the head sculpture at minimum!
Raptor was the beginning of the end for GI Joe back in the day in my opinion. However, the classified upgraded look is awesome. Very much looks like he belongs in the Marvel universe but still very nice. I'm mostly excited about Zandar and the 60th anniversary Marine sniper. Love the flight suit Baroness too!

This Star Duster looks like he should be the kick off character for the Sky Patrol line!
Halo Jumper?... Basically, Hit & Run with a parachute.
Looks like him, for sure.
That's the way I see it..

I hope I can get my hands on the once a man cobra commander. I like it. all I can here in my head is him screaming I was once a man over and over, lol
Im glad they are coming out with all this figures i dont want gives me time to save some money for future joes or cobras
Road Pig looks like Shrek when he was a human in Shrek 2
Cobra Rattler on a scale of 1-10 it gets an 11!
No, it gets a -3. Here are just a few reasons why:
1. No parachutes for any of the crew.

@@joelsteverson wah don’t cry too much that Hasbro didn’t make this specifically for entitled spoiled Karens 😂
Great stuff, quarell I don’t get either. Falcon is nice! Can’t wait for the Rattler!
Thanks for the post and say hello to Dex!
I can’t wait to get my hands on Law and Order, Leatherneck, the Action Marine Sniper, and the Rattler!
We need a new gi joe cartoon with the classified designs.
That’s a ton of good stuff coming! 😮
Very true. The line is red hot!
Patches? Patches!!! I don't need no stinking patches. :)
With the exception of Leatherneck and the Retro card line, I'm completely unmoved by any of the SDCC announcements.
Heavy Duty, Law & Order, Claw & Pilot, and Zandar.
Got my Rattler and going to get Star Duster in September. CLAW is a definite. Getting 2 of those and all of the renders.
Guess they're running out of figures that I'm familiar with as none of these were a thing when I collected as a kid. A little disappointed in that. Of course, that didn't stop me from ordering them all but, where the he'll is Blowtorch and the missing old-school characters.... 🤨

Love the channel and the updates. Is the background music available anywhere? I'm always bopping my head to it.
road pig looks awesome. big boa shouldve been bulked up similarly.
Starduster is so obscure, that I really don’t mind the repaint.
I really like the Twilight Guard, but I have so many Crimson Guards I am not super enthusiastic about it. Same with the Steel Corp Commander.
Get rid of the patches. We need a ground crew, Gatling gun loader, weapons loader, ladders, platforms or at least an add on accessory pack.
I love that cobra commander, especially the bendable snake
Marvel Legends with Gi-joe skin, Wow toys!
Love Zander, sniper, raptor, and the rattler! Dr. Mindbender, maybe, I didn’t get the first one but maybe this time.
I think we are going to see Hit-N-Run in early 2025….the main reason is that both 60th anniversary figures have plenty of re-use potential for Hit-N-Run. I’m hoping they do it, maybe it’s just wishful thinking!
Pilot Baroness is 10/10. ❤ We need that as a stand alone figure
They really missed big time on road pig. Doesn’t look mean and intimidating at all
Totally agree
That's fair. The good news is Hasbro has an opportunity to create a new head sculpt for the retro line or any future versions.

Backed the Rattler, can’t wait for Law and Order, the claw
Didnt get to go to sdcc this year 😪 does anyone know a date for Once A Man?

You’re not alone on this one. I don’t know what they were thinking here smh
Yep. They dropped the ball on this one.
He's also one of my favorites from the 80's, so I will still buy this overpriced let down, and customize it.
Toon head, chubby, and tattooed beer gut... yeah, wtf?
The road pig is trash 1.1, the 3.75 road pig was beefed up and looked mean like Dolph Long from Rocky
Super pumped for the rattler for many reasons but mostly nostalgia and that flight suit baroness (🤞🏼 all tiers are met). Also road pig and the steel corp/twilight guard 2 pack are exciting. Can't wait til they put up the claw as that's another must. I do like them all, but those are my top picks. I'm going to hold out for raptor and others on sale...

Loved the reveals. Loved Zandar, but hugely disappointed with Road Pig. Out of all the Dreadnocks he looks the most cartoonish. Might just leave the helmet on him. Not interested in the Battle pack.
I hope they don’t do what they did with the 25th anniversary line. Starduster is Duke with Dark Hair.
Loved Raptor but yea looks like Flint.
Love the Rattler and cannot stomach the patches. Really? Patches?
Great video Liam! Agree with you 💯 i was gonna pass on a female sniper until i seen it. Very impressed especially with the ghille suit! Starduster is gonna be a pass. Road pig was not from my era, but couldn't pass on that figure. He looks awesome and is a big chunk of plastic lol
The rattler looks good and might actually have to support a Haslab...
I got Road Pig, Raptor and the 60th Halo Jumper pre ordered!
Of the Name Only reveals, I've gotta go with RnR. I'm looking forward to getting a complete original 82 line-up in the 6" retro style.
Starduster is a win for me...just never had him from original GIJOE.
I am most excited about the Cobra Claw & Pilot. I am a big fan of the smaller vehicles such as the Trouble Bubble and Attack 4-WD Stinger.

Really 5.0 for Starduster? I mean he was always going to be just a straight up repaint of Duke with the jetpack so what were you really expecting? 🤷♂️
Road Pig looks badass!!!!!!! The Twilight Guard doesn’t look too shabby either.
My reaction. My poor wallet.
For me:
Star Duster = Yes (Not a fan it is Duke, but looks different enough and like the color scheme)
Road Pig = Yes (Cartoony face is right, but he has a nice unique look that works)
Raptor = Yes (pleasant surprise, did not think I'd get him)
Twilight Guard/Steel Corps = No (Not bad, but not for me)
Action Sniper = Yes
Action Pilot Halo Jumper = Maybe (Feels a little too generic, as opposed to somewhat unique sniper heads...parachute is a little gimmicky but cool)
Once a Man CC = No (Well done for what it is, but not for me)
Falcon/Quarrel = Maybe (Never heard of Quarrel until this, but don't have Falcon yet because of previous head sculpt)
Rattler = Yes (Maybe is the real answer but only because of $$, space, and practicality...it looks great!) Patches are too niche to include in this...
Overall they are all decently done...just not interested in some.
Appreciate the clean and organized breakdowns.
Retro Duke’s mold looked off to me ever since the reveal. And getting it in hand hasn’t changed my opinion. On the flip side of things, I’m really digging Starduster.
Was hoping Quarrel would have been a pack in with the Mirage, but a NF 2 pack works just as well.
So ... when they release the Non-Night Force Rip-cord, is he going to just be a rerelease of the Action Pilot?
Basically, yes. 🤣
I thought it was ripcord at first
That is going to be just sad. The 60th Action Pilot HALO is pure garbage.
The saving hope is for retro carded Ripcord.
Lets go, everyone... we gotta get this rattler over 18,000... I need that baroness!😂
Both 60th figures are rad!!
I’m still waiting for my favorite character SCI-FI , I know he was a character that fell through the cracks and should’ve been more in G.I.Joe But some how disappeared. Anyway to me he’s EPIC!
About Rattler:
First tier is crap. The rest is awesome.
Everything looks good to me and that’s a first. ❤
I would have been upset if they had changed starduster
I bet we will be getting the FANG soon due to being seen in the pics of Star Duster
I always liked the fang, maybe it’s on my list
I was so excited for Road Pig but I hate how he looks. He looks out of shape, has love handles, and double chins. He didn’t have to be shredded but he really needed to be big and muscular.
I want Law and Order, having the German Shepard will be too cool.
I wouldn't hold your breath for a retro Raptor.
Star duster should have been the sdcc exclusive.
Raptor is awesome. Leatherneck, Rock n roll, Mindbender, Vipers and Zandar I will buy them 100% Road Pig pass dont like his face. They schould used the face from the arah card. Hopefully I can get my hands on a once a man cc.
Oh yeah, once a man, Cobra commander looks great
I still like figur_head Road pig it's way better, but I do like Road Pig. I'll probably get it, Zander. I like it, but the 80s version was able to change color like his big brother
Oh and the patches suck! Give me some ground crew for the price. GOOD-NESS!
@joeglatz9242 hopefully the backers blow well past 18,000 and they have something cool to add on the back burners when that happens.
Starduster looks good 👍🏻
I'll wait till it gets tier 3 funded because of baroness of course which I'm sure it will get there before Aug but until then I will wait. Those patches though... what is this a Deluxe edition video game lmao you know what I mean if you know. Cough resident evil 6 cough.
Are we going to get a 60th anniversary Marine male figure?
Still no Hydro Vioer huh? That dude was sick looking.
Raptor 9.8/10, road pig 5/10
Just wondering, would everyone would have been okay if they didn't make it with the flip up to show the engine detail and had a lower price?
@@vegasboy7 in my opinion, the price is high relative to the first two classified haslabs. $50 more than the dragonfly, which looks amazing and comes with 4 figures and $25 more than this Hiss, which comes absolutely stacked and also features 4 figures.... this thing had better be well worth the price increase. Looking at it the way it sits, though, it seems a bit light.
Really like raptor & road pig, rattler
Any news on a new Major Blood. I want a retro one.
What's up with all the female cobra figures??
Where is Road Pig's forearm crossbow and shield!?
And why does his face look ...off??
I pre orderd him
Keep up the great work! Thanks for the new video!
Roadpig is a disappointment, his cartoon looks makes me think he is more of TMNT figure
Very accurate.
Yeah...reminds me to the human form of Rockesteady or Bebop before of their mutations.
In addition, he moves away from the more mature appearance (he appears to be about 40 years old or more). and shows a younger appearance. And on the other hand, he is fatter instead of being more muscular. Since it was inspired by the look of actor Sven-Ole Thorsen (Conan, Mallrats, Lethal Weapon, Gladiator...).
he looks great! idk what youre on about.
for the head sculpt i can see the paint applications coming off as toonish. i feel that they wanted to go for a mad max/ punk rock vibe as would be suiting for this character, but i think they went half way with it. his face needs war paint!
Yeah, Roadpig is my least favorite out of all of the pre-orders….just looks sloppy to me
YO JOE!!! 🇺🇸🫡
Road Pig looks fat to me. But I never considered him fat before, just really muscular. I’m disappointed.
Hope i can get mindbender and zandar
Action Marine Sniper a female 🤔 I don't know about that. As a kid never like Barbies action figures in my collection 😂 But she looks good 👍🏻
More retro and Law & Order👍🏽
Hasbro Pulse App has been TRASH at 5pm Eastern. I had to go to a computer to order my Joe’s. Seriously, this is unacceptable. 😔
The new stuff all looks good to me. I want most of it... except the Rattler. I'm beyond disappointed with it. More expensive than the Dragonfly with less value and it looks like it's barely half-finished. So many stupid/bad design decisions. So many poorly implemented features. It's not the worst vehicle in the Classified line, but it could have been so much better!
Guess I can repaint the baroness and put shooters head on for a raven why do they think we want 20 baronesses and 30 snakes instead of the multitude of canonical characters they continue to ignore.
Road Pig looks like Araon Hernandez......just sayin. Everything looks great to me. Starduster appeals to the nostalgia of us old schoolers.
When will starduster be available for order
Sept 13
@ViperIsland thank you sir.
