I pre-ordered Dusty, Zarana, and the Crimson Guard and I'm glad they are doing Sgt. Slaughter. I just hope June will be a better show than this hot mess that we got. 🤞
I'm glad that there will be a Sgt Slaughter, I wasn't going near any of those Valaverse figures. Missed all the preorders on Pulse, no Targets in Canada and Toys R Us is unreliable at best. Managed to preorder somewhere else. I was happy with these, less so with the lack of reminder from my phone since I missed the window at Pulse by half an hour.
I want to believe that Target wanted that Crimson Guard as an exclusive, but seeing as how every company wants money here & now, that explains it. Hasbro will pump them out in large quantities, and Target saves on its bottom line by not paying for the more expensive exclusive. Hasbro is ALL about earnings at the moment.
I was born about 5 years too late on GI Joe but I still managed to get my cousins hand me down Joes which I cherished. I'm FINALLY able to watch the cartoon after all these years and just learning the series. I have some questions, like who is the main bad guy boss? Zartan, Cobra Commander or Destro? They all seem to fight among each other and all seem to have equal authority. Also I notice Cobra has Crimson guards and troops to army build but do the GI Joe's have any troops to army build with?
I wonder if we will get an o-ring and 4 inch Sgt. Slaughter. We still need a William the Refrigerator Perry figure. I think hasbro did the same thing to the Super 7 B.A.T.. Super 7 annouced a bat. Then so did hasbro. Different scale and toon asthetic.
HASBRO is Relying on the Consumer, Collector, Fan to say and do EXACTLY what you said at 2 33. YES! I'll pick it up. As long as you are willing to faithfully pick up, buy, purchase the Repaints and Redos, and Retro this, Color Variation that, at the EVER INCREASING PRICE GOUGING PRICE POINTS, HASBRO will CONTINUE to pump out the Garbage instead of giving you, the Consumer, the Collector, the Fan what you want and what you deserve. Between the EXCLUSIVES (RAM? Tiger Force Ram? Good Luck) and the RIP OFF Pricing, this Collector, Fan is OUT. I might be the first, but won't be the last.
Yes I have pondered quitting classified more times than I can even remember. There was the can not get a viper era, no sdcc zartan era and now we are in the all repaint era
Hasbro invested a lot of money into that SE origins movie and line of figs, to not get anywhere near the returns they'd hoped for. So it's a bit understandable why they'd be a bit gun shy. I actually purchased an Akiko figure intending to pop off the head and try using articulated icons ninja heads in its place. And if it worked, to get some extra akiko's when they get clearance dumped to paint the white different color variants so they can be assigned to a different color ninja team/clan. The various colors could also be like a female collage of MK ninjas. I thought it'd be a simple pop & swap, but the neck got mangled and then I saw vids about how the movie classifieds had different neck pegs than the other joe classifieds. I guess I should've used the hot water or blow dryer methods... but seeing this blue ninja set with multiple heads makes me think they've remedied their head pop/swap problem(s). I'm curios to know which and how many weapons.
So do you want the Super 7 Sunbow figure, the Classified kinda sorta classic figure, or Classified very close to classic figure? Sheesh! Wish we could get the definitive versions and move onto other characters.
Many rumored we’d get a Tiger Paw with Tiger Force Duke btw but like minds we don’t need another Snake Eyes or Zartan there’s a Host of untouched characters from Shipwreck GEN Hawk Serpentor Mutt n Junkyard etc. Perhaps Lenny and Squiggy Hasbro team are saving some goodies for Joe June...stay tuned!
There are going to be big surprises at the Joe June like fully closed cardboard packaging starting with Slaughter. You will never get to see your figures HA HA LOL! Maybe there will be a good reveal or 2 in addition to that
Crimson Guards is one of my all time favorites as a kid( I pre ordered 6). I never owned one. My neighbor had it. Took all my 8yr old might not to try to steal it lol. I was a good boy. Anyway, I always try to remain positive and not cry and bitch during the live stream, but I was groaning to myself for most of this last one. Repaints galore. They look good but damn, do that later! I am still waiting like most everyone else minus some big youtubers it seems for my Stormshadow. And now they are doing a even more retro one my childhood heart would die for, that not only won't come out for a while too but I'll probably never see at any Walmart near me. Only thing cool about the blue ninjas is the mask. So kinda tempted but we shall see. I could give a flying F#ck about Tiger Force and Python Patrol. I was at the age when those came out to start thinking that those were just dumb. So I am happy they are exclusive I don't need or want. I will wait for the more original looks. As for Slaughter. I really will never get why you all get so giddy over him. Again to me, I hit the age I guess where I thought he was just dumb and a jump the shark type character. I think it's because it reminds me of the movie and all the shit characters that were introduced with that and the total jumping the shark stuff. And all the neon and stupid colored garbage that followed. Sorry, I'm old a cranky now. Get off my lawn with your new aged neon joes and cobras! Zarana looks great. Dusty looks good. Head sculpt is awesome. His helmet looks a little big and weird shaped though. What Classified needs to also do is give us extra hands! two 24/7 trigger finger hands isn't cutting it. I hate posing some of these guys/girls and its like they got one crippled hand stuck in trigger position. Hoping Yo Joe June will make up for this last stream. Sorry If I offended anyone with my distain for certain stuff.
Yes distribution sucks and I am guessing we will see Lady J just clogging pegs. Crimson guard is cool and I bet there will be another Entertainment earth sale to troop build
@@tydiriumhanger1320 I was scared that the Crimson Guard would be a cobra island target exclusive back when that was a thing. Happy at least this will be a somewhat easy army builder.
@REFORMATTED 2086 agreed.. The reason I stopped collecting transformers is that between official and 3rd party I'm sick to death of the same characters being done over and over and over and over again... Sorry but I DONT need or want 50 million versions if optimus prime, bumblebee or starscream.
I think you went overboard with the Hasbro hate in this video. You talk about how much Hasbro doesn't have faith in the line but applaud them for the looks of the zarana, dusty, bazooka, and recondo. plus we are getting the crimson guards and the twins. They have basically given us 6 new figures announced in the first quarter of the year. Then we add on the sgt slaughter figure which they had to pay a crap load for the license. Yet you said they don't money at Hasbro for this line. Just chill a bit! repaints were apart of the game even in the original line. We know we are getting mind bender and I'm sure we will get more announcements later this year. The sky is not falling
They are "killing the collect them all" if we keep getting these unwanted figures numbered like blue ninjas and the 11th Snake eyes. I have heard many others gush how great this livestream was and we only got 1 actual reveal. With the rising prices I am starting to like super 7 way more but even they take forever to get to market
Just give me all the core Joes/Cobras from the first 50 or so issues of Marvel's Joe comic and I will be happy as long as they aren't hard to get exclusives. My wallet is already yelling at me from all my Transformers purchases and preorders.
Yep you touched on a good point that this line is dying and they give us repaints. With MOTU, Transformers, Centurions, and more competing for the same Dollars they give us repaints and another Snake eyes
I'd be more excited if Hasbro actually fixed their distribution problems . They can make all the announcements they want ,but if the product never reaches the pegs ,who gives a damm ? I'm still waiting for product that was released 2 years ago . Fix the REAL problem Hasbro.... Go ahead....I dare you
They ( meaning the 3 stooges) start off the live stream w/another Snake eyes? Not Sgt Slaughter? How is that possible? SMH. Another Zartan (future discounted peg warmer) when a re-release of SDCC Zartan would have been awesome. Of course that would have made GI JOE fans happy and we can't be having that after 3+ years of lack of direction from Hasbro.
Yessir Doc looks fantastic but not paying $55+ retail ex: Big Bad Toys to get my fix..Hassenfeld Bros need to step up their game...supply xhain excuse is tired its 2022 find another way to get product WWII Air drop that Trash LOL.
One of the greatest comments I heard from a collector was "Wow thank you Hasbro , my PRE-ORDER collection looks great!!!"
LOL that is so true and a collection of mostly digital renders
@@tydiriumhanger1320 hi Mike.. You do realise the "exclusives" are nothing of the sort. You guys in America have been lied to by hasBLOW for years.
I pre-ordered Dusty, Zarana, and the Crimson Guard and I'm glad they are doing Sgt. Slaughter. I just hope June will be a better show than this hot mess that we got. 🤞
They have big plans for June like closed boxes but hope for Serpentor
The Duke repaint looks fantastic. What's the matter with having two Slaughters from two different companies?!😜
Valaverse paid for the exclusive rights for this size and now Hasbro is making the same character. Many collectors will cancel Vala for Hasbro
The Zarana looks great, but I'm not sure about that Gwen Tennyson package artwork.
Oh yes that artwork is not great
I'm glad that there will be a Sgt Slaughter, I wasn't going near any of those Valaverse figures. Missed all the preorders on Pulse, no Targets in Canada and Toys R Us is unreliable at best. Managed to preorder somewhere else. I was happy with these, less so with the lack of reminder from my phone since I missed the window at Pulse by half an hour.
Good info so Pulse sells out to international customers. Makes sense because they never cancelled preorders I actually placed
I want to believe that Target wanted that Crimson Guard as an exclusive, but seeing as how every company wants money here & now, that explains it. Hasbro will pump them out in large quantities, and Target saves on its bottom line by not paying for the more expensive exclusive. Hasbro is ALL about earnings at the moment.
True Hasbro is putting as little money into the Joe line and just repainting everything to milk molds.

Hope we get a fridge and yes to Slaughter at the 3.75 or 4 inch scale maybe a super 7 reaction

That is a problem with these reveals no weapons or accessories in the digital renders
So do you want the Super 7 Sunbow figure, the Classified kinda sorta classic figure, or Classified very close to classic figure? Sheesh! Wish we could get the definitive versions and move onto other characters.
True I would also like a definitive version and move on because more of the same is frustrating
Pretty much agree with everything you said!
Hope for a better showing in June
On Hasbro Pulse you can get colour change Zartan in the UK, maybe you can import it?
Yes but after shipping and all that it is nearly $100 and not worth it
Many rumored we’d get a Tiger Paw with Tiger Force Duke btw but like minds we don’t need another Snake Eyes or Zartan there’s a Host of untouched characters from Shipwreck GEN Hawk Serpentor Mutt n Junkyard etc. Perhaps Lenny and Squiggy Hasbro team are saving some goodies for Joe June...stay tuned!

Reuse of assets is hardly new. The MOTU lines have done this for years.
True but at least we get more classic characters not just the same characters repainted 4 to 11 times. Yes they are doing comic motu versions
Ya def not the same fucking thing not even close
Tydirium hanger you are in the okc area correct? if so are you seeing much on the bats & alley vipers? i havnt seen but one of each in the tulsa area
None here it OKC it is dry
@@tydiriumhanger1320 thanks i was thinking about a hunting trip there and toybase 10 and action is always fun too
🥷🏻🙏Can we see your custom Zartan?
Yes check out this vid at the 1:00 mark I use the custom for comparisons and sorta a mascot LOL ruclips.net/video/RZUuB57WIAQ/видео.html

Folk can like Valaverse and Classified.
Yes that is true like them both for what they bring to the game
where the fuck is serpentor! there are 4.5 billion different snake eyes wtf
Yep I have been expecting Serpentor for the past 2 livestreams and I never would have guessed yet another Snake eyes
@@tydiriumhanger1320 i have been waiting 30 fkn years lmfao its like the end of the movie never happened and where are all those figures as well???

Go ahead....I dare you
I think they will fix it and then flood the market which is fine
I’m all in on Super 7. So don’t need a lot of these
That is so tempting
They ( meaning the 3 stooges) start off the live stream w/another Snake eyes? Not Sgt Slaughter? How is that possible? SMH. Another Zartan (future discounted peg warmer) when a re-release of SDCC Zartan would have been awesome. Of course that would have made GI JOE fans happy and we can't be having that after 3+ years of lack of direction from Hasbro.
True the 3 stooges are either out of touch or sinister!
Will this be another sigma 6 series?
Might go that way
I didn't watched their stream. I'm not a fan of the figure... I still prefer the O-ringed classics for playability and nostalgia.
Yes Gijoe is best at the 3.75 oring or 4 inch modern scale because of the dope vehicles
I do get a bit tired of the endless seeming “digital renders” sheesh.
LOL these digital renders wiil be her late next year or early 2024
Oh and how about Lifeline and Doc cant go to battle without a Medic C’mon Bruh Lol!
Super 7 has got doc and will be hard to beat and ye Lifeline will be awesome
Yessir Doc looks fantastic but not paying $55+ retail ex: Big Bad Toys to get my fix..Hassenfeld Bros need to step up their game...supply xhain excuse is tired its 2022 find another way to get product WWII Air drop that Trash LOL.
Valaverse is shite.
It is good that there is another company making toys maybe the next project will be a retro line like Kenner mask or visionaries
