    This was so fascinating and if Brian was worried about time... i sat through the entire interview from start to finish. I wanted to give Brian a huge hug and a firm handshake for he and his team who brought sunbow Scarlett and Baroness into reality. Love classified and 80s lines but never quite hit that feeling of holding sunbow Scarlett and Baroness in my hand. Seeing those figures now in my hands as Brian spoke was magic. Thanks for this great interview 👍

    Great interview, I could listen to Brian talk shop all day! I only collect Joe, but I appreciate Brian’s and Super7’s depth of knowledge and risk taking spirit. I’m looking forward to see what the Reaction Plus line brings to G.I.Joe!

    Man, what a great interview... You asked a lot of questions that you know we all want to know. I like a lot Brian Flynn approach and willingness to work with collectors. I'm not disappointed of him and I think they are doing great regardless of the circumstances. I will continue backing them up with their different projects. 😀✌️☕💡

    I'm laughing right now watching this because I have about 5 toys on my desk, right now, from a company that when it came out I was like this makes no sense no way. One of them is staring at me. Then all of a sudden I got it, and now I can't get enough.

    Super awesome. I love hearing you guys talk about GIJoe. Brain is great and he shares our passion. I hope others can see his passion and o hope he makes some cool vehicles for the line. Check out other GIJoe fan custom vehicles to get even more ideas of cool vehicles and paint jobs to make in the coming waves. Love ya Brain super happy you are getting to make O rings WOW. I will buy the heck out of this line.

  • @JoePal-c3n

    Loved the interview. Hopefully we will see Brian again. Interesting about the Joe ULTIMATES! So, they are stopping preorders? It's very weird we haven't seen the next 2 waves. This is my main line, but it feels like they are on life support at this time. I need that sweet Sunbow plastic.

      Personally I really like the idea of Joe Ultimates just popping up in stock from time to time. I am sick to death of EVERYBODY'S preorders. Though I do prefer the pay up front model where possible.

    • @bhodie131
      @bhodie131 Месяц назад

      I have a feeling Joe ultimates is going to either go the way of just a few figures a year (4 regular and a con exclusive), or Basically fizzle out because it will most likely be late 2025 or early 2026 to see figures based on new “in stock” model. At least classified has their retro line.

    You should do the mother ship still and when you have enough backers then you make it. That way there is no time limit and then once enough people back it you can make it.

    I watched your videos for years but now I can use my cell to comment since I didn’t get much time on my computer to. Super awesome video. Where can we pre order the super 7 o ring figures since I can’t find it on bbts.

    The sky striker without the figures would have been $100 without the figures and that’s very reasonable compared to paying $200 or $300 for one. lol 😂

  • @JoePal-c3n
    @JoePal-c3n Месяц назад

    The comic cobra rattler has the jets on the sides of it so that’s a cool jet. I think people said there was like 3 different types of cobra rattlers and the cobra transport helicopter not made. And the Hiss tank we need some cool versions of it. Come on tones of vehicles you can make for the line. As well as all the unproduced as well as new vehicles even some action force vehicles.

  • @JoePal-c3n
    @JoePal-c3n Месяц назад

    It would be cheaper to have your own factory in the USA because of high shipping and higher material as well as higher labor costs. Or maybe in Mexico. Then your costs will be lower plus you could produce other lines or other companies figures then you factory is always filling orders.

    I don’t understand his rant on price/inflation. In 1982 a GI Joe for 2.99 adjust for inflation that would be 9.73 today. I was always had an understanding the reason things were more expensive was the cost of materials and not selling as much as they did in the 80s. Am I misunderstanding him?

    There is tones of vehicles you can make better. Like a two seater Shark or a 4 seater snow cat. A 6 wheel vamp truck. The comic Cobra rattler. A Vietnam, Huey for tiger force for Doc. Also, lots of prototype vehicles that never got made people would buy the shit out of it. You gotta make vehicles. Brian people are counting on you once the line takes off you’ll see.

      We are getting a lot of awesome o ring lines and these ones just add but the most important thing is they will be in stores and that makes it way more exciting just like when I went to Cobra collectibles and found delta17 figures there. Plus cobra bats cobra crimson guards are coming too. I know Brian he has plans for that lol

    • @JoePal-c3n
      @JoePal-c3n Месяц назад

      Once they sell higher numbers of o ring figures then they will make vehicles. I seen this in the future. And Brain will make tones of nice new cool vehicles. I had an amazing vision about it. So Yes these figures will do well and yes he needs a factory in Mexico run by China. lol 😂 to get lower prices. 😎😎 but most of all the more army building figures he brings out the more people will buy. I am going to buy tones.

    • @JoePal-c3n

    I quit buying Ultimates as I had so many QC issues and I've since moved to just collecting O-ring to go with my main collection of MP Transformers. That said, I am interested in their Reaction + but Brian has already said they are making what you never got, sounds good, but does that mean no Sunbow Snake Eyes and also they won't be converting any of their previous Reaction to Reaction +? I really wish someone would push him on this so we can know. And this is why I don't preorder anymore with them as they never give us a good road map. and now their Ultimates GIJOE seems like it is in deep trouble.

    • @NeedlessThings

    lol you can remake everything for the o ring line because just like star wars the value never went down. The value of something will always remain what a collector will pay. Some buy mint on cards some mixed some open everything. But no matter what. Our old figures are brittle so we need new ones. And anyone whom argues against that doesn’t play with there figures. lol 😂 🤣🤣😉.
