If it's the same unit or like, position in the army, i don't mind seeing reused parts, you know? It makes sense that some stuff would be sort of the same. Making sure they have different paint jobs and patterns already does the job and speeds up the release for us fans.
It cracks me up that the Flint and Duke figures are so close and reused when the show rarely had Duke and Flint in the same area or episode because kids would think they were the same guy. I decided to watch your channel because you were mentioned in a shartimus video and finally decided to check you out and I am so glad I did. Subscriber for life here.
Thanks so much for this! When the line first started, I was only going to get just the characters I’ve always been in love with. But as I got those, IE: Snake Eyes, “Storm Shadow,” ”Scarlett, The Baroness, etc. I found that I was wanting the others as well. I was briefly on the fence with Flint and Lady Jaye, but after your awesome review I just ordered mine! And I had to break down and bite the bullet to get the RIDICULOUSLY expensive “Beach Head” and “Firefly”..... times are so different for us collectors, as in my search and destroy mission to find the ever elusive “Baroness” going to find figures physically in stores is a compete waste of time, I still haven’t found even ONE figure in a store, I’ve had to get them on EBay...
Nice review! I always enjoy your reviews and your other videos. The new wave of Joe’s look cool. I actually seen some G.I. Joe Classified Series on the pegs at Walmart last week! Cobra Vipers, Zartan, and Roadblock. That was a surprise! Keep up the fun videos! Thanks!
I searched 'G.I. Joe Classified series' and this came up, I haven't even got the RUclips notification yet! I've just got into the line with Cobra Commander, Zartan should arrive within a few days and I pre-ordered two Cobra Infantry and these two, I don't even know much about G.I. Joe but double jointed arms on a female figure was enough for me. Thanks again Robo, you're the one who got me into this line with your amazing reviews.
@@TheFwoosh Yeah, ever since I got Cobra Commander I've been addicted to watching G.I. Joe reviews whilst waiting impatiently for the other figures I ordered, but hey I got the shipping notice for my Cobra Infantry figures and Zartan arrived this morning and oh man, such a good figure.
They’ve always shared sculpts. If you look at the original 1982 line, the 12 male figures mix and match 5 heads, 6 torsos, 3 arms, and 3 legs. Only Scarlett is wholly original.
For me, Hasbro ruined the G.I. Joe Classified line by making Baroness--and a few others--an impossible to find Target exclusive. Impossible to find, because local managers can zero out their store's online inventory any time they want; local workers have been caught buying cases; and local workers will hoard stuff for their eBay scalper friends.
Employees are in on it too for scalping ? This is a isn’t right at all..... online is too overpriced . They can have this .and employees are allowed to sell to scalpers .there are people out shopping at target that are saving employees their jobs. Target should have what they are supposed to have
Yeah it really was why I stopped, I got back into it recently with these two but I basically started passing on figures because I was never gonna see em
I actually just found the baroness with c.o.i.l. bike at target today after some dumbass put it in the clearance section for half price (yeah, I got her for $12).
Robo Knows Joes! Awesome review on these figures. They do look fantastic and I can't wait to get my hands on them. I'm just hoping my local Target will get them in stock soon. I found Zartan and Cobra Trooper there which almost gave me a heart attack.
So when I got mine I immediately took the vest off Flint and gave him a ML tactical chest harness which opens his upper torso completely, with Lady Jaye I swapped her belt with a more tactical one, gave her a chest strap harness and put the vest from SW Jin Erso after trimming the shoulders a bit, and lastly I painted the boots brown, just want the OG look
Great review bro as always, I just have to say that the tightness of the joints are better because it can be fixed or worked with but when the joints are super loose like the first release of snake eyes v1 and v2 very loose ab joint or shoulders, it's very hard to make them tight overtime or naturally.
Excellent, I agree tho , I wish they would just make the overlays removable, I also see Flint more grim and less smirking, still very cool , can’t wait till ( if) we get the drednocks
I'm not a G.I. Joe guy, but I'm digging this line. I just like the idea of using them as army guys for Marvel Legends. Jaye looks great and I love that head sculpt, and double elbows on a female Hasbro figure! Seriously, I'm tempted to get into G.I. Joe stuff now... this is dangerous for my wallet.
Wow, it's no surprise but I love these 2 figures. I was so excited to start collecting the classified Joe's but every great review that I watch makes me want them more and I can NEVER find them. I could spend double or triple for them but that gets hard on the budget.
At first, from afar, I thought that they over-corrected from the bright-techy stuff with Lady Jaye. She seems so bland, but up close there are a lot details that maybe could use a little colour or a wash to make them more apparent. I mean, I'm still happily going to get her!
I have gotten Lady Jaye but still need Flint. With the rumored 6" retro line I'm curious on who will be in it and what redos will show up. Got in late but numbers have build up for this line in my collection.
I really hope I can find these in the wild. I'm planning on using an X-acto on Flint's armor straight down the middle like I did to BeachHead and Roadblock, just to get a bit more range in articulation and display options.
Love the video. Any chance you can do a short 'how to' video when you glue the belt on Lady Jay? Like what glue you are using, what you use to apply it, and what you use for clean up? Stuff like that. I tried to glue something for a Star Wars Black figure and it was a mess, the glue is all over the place. Thanks!
I passed on Lady Jaye when I pre ordered Flint, then I came to my senses and ordered her too! After seeing the accessories and how they can be stored, I’m so glad I changed my mind! Would have been good if they had made Flints chest piece removable, they could have made it attach in the way that Zartan’s scarf does. Oh and if they ever relaunch an animated series, I want you to dub the entire cast 😂
I just picked both of these up today and both of them had super loose drop down joints on the left leg, jaye actually has a stuck drop down joint on her right leg, and both have really tight hip ball joints like yours.
From what I can see they knocked it out of the park with lady Jaye she looks amazing! While flints just an Eh not my favorite but glad were getting him.
Love what I see. To continue the comments trend, I would like to see Shipwreck, Doc (yes another retool), Scrap Iron, Torpedo, and General Hawk. Just saying. Thanks for the video and hope to get mine soon.
I'm thinking about getting a couple of flints for custom stuff seeing as he is partly the same as the viper and I can get repro head, vest and arm guards.
Underneath Flints armor piece the collar is a little ruber separate piece from the torso slight differnce in the actual collar and the medal that he has there
You know I don't feel so bad not having Duke, considering I have Flint and he's 90% Duke already. Hopefully with the retro Duke announced they use different parts. I really love that you go through and highlight reuse because I overlook that. I would've had Duke next to Flint and they're basically the same figure.
I think Jaye looks like a great base for F.Greenshirts. That swap hair makes her even more customizable. I can see her being reused for Jinx and Covergirl with a jacket. . I just saw the Zartan case the other day at WM. Not in the mood, I passed, a couple hours later, all six were gone. OFW. First 6" Joes I've seen in months.
Oh my GOD I’m only 17 but I grew up on Real American Hero. I had older action figures and oh my GOD this line is destroying me, because I’ve only got the repaint Scarlet (stupid distribution!!) and I saw pimp Destro once. I want MORE!!!
I thought Stormshsdow was from the Assassins Creed game. Flint was one of my favorites, I don't care for the way he looks here. I wonder if they'll do a Sgt Slaughter and William Perry
I've only kept my Cobras at this point. The total lack of being able to find Classified on shelves have just killed this line for me. And seeing that Major Bludd is another Target exclusive, I just don't know if I'm even interested anymore
Stunned to find these at Walmart today ... Haven't seen any other Joes, except the Cobra Commander I grabbed months ago, since last year. I don't really care about reuse as much on theses figs ... they're in military units ... unless I've missed some news real life soldiers aren't issued unique to them fatigues / uniforms all that often. So if two Joes that are really serving similar roles on the team have the same shirt / pants / gloves ..... not really that big of a deal. Even the weapons could be more uniform. They should probably consider making removable ( as in intended to be removed ) tactical torso armor though ...
So I know this is a GI Joe video BUT do you by chance have the inside scoop of when the new Target exclusive Star Wars Black Series 50th Anniversary Clone Wars figure go up for pre-order? I’ve searched but can’t find a date. If you know please mention it in your next weekly ???
Good Stuff, Robo!!! You didn't mention where you got them from! I pre-ordered them from Dorkside, BBTS, Amazon and Gamestop...Taking no chances with my FOMO!!! Still patiently waiting for shipping notices!!! Why, Why, Why must we suffer all the time...Just want my Joes, Is that too much to ask for, Action Figure gods!!!!! Sorry for the digression!!!! By the way, Great Review...Yo Joe!!!! Peace!!!!
Jaye looks like great fodder Hmm I wonder how those pegless arms and legs are best taken apart Might also be a neat idea for a play day, to take apart an extra pegless figure haha
It's 3 days later and my Gamestop order of these two still say, "Awaiting product Availability." Zartan and Cobra Infantry were updated to "shipping soon" same day as release with tracking info showing up the next day. Is it my turn to get figures from a delayed batch this time? They charged me already so, I better be getting them.
Love that Burger Boss is just a part of Cobra without any fuss.
Here’s my question: is the Burger Boss from Cobra-La?
I just want them to come out with the following next SPIRIT, JINX, COVER GIRL, QUICK KICK, HEAVY DUTY, and TUNNEL RAT
God, spirit in this line would be so fucking cool. I want Barbecue so bad.
But what about outback
@@duganchase8577 Outback will be awesome. We need more beard guys!
I want barbecue to look sick with his Axe and his Blaster And his knife And his hose
Tunnel rat doesn't get enough love
I swear I need one of these reviews every day,I love thim so much
I wish we got Joes that frequently!
@@TheFwoosh same
Hoping for Cover Girl with blonde and auburn hair choices and Shipwreck.

I cannot wait for these two to come in. Great review Robo. Appreciate the heads up about the tight joints.
Thanks for these G.I. Joe review videos. A plethora of great info!
Thank you Robo for showing us how the accessories go together!
Good review. Love the Lady Jaye but someone pointed out how she looks like Chris Kattan and now I can’t unsee it.
I don’t like the shin guard too, so I switch them around to the back and that looks great! Thanks for your video!!! ^^
I think you should seriously consider doing more extensive stories. Its really fun
Flint and Duke's outfits were very similar except for colors, they could have shared a sculpt back in the day if they thought like that back then.
They’ve always shared sculpts. If you look at the original 1982 line, the 12 male figures mix and match 5 heads, 6 torsos, 3 arms, and 3 legs. Only Scarlett is wholly original.
Love this line, and you do some great reviews Robo! Definitely just picked up some of that oil as well!
I really like these 2 sculpts. So far Flint is my favorite Joe right now.
Thanks Robo, been looking forward to this review.
Awesome looking figures. Can't wait to get mine. Both look great, but Lady Jaye looks superb.
Al fiiiin mis personajes favoritos y en pareja...exquisitos...Gracias por el video, bro 🖖😎👍

Yeah, that's true, I prefer tight over loosey goosey.

That's one sweet Argentinian Lady Jaye.
And that's a hell of a Cuban Flint as well!
I'm gonna start my custom favala diorama right away!
Thanks for another great review 😊 I'm waiting for my pre-order...but these Joes are gonna be totally outclassed once Valaverse releases Action Force.
I use shoe goo to glue my stuff. It's not permanent, can be removed with no damage to the figure, and holds like superglue.
Would you say it works better than sticky tack? Got some super action stuff accessories and was wondering what would be the best adhesive to use?
@@OceansOfMotionStudios I stand by the shoe goo. It holds so well and can be removed.
I've collected what I want and I'm done. Haha. Always nice to see a review of something.
They look great! Now if only I could ever see them in stores! Online purchases for me....
Yep, she is definitely my new April my my turtles set. All I need is a few accessories
Hasbro mentioned the alternate head for Jayes Javelin was an explosive tip :)
Great review. I hope Major Blud is next. I'd also like to see the Dread Knocks come out in two packs. Maybe a deluxe Road Pig.
Hope your doing great these days 👍
I’m so damn happy about the movie snake eyes, I’ve always wanted a 6 inch movie snake eyes or storm shadow and they’re finally coming
Fond memories of the film? Huh?
@@Th3Xp3rt yup, I always watched it with my cousin, sure the movies aren’t great in terms of realism and acting but we loved the movies
Wow, it's no surprise but I love these 2 figures. I was so excited to start collecting the classified Joe's but every great review that I watch makes me want them more and I can NEVER find them. I could spend double or triple for them but that gets hard on the budget.
There a lot of them in gamestop online and amazon rigth now
Jaye is fantastic. Might be my favorite in the line so far. Flint's nose being inspired by Jon Bernthal is a misstep though. Might swap that head out.
At first, from afar, I thought that they over-corrected from the bright-techy stuff with Lady Jaye. She seems so bland, but up close there are a lot details that maybe could use a little colour or a wash to make them more apparent. I mean, I'm still happily going to get her!
I have gotten Lady Jaye but still need Flint. With the rumored 6" retro line I'm curious on who will be in it and what redos will show up.
Got in late but numbers have build up for this line in my collection.
We're still buried in Flint's and Lady Jaye's out in West Texas. They do make great customized rebel soldiers or generic troops though!
Last time I was this early, Robo was still known as Robokillah
Daaaaaang!
I really hope I can find these in the wild. I'm planning on using an X-acto on Flint's armor straight down the middle like I did to BeachHead and Roadblock, just to get a bit more range in articulation and display options.
I'm not going to hard into the GI Joe line so I'm using a few of them as a sort of modern day Howling Commando's with my Captain America.
Ooo, that's a good idea too.
think i may need to finally dip my toes into GI Joe. mostly cuz i feel like Flint and Jay could be used like general army person for other lines
I'd recommend against it, They're Really hard to find in stores and the scalpers skyrocket the price on Ebay
@@cloversgood_luck9290 isn’t that only for those cobra island guys?
@@jjboi6008 well at least in my area, Its hard to find any of the Regular releases.

Intro!!!
Don't care for Joe but I live your reviews, thumbs up from me
I'm thinking about getting a couple of flints for custom stuff seeing as he is partly the same as the viper and I can get repro head, vest and arm guards.
Underneath Flints armor piece the collar is a little ruber separate piece from the torso slight differnce in the actual collar and the medal that he has there

The dot behind flints ear is a microchip tracking device so lady jay can track him
I think Jaye looks like a great base for F.Greenshirts. That swap hair makes her even more customizable.
I can see her being reused for Jinx and Covergirl with a jacket.

I just saw the Zartan case the other day at WM. Not in the mood, I passed, a couple hours later, all six were gone. OFW.
First 6" Joes I've seen in months.
Learned if you want these and see them ... buy them because they're gone the next time you go back ...
Flint and Lady Jaye are both U.S. Army Special Forces (Green Berets) the pin on their chest is the parachutist badge of U.S. special forces airborne.
I'd given up on this line because I just can't find any....but...if I ever do run into these 2, I'll pick them up.
Great video!
I found my Lady Jaye in a local grocery store. No luck on Flint yet. Sttill got them on pre-order online.
What kind of grocery store sells action figures?
For real, must be outside the U.S.
@@Lacaframalama HEB in Texas carries them.
Those are cool, so like they will be in stores when the preorders hit sometime in 2023?
Love the review, just wondering if the sewing machine oil is ok with the plastic parts. Does it wear them out or disintegrate the plastic?
You killed the into Robo.
"I put a drop on each ball." 🤭
If this is like your Scarlet redeco review, I should actually see Lady Jaye in stores in 2 months!
Grew up with the Line. Love it. Give me more..
Hair dryer or warm water to loosing up the joints so u can move them without breaking them👍
Looking forward to the Mezco versions of these. They won't need to make many to make me happy
Oh my GOD I’m only 17 but I grew up on Real American Hero. I had older action figures and oh my GOD this line is destroying me, because I’ve only got the repaint Scarlet (stupid distribution!!) and I saw pimp Destro once. I want MORE!!!
