I think you nailed it , yobo is static for cost reasons, with marrions monkey , it only had the monkey a pan and two flat pieces of the arc.The figure has no overlays either, so no fitment engeneering. That monkey is also a story point so, articulation becomes a selling point. I think of yabo as an excessory for porkbelly, like Junks vest, It was never in previous storylines and is just a bonus! would have been cool to have it articulate though. I mean we have automated transformers, so its all a question of cost over ability. great review!
Thank you and great points about Marion and her macaque. It all comes down to cost. But… I wonder if they could’ve upscaled her version and tweaked the sculpt?
Great review. Thorough and fair. Though I think you kinda brought me to the realization that I have no need to collect the Dic-era characters. So cancelled the preorder. Will probably check out on Deadnoks after Zandar. Or at least be picky. Thanks again.
It's a fun lookimg set I know Marvel Legends have remade some old moulds into pinless; surely the Joe team could do tue same. One that springs to mind is the Baron Strucker which was adapted from the Spider-Man UK buck.
(hi fives) You called the boar by the right name. CLYDE!!! Yeah, the pork belly thing is out the door. I'm a comic reader. Totally rolling with Clyde too. I wish I could say the quiver and bow is original. But no that came with Shadow Tracker. But you know what? I think Shadow Tracker had the best quiver pack and compound bow going. If they are gonna reuse a bow that is a good one. And not everyone was interested in Shadow Tracker. I'm with you on straps. I mean I had to get bazooka some. I tweak a harness from an extra Outback. I had to cut off part of it. But I did a pretty clean job. That was making me nuts. I'm gonna have to find a strap for this one. And yes That bothered me with macaque too. I mean when I play with macaque, I would like it to move around more Otherwise it won't be as enjoyable. plus macaque is too big. I'd rather my macaque smaller so I can rest it on Gnaw Shoulder. OMG see what you have done? LOLOLOLOL
Yo Baldy! Great review. I'm really looking forward to this one to arrive, but I can't help but feel a little disappointed with all the reuse and the monkey that doesn't articulate. I believe that backpack was the one that came with Shadow Tracker, paired with that bow.
I was never impressed with this figure couldn't get into it well my patients paid off found it at target today for $6.88 and at that price I'm enjoying it a lot more
I wish they were the same scale as WWE Elite figures (are they ?) cause you could make for some rad wrestlers and fix ups . But GI Joes were my favorite toy line in the 80s along with Pro wrestling , Heavy Metal and horror movies , that was my childhood lol !
Torches got me yesterday,and this one is on way from bbts, question for you,where did u get beachhead,i got cancelled from Amazon last month when they werer to be to me ,thanks
Quality review as always, mate. Couldn't agree more about the Nok art, use it ffs. Just want to school you on some Aussie vernacular. You pronounce Yobbo 'Yob-beau'. So, Yob like Bob. Lastly, Macaque deserves all the jokes, so thank you for getting 'em off.
Hey bro, fun review I didn’t order this one but where did you get it from earlier than pulse 🤣 BBTS? If so I bet it’s already sold out cause Torch sold out already at BBTS and it’s shipping now
I found the whole wave of the new Classified wave of Doc, Torch, Jinx and Night Creeper at a local Walmart……two separate times already……go check a couple of WMs out, you might find them in the wild….I was able to cancel my pre-orders on those 4 figures. Then, I just got Gnawgahyde today from Pulse.
What about the rat from Tripwire?!?! 10! :)
The quiver was with shadow tracker.

I find that Buzzer looks like Dee Snider.
Super fun video, Baldy. Glad to have you back reviewing...
Great review! Yes, the Dreadnoks should get their logo for sure. We’re like five Noks in the line and only Zartan got the logo.
When I was a kid Gnawgahyde was my second Dreadnok after Zartan I did get the other later but I love that figure as a kid I can't wait to get him
And it's not like the arms are seperate molds from the body or anything....🙄
Hilarious review! Well done Baldy!

Roadblock # 28 amazon exclusive also has no kneepad!, just if anyone looking to swap em out great review, always informative and fun !
He is the best Roadblock of the ones we’ve gotten. Good eye and thank you
I'm so excited to get him I remember opening the original on Christmas morning when I was a kid as well as the slaughters marauders equalizer
Well that explains why we got him
Waiting for my preorder of him can’t wait. Love the channel!
Awesome thanks for that. He'll show up for you before you know it
"mucock, mucock, mucock, mucock" 😅😂
Hahahaha
Definitely should use the Dredknok Logo

Bwhahaha1 I have unleashed macaque on the GI Joe world hahaha!! Yes, it's Clyde for me too

Fun review, you "Macaque Tuah'd" that thang. We need Monkey Wrench or Road Pig next.
The question is do any of the female characters come with a Hawk as a pet? A Hawk Tuah?
I was never impressed with this figure couldn't get into it well my patients paid off found it at target today for $6.88 and at that price I'm enjoying it a lot more
So much inuendo! The very definition of a YAH-bo! A "loutish, uncultured person" 😆 Great review. The quiver / bow comes from Shadow Tracker.
I wish they were the same scale as WWE Elite figures (are they ?) cause you could make for some rad wrestlers and fix ups . But GI Joes were my favorite toy line in the 80s along with Pro wrestling , Heavy Metal and horror movies , that was my childhood lol !
The Elite are a tad bit bigger but close to the Gung Ho Roadblock buck size
I didnt know Gnawgahyde was a stinker😂🤣
Looks very cool man. I have to buy it.😀✌️💡
All Dreadnoks are fun to have
Torches got me yesterday,and this one is on way from bbts, question for you,where did u get beachhead,i got cancelled from Amazon last month when they werer to be to me ,thanks
Beach Head shipped from Amazon. No warning or anything.

Thank you!! Thanks for correcting me on Yobbo. One da I'll say it right. For now I will just enjoy macaque
@@BaldyLockz Macaque has been enjoyed for a while now down under, so I completely get where you're coming from.
The backpack and bow n arrow are shadow tracker reuse
Good catch. I knew I saw them before but kept thinking Zartan for some reason. Probably because Shadow Tracker and Zartan are the same buck
Great Review
Thanks Chip!!
Great review🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hey bro, fun review I didn’t order this one but where did you get it from earlier than pulse 🤣 BBTS? If so I bet it’s already sold out cause Torch sold out already at BBTS and it’s shipping now
Im not getting G’hyde as it doesn’t appeal so much for my collector tastes in classified but great review and enjoyable
Yes, I just paid for Torch and Gnawgahyde. I pre-ordered them asap when they went up! 😮💨
I found the whole wave of the new Classified wave of Doc, Torch, Jinx and Night Creeper at a local Walmart……two separate times already……go check a couple of WMs out, you might find them in the wild….I was able to cancel my pre-orders on those 4 figures. Then, I just got Gnawgahyde today from Pulse.
Does the Tail on the Monkey come out? For when they bored.....
It does not. I know @SharkEyes macaques tail broke off
You forgot about Tripwires 🐀
I most certainly did. I will make it up to Apsara in a special video
No love for Aspara?
Great review. 😂😂
