For the ARAH line? They made one per year ever since the line started in 1982, but didn’t make any more after Jinx in 1987.
It wasn’t until the Ninja Force Scarlet came out in 1992 that a new female toy was made. Then no female figures again in 1993 and 1994.
Was always curious about this as a kid growing up with the toyline.
1-I wonder if the producers and influencers from Hasbro will learn from past mistakes (both in film and wave 1 of Classified) and put forth a team of Joes with a look and feel closer to the iconic characters we’re used to
2-I wonder what the tie-in toys will look like? Will they be similar in scale to the old MASK figures, 2inch Joes with Transformer vehicles?
The HISS fire team though they had a drop on enemy armor, but the MOBATs Countermeasures, Anti-Threat technology intercepted and nullified that RPG
I was going to leave him in package, because I was so impressed with the retro card back design, but I caved. You can’t really appreciate how good these figures look until you spend some time with your hands on them.
As a kid that watched both I always felt that the cartoons were about even with maybe a slight nod to the Joes but as an adult the movies aren't even close. Why do you think it played out like that? Are CGI robots just automatically that much cooler?
I have a couple I like to watch like this, MI3 comes to mind.
Like if Owen Davians organization were Cobra and the Mission force were the Joes.
Anyone else?
Ahhh
Well someone’s been at the Cobra supply of vitamins! Enjoy good health! In this video let’s look at the Super 7 Ultimates Cobra Trooper, so let’s talk about him more on TAKTAK Toys!
If Hasbro lab did a Uss Flagg would you go all in at what would be a fair price?
G.I. Joe Classified collection's Scrap-Iron gets a bit carried away with his new Anti-Armor Drone.
Set pieces by Gridiron-Studios...
I set out to make these just for me, then I decided to look at all the potential uniform and emblem colors and got carried away from there. They are about 4 inches and diameter and close to .3 inches thick with the cork backing.
Until now, I've only sold my 3D printed items in person but I set up an Etsy store if anyone is interested. https://murphyinnovative.etsy.com
Honestly this probably my favorite toy in the line when I was young. It was just so big and cool. I think if was in an episode of the cartoon, but I can't remember which one.
