Boss Fight Studio's Vitruvian H.A.C.K.S have been shipped to the kickstarter backers, pre-orders are now being shipped so you should get notice soon.

>>Other news
>HissTank continues to be Salty as fuck after getting blown the fuck out two years in a row.
Seriously why do they do that? Is it because he wants a 6inch line?
>>5716243
Get fucked. This one started before your one and you copy pasted the info from this one.
>>5716229
Who the fuck knows. It's the same shit over and over again. Joe fans can act like anti-vacc people sometimes. Heres staggering evidence we're getting a line in 2016 and a new mass release line after. and heres a single report from someone who overheard someone who heard from hasbro we aren't getting anything....guess what they and the fucking idiots over there believed?
>>5716224
>HissTank continues to be Salty as fuck after getting blown the fuck out two years in a row.
What does this mean? I'm not up on the inside-baseball stuff
>>5716295
Basically Hisstank reported for the last two years that Joe was dead even though both times there was evidence that we were still getting product with confirmation from Mark Weber (G.I.Joe Brand manager) and the "Christmas Story" from Ron Rudat. they still swept that information under the rug and ran a "Death of the line" articles and anyone who brought up the previous remarks were retarded optimists or hasbro shills. This time when proven wrong they started backtracking and going on about how they were "mislead" or "given wrong information"
just assholes going for clickbait and getting burned.
>>5716135
The puzzle.
>>5716315
Hisstank is working with Hasbro to make Joe fans think it''s over, to create a panic to increase sales of what product is still available, and to create more excitement when new product is announced. Marketing 101
>>5716921
Scarlett and Zartan go in the upper left.
SDCC Zartan is built from the Retalaition Zartan and Snake-eyes with armor and head from the 25th anni version. he looks amazing I can't wait to have him.
The new Scarlett
transformers are shit I never liked them and hasbro wasting precious plastic on these shitty crossovers are hurting my feelings.
>>5717960
TransGenders, loving your brown eye
>>5716224
High speculation based on the crossword for the following figures:
Zap- based on there being a three letter word and the only other option really for it is Bat.
Zombie Viper- heavily speculated on as a solution right now. It is to note that 50th Cobra Commander came with red Compound Z bombs.
Duke- There's a four letter space and not many Joes fit it; we also got a crappy 25th Duke last wave, so this may be a more legit one.
Doubleblast- aka Roadblock. Roadblock is a major character and we've yet to see an updated figure for him. The name change could be anyone's guess, but from my pov, it could have to do with that The Rock is Roadblock in the film universe and may be to separate the two.
Storm Shadow- based on two of the solved answers being Zartan and Scarlett, the answer connecting down appears to be Storm Shadow.
Snake Eyes- Appears to be a solution in the puzzle and more easily fits.
>>5717982
> Roadblock is a major character and we've yet to see an updated figure for him.
Was the Resolute set not good enough? granted it was somewhat limited in its availability. I payed late comer tax for my resolute pack but I love that Roadblock, Beachhead and Flint.
>>5718385
Honestly I love the Retaliation version. I am perfectly happy to have The Rock in my GI Joe crew.
>>5717941
>>5717960
Good thing the Powerglide can just be a Red Rattler.
>>5716966
>>5718461
The Hiss tank isn't bad either.
>>5717960
2 more with marky mark.
suck my dick fucker hahahahaha
>>5718477
What are the possibilities of a reissue in non retarded colors and for normal not-rapey price?
>>5718477
And how's the troop compartment? I remember it was cramped for ARAH style figures already.
>>5718792
No Idea.
>>5718794
It's a repaint of the DTC COBRA HISS so I guess it can accommodate 2-3 troopers.
>>5718477
More pics
>>5716315
This is what he's saying now.
>>5719437
Thats fuckin cool. I wish I could blame my mistakes on executives.
>>5717982
>>5718385
the resolute version is a great update to the RAH design but doesn't hold water to today's standards of articulation and sculpting add to the fact that the Renegades version of the character started making pre-production rounds it's lead a lot of people to believe we might be seeing him again.
Zap makes sense. a classic o13 character and a Latino member of the team time to get him POC/Modernized he can go with the rumored RnR.
I'd rather have an updated Hawk than Duke but I'll take what I can get.
>>5718792
Not bad I would guess.
50th 2014 sdcc was the danger at the docks recolor.
2015 the desert duel with 2 extra figs, the skystriker recolor
This year we may see both featured in a set. Maybe a cobra attack pack and a joe defense set? Who knows at this point.
>>5719317
You can modify the inside a bit and make room for 5 joes. Just cut the bottom of the huge cylinder that is used for the turret. I turned it into more of a seat for the gunner and that saved a lot of space.
>>5719921
Here's with the doors closed.
>>5718477
>SDCC Zartan
This MF looks great, It's a shame that this is SDCC exclusive.
>>5718477
Is this Zartan using that awful RoC body with single jointed knees and no ankle articulation?
>>5721059
Most likely is the Retaliation version.
>>5721059
Using the snake eyes lower legs from the retaliation figure. Probably ret zartan torso. Just hope they dont goof the arms up in the factory like the 50th.
Got the 4 pack in, good stuff
This has probably been done before, but this really looks great. Much better than the original Channing Tatum looking head.
>>5722050
It's my favorite Duke head for sure.
>>5722050
Thank you. I've wanted to see this head swap since forever.
>>5722050
>>5722249
>>5722230
Had mine like that since... oh at least 2013. His default Resolute head was alright, but Renegades was just too good not to swap it.
>>5721847
Man I still need to grab this set. How's the more animated looking figures with the hips? They look like smaller Sigma 6 figures without the plug holes. WANT
>>5717982
>Duke- There's a four letter space and not many Joes fit it; we also got a crappy 25th Duke last wave, so this may be a more legit one.
I hope so,Duke's my favorite Joe,and I've been waiting on an updated 92 since the line began,with the Battle Corps version right behind it.
>>5717982
I think you're way off.
>>5722494
Small Sigma 6 is the perfect way to describe them, they're quite fun. Wish they had wrist and neck hinges.
>>5722526
Looks like a really amusing wave.
>>5722526
You've memed too far friend, it is time to stop posting.
>>5723868
Wondering if the stupid fake holster could be replaced by a marauder one?
It should work. I know castors also have replacement holsters for the Resolute Duke and those that share his legs.
>>5724600
Not bad
>>5724614
Nice.
The color is a bit off, so maybe it works better on the resolute pack Snake Eyes as he's a bit lighter.
Gonna have to try it someday.
thanks!
>>5724629
I think it's more he plastic finish than color. The head's almost matte while the body is more glossy.
Never got my hands on those 7 packs, not enough money back in the day. Only ever picked up a loose Flint.
I really hope the 50th SE looks like his new RAH version about the only way I'd care about a new SE at this point.
>>5724614
I removed the black coat and arms and replaced them with the arms of city strike SE
>>5725117
What do you not get? Snake-Eyes got a new look in Real American Hero 226.
>>5723868
>Wondering if the stupid fake holster could be replaced by a marauder one?
Meandnooneelse or pugsley (changed his name, can't remember which is correct) made custom holsters. You can find them on Raginspoon's site. A lot better than the fake shit hasbro gave us, and they sure like to use those legs too.

Thats right they made the most wanted colors exclusive to Joe Con.....I really hope these go on the main site in awhile

From the same thread
So jelly of that guy's custom skills
>>5725562
>>5725488
>the most wanted colors exclusive to Joe Con
Really?
I don't like those hues they are using, look like crap.
>>5725488
I just saw pic related in Marauder's site.
>>5725117
>>5725409
I thought you were talking about the toy line arah and didnt understand shit.
From what year is that comic? Looks similar to a VvV version.
>>5725409
Heh Snake-Eyes got a new "look". Boy did he ever.
>>5725409
They got rid of the cool knightesque eye design? Trash.
>>5725576
Damn. Those are awesome.
Wow, Scarlet and Powerglide look great. Too bad about the SDCC part though. Also good to hear something may be in the works for this year. I don't collect alot of GIJoe but a friend of mine does and he hasn't had much to look forward to the last few years.
>>5716084
Thanks for using one of my pics. Haha did anyone ever notice snake eyes chillin in the back?
Managed to pick up Black Series 1/18 Phasma(plus a spare), OldLeia, Han, and a First Order trooper that didn't have awful paint, 5 bucks each at Walmart. Really wish the hips were better on Phasma, but at least they're not T-crotch. Also wish Hasbro would give us swappable hands, but can't expect that.
>>5728566
>First Order trooper that didn't have awful paint
Those exist?
>>5728572
Surprisingly, yes. Scooped it up instantly, because at 5 bucks, why not. It makes me happy that the hands on it are both 'sword-tilt' hands rather than one being that kind and the other being 'palm-tilt' like Phasma has.
>>5728162
That's why it was chosen Cobra-weed-stash-anon

Here's hoping next weekend's Joecon Hasbro reveals are decent.
>>5731232
Me too, I can´t wait to see the answers to the Pulse Crossword.
>>5731646
wait.. Pulse? did Hasbro killed a bunch of fags over a puzzle?
>>5731770
Mods will delete this but word is Hasbro hired the hit because they were using gi joes to well, figure it out. I dont want Obama/Clinton to drone strike me.
Messing with extra parts and figures and ended up with a more "Creole Beastmaster" look for Croc Master. I dig it. If only I could find Indy's whip.
>>5732223
Croc Master is an underrated figure. That bite scar on his arm, man...
>>5732223
>Croc master
remind me of this.
>>5731232
I'm hoping for a small playset or something that's base-related.
>>5732293
No playsets. The WM exclusive mini ones released during Rise of Cobra didn't sell well. The big Pit sold even worse.
>>5732349
Frankly, given how unimaginative the design of the Pit was, I'm not surprised. I own it, and the most interesting thing about it is probably the ping pong table.
>>5732349
>The WM exclusive mini ones released during Rise of Cobra didn't sell well
Fucking i wish.
My local WMs, in one of the largest metro areas in the world, had jack shit. I did a weekly tour in most walmarts in a 30 mile radius and i saw only one or two to prove that WM even carried the sets.
>>5732376
Curse of Walmart exclusives. Some stores carry a ton of something, others nothing. I remember one of my local Walmarts had a bunch.
>>5732279
I'm thinking RnR and Lazer Viper are gonna be confirmed and I bet we get a mass release of the SDCC rattler in classic colors or black.
>>5732293
>>5732349
>>5732358
>>5732376
>>5732491
The PITT should have been marketed as a Vehicle that could be a playset instead of a playset that could be a Vehicle I like the modern look of it but it needs a better paint job.
Playsets atleast Joe wise don't sell. But if things go well we might see that change with the Shared Universe stuff.
>>5717911
>>5717941
>SDCC set
New pics.
>>5733191
Never liked that headsculpt.
>>5733191
now show us her feminine penis.
>>5733191
>>5733192
The 25th anniversary one looked fine, now it looks like an Asian hooker.
>>5733191
okay those eyes are horrible.
I keep seeing stuff repainted that totally changes the way the character looks and this is one of those - for the worst.
Cow-Faced Lady J looks great with a repaint though.
>>5733024
There's no doubt we will see that Rattler in my view as a vehicle set. As for the Hiss tank, it's doubtful, since we already got the orange 50th one, and I think the SDCC one has some new tooling on the missles I think.
Rock N Roll seems very likely, though I wouldn't be surprised if we got Roadblock instead. I'm also thinking we'll probably get Zap and Outback. On Cobra's I can't tell really what we're getting. I'm kinda thinking Zombie Viper might be on the cross word puzzle, but can't be certain.
I have the Pitt set, it's not bad. I use it like Mother Base from MGSV and have my Joes being lifted in and out of hot spots in Ghost Hawks and my Eaglehawk.
>>5733674
>>Zombie Viper
as in a Viper for hunting zombies?
- or a ZOMBIE Viper?
>>5733764
As in a re-release of the Zombie Viper from the 30th wave. They were Cobra Troopers that had been infected with Compound Z and turned into mutant zombies.
http://www.yojoe.com/action/11/zombieviper.shtml
People often ask for a re-release and Hasbro has always been reluctant to do zombies much in the line, but 50th is aimed at collectors and filled with more hard to find figures, so it's entirely possible.
>>5733997
Hard to find? They should do 30th ann viper in blue then and Law Liotta but probably wont since they hate me.
>>5734000
I would love a rerelease of Law and Order.
>>5733997
I have 2.
All I want is 3 more.
(or 3 of Boss Fight's zombie line if that's first.)
My body is ready.
>>5733686
>>5733764
>>5733997
I want the Zombie Viper in pic related
>>5734312
There used to be a guy with like 50 or so of them. Some nice pics of them all in action. Can't imagine setting up 50 figures just for a some pics.
>>5734312
Five is a perfect number of them. I could have gotten more, but I settled for five and left any more I found for others.
>>5734431
Oh Lordy that would be nice. Zombie with reflective visor helmet / alt head.
Also.. WTF is going on with that Ash figure?
>>5734480
One of the customs guys made 100 various zombies.
He had a Dio with them storming a shuttle with a crew of Joe astronauts in the process of bugging out.
My PTE guys are my zombie bait - or a few have become snorks from S.t.a.l.k.e.r
would have gotten more if gi joes aren't so expensive in my country
>>5734532
Likewise
>>5734532
they were expensive in every country.
Hard as shit to find, army builders bought them all up when they were in stock day one, and scalpers could charge rape dollars for it.
Once met a cool bro who was selling his for $20... still rape dollars and i didn't buy it, but he knew he could have charged more.
>>5734522
>WTF is going on with that Ash figure?
It's a 3 inch caricatural figurine made by Kasual Friday.
>>5733997
I hope instead they release him with a few alternative heads instead of the tentacle arms. That would be sweet!
>>5734480
>TFW i have about 24 ZV and several zombies from the Zombie Initiative joecon set
>TFW when i paid retail and clearance prices on the ZVs cuse i live in a none scalper area.
>>5734532
I feel you.
Meanwhile sometime ago I read Boss Studio sculped zombies for another company soon on KS. Unfortunately I forgot the name.
Am I crazy to be considering shelling out $400 for a ZI set on ebay? I shouldn't do that probably. Maybe I'll just see about picking up most of the Joes (except TJ-Bang).
>>5735354
That's not bad. If you like most of the figures get it. I have it and the only figures i didnt like were the lab rats. If you only like a few figures then getting them individually might be your best bet.
>>5733191
>New Pics

The KS is late summer/early Fall, so they won't be here before next year.

>>5735354
>>5735759
Great but underrated set. I loved the eco-force figures and Zombie hunters would have been a great way to get the more...90's looking joes out. (BATTLECORP CROSSCOUNTRY) but it seemed to get over looked in favor of Tigerforce by the club. I think the Club site still has that set for 300 bucks though so there is that.
>>5736432
A good looking update and I can't wait to see it compared to the retaliation version of him
Bought the "Alpha" Owen from the Jurrasic world line. a quick review
The GOOD
>The bike is perfect scale and a good realistic color
>The gun while not a perfect version of the 45-70. Gov marlin featured in the movie its a new sculpt and can be carried by most wrist hinged joes.
> the head of Owen is a good likeness of Chris pratt and with some better paint I could see it being used for Star Lord, Navy Seals or even a better version of Owen.
The bad
> the body of Owen has about 10 points of articution and looks likes a dollar store bootleg
> the head isn't on a joe Style neck peg but a Star wars styled one so modifications have to be made.
>PAINT DAMN IT. Geez I have a dollar store CM punk figure that is better painted than the Owen Figure.
The.... Meh
> Raptor... I love dinosaurs so it's a good figure but if you bought the other releases of "Blue" you have it.
Overall I'll give it a 5/10 mostly because it's a quaity set for 20 bucks and is still leagues above what other mass release 1/18 figures have now. pick it up for 20 bucks or on clearance in a few months.
>>5736894
Any pics?
Heres the bike it's a repaint of the XmO bike so it's solid like the color.
Heres the Owen "figure" gonna reset the head and use it for joe customs.
and heres the gun.
it's a great sculpt but there is no way it's chambered for 45-70 Gov maybe 7.62x54r but not a pistol round.
>>5737234
>so it's solid like the color.
What did you mean by this?
>>5737781
sorry It's solid an I like the color.
>>5735354
Not crazy at all. I bought 3 of the vehicles for that set as well and have 8 Toxo Vipers and Cesspool. I spent the better part of a year just gradually picking it up piece by piece and the set rules.
I'd like to see them do another con set with the Headhunters and DEF.
okay.. after the Marauder reveal of the Exos as well as the K9 and others stuff I need a better job.
>>5736884
The Zombie set is $300? Do you have to be a member to buy from the club store?
>>5733191
>>5736432
Dumping the rest.
>>5740914
>>5740922
>>5740172
Yes. Its 40 bucks to become a member and if u signed up back in April you got a "free" figure which was Pythona
>>5740926
Love the box art, on all the SDCC TF/Joe exclusives.
What's your opinion on this?
>>5741055
Too cartoony for my taste.
Would it be possible to assemble an army of cute girl soldiers of evil?
>>5741061
Depends on what you find 'cute', but probably.
Thank The Lord for Zombie 2 packs.
http://joebattlelines.com/2016/06/18/joe-con-2016-hasbros-g-joe-2016-lineup-announced/

Look, I hate Brian Savage and their tendency towards bad headsculpts and terrible customer service and infrastructure, but even if we get a replacement convention, they're sure as hell not going to give us shit like Oilmaster and Scorponok.
Maybe we could get whoever does the TF vs GI Joe sets for SDCC to select our exclusives from now on.

BTW the Sky Patrol figures? Dog shit.
They recycled the dog shit Mutt mustache head and recycled the non-dirty version of POC Dusty head. None of the new figures are with a damn.
And the upcoming wave of figures are also dog shit. SAW VIPER? Of all of the convention exclusive figures SAW VIPER is the only one who gets a mass retail release?
Also how fucking hard is it to just give us a OG Iron Grenadier two-pack like the zombies?
And none of the figures are actually worth a damn re-issue-wise. Falcon was widely available as was Outback in his night force colors and Renegades Snake Eyes.
This is pretty shitty as hell.....

I backed for just one of the mandrill soldiers. Of by some chance the other evil guys get made I'd get them too.
>>5742079
Yeah fuck that. This is awesome news I'm excited about all these releases.

IM CRYING RIGHT NOW
CAPS LOCK = CRUISE CONTROL FOR INFINITE THANKS
Why is it NONE of the large, expensive Baroness collector figures are ever attractive/sexy/beautiful?
Seriously, both of Sideshow's Baroness figures look like ugly women/transgenders.
The Palisades bust wasn't half bad, but that's all we've ever gotten as far as a sexy, good looking Baroness. Sad.
>FemShooter
She's been a loooooong time want. That's amazing we're finally getting her.
>FemCobra Officer
Another one we waited too long for
>Rehash of best Snake-Eyes and best Storm Shadow
Good for those who don't have them yet, but kind of a pass for Me.
>>5742142
Because Baroness is a vague Eastern European. Those people look funny.
>>5741974
I mean like those rolls of fabric they have and those bags they put on top of their horses asses and then on the riders' shoulder when they park the horse.
>>5742156
>Because Baroness is a vague Eastern European. Those people look funny.
Half the pornstars in the world and the majority of the hot girls on cam sites are Eastern European. Get your eyes checked.
>>5742187
And Baroness is grimy-haired nerd with glasses.
>>5742187
hot exotic girls end up looking weird
They reach maximum ripeness at around 20 years of age and then grow into exceedingly hairy wrinkled crones by 22.

Hama always intended Baroness to be American; the cartoon people were the ones who gave her a European accent though and Hama was stuck with making her European.
Action Force (the "Baron Ironblood is Cobra Commander and his Red Shadow henchman Red Jackyl is Destro" micro-continuity version of Action Force) established Baroness as German but Hama always left the actual European nation she was born in vague.
Finally have some time to clean my room some, put my Greek shelf together again with some new additions from Panoramation.

that looks like a lot of fun

My Google-fu is subpar, but I managed to get this:
>Fellas, this is something I've been working on with my business partner for the last 7 years. As a fan of great action figures, we want to make sure that these measure up in every way.The initial lineup is slated for 12 figures (11, plus 1 KS exclusive). We plan to go to KS in the late fall of this year.
>Horses are planned, but not in wave 1. The "t-crotch" figures are prototypes we purchased several years ago from the cancelled 2001 Dusty Trails line and are just inspirations for where our line is going. The Stagecoach is going to be a high end goal for wave 1. There will be gear and acc sets peppered throughout the KS, along with some "blank" figures to put those sets on for designing your own yahoos. More information is available on the FB website. And there will be new digital sculpt reveals this week after I get home from Colorado. Look forward to hearing your thoughts.
>>5743111
that build is fine for marauder task force because a vest or webgear gets added over it. it looks like shit when they sculpt all of the details onto the torso. it will limit the range quite a bit. eagle force and the captain action shown figures have the same issue.

Lies after lies, I am under no illusions on this line.
>>5743236
What's the backstory?
>>5743385
Dusty Trails made 6" scale statue figures, with a smattering of largely-unarticulated 1:18 paratroopers. Among the aforementioned statue figures were a couple of cowboys that looked a whole lot like Johnny Ringo and Wyatt Earp as they appeared in Tombstone.
They prototyped some articulated (old school Bbi style) 1:18 military figures, but I don't know about any 1:18 western ones.
Link if you're curious as to what the military stuff would have looked like.

Oh I remember that company... they did a Samurai or two in the 6" statue scale, right? I remember thinking about buying some on clearance for their weapons but never did.
Why the assumption that they're lying though?
>>5743444
That's right.
I can't speak to the assumption, though. I'm interested to hear that as well
List if figures we're getting in FSS 5.0 according to news from Joe Con:
1- Steel Raven
2- Battle Corps Viper
In a similar fuck you fashion to those who bought Saw Viper because it was an exclusive, #3 is also a fuck you...
3- Darklon (He's gonna be a new modern version though.)
4- Salvo ( a very desired figure in my opinion)
5- Ambush
>>5742056
Does anyone know where I would be able to buy this zombie viper 2 pack?
6- Charbroil (in his classic colors)
>>5743713
Toys R US when it comes out in November
7- Battle Corps General Flagg
8- Scoop
>>5743681
How much does FSS cost again?
9- Raptor
>>5743740
Depends on if you're doing all the figures or just getting the membership. I know it's like over $300 for the FSS, but they can do it in payments, so must people do that.
10- Sneak Peak
11- Shattered Glass Xamot (based off of the club comic and will include a new head sculpt)
12- Gaucho (A repaint of Gung-Ho)
Of the new FSS figs I'm gonna pick up Viper, Steel Raven, Darklon, Salvo, Charbroil, Raptor, and General Flagg for sure.
They also announced they're doing a female Cobra Trooper 3 pack using the new female Cobra Officer mold.
Better pic of 50th Duke
>>5743748
Over $300 which you can also split up into 3 very inconveniently timed payments. Oh, plus a "processing" fee of several dollars every time you're charged. If one of your payments doesn't go through on time, they cancel you outright from getting any of the other figures until they hit the Club store. Because so many whined that the Club was selling singles too early cutting into their eBay profits, they Club is now slower to put up the figures at all as singles.
Basically you could get fucked either way.
Another look at the Cobra Officer
>>5743803
aw she's cute
The Urban Bat that will come with the Cobra Officer and Saw Viper
>>5743744
This is as close as we'll get.

No Crystal Ball? Bullshit.

Go Team Viper!

>>5743111
If it's supposedly coming from Broken Arrow Toys then I won't get within 50 miles of it. I have "heard" of people who got orders on time with no problem but those were the few. Heck TofuJessie was good for a couple of early orders but that fellow still owes me my last order(s) or Fifty bucks - which I believe er really expect to see now.
>>5743797
Awesome. The head looks like jungle Duke minus the bandana, so you could roleplay him as normal dressed Duke and then when the situation gets tense he gets rid of his jacket and puts on his bandana to let everyone known shit is about to get real.
Anyone else a little bit disapointed from the reveals at joecon? I mean they couldnt have even changed the color of the zombie vipers outfits to the cool red color scheme from the concept vault fromma few years back?
>>5744021
It's the head from the PoC Desert Battle Duke which does indeed look like the same minus the banana.
>>5744027
No, the fact that they're straight up reissues of the 30th Zombie Viper allows them to do it. If they change up the deco that'll take money out of the new tooling and paint budget for other figures.
They refer to the reissues of older figures as carry forward.
>>5744028
>>I can't picture him slashing them in half even if I'm getting hard just thinking about it.
