I saw it on Fwoosh.
Yeah they have to be doing other releases of Baroness and Cobra grunt. An angry mob would be dragging Dwight out of his house. |

I think it's because they're going to go up for pre-order tomorrow through Target and no other options were listed. They might not be exclusive but then again if they weren't certainly Pulse would also have been mentioned.

Ahhh okay, I doubt these will be Target exclusive, to make the most recognizable army builder an exclusive would be like making the Black Series Stormtrooper an exclusive haha

The "Cobra Island" mission logo on the packaging has me thinking that these will be exclusives to the line, but at most these will only be variants to figures that will also be released in the main line. During one of the GI Joe livestreams, store exclusives were mentioned: "The goal with all of our exclusives is to put the characters in mission specific gear that will lead them into the line as the story builds."

Hasbro forcing you to buy a dinky looking motorcycle just for Baroness is not cool. At least give her the Ferret ATV or something.

Watched the site like a hawk, 9:00 hits, refresh the page and the Cobra troopers sold out in 2 seconds... Literally 2 seconds!

I'm sorry to use profanity but... I'm so fucking pissed. I know they're just toys but to see sneakerbots buying all these up for scalpers really chaps my ass!

Damn. I didn't see this news until a little after 9:00 this morning. Sucks that they sold out that quickly. I don't get it. Why is spending our money on this hobby becoming so hard?
Anyway, regarding the figures themselves, I think they look amazing! Love that Beachhead (he's one of my favorite Joes). Really like the absence of gold on his outfit. Overall, really great updates to the designs all around. |

I feel the same way about them in stores. Joes should be on shelves here but scalpers have swarmed and bought them all up according to a few employees ive talked to at a few diiferent stores. And online is on permanent pre-orders so eff it. Woulda been nice to get an se and scarlett but im not buying from scalpers.

Don't buy from scalpers, and they'll not go away. They'll move on to the next hot thing. It's like organized crime. Legal this and they will go away...not.
Yeah, DUKE OF NEW YORK ROADBLOCK. He's A #1. Look out Snake-Eyes Plissken. So we get a new head for Marvelous Marvin, but not a new Cobra Commander head for the 20 repaints of Cobra Commander. Cobra troopers should be available by the case at Hasbro Pulse, but that would make too much sense. Baroness with ugly cycle. IS that a helmeted head she comes with or what? |

So stoked I got a decent deal on Snake Eyes and Destro the other day. Is the Cobra Commander with the lighter blue some kind of exclusive?
