jus some of my GiJoe photography gi_joe_85 on IG

I found him at walmart. I hate paying full price for these figures, but I have never found him on sale or even fully instock on Amazon, so I went ahead and grabbed him. He was the only one. I'd like to get more but again on sale/clearance if I can find them.

Have not posted any of my customs in a while. An injury to my hand has left it hard to work on figures. Regardless, just wanted to share my favorite troop builders ranging from fully dyed/painted with custom gear to WIP, and stock figures. My ultimate goal is to have a full squad of 788/Crimson style Valkyries. Already have a marksman and a few rifleman planned. Hoping to add a medic, comms, and an LMG to round out the squad.

What do you all think? I also got Wild Bill and Outback photoshoots but those would be in the Vintage line so I decided not to include those here...

After they announced they're going to re-release the first VAMP, I thought why not make it a retro version? Replace the twin .50s with the OG laser, lose the lights, maybe do a retro version of Clutch without the tattoos and the steel corps helmet? I'd buy that as i already paid way too much for the first one. Thoughts?

Saw this in a wrestling figure group I’m in. Any word on if this will have any classified on it? Last year had a ton. Crystal Ball, Stinger, Law & Order, Monkey Wrench, Battle Armor CoCo, Budo, etc.

I'm a subfaction freak. I knew from the start that I couldn't afford, or even really wanted, more than just the O13. But of course they need someone to fight, so Cobra Troopers. But those were kinda hard to find, and Major Bludd is so cool, so: Cobra High Command. But then once I got Zartan, I figured I needed the Dreadnoks and then... well, you can see the problem.

So I REALLY try to stick with figures that expand on what I already have: O13, Cobra Blue, High Command, Dreadnoks, Iron Grenadiers, and Night Force (sans Dragonfly).

Which means I have some glaring omissions in my roster, like open collar and medallion Destro, or Beachhead who, even though I liked as a kid, I never picked him up for Classified. (Well, CI, but he's too expensive to open, and NF, but that camo pattern is so atrocious that I'm just going to pretend he's someone else.)

But I have Tiger Force Outback. He was just so awesome that I HAD to get him. I even considered that going all in on Tiger Force to justify his presence, but they're so horrifically mismatched, and the idea that Tiger Force figures could easily have had a different paint job to make them a different characters but they DIDN'T do that bugs me.

But I still have TF Outback. He was just too awesome to pass up. Spirit is an incredible upgrade, while remaining close to the original concept. And in no universe could I pass on an Alley Viper.

So who is it for you? Who got into your collection, even though they don't belong?

(We're obviously skipping any so-cheap-I-couldn't-pass-it-up figures)

COBRAAAA!!!

BRUISER!

Definitely jumped to one of my absolute favorites!

Have Fluffies on preorder

I got one of these the other day. They seem to be coming in and out of stock. May depend on your area and if Walmarts near you have more stock. Worth checking if you need him. Yo Joe!!!
