My fav modern 3.75 to date.
Techno is cool too..but Airtight is a fantastic figure.

That was my concern too with Airtight but he came out fantastic! I'm actually really glad he wasn't released as part of the 25th series. He would've been a lanky disproportioned mess riddled with crappy parts reuse.

I am as well. The knees ankles and wrists would've been jacked. Instead, he's actually pretty durable. I love how the helmet fits over the hood on his suit. He's still on your To-Do list, right?

Re: GI JOE 30th Anniversary
I don't even consider Airtight to be part of the Renegades line, to be quite honest. Just like Lowlight isn't "really" a Pursuit of Cobra figure.
I'm really glad Hasbro's hiding classic characters in these new lines!

Re: GI JOE 30th Anniversary
Here is my modern 4-inch collection (25th/RoC/Resolute/PoC/30th/Renegades). It has every character that has been released apart from the RoC Kamakura. Enjoy:

Are they really?
Maybe the distribution is finally catching up with demand. Seems like Renegades Storm Shadow is showing up in stores too.
I know that up here in Canada, the local Walmart is getting new GI Joes... first I've seen in a long, long time. It's just the Hazard Viper wave, but it's SOMETHING.

Same here guy, I'm thinking it's the addition of the other languages that is delaying the waves.
