GI JOE SNEAK!!!

[The Mike]

I'm thinking Scarlett will be the next one released after CC. Lara Croft in styling and basic look isn't too far off and something tells me that the two were related a little closer that we'd think in R&D...

I hope they mix it up pretty well between baddies and good guys. I also hope they don't give us just masked characters for a while. I want to see right away their take on classic characters like Shipwreck and Duke.

Wonder what they will do with buff characters? IMO the tall Buck is not acceptible for a figure like Roadblock unless they designed an outfit that covers the scrawny arms. Did they develope a bigbody Prometheus?



Except for Serpentor I really don't see any problem figures like SW (Vader, Stormtroopers) and LOTR (Hobbits, Gimli, Sauron).

We (pretty much) know that Cobra Commander will be the next figure announced. And he's an obvious choice even if the info wasn't leaked out prematurely. I wonder who the third character will be. SS indicated that "more" figures would be revealed at SDCC, implying two or more. I wonder who the front runner will be after Snake Eyes and Cobra Commander.

As I've said before I hope its a Cobra "trooper" character (either Trooper, Officer, or Crimson Guard) but I'm dying to know what so many other characters are going to look like.

I'm gonna say Duke. And I hope is is a 84 version.

Not likely for complexity, but I'd love a Serpentor if it's based of the 80s Cartoon design, I'm not a fan of some of the others but one based on that, I'll buy in a heart beat.

 

[EVILFACE]

If SS could actually get a snake skin like material for Serpenter's outfit, that figure would rock.

Hell yes, giant Cobra head and all! That would rock!!

That's not necessarily the case anymore. We shall see.

 

[Deeznutz6]

Maybe Storm Shadow...

80 $ a figure and some new knee articulation...

[EVILFACE]

lol, special knee articulation.

 

[IrishJedi]

Yeah, someone needs to tell toynewsi.com that this is a whole new body (most likely the Prometheus).

 

[Khev]

I'm gonna say Duke. And I hope is is a 84 version.

IIRC they had a guy dressed up as '84 Duke in the Superbowl ad so I'd say that's a pretty strong indicator they realize its his iconic look.

 

[EVILFACE]

Yea, they had Duke and and a 86 General Hawk, which would rock.

 

[Khev]

Yeah, I prefer the first version of pretty much every figure except for Snake Eyes and Hawk.

 

[The Mike]

My money is still on Scarlett.

 

[Khev]

Scarlett would be a cool choice. Obviously the female buck is far from stellar but they can still make a pretty decent female figure with it.

 

[Darklord Dave]

Well, at least I don't have to be lynched now.

It's still early...

 

[screamingmetal]

I don't think the next after CC will be Scarlet or Duke, I think they'll want to do characters that appeal to them the most. It subjective, but I really see Storm Shadow as being next in line of popularity. If it's a Joe, it'll be Flint.

 

[creature4000]

I hope it's duke! Wonder if he'll come with an American flag?
