G.I. Joe thread - 2027 Preorders begin

Target’s fall Geek-Out is coming, and among the offerings will be a Ninja Force Snake Eyes and Jinx pack:

And popping up in Indonesia, Super7’s next wave of Reaction+ figures seem to have slipped out. Revealed was a Tiger Force Jinx (like a Target exclusive in the US), Flint and, likely, an “Arctic” Baroness. In addition, a carded SNAKE Armor was seen. This is interesting to me as while the toy was marketed as an “mind controlling exo-suit”, the cartoon frequently made use of the them as robots, prior to the arrival of the BATs.

Also, seems like either BBTS found some distributor stock or Hasbro is starting some reissues, because Classified Pythona is back in stock. At a beefy $85

With a big movie focus confirmed for 2027, I’m tempted to wait for more news about redoes or more cartoon centric takes.

So, a keen-eyed user over on the Hisstank Super7 ReAction+ thread noticed that the card that's tilted behind Jinx seems to have art for another figure. They go on to make strong case for the art matching Shipwreck, so make of that what you will.
I think Baroness is definitely an Artic version, I believe from the movie. The biggest question is the SNAKE armor: will it be able to hold a figure, or will it be a solid figure of its own? Also, will it have the rock disguise on the back like they did in The MASS Device, or be a "clean" version?

Turns out, there WAS a Shipwreck hiding back there!

Better images are out, next wave appears to be Flint, Shipwreck (naval coat), Arctic Baroness, and a SNAKE Armor

Naval coat Shipwreck is great! Looking forward to that one! Also, the Snake Armor specifically says "rock disguise", so I'd say that is definitely based on The MASS Device appearance.

Crud. I drank way too much vodka and ordered some 1/12 accessories I have nothing to pair with. I need a body in Marvel Legends/Classified/Valaverse scale. Preferably generic.

I'm rooting for that BBTS NPC line.

Good to know. The theme is perfectly up my alley, so if the quality is good this line could be for me. I've always been more interested in generics than named characters. I don't know. We're not the largest or wealthiest or loudest part of the market, but we're out there and we like what we like.

Oh lol, I checked the number. It's 239% funded, all stretch goals reached, with 25 days to go. Maybe we're a larger part of the market than I thought.

Lucked out at Target: Found the Super7 Ninja Force Cobra Commander (no Snake Eyes, oh well) and the prior ReAction+ Wave and nabbed a Chuckles. Chuckles wasn’t in the computer, so that was fun. Probably the same issue Walmart does where they have a recurring assortment and somebody forgets to activate the UPCs for sale because of varied shipping times.

Hasbro is apparently increasing/expanding their reissue initiatives. Word has come that, after Pythona popped up a couple weeks back, Nemesis Immortal is going up for (re)preordering at places like Our Sponsor Big Bad Toy Store!

In addition, Classified number 69, the Arctic BAT, is also seeing a new production run, this time in standard open faced packaging instead of the sealed box look.

I thought that looked different! I had it pre-ordered before I realized I had already bought one; some nagging thing in the back of my head said it didn't look the same, but I didn't have time to pull mine from its storage box yet.
