Gonna be honest, my excitement for Crystal Ball just took a dip. The words "This is not your classic Crystal Ball", and "taking Crystal Ball in an amazing direction" does not give me a lot of confidence.
I'd like to see Iron Grenadier Destro at some point with his air chariot. Also Night Viper, Lifeline, Roadblock v2, Sci Fi, Wet Suit, Hydro Viper, Deep Six, Mainframe, Voltar, Astro Viper, Blizzard. And so on. Please keep this line going strong
When people kept saying that they wanted Crystal Ball, it was not a new direction that they were talking about. It was the classic CB that set itself apart and attracted those who longed for it in the Classified Series. Why would Hasbro not embrace the classic CB?
Im with you a 1000% that is the type of thing that haslab needs to make something big not the vehicles that dont need all the lights. Keep the vehicles og and the price lower and mass production so we dont have to get scalped by the resellers because we missed the pre pay period
I know this is blasphemous, but I never liked visor Snake Eyes. I'm Team Goggles all the way, so that puts me all in for version 4. Also, Monkeywrench!
Some solid releases… I wish they would understand that we don’t need a figure with every play set or vehicle. Keep costs down by eliminating the figure. Also, for these haslabs, the additional figure should be selectable. Like, if someone buys three dragons flies, they should have the ability to choose the figure combo. Especially for the rattler. Imagine buying three and getting the same three figures? Make the figures interchangeable with selection. we are fronting the money for those things.
We don't need another Snake eyes, make more new figures what the hell come on Hasbro, there's still a butt load of figures out there, and what about the Fang Helicopter I loved that Helicopter or the Dreadnok Tricycle, and the Dreadnok Swampfire I can go on and on.
I’m sorry but that Cobra Bunker perimeter thing just sucks. It’s a frickin box like an outhouse. The Cobra Bunker should be round like the vintage one. It’s an easy pass for me I’ll be spending the money on one of those cool 3D printed Cobra Bunkers from Etsy.
V4 Snake Eyes is my favorite SE I’ve been waiting for this version. I really hope they really start pushing all the playsets and for a reasonable price
The defense perimeter would be a good size. The small bases from the old line can easily be the best for the figure size. I would like to see more of the smaller vehicles made for Classified.
Finally I’ve got a mindbender on pre-order! I’ve also been waiting for this version of Rock n Roll! Hasbro has brought my interest back from life support to stable condition! I’m quite sure we can get a Refrigerator Perry figure though!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I know if they release retro looking figures in the Classified line and then only release a special team (Tiger Force etc) on a retro card people will be p!ssed. The Retro Cards should only have the original look of the figure.
Next Haslab. GI Joe Mobat with Steeler. Zap as tier one. Short Fuze as tier two. Mortar outpost playset as a tier three. Please make this happen Viper Island. They listen to you.
Hasbro has been in this too long to NOT know what to do. There is definetly more to the way they operate than we know. Sometimes they seem intent on sabotaging themselves.
What about the exclusive G.I.JOE Figures!Nemesis Enforcer!Cobra Commander!give collectors to get other original and exclusive figures!I missed my opportunity to get the Exclusive Cobra Commander figure!
@viperisland I noticed a mysterious silhouette behind nemesis enforcer, who do you think it may be? I was thinking pythona but it seems it has attenas? I was also thinking a cobra la guard but the silhouette looked female and may have a cloak?
Hate to tell the sculptor but polar bears don't look like that. That looks more like an albino grizzly than a polar bear. Polar bears resemble black bears with longer necks. Grizzlies are brown bears with thicker fur and broad shoulders and huge paws
So, are they winding down the Classified line? All I'm seeing at Target lately is the retro line and I have no interest in that line. And can we stop with the Snake Eyes figure? There are others that should be made instead. Maybe I'm looking at this as an eighties kid when the pegs were full of figures. Now the Joe's are few and far between, plenty of that damn ninja turtle crap that no one seems to want.
😎 So nice Of Hasbro to lay off people before Christmas. Very Thoughtful. Greed at its finest....😡 News that a 25-year Hasbro employee was just laid off and 100 others. Also, they are talking about closing the Rhode island office I believe.
@Obex-v2l CEO's Want to make sure they get a good Christmas bonus for themselves with all the extra money That would have been Going to those employees they fired.👎
I have a concern with this line. Why do the powers at Hasbro make the decisions they make? Greed? Why do we have two lines now, the main line and the retro carded? Most of the last few waves have been slightly modernized versions of the OG designs. Why not just make them all retro cards and only have the boxes for the deluxe figs? Someone said something about making Crystal Ball a female. I wouldn't put it past them as a lot of the recent Cobra releases have been females. Guess they don't want the female Joe's going against male Cobras. And what's with the tattoos? I think the retro RnR is because a lot of fans didn't like the tats on the first release. I know I dont. The only figs with tats shlukd be Shipwreck and the Dreadnoks, and Storm Shadow V2 but just the Arashikage symbol, not the sleeves. That mess on Road Pigs belly proves it. I guess I'm just confused as to whom the target audience is with the playsets? Kids 8-10? Adults who were 8-10 in the 80s like me? Toy photographers?

Just wait for the retro carded version. I’m sure it will be better
@@joehenry9546 Yeah that's most likely what I'll do. I just hope it doesn't take 3-4 years to come out lol.
Pythona needs to come with a gem of that size answers all my questions.
Would still like a Monkey Wrench figure!
@@chrisjarvis2287
How many Dreadnoks are there?
@@chrisjarvis2287 I bet we get it with the Thundermachine in the next couple of years
@@KiefrumnHoward hard to say. Depends on who you count as a Dreadnok and which countries releases you count. There might be around twenty globally.
I'd like to see Iron Grenadier Destro at some point with his air chariot. Also Night Viper, Lifeline, Roadblock v2, Sci Fi, Wet Suit, Hydro Viper, Deep Six, Mainframe, Voltar, Astro Viper, Blizzard. And so on. Please keep this line going strong
We've seen a few Iron Grenadier now... I think Destro with his Despoiler/Air Chariot is a future exclusive.
Yes! Snake Armor!
When people kept saying that they wanted Crystal Ball, it was not a new direction that they were talking about. It was the classic CB that set itself apart and attracted those who longed for it in the Classified Series. Why would Hasbro not embrace the classic CB?
Because its also getting a retro release
So they avoid how the classic CB fared at retail in the 1980's.....
A G.I.Joe Classified Series Terror Drome = YES PLZ!!!!lololololol
Im with you a 1000% that is the type of thing that haslab needs to make something big not the vehicles that dont need all the lights. Keep the vehicles og and the price lower and mass production so we dont have to get scalped by the resellers because we missed the pre pay period
That retro Mindbender honestly looks like a bargain! Here's hoping for more playset and diorama pieces for fun photos and displays
Well...looks like I gotta pull some more overtime. Hasbro is killing my wallet
I know this is blasphemous, but I never liked visor Snake Eyes. I'm Team Goggles all the way, so that puts me all in for version 4. Also, Monkeywrench!

Honestly, I still have a hard time understanding how they have not made a Lifeline classified. It’s absolutely bizarre. Anyone know why???
We don't need another Snake eyes, make more new figures what the hell come on Hasbro, there's still a butt load of figures out there, and what about the Fang Helicopter I loved that Helicopter or the Dreadnok Tricycle, and the Dreadnok Swampfire I can go on and on.
Gotta renew trademarks somehow. We also haven’t seen a cartoon colors v1 Snake Eyes either, so it’s a bone thrown to the ARAH cartoon fans
Telling Hasbro not to make another Snake Eyes is like telling DC not to make another Batman
I really like that Trench Viper, much more than any Alley Viper. Even when I was a kid back in the 80’s I never liked the orange camo.
Does every animal have to have a scar over the eye?
I have no interest in glowing Snakeyes. But the Polar Bear vehicle with Scarlett, and the Snake armour? Yes please.
The trench Viper and retro Viper are definitely must haves!
Awesome update!

I’m still hoping for a V3 Snake Eyes.
this is a great start to my friday!
V4 Snake Eyes is my favorite SE I’ve been waiting for this version. I really hope they really start pushing all the playsets and for a reasonable price
The defense perimeter would be a good size. The small bases from the old line can easily be the best for the figure size. I would like to see more of the smaller vehicles made for Classified.
Anybody want the PACRATS?
Concerning the MASS device, I imagine the other 2 elements would have to come into play at some point. Otherwise, it wouldn't make any sense IMO.

I'm buying 4 of the playsets.
I'm waiting for Cobra-La...
An important feature with the defense parameter seems to be that you can tower them. As shown on the art.
Anything M.A.S.S. Device is a yes
When will we get a vintage V2 snake eyes
Need them we want all of it
Awesome news
Make Classified figures of Pursuit Of Cobra figures such as Jungle Viper, Destro with minigun, Firefly etc
Does anyone know the name of the Blind man that saved Snake-Eyes? I wonder if he's related to Kwinn? Hmmm I would like a Classified Kwinn figure.
The blind guy is only known by the name Blind Hermit
Let us rest Hasbro!! We can't take any more!!
They better not make Crystal Ball a girl.
So far, they've been good about not going down that road. I hope that they never do.
The woke era is coming to an end. Hollywood and the gaming industry are losing money hand over fist.
The funny thing is that there is a political commentator named Crystal Ball and it’s a woman
A woke Crystal Ball Saagar Enjeti two pack seems like a tough sell.
No more Gi Janes Please🫸
Wish the $100 Gi Joe vehicle was the Sky Hawk not the A.W.E striker. The Vamp is enough car for Joes at the moment
there is an unofficial one coming, FansHobby 1/12 VE-01 Air Eagle
Next Haslab. GI Joe Mobat with Steeler. Zap as tier one. Short Fuze as tier two. Mortar outpost playset as a tier three. Please make this happen Viper Island. They listen to you.
Battle armor Cobra Commander. Make it happen.
Hasbro has been in this too long to NOT know what to do. There is definetly more to the way they operate than we know. Sometimes they seem intent on sabotaging themselves.
Top 3 under used COBRA ??? 😊😊😊
What about the exclusive G.I.JOE Figures!Nemesis Enforcer!Cobra Commander!give collectors to get other original and exclusive figures!I missed my opportunity to get the Exclusive Cobra Commander figure!
I really hope the SNAKE armor set is modernized and not that bulky stiff retro style
Cobra Porto john... Kybo Commander...
undertow needed for the divers and bring on the snowcat!! :)
Aye do yall know anything about slice n dice gi joe classified
Is that Footloose or Din Djarin?
@viperisland I noticed a mysterious silhouette behind nemesis enforcer, who do you think it may be?
I was thinking pythona but it seems it has attenas? I was also thinking a cobra la guard but the silhouette looked female and may have a cloak?
Do we really need another Snake Eyes? Why not drop new characters? The Mass Device line should’ve dropped the Polar Battle Bear first.
Hate to tell the sculptor but polar bears don't look like that. That looks more like an albino grizzly than a polar bear. Polar bears resemble black bears with longer necks. Grizzlies are brown bears with thicker fur and broad shoulders and huge paws
How so?
Bad idea.. more figures instead please
Crystal Ball sucked in the 80s and he sucks now.
So, are they winding down the Classified line? All I'm seeing at Target lately is the retro line and I have no interest in that line. And can we stop with the Snake Eyes figure? There are others that should be made instead. Maybe I'm looking at this as an eighties kid when the pegs were full of figures. Now the Joe's are few and far between, plenty of that damn ninja turtle crap that no one seems to want.
Lol. You have to work at Target if you want to get a collectible from Target. Jk. I saw a package of Road Pig. just one.
Tired of hasbro packaging random shit we don't want to charge us more. Nobody wants a stupid bear with their snake yes nor a Trench Viper.
😎 So nice Of Hasbro to lay off people before Christmas. Very Thoughtful. Greed at its finest....😡

@eddyspurlock1299 good point of view, Hopefully things will get better. 👍
