Got mine yesterday. Almost looks like the lens/front frame isn't wide enough, causing the stems of the glasses to poke out, off of his head. Man, I love the Dreadnoks, so this was a gut punch for me. I'm hoping someone makes some better-fitting glasses for him!
Ripper reminds me of Woody Harrelson in Natural Born Killers. I'm on the fence about getting all the Dreadnoks. Road Pig & Gnawgahyde 100% sure. Torch & Monkey wrench probably too.
I'm all for removable shades, helmets etc...if done well. I've seen other figures where the arms on a pair of glasses slot into grooves sculpted into the hair, to hold them in place. I was just a kid/young teen in the 1980's. A long time ago, but I remember the Zartan's crew added some variety to Cobra's soldiery. So I'd be happy to add some to my collection.
I remember getting this figure "the 3 3/4 version ofc" for what we call "Sinterklaas" in my country. I was 8 and this character together with the Lego postal office. It was a Saturday morning. I can't wait to get my hands on this. It's on its way from Hasbro Germany as I'm typing.
If you fiddle with them enough you can get them to stay behind his ears on a display but they are super easy to knock off. The ears should have been sculpted just a tiny amount further away from his head to give it a more secure gap to plug the glasses in.
I can’t wait to fill the Dreadknoks roster. The glasses thing is disappointing. I think the problem will be with all of them. Like you said. Super glue em.
I will probably glue the glasses on mine once it arrives this week and wait for some time to get a extra head foddee from eBay once the price drops... Might have to do that with all of Zartans crew because seems like those guys all come with some type of eye wear. Good review I hope I don't regret getting this one✨🤔🤔
Yeah, I’m definitely going to get all of them… G.I Joe wouldn’t be G.I Joe without the Dreadnox!! The glasses are troublesome but I’m still going to pick him up!!! I want them to make ROADPIG!!
Good ole BBTS, coming through two months early. I ordered one, should be coming soon. Shame about the glasses. Why are they phoning it in all the sudden? Was there too much pressure to get to 100 by the end of the year?
I just think stuff like glasses is just a tough one to sculpt/create maybe? I know CI Roadblocks don't go on too great, neither do my Slaughter or AF Slaughters
Love Dreadnoks, will get them all and I hope their make their vehicle. I think Buzzer looks great, my only gripe are the sunglasses, definitely should have been sculpted.
Another great review. Hasbro seems to take one step forward but then 2 step back. Love the Dreadnoks, I love to see a “Cold Slither” pack, that or a Thunder Machine or bike.
I really wish they’d just sculpt the glasses on. Nobody was asking for them to be removable. I don’t even think it looks that good when they do it. Baroness looks like she has coke bottle lenses.
its pretty clear that the reason they didn't sculpt the glasses on his head its because they're gonna use 99% of that head sculpt for Retro cardback Duke!! Other than that he looks awesome.... and also he would've look better with a screaming face but again, its probably because of the Duke thing!?
Zerten, 😆🤣😂 Destro/Barbecue legs and boots. Not a fan of those legs either. Should have came with a backpack to carry all his junk. Think some hot glue can fix the glasses issue. Hope Gi Joe Hasbro team gets their head in the game and gives us bikes for these dudes at some point. Cant have Dreadnoks without their bikes. Thank you for the review.
This is the Retro Cardback Zartan, the Master of Disguise version has silver and black armor, both videos of these two figures are on my channel (if you can look past how I pronounce Zartan 😂
Glasses should have been goggles and gone all the way around the head. Love the Dreadnoks. Hope we get a bike for them that doesn’t come with a figure so we can afford to buy multiples.
My example has a non painted face from cheeks down looks like plastic tone flesh but super shiny transparent any way you could let me know if your example is the same. Thanks, Steve
There is obviously going to be reuse and to be fair, at least the pins are the same color so they can be overlooked but this particular set of legs and boots have always given me issues with posing and have been used 4 times (at least) already
Hasbro wasting the entire thing by using cheap quality plastic and colors. Such an OG character with such good face mould, yet bad choice of accessories and QC issues. Please Hasbro, don't ruin the experience for us.
He needs a jerrycan and a Alice frame , doesn’t chainsaws need fuel 😂 or is it the same Cobra magic like black skin on Range and Tele 😂. Lol, Zartin 😂 thanks for the review bud, never been interested in Dreadnoks . Weren’t they the 3 stooges comedy relief? Needs a stand, not fancy packing ( coffin and cardboard fancy box )
Just got him today bro! I said the hell with it and glued his glasses down. 😎
The goggles should have been wrap around.
All in on Dreadnoks. Shame about the glasses… buzzer has such a great backstory wish they’d included some of it in a bio on the box.
His bio on Pulse is similar to the beginning of his OG Filecard

Dreadnoks are my favorite subgroup. Buzzer here is a must have

Love the Dreadnoks! Maybe a missed opportunity to show him on a toy motorcycle or ATV!
Great Review as always Bobby. Torch has been announced and they said he will come with a flame effect
A good, informative review of Buzzer and his accessories. Moreover, concerning the Dreadnoks, I'll buy all of them.

Hell yeah I will be adding him and Ripper to my collection. Sucks to hear that his shades don't secure firmly to his face

Great review. Mine should arrive later this week.

A classified Roadpig would be so awesome!
Yes indeed
Roadpig has been announced too

Cool looking figure
Love Dreadnoks, will get them all and I hope their make their vehicle. I think Buzzer looks great, my only gripe are the sunglasses, definitely should have been sculpted.
I have one pre-ordered, but I'm hoping he hits clearance at some point so I have the extra gear for customs.
I wonder if the Valaverse SGT Slaughter shades fit better. Maybe slap on the viper googles.
Like the Buzzer, however the glasses might be a problem!
Baroness has the best sunglasses to fit under the hair
Not bad but they put an ugly groove in the side of her face. They should've put the slot in her hair. Being black it would've been hidden.
Pretty sure Torch was announced already. No digital renders yet, just a pipeline along with Gnawgahyde. Can't wait to build the dreadnoks
I’m grabbing ripper just for the head sculpt
If the glasses are that bad, why not just give him welding goggles.
Another great review. Hasbro seems to take one step forward but then 2 step back. Love the Dreadnoks, I love to see a “Cold Slither” pack, that or a Thunder Machine or bike.
Definitely picking up all the dreadknoks
I really wish they’d just sculpt the glasses on. Nobody was asking for them to be removable. I don’t even think it looks that good when they do it. Baroness looks like she has coke bottle lenses.
I put some sticky shenanigans between on the back of the glasses and pressed it into his eyes. So they're padded like he just had his eyes dilated

I agree the glasses suck I had to put a drop of glue on each side to hold them on
Zerten, 😆🤣😂
Destro/Barbecue legs and boots. Not a fan of those legs either. Should have came with a backpack to carry all his junk. Think some hot glue can fix the glasses issue.

It should be inserted inside the hair like Baroness.
I believe torch has been announced as a pipeline figure for 2024
Def love the dreadnoks I've got buzzer n ripper ,zartan have to get zamora the dreadnoks have always been my favorite out of the gi joe line
Now if we can just get a Thunder Machine!
Who's Zartin? Is that like that New Orleans rice?
Only dreadnok i have os zaranna and he looks awesome on my maisto honda fireblade bike 8 shoudl get more him and a bike to go with him
Great and honest review. Is that the master of disguise Zartan?
This is the Retro Cardback Zartan, the Master of Disguise version has silver and black armor, both videos of these two figures are on my channel (if you can look past how I pronounce Zartan 😂
I think copperhead is also related

The figure looks like Dee Snider, the lead singer of Twister Sister (by wearing glasses and hair)
Pins in the legs WTF...Come on...
There is obviously going to be reuse and to be fair, at least the pins are the same color so they can be overlooked but this particular set of legs and boots have always given me issues with posing and have been used 4 times (at least) already
@@beesbattlegroundsyes re-use where applicable. However, not from a wave 1 character. In my opinion it just feels like a step backwards.
Just gloo the glasses! 🤭
I used my hot glue gun to attach my glasses. I can easily get rid of the excess and take it off completely if I want to without harming my figure.
That sounds like a great idea.👍

Maybe it's powered by dark energon 🤔
@@beesbattlegrounds 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Man had to laugh I can just feel the obvious frustration you have when it comes to hasbro and the shades/glasses accessories. It makes No sense
Looks like dirt lol why do they insist on putting arm hair on some of these figs outback looked like he had Cheetos all over his arms
Yeah I don't get the appeal of having the deco
