Guys, just fyi, I found this to be sad/funny at the same time:

Hasbro put out an ad for a job in their company, saying they are distributors for famous brands such as Transformers, NERF, GI Joe (wtf, it's non-existent here now), etc. etc..

Just saying..they mention it but you don't see it  sad.gif  sad.gif  sad.gif

The cancellation is officially mentioned or..?
*
The Joe demand in Malaysia is too small for Hasblow Malaysia and hence they obviously shift their concentration to more popular brands.
So for us Joe boys,online purchase is the only way to fulfill our wants.
Sad but inevitable.

30th Anni is up for preorder now.
Excited?

Wave 2 focuses on Renegades and the only fig worth buying is ol' SE.I like his cool new backpack. thumbup.gif

wave 5 and 6 some good ones right? cobra trooper, cobra viper, hawk.

pics of some recent haul of mcfarlane goodness released more than a decade ago.
too bad nitro riders are not of the same scale. might do a review shortly.

Nice. biggrin.gif
Wanted to get nitro rider set few years ago but was rather pricey.
Same goes for the McF monsters playsets.
How articulate are the nitro rider figure?

As for POC wave 5 and 6,I pointed out earlier that majority of them are repaints and part swaps.
Unless you didn't own the 25th Cobra trooper ,Blowtorch,Croc Master and Viper,then perhaps you can grab the POC versions,but doesn't justified the price which costs twice a 25th figure with few added accesories(taken from previous 25th,ROC and POC figs).

I might troop build the POC Viper had it included a removable helmet and extra accesories,perhaps an updated vest too.
As for Cobra trooper,the only updates being the helmet and reuse of wave 3 SE's legs aren't enuf to get me excited.
I pondered about getting Hawk but wont be getting him,for now.
Saving moolah for 30 for 30 wave 3 onwards. icon_rolleyes.gif

Hey dark, sorry to burst your bubble, but from what I've been told, supplier won't be taking in any SDCC items this year. At least that's what Toywizard's owner told me.

I just want Skystrikers. I envy those in US who take 3 boxes home  cry.gif  cry.gif  cry.gif
*
That pretty much sucks.
I got SDCC '08 Cobra Commander blue and black variants ,SDCC '09 Destro 2 Pack and SDCC '10 Sgt Slaughter (both versions).Must get Zarana no matter what.

Toywizard owner mentioned anything bout bringing in 30th Anni?

Reaper, love the massive dio you got going.
Joes really got their asses handed to them this time.
I hope the Vipers are not gonna let ol' Snake walk out of this alive.
At least Scarlett can be CC's sex slave,if kept alive.
So are there gonna be a cameo by any Cobra A-list?

I want bro Sadistic Reaper to direct the next Joe movie...the real "Rise of Cobra"!!

Maybe Storm Shadow can jump in and give SE the 10 palm strikes attack?

Bro darkshadow, any new Joe figures at your end in Penang?

Sadly, no new figs here.At least for now.
