I bet that comes soon on the retro card. We'll see

You're gonna love it

extra hands would be great

Haha not everyone does

I bet Retro Flint gets announced soon

Amazons distribution is all over the place

That keeps happening with my Doc and Night Creepers. Amazons' distribution is all over the place

Awesome thanks for that. He'll show up for you before you know it

A lot of people feel that way. I like they have the option of a Retro line now

You should be able to get one

Thats cool @Tonys_Figs did the same thing. He has a video comparing the two: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qYezeqB9oNF6j7Msi=wXqU0uuCL4r0RYoo

We'll get them all at some point

He's pretty fun tbh

It was the best subline they had in POTF very creative

Awesome and I feel that because I reluctantly buy McFarlane haha. Pick & choose for sure. Same with Legends. I appreciate all that and thankful you still gave it a watch.

Haha I love this reply. When I get to the Ferret I’ll be the only one that does something different for sure. Stay tuned

@@BaldyLockz I am available and even more comical on camera!

Thanks so much. I think most people will love this figure and few will nitpick the ab crunch like me haha

They'll offer them in a pack at some point I bet

Hahaha he did right?

Maybe? Or at least another version of them

Awesome please share it. I would love to start including my other stuff if there’s interest.

Dude thanks so much for that! I’m still working on a formula so that’s appreciated

Bwahahaha!! This is now canon in my head hahaha

Damn right he’s got rizz. Flint was being a B

You’ll really enjoy her. I’m gonna try to fix the an crunch on mine but other than that she looks fantastic

I’m trying haha one day I’ll get it

Thanks so much!!

I agree. One every other wave would work

thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Interesting perspective, you dont like the comics or cartoons, just the file cards, and of course you know the cards are based on Larry hamas bios, that he used to inform the character depictions in the comics, It kinda seams like your not that into "Gi joe" but are more a military enthusiast, thats cool, And I enjoy that perspective , but you might be in for alot of disapointment with GIjoe, As it is military ,but also has a long history of being very different to a "commando comic". IF I were you I might focus on customizing GIjoes to your liking . That would be cool to see. or Find a line that focuses more on "real life military" like ultimate soldiers or vintage 60s joes. The Classified line references heavily the Arah era of gijoe , which is less a reflection of real life military, And more of an example of an ultimate friend group wrapped in a military context. The Brand found huge success in visualy depicting both military specialty/skills, and personality and background traights, This is why we get less od green and camo uniforms/prodtctive gear, and more "costume " decisions that show individuality. While Jinx wearing bright red wouldnt make sence in a real life military op, It does alot to tell us about her background / personality and speciality. WIthout needing to even read the file card. In the Arah, and now classified context the personality depiction will often out weigh the combat reality. This is how Baldys Grandmother was able to show him that He can be proud of the strong woman that are in his family, and that he could bring there traits and values into his own moral development. The depiction of woman in gijoes military isnt so much about an agenda to get woman into combat, Its more about examples of stong moral traights that can be emulated by people regardless of physical form. The Idea is for us to be able to see the personality inside the uniforms. So we can relate to the types of people our military is made up of. IM not trying to poo poo your perspective on gijoe, Or even say my perspective is correct, Lots of ways to enjoy the Brand, But just offering some perspective I found helpfull in tempering expectations.

Thank you!!

trying haha

Shes out of his league haha

yes, now they just need to stick with that and everyone wins

She really does. I think the ab crunch is an easy fix too

Hey hope all is well. I am such a procrastinator so no not yet. I came home and went right back to work and spent time with the family. One day I’ll get to it haha

I was the guy with all the tattoos

@@BaldyLockz how can I email you, I’ll send you pics of mine

Message me through IG. I want to see it.

I felt that way about Shockwave

Thanks for that Chip. I remember you saying you have a big comic collection. Did you back the Compendium Kickstarter?

Man, I really wanted to get a set, but we had to hire a lawyer to get get guardianship of our granddaughters. Also, I have to slow down my collecting a bit.

Haha thanks. I'm glad I don't just make myself laugh

@Sabir_DelNorte they are showing up at Walmart now though a friend that travels for work grabbed my Gnawgahyde & Jinx. They may have grabbed me a Doc this past weekend. Fingers crossed.

@@BaldyLockz it’s awesome to have those connections indeed! I will have to wait on mines to get here. I went online but they still all show preorder status, at WM but you probably need to find a good store which there aren’t any WM that are all that great near NYC 🤣 Cool, though enjoyed the review and story around this figure from your review also

Yes!! I'm not alone with wanting a modern look for Classified and a vintage look for Retro. Both lines are great just keep them separate

Its not the more commonly depicted blade. I did consult people that intimately know the culture before posting & they both called it that by name

@@BaldyLockzI’ve studied Japanese martial history for 30+ years. Been there a bunch of times. It’s not a real weapon. And certainly would not be called a naginata. I’m a member of a Koryu sogo bujutsu, and a gendai martial art for decades. Historically didn’t exist in Japan.

@@BaldyLockz I intimately know Canadian culture, but I couldn't tell you a damn thing about hockey players. Doesn't make me educated or reliable as a source. I would love to know how this qualifies in any manner as a naginata, but none of us should care this much either way, right?

Thank you @Shark_Eyes

What's the proper name of the weapon!?

Sadly ignorance spreads like a malaise and this weapon being called a naginata has taken root with those less interested in facts. Jinx's weapon defies normal identification, but it's certainly not a naginata.

I think it’s a total hybrid weapon and doesn’t reflect anything specific in history… Fangtian Ji is closer than a naginata, however, it’s also not double ended.

Awesome review neighbor! I totally agree with you on Classified being a more modernized version of a figure. I also REALLY enjoyed the quick history of Jinx you gave! Well done & TY!
