Funny work Jon! Looks great. The new articulation on joe figures is blessing an curse, as the new plastic is fragile, and it makes it hard for them to hold poses, and hold weapons.

Looks like a great set. Still waiting for my HTS order to clear the 'you didn't order two Starstrikers so we can fulfill it' stage.

You n me both! There are so many characters that would go perfectly with JOE characters because of their vehicle forms.

Yeah, I was online IMMEDIATELY at HTS and had it IN MY CART but double-purchased by accident and then when I attempted to check out, it said I couldn't buy more than one and refreshing the cart made the image change to "OUT OF STOCK." So hated that.

I really like what they are doing.. But I wish they would transform.. If they did that I would buy up any that they made... I guess my inner child can dream.

I sincerely hope that we're getting close to that.

They would get my money.. Wonder who would they team up with snake eyes?

I would like to see a Brawn/JOE crossover as well as Hound, and G2 Megatron just off the top of my head.

by **Oskie21** » Fri Aug 05, 2011 12:13 am

Prime- Duke
Sideswiped - Snake Eyes
Jazz - Road Block
Skywarp and shockwave with Destro
Stunticons - Dredknots
Hound - Beach head? Maybe?
Rodimus - Scarlett
Thundercracker- Baroness
And on and on and on.... It would be epic! Lol I just geeked out.

I would have loved to have this to display. i don't even care that it doesn't transform.

Great and funny video :lol:

."What there is no Transformation" :lol:

.I always wanted them to do crossover toys with the G.I.Joe's :GIJOE:

,threre been so many in the comics .Maybe though if they do ,make the Joe's Human Alliance scale ,then it may work ."Till All Are Corba" :COBRA:

I just picked mine up and "oh hell yeah" ;)^

! For me this is total display only in box. I too wish I got a better deal but a buddy of mine that owns a shop got me mine so I had to pay the $150 but it's so freakin' worth it! He had just one left and it's up for grabs if the person don't show to claim it. I hope that with the popularity of this thing Hasbro will consider another and maybe it will transform...we hope...'nuff said! :VEHI:

Yeah, I would have rather paid $50 but I'm honestly glad I GOT it at $150 because now it's going for even MORE!
