Ordered Duke, Roadblock, and Scarlett from Pulse. All on the same order. Just got an email saying Scarlett shipped. Nothing on Duke and Roadblock. Pulse is weird like that. I ordered the recent Ghostbusters Plasma series on one order and they shipped each figure separately. Seems like such a waste on shipping for them.

Got all of Series 1 last week at Walmart last week. Not perfect, and I would have liked them to look more like the OGs, however, they are cool. I am looking forward to future sets.

for some reason Destro popped up available to pre-order again on Target's website, so I put an order in.
Im done trying to hunt in stores for these....now of course that means when I go out this week I will find multiple cases of each at all different walmarts

The Retro figures aren’t bad, but it’s disappointing that they’re just rereleases. I plan on starting a collection of Marauders GI Joe figures. I already did a version of Duke, but I held off on going further until I knew what was happening with this line.
In terms of the 6 inch line, I got Duke today. Great figure in my opinion and I actually like the gun a lot more than I expected. Roadblock should be in on Monday. The figure looks great but that gun looks terrible. I think it would have looked better if the just didn’t include the bits at the end of the barrel.

honestly the retro line is what it is, i want to get it because its GI Joe, but I still have all of my original figures and vehicles, plus a bunch of the stuff that was released in the mid 00's....like, my 3 3/4" collection is great to me.
but if i get a chance to grab the retro stuff i will because its cool, otherwise im not gonna lose sleep over missing out on the pre-orders, etc.

Same^ I might get them for the vehicles and build that collection but it’s pretty much obligatory at this point honestly I’m just pumped to get joes again!

Are there any GI Joe characters that have been released (or are likely to be released) that would look a lot like a SWAT team member?

Between this and Pimp Daddy Destro, Cobra will have to be rebranded Peacock...

But there are some generic SWAT figures and gear sets in the 12 inch line, and there's always Shockwave/Shockblast or Wide Scope in 3.75".

Finally have Duke and Roadblock. Funny how Duke’s weapons are better than I expected them to be and Roadblock’s gun is even worse than I was expecting. He even looks weird holding it.

Looks like I’m waking up early tomorrow! Hopefully it isn’t a $h!t show like the Walmart preorders were for the Retros. Ordering all of them with the Trooper x 3.
