As many of you know the Amazon Exclusive Blue Ninjas 2PK #51 is now shipping out from Amazon. We got ours in today and wanted to share out some quick photos and some thoughts on the new release. While I’m not a fan of the Blue Ninjas in G.I. Joe IDW comic lore the 2PK of Classified Figures are still a welcome addition to my Ninja army build. Adding a female Cobra Ninja and a nice blue color splash to the collection shelf was worth grabbing a few of these.
Pros:
-Extra Heads especially the red Oni mask that can be used with Red Ninjas for even more army building diversity.
-Lots of weapons and gear.
-Army builder 2-packs and 3-packs are a very welcome addition to the line and I hope it happens more often.
Cons:
-Windowless plastic free boxes. Not a fan at all of this direction.
-No arrow for the female Blue Ninja
Check out additional images of the Amazon Blue Ninja 2-pk after the jump.
HAPPY NEW YEAR! I just made this thread because I'm such a narcissist that I wanted to look at this throughout the year knowing that I'm the one who made it. Below is the link to last year's thread.
G.I. JOE Classified 2021 Official Thread https://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-j...al-thread.html
Anyway, since variants of popular characters are inevitable it would be cool if a future wave was an "Unmasked Wave," in which we got a disfigured Snake Eyes, an unmasked COBRA Commander, Destro, Beachhead, Shockwave, and unmasked army builders. Also, can we finally get a dedicated G.I. JOE Classified Series forum this year?
Unmasked disfigured Snake Eyes would be very sick. I would love Snakeeyes in the LRRP Vietnam war era fatigues pre-disfigurement, but that would be too good to be true.
And him, Stalker and Storm Shadow in a 3-pack, all in Nam garb and gear, would be incredibly awesome.
I’d be all for a Classified Classified figure. I thought that was a great inclusion in the later parts of the ‘O’ring era. I’ll take a Tommy Arashikage in fatigues too.
I think it is time for Hasbro to give us a proper unmasked, disfigured Snake Eyes head.
Another thing I really want to see a lot of in 2022 is muzzle flash accessories.
Hasbro are probably wary of offending people with facial disfigurements, so may never see a disfigured Snake Eyes, but Vietnam-era Snake Eyes (along with Stalker and Storm Shadow... hell, throw Wade Collins in there, as well) would be damn cool.
I'm old school, I don't think Snake Eyes' face should ever be seen.
Just nabbed another Bat on Amazon for $22 just now.
