Thanks to Facebook group ‘Living the Adventure Dios‘, we now have our first look at G.I. Joe Classified Series Titan Class Figures.

These Titan figures (“lovingly” called as Shampoo Bottle Figures) comes with 5-points of articulation and 4 paint applications. Primary market for these figures include low-income as well as pre-school.

Speaking of which, the Titan figures were spotted at retail for $9.99 each.

12 inches in height, the figures are based on the Classified Series aesthetic. This is a common practice at Hasbro since Classified Series act as an Evergreen Concept for the G.I. Joe Franchise. Duke, Storm Shadow, and Snake Eyes are featured as the first wave. Future releases will include Titan Class Movie Snake Eyes and Movie Storm Shadow.

On an interesting note, this is our first look at Storm Shadow in his base Classified Aesthetic.

You can check out the mirrored images, after the jump.

p.s: No ‘Kung-Fu Grip’ on these.

Derryl DePriest former Vice President – Global Brand Management at Hasbro, spoke to Mental Floss regarding the inception of special-edition Theodore Roosevelt G.I. Joe figure.

Though the company tried new initiatives in ’95 and ’96—like the 5-inch “G.I. Joe Extreme” line, which DePriest called “a disaster”—they were usually discontinued within a year. Joe was still a moneymaker, but it was clear that its popularity was sagging, especially now that it was under the same roof as the Star Wars juggernaut. Turns out, to evolve, the brand just needed to go back to its roots.

“The team at Hasbro was aware of the nostalgic interest in [12-inch G.I. Joes] beginning in the late ‘80s,” DePriest says. “They first tested the waters with a 12-inch product at the request of Target in 1991, with a version of Duke with sound effects marketed under the ‘Hall of Fame’ collection.”

“Teddy Roosevelt was a natural fit,” says Kurt Groen, the former designer behind the 12-inch line at Hasbro. “He’s bigger than life. So, that was an easy pick in the whole process.”

Back in 2015, we shared word of the latest pre-order in Gentle Giant‘s jumbo A Real American Hero line, the G.I.Joe Bazooka Trooper, Zap. Fast forward to 2017, namely yesterday, when HissTank.com forum member Kane429 gave us the heads up that his pre-order for Zap was cancelled. Oddly enough, not only was the order cancelled (through GG), but any mention of G.I.Joe is also gone from their site.

However, with that said, online retailers such as BigBadToyStore still show the item in stock, but that’s not to say that any order placed won’t be cancelled somewhere in the future. We’ll try to dig a bit deeper and find out of this cancellation is across the board.

What’s your take on this and the Jumbo ARAH line as a whole? Are you bummed to hear about the cancellation, or could you care less? Share your thoughts with us after the break!
