Gentle Giant 12 Inch G.I.Joe Zap Figure Cancelled?

Posted on February 14, 2017 at 6:18 pm by C.I.A.D. under G.I. Joe 12 Inch Collectibles

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!

Rafael “Zap” Melendez is one of the original 13 members of the G.I. JOE team. He’s a specialist in armor-piercing and anti-tank weapons, but he also assists the team as a demolitions expert. From his training in Engineering School, Ordnance School, and Advanced Infantry, he’s acquired field skills that he applies with his characteristic coolness under fire and a professional attitude in any situation. He’s participated in many battles against COBRA and uses knowledge gleaned from those missions to pinpoint and attack the evil organization’s weak points. And just to be absolutely sure of the outcome, he backs up every plan with plenty of weapons and explosives.

“The stuff I work on could blow up at any time, so I have to make sure that anytime something explodes, it causes COBRA COMMANDER to have a very bad day.”

Earlier this month, our friend Dreamwalkeroso and the team at Gentle Giant stopped by to share images of their upcoming G.I.Joe A Real American Hero Jumbo Figure Release, Rock N Roll!

Now, we know that the first wave of figures will consist of –

  • Rock N Roll (First scheduled release)

Our question to you, Hisstank faithful, is this – Out of the remaining 4 figures, who do you want to see Gentle Giant release next? Sure, we can speculate on what we’ll see in Wave 2, or what the Gentle Giant Exclusive figure will be, but we really want to know who you’d like to see make his 12″ appearance after Rock N Roll.
