After debuting the images in the last two issues of the G.I. Joe Collectors’ Club newsletter, the GIJCC has now posted images of the convention exclusive Crimson Strike Team Baroness, Tomax, Xamot, and COBRA Vipers. While I’m not a fan of the conception, I do have to admit, these figures do look really, really nice. Check the following links for nice, close up images from all angles.
Hopefully we start to at least hear some details on the attendee exclusives going forward, but time will tell.
This less than impresses me. We were supposed to wait until we saw pictures, and then we were to be wowed over?
*YAWN* MEH PHAIL PASS whatever. Not interested and do not want. Good for those guys that want this set, but I’m disappointed. If I could be so lucky for them to have the set with Falcon, Lady Jaye, Black Dragon and such, I’d SO jump on that one and get that as my set.
It’s 2002 all over again. I like em, and the Vipers look to be a little better, but why go with a theme that’s already been done, other than to update with the new tooling? I dunno. On one hand, I want ’em because I love the new figs and I don’t have the old set. On the other hand, I’m bummed because I was hoping to see something a little more unique.
Still, I’m tempted for sure.
So that’s what $280 worth of current repainted molds looks like.
This was what I have spent the past several weeks waiting for? I love the vipers and kinda like the twins, but why, WHY THAT VERSION OF THE BARONESS? Did they not just released one that far surpasses the original 25th one with the new head. I am so dissapointed that they could not give us the one that was realeased with the latest 5-pack, she actually looks like the original con exclusive.
I wanted this set but I am not sure if I can deal with that anorexic Anastasia. I have been reading on other sites and speculation suggests that they were not allowed access to the mold.I would have loved to see that five pack version though.

Wait, you don’t want an exact release of the same thing, so they change it, and now you want a release of the same thing? I’m confused…
Again, Joe fans showing that they’re unhappy regardless of what is released. 🙂
I will admit that the figures look nice. HOWEVER, I’m not interested in paying hundreds of dollars for something that’s been done before. Besides, I already have a 25th style Baroness and the Twins and I don’t feel like having extras lying around.
