As most of you hopefully remember, I got a chance to review two out of the three “Tactical Ninja” boxed set figures a few months ago. Well, now that this set has finally hit retail, I was able to finally round off that three pack with Snake Eyes!
Snake Eyes is…well, sort of a conundrum. He’s got a fantastic mix of different really great parts. But when you bring all of those great parts together, the result isn’t especially captivating or cohesive. You’ll have to check out my G.I. Joe: Retaliation Review page for the full details, or just click the link below.
As an added bonus, I also added some details to my Agent Mouse review now that the final version is out, there were some added pictures and information that I wanted to get into the review. You can click that link below as well.

We’re still in vehicle mode at the review desk here at GeneralsJoes, but we’ve gone up in scale! Graduating from the Bravo level Tread Ripper tank from yesterday, today we jump into the Delta class with the Ninja Combat Cruiser! Or if you choose to burn all of the Arashikage symbols instead of applying them, I suppose it could just be the “Combat Cruiser”.

So over the past 2 weeks I’ve been maintaining my “one review a day” grind as we work down the “Road to Retaliation”! Well, after yesterday, I kind of had an issue. I’d posted reviews of every single pack G.I. Joe: Retaliation figure released to date!
Have no fear… now we have vehicles! I’ll be covering the Tread Ripper today and the Ninja Combat Cruiser tomorrow, and then dipping back into the figures as we examine the Wave 2 3-Packs! Plenty of material still left on the table. Check out the latest review on my G.I. Joe: Retaliation Review Page, or the direct link below.

Having missed the first edition of Ladies Night, I’ll be honest…I wasn’t sure what to expect with Ladie’s Night Part 2. Even with Chuck chickening out having a family issue to deal with the show was an absolute blast. The ladies rocked it out.
No real show notes this time around, just hit up Podbean for the latest episode, or check out the embedded players below!
By popular demand, it’s back! It’s Ladies Night II!! The WOJM crew assemble a panel of female collectors and wives of collectors to talk to us about their collecting, relationships AND answer your questions that you’ve sent in. Rejoining us again in 2013 is Gary’s wife Debbie and Mo from Moderately Geeky. New to the panel is the co-host of the Open Your Toys Cast, Mrs. McFavorite and the owner of our sponsor, Kokomo Toys, Amber. This was one of our most popular episodes of 2012 and included the infamous Chuck meltdown that you voted on as your most favorite Chuck Moment of 2012. If you missed it or never heard it, you need to hear it here first! There isn’t much Joe discussed here and because of the nature of the program and how we know each other, there are a lot of inside and running jokes. Bear with us, because the info contained herein is some good stuff. It’s the one night we sort of relax and let the show be about the ladies and lots of fun. There is no Chuck this year, but we have some flavor in the second half with our own Herb and spices added. So suck in that gut gentlemen, comb your hair and tuck in your shirt because the ladies are joining us tonight!

Continuing the Road to Retaliation! I think most folks have figured out my review formula now, where I typically save the best for last. That will likely tell you what I think about the Lady Jaye figure. While some folks have complained about paint applications on her face, I haven’t seen any real evidence of problems on mine. In fact, my Lady Jaye is all good. Really good.

The Cobra Urban specialist “Alley-Viper” has quickly become one of the default Cobra Troopers that Hasbro goes to when a new assortment is being considered. The funny thing is, the first version of the modern era Alley-Viper did not appear until 2009, but in the past four years since then, we’ve gotten three more. From 25th Anniversary to G.I. Joe: Resolute, Pursuit of Cobra, and even a Pursuit of Cobra vehicle driver there is now a veritable army of potential Alley-Vipers to choose from.
So how does the G.I. Joe: Retaliation version stack up? Check it out on the G.I. Joe: Retaliation Review Page, or the direct link below.
