G.I. Joe Classified Series

Grim Viper being so large kinda kills troop building him. however, it does make him a standout character instead a nameless fodder guy.
 
So I received an email from Nerdzoic Toys last night promoting the arrival of a limited number of Vamps. They were sold out by the time I noticed it but I wonder if this is part of a restock. The email doesn't really say, it basically says — Huge surprise: We have Vamps in stock. With a limit of 1 per person.

It makes me think of Sci-Fi Toys (I think) which started selling preorders of the restock Marvel Legend Power Princess and Cable long before we really knew they were coming.

If it's not a restock, Nerdzoic is pretty awesome for keeping the price as low as they did for the sale. They could have asked for a lot more than $130 and had the same results.
 
Clearly I need to be paying attention to this Nerdzoic store. I still have some apprehension about smaller retailers after Dorkside, anybody have a bad experience with Nerdzoic?

No but nobody really had any bad experiences with Dorkside until they did what they did. Nerdzoic requires preorders be paid up front and I'm just not doing that when you can preorder just about anywhere else and pay when the item comes in. The economy sucks and times are very bad for the action figure business with the tariffs I'd imagine so I wouldn't tie up money long term on preorders from an independent store.

Ordering in stock from Nerdzoic I wouldn't have any issues with though.

I ready that whole post thinking it was about vampires.

I've only preordered the Blokees large scale classic Soundwave with him, and didn't have any issues, and I've several problem free in stock orders with him that generally shipped within 3 days of ordering.
 
Who is your guys' favorite Joe figure of the year? I'm really struggling to choose between:

Budo
Crystal Ball
Monkeywrench

Top 10 this year is going to be difficult!

Also, I think 2025 has likely been the best year for Classified figures so far. Any agree/disagree?
 
Just in volume I think 2025 is the highest? Although it's been very back loaded so maybe it just feels like it. This feels like 1985 again when things peaked production wise.
