G.I. Joe Classified Series

UPDATE!

Yes, the cop and greenie heads swap at the top joint! Heat and a little squeezing got the job done.

. . . and now White Cop looks even more like a soulless automaton. Yaaaay!!!?
 
Yeah, I had no doubt GS/Police head swaps could be done with heat, but it ain't happening right out of the package.
 
Just stumbled on Sci-Fi, Mainframe, and Grim Viper at Target, applied $10 off $50 and got them for $21 or so each! They didn’t have my most wanted Wet Suit tho.
Welp, looks like I'll be hanging around Targets the rest of the week.

And they better not screw me on the Steeler/Short-Fuze set. I've been holding on to that 25% off coupon specifically for them — and it expires Saturday. A small batch popped up on the website this afternoon but I missed them. Has anyone seen these in stores? Doesn't look like anthings hit Western New York.
 
I've been stalking the website for In Stock around Denver. Boulder had a few, but everyone else either says Out of Stock or Not Sold here. I suspect they just haven't hit yet.
 
Target comes through! I just checked the website a couple minutes after typing out that post and another small batch of Steeler/Short Fuses were up (what's the deal with that?) and I managed to get an order in with the coupon. I can't count this a win till I see it on my porch, though ...

And I'm seeing the same thing around me on the website, Chooch. It's that same mix of out of stock and not sold here. Did some stores get them and sell out? Target's so weird these days.
 
Just checked, no shipping, but a few of the farther away stores now say Limited Stock, but not available for pick-up. I suspect that means they're in the back still.
 
Tan Clutch was “my” Clutch, both because I owned him and because that was his look from the cartoon. So yes I need him, and I feel like a Retro card is the place for him . . . although maybe with the Vamp being so scarce/desired maybe they’d think doing the mk2 would be a good call. But I’d like to see an affordable release of the various drivers, with key differences to keep the originals exclusive to what they came with. But tan Clutch, first appearance Wild Weasel, Sunbow Wild Bill, etc would be cool to get at, at least, two-pack level, if not single releases.

Also I actually also want early Marvel Comics Clutch, which was arguably when/where he was at his most significance as a character since they kind of seemed to want to make him the “Harrison Ford” of the OG13.
 
Random question and this feels like as good a thread as any to ask it in:

Does anyone know of a figure that comes with a 6" scale double barrel shotgun? Need one for a silly little custom project. Doesn't matter if it's Classified, Legends, Monster Force, Valaverse, Fortnite. Just looking for a standard double barrel shotgun. Got plenty of single barrels laying around.
Valaverse just released one:

Got the retro BAT tonight - nothing crazy new sculpt-wise, but I really dig the paint on the hand attachments, the blue for the laser and the scorch marks on the blowtorch. For some reason I bought two of the original release of the BAT so this guy can act as a robo-commander to the two of them, I think. Code name RU1N.

Opened up my AWE Striker and finished putting together the Rattler. As much as I love Classified, I wish it was easier to get the figures into the vehicles. The 3 3/4" were so good at just sitting they spoiled me for the rest of time.
Fighting to get Crankcase in and out of the AWE Striker is driving me nuts. The vehicle is so cool and so detailed but popping him in and out of it is a PITA.
