My Opinion of the Final 6 Figures from FSS 3.0

FSS 3.0 went over my expectations. We got so many cool figures, and if Keel Haul and Night Force Falcon from FSS 2.0 were in this FSS instead of Vypra and Night Creeper Leader, this would have been the best FSS.

Hit & Run: A great figure, I didn't care for the olive that the concept case had, but this looks brighter. I don't care for my figures to have face paint.

Repeater: An awesome, awesome figure. No complaints here.

Slice: Awesome, but I don't care for ninjas! I love what BFS did for the head sculpt.

Big Ben: Awesome! I need more figures for Action Force, GI Joe can't go all over the world, they're not nato you know ; )

Crimson Guard Immortal: Amazing, so much better than last years troop builder, Dessert Scorpion. Now if I could only get 2 of these guys without paying more than $70.00...

Bombstrike: She reminds me of someone from my favorite anime of all time... Electra from Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water (especially episodes 36 - 39). She has to be tied with Psyche Out as my favorite figure from FSS 3.0. I may try to use her head one day for an Electra custom.

Overall, if FSS 3.0 is tied with FSS 2.0 for the award for best FSS.

We all know what everyone's going to do when the artworks revealed ;)

Final Figure of FSS 3.0 To Be Revealed TONIGHT!

I've loved this FSS (FSS 2.0 wins by a few figures), and tonight is the reveal of the final figure, and that is Bombstrike! This figure is what will make many decide to sign up or not, so the Club has to have done the best on this one! I might be able to post it on the site, but I'm going hiking tonight and may have limited internet access. I expect the reveal to be at around 5 - 9:45, but it could be 2 - 3. Visit the Tank for the reveal in case I'm not on.

A brand new 3 3/4 3D printed line!

If you've been following my work over on the tank for my status on the New Flagg (Defiant-Electrium) you probably know I've always wanted to produce 3D printed objects for my ship. Well, me and my friends are diving in to create 3 3/4 figures inspired by GI Joe's ultimate articulation (what I refer to as Generation 3.5). I'd love to have these out in 2020 - 2030, but there will be a limited run of 150 per character. They'll be FSS priced, but I can assure you all these will be painted in the best way we can. If you can recommend a name for the line, I'd love to hear it in the comments below!
Now, without a further-a-do, the figures:
Secret of Blue Water collection (Wave 1, 2, & 3):
- Captain Nemo ( includes episode 5 - 22 hair design-head sculpt, Episode 36 - 39 hair design-head sculpt)
- Gargoyle (Episodes 6 - 37 design, has 2 hand sculpts, one regular GI Joe like, other like hand in the right pocket)
- Gargoyle V2 (Episodes 37 - 39 design)
- Sanson (Includes 3 different head sculpts: Hat & Sunglasses, No hat, No sunglasses and no hat)
- Hanson (Same as Sanson's head sculpts)
- Grandvis Grandva

Evangelion (Wave 3):
- Gendo Ikari (Two pairs of hand sculpts, one regular GI Joe like, other to allow you to make the Gendo Pose)

GI Joe (Wave 4, 5, 6, 7, 8):
- Renegades Zartan
- Renegades Destro
- Renegades Baroness
- Renegades Snow Job
- Renegades Shipwreck
- Renegades Flint
- Renegades Tomax and Xamot
- New Flagg crew man (4 differentiating head sculpts)

Star Trek (Wave 8):
Kirk
Spock

Goth and Emo styled figures (an idea my friend had, wave 9, 10)
- Darth Vader (Hood, long trench coat with skull on the back)
- Cobra Commander (Like above but with dark blue, and a poorly drawn on smile)
-Destro (Like the above but dark grey and brief case)
-Zartan (Like the above but with dark brown, black, and dark blue in respectable spots, goth makeup extreme)

Note: I may not produce these, but it's a good chance I will.

Sideshow GI Joe - CANCELED???

A few day's ago it was revealed over on the tank that Sideshow had announced no new GI Joe reveals for their brand at this years SDCC. I'm not too familiar with that sub-brand, besides the fact they produced a Lt. Falcon. Obviously this is not good for the brand, as this one of the only other groups you could go to to get GI Joe's. People are divided over what caused it's hiatus. Most believe the cost of the figures was the killing of the line, while others think because they're not direct 12 inch reproductions of the original figures. Oh please, that would get so annoying! Having the exact same figures in 12 inch would bore me to tears. What Sideshow did was awesome, having new designs for awesome characters. My opinion of this: If we don't do what Sideshow did, the line is going to die.

GI Joe 2013 Night Force Psyche Out

I grew up watching the news and all sorts of adult stuff, so I knew quite a bit at 12 years old how a Psychological guy works. Psyche Out was that guy. Besides going into peoples brainwaves, he also served as their psychological councilor to make sure over-insane guys got the help they needed. When the defiant came out, I was lucky enough to use my savings for that. I used him as the sonar officer for the ship. For the 2013 figure, I loved the design and how they used 30'th anniversary Airtight's uv light thing with a sonar, that was brilliant.
Articulation is G3 meaning he has a wrist swivel, double jointed knees, 90 degree bending at the arms, and a ball joint for the head. He's accessories include three sonar discs that can attach anywhere on his arms and legs. He includes the sonar box thing mentioned above, and a rifle included from 30'th anniversary Lifeline.
Overall: I fantastic figure and one I am so "psyched out" about from FSS 3.0 this year. Overall: Pick him up!
