It looks like it. Some of those releases that were exclusives have been popping up at other places, too(Pulse, bbts).
Yeah, the Retro overstock that seemingly never made it to shelves is showing up on Fan Channel sites.

You're paying for a small production run, all-new tooling, extra accessories -- which for this pack are the best yet -- and unnecessary extra packaging.
I feel like we've reached the point with Hasbro where any figure with more than 5 POA will cost $15 and up.

So is the vehicle line dead? The HISS and FANG seemed to move well around here. I don't think they realize how much they could sell a vintage-style boxed Night Raven for. Easy money.

vintage-style boxed Stinger on Hasbro Pulse! definitely got one right away. looks like maybe the vintage vehicles are here to stay?
Saw that, it definitely brought back memories! I had the Tiger Force repaint. lol
The only drawback is that the figure literally belongs back in the early 80's.

Got in my o-ring cobra troopers from Hasbro Pulse. Shipping box was damaged pretty badly. Brown Hasbro outer box for the set was dinged pretty good. The box itself also had decent ding on the corner, but the cards inside seems to have come out OK. If not for all that packaging I'm sure the cards would have been destroyed based on how badly damaged the shipping box was.

Speaking of retro G I Joes, I recently acquired a vintage GI Joe figure case in a lot, that's in good shape except missing original trays and handle. Anyone interested in it? I do have 3 mini trays( for 4 figs each from a simular star world, tara toys 1970/80s case that I'll toss in, but they are not in best of shape). Case itself is in good to great condition considering from early 80s and may be ideal for storing small accessories that are bigger than a fig like a ski jet, motorcycle etc. $30 shipped w/ USA ( includes shipping and PayPal fees) * note: There is a bit of a ding in backside spine where the pic has most glare (5th pic)

My Cobra troopers arrived today. I'd be inclined to buy some of this run to keep carded if the bubbles weren't so gosh damn gawdy large.
They come with an impressive array of hardware. While it's just going to wind up in a baggie for all time, I do appreciate the extras, for the cost.
But again for the cost, this pissed me off...
Stress in the plastic at the rivet, so the elbow is a bit loose. Its a minor thing, but I mean, for $20.50 each... it shouldn't arrive out of the package like that.

Its frustrating that the bubbles are so big. They arent as bad as the ESB Retro wave. But they arent perfect. I dont get Hasbros love of oversized bubbles.

anyone interested? price is negotiable
Received my Duke/CC pack today.
Unfortunately my Duke has a paint error, googly eyes. Not the worst thing ever, but frustrating, I'll email pulse and see if they can do anything but I'm doubtful they will.
Cobra Commander is top flight though, what a great, sharp, awesome figure.
I appreciate the fact we got a few less weapons and few more 'other' accessories with this pack.

That Duke issue is widespread and not just you. I've seen some theories that it's deliberate to more match the vintage one but I don't buy that. I think the left eye/eyebrow was misaligned on all of them.
Otherwise it looks like an awesome set. Mine arrives Wednesday.

Those eyes arent great. Lets hope they arent all like that.

Not doing anything for me. I might consider other characters though.

Wish hasbro did not give up the Walmart Retro modern Joe line, not crazy over the later wave with the Marvel bodies but I enjoyed the photoreal repaints of the 30th-50th figures. There was lots of unlreashed modern Joes that could've been made from their vault even.

Follow up to the Duke eyes issue. I contacted Hasbro who told me they couldn't send me a replacement because they didn't have any even though it was in stock on Pulse at the time. They did (graciously) tell me I could keep it and they'd send me something of equivalent value.
They sent the Classified Snake Eyes/Timber set.
Now, I don't want to seem ungrateful, I mean they sent me a $40 item to cover one half of a $40 item being defective and let me keep the defective item. But while it is the same brand, its not even the same line. Its like having a problem with a Star Wars retro figure 2 pack and getting a black series figure. Ah well. They tried I guess.

Synthoid Duke? Got the Megatron/Hiss from Amazon a few weeks ago. I love it. I transformed him a few times. The Cobra troops are from the Retro line from last year. They work pretty well.
