A lot of people :raises hand: have NAS servers for stuff like PLEX.

All of the availability and permanent ownership of physical media with the convenience of streaming.

Minor update:
the original GI Joe ARAH series is on the slate for Pluto TV's Kartoon Channel, which has typically shown old DiC shows like the Mario animated series.

I was surprised with Hiya Toys Flint, as I got no shipping notice from Cooltoys; I just noticed a random package shipped from Ebay on my USPS Informed Delivery dashboard.

He's pretty cool. Certainly not the stand in for the V1 Flint I was hoping for in my 25th display, but he'll fit in very nicely on a different shelf. He has some interesting articulation points; this is my first of Hiya's Joes. Definitely an "older, crustier, beefier" Flint - with a Glasgow smile scar?

Apparently the reason there were no production samples for some of those was because John Warden was going to be the one to take them…

I’m eager for more info on Nemesis Enforcer. I’m hoping a general release of some sort, because he is always on my short list of GI Joe figures. I’ll need to see more of Flint before deciding, I’ve already got two (original Classified and Tiger Force)
The Cobra Defense Perimeter set will be going up for preorder on Tuesday. Still loving the 97 inspired Alley Viper redeco, and the image of 10 stacked bunkers will probably get the troop builders hot and bothered.

Nemesis Enforcer rocks. I really want to be able to order him soon.

I'd kill for a V2 yellow black alley viper with the dragon-y helmet.


-ZacWilliam, I can't believe they havnt done Sci-Fi yet. He would have been day one to me. Also and forever I'll be asking for a Hydroviper.

Nemesis Enforcer/Immortal looks amazing. The flair they added to the design is top notch, the new weapons look solid. The “armored” head sculpt and the alternate back pieces give some great flexibility in display options. And what’s this? His back pieces are designed to be little creatures when not being used?
Oh Lenny, we don’t deserve this love…

Orders go up tomorrow at Noon CST/1 EST for Pulse Premium members, an hour later for the rest. It will be a Pulse exclusive release, though if Dinoking is any indication, Hasbro should have plenty. But that probably means we’ll have to wait a few months.

A convention over the weekend has Keone Young as a guest (along with Dan Gilvezan, Rob Paulsen, and Greg Burger):

Well, I guess now I've seen -- or at least read -- it all.

For real, though: Do you have any idea how weird it is to read that? XD

I can't imagine why, I mean me and all my friends always thought he was one of the best joes and the coolest thing in the movie.

I mean my impression has always been that most 80s kids love that giant vampire monster.

-ZacWilliam, it's why he gets used and made way more than the rest of the Cobra La stuff (which to be fair is also awesome.)

Well, Frick me. I worked overnight and overslept through the launch windows. Oddly, the site is saying Nemesis Enforcer is both in stock and out of stock at the same time.
Hopefully, the quick sellout will encourage a rerun fairly soon.

Picked up a loose, complete Stretcher at a local store, who had gotten in a shitload of Joe figures.

I'm just wondering why he included a separate mic when he has a molded one on his helmet. Especially given the line's dicey history with easily lost microphones and antenna.
