The G.I. Joe Collectors’ Club shipped out the third wave of The Figure Subscription Service 3.0 consisting of Spearhead and Vypra.
It’s great that the G.I. Joe Collectors’ Club are continuing to help fans finish off the vintage ARAH collection in today’s style with adding vintage characters like Spearhead to the Figure Subscription Service. This is truly a good alternative since Hasbro has otherwise stopped making any new G.I. Joe toys right now, and hopefully they will have something to show fans at JoeCon 2015. Assuming that they actually keep their promise this year and show up for the 51st Anniversary of G.I. Joe. It will look even worse for them should they cancel. But lets go down that road if we get there.
It is possible that Hasbro will release additional G.I. Joe figures in the Fall, with 2-Packs, 3-Packs, and possibly vehicles. It is unclear how sales have performed for Hasbro in 2014, but they should be strong enough at retail standpoint since both kids and collectors are purchasing these.
Availability: February 2015
Sculpt & Paint:
Vypra is based on the 1988 figure from the vintage A Real American Hero line and uses the same sculpt as the San Diego ComicCon 2012 Jinx figure. She comes with a sheath holster for her double swords, a brief case with a Cobra logo that also converts into a computer and weapons storage.
Vypra is repainted in a blue and black karate uniform with a black mask over her head. She has a silver Cobra logo on his upper left chest.
Articulation:
Standard for modern G.I. Joe figures.
Accessories:
Figure Stand, Computer Case with Submachine Gun, Submachine Gun with Suppressor, Swords, Sheath Holster.
Overall:
Vypra is an excellent figures and a great update to the 1988 vintage toy. If you missed out on Jinx, this another chance to obtain this mold.
Highly Recommended.
