Back in ’87, Crystal Ball wasn’t all that popular, but I thought he was fun! I loved his lenticular shield and would alwasy make pretend that he was hypnotizing unsuspecting Joes.

This new update is exactly what Classified should be – Faithful updates that keep true to the original while at the same time breathing new life into the design. Hopefully, everyone who wants one will be able to get one!

Happy hunting and good luck to all!
