Her phenomenal mechanical repair and driving skills reduce most people to stuttering fools—even more so than her stunning good looks.

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again – that AI card art is absolutely awful. I get that there’s a need to cut corners and save a dime here & there…but JFC, G.I.Joe is your IN HOUSE BRAND…can’t you invest just a bit into an in-house artist?

That aside, the figures themselves look pretty good! I’m stoked that we got a blonde Cover Girl in the ReAction+ line, as this offering is awesome. Love the capped head! I hope we get a new Tele-Viper in the o-ring line with swappable lenses, but doubtful, all things considered.

Have you added, or will you add these to your Classified lineup?

Many thanks to Bee’s Battlegrounds for the reviews!
