New Wal-Mart Exclusive 12 Inch Gi.joes

Some brand new reproduction joes have been anounced as an exclusive to wal-mart. The toys will feature one figure from each service; Navy, marines, airforce, and the good ol' U.S. Army. The 12 inch figures will come in their original "shoebox" packaging, and will retail for around 10 bucks a piece. Even more exciting than that, each branch will feature one reproduction outfit just like the originals, packaged in repro style window boxes. I've heard of one outfit....and it's deffinitly the most exciting. The outfit for the navy branch is the infamous frogman suit....which if you don't know is one of the most expensive suits on the secondary market today. especially because they're so hard to keep in good condition. no word on the prices for the outfits, but with the rumor of some repro talking joes that feature two previously unreleased phrases....looks like the joes will be attempting a full-scale invasion of your toy isle VERY soon.






my opinion? CAN NOT WAIT. they're really cheep, WAY cheeper than originals, they're basically the same as the originals.....how could you sak for more? They score a 5 out of a possible 5 on the cap-o-meter.
