She still looks a bit like a Witch doesn't she?

Having seen the Baroness with her glasses on on the front of Toyfare, I like the figure a lot more now. I thought the 'Desert Duke' was pretty cool too - It's certainly an indication that the "They're all wearing black" argument being bandied about doesn't appear to be true.

according to comments at ComicCon, (IIRC), each Joe character gets 3 outfits.

i'm wondering if they're going to go the money-grubbing Bayformers route and bung in movie-styled figures of characters not in the movie. (EG, a red version of Camaro Concept Bumblebee was made and sold as 'Cliffjumper'.) if they do, I want a Lady Jaye and a Flint.

I'm probably only going to buy Scarlett and Snake Eyes. Might buy Storm Shadow...

are these 3 3/4in or are they larger?

thanks dave !! please, if you get any more images of any joe toys please post!

there is a RESOLUTE comic pack with Cobra Commander and Scarlett listed as Artic and Im pretty sure its the QUarrel inspired repaint of scarlett in that COMIC pack but the pictures of the comic pack that are out there are super small and its a little hard to make out

be a nice NEWS SCOOP for the site!

Im not a fan of the 25th anniversary figures, nor of any of the more modern joes.
I think this is a horrible looking figure, scrawney torso and matchstick arms !
This puts me off the new style of figure even more.

There have been some nasty looking baroness reissues in the past, and I dont think they are getting any better,

Sorry Guys ! just my opinion :) I will stick with my V1

To be honest, it does kind of look like a drag queen :lol:

I think some of the vehicles are coming with repaints of 25th figures and new characters. The Snowmobile (don't know the official name) comes with SNOW JOB (no surprises there!) and the ARMADILLO comes with THUNDER. At least I think the ARMADILLO is a 'movie tie-in',, I haven't seen any packaging for it.
Hasbro also said that characters not seen in the 25th line so far may appear with a more 'movie style' look.

I thought most BARONESS figures, from the very beginning, have looked that way!
