JoeDios.com Forums - View Single Post - DTC wave 4 for Available for preorder from GI Joe Club!

Direct To Consumer.

After VvV, there was the creation of the 8" figures. Those were marketed as Sigma 6.

Due to wanting the 3.75" back, Hasbro created the DTC. 1st wave had... uh... errrrrr... Let's just say Major Bludd, Scrap Iron, Footloose, Major Barrage, Range Vipers, Crimson Guards, and a bunch of others made their appearances in small scale. DTC wave4 was canceled by Hasbro but due to the persistence of Joe fans, the GI Joe Club convinced Hasbro to produce them so they could sell them to the hardcores. (I mean let's face it, if you buy anything from the club, you gotta be pretty hardcore. lol)

I was reading Frank's post as you get BOTH Airtight and the Cobra Officer for $29. Am I reading this wrong. Cuz why would the club list these figures in 2-pack (and 3-pack) forms. Anyway...

I've decided to skip these. I was pretty wishy washy on wanting them but now, forget it. The o-ring figures that I have now are the ones I want (and have kept). You guys know me. I prefer whatever is the new thing on the block, even if they aren't overly cool. Cool in my book, not in others. And that's ok. I have weird tastes. I AM the only one who HATES Link Talbot, y'know?
