Loyal Subjects (Series 2) - G.I. Joe

Please don't tell me they cancelled this line!Ever since Brother Midnight sent me a Loyal Subjects Trap Jaw figure,I've been kind of fixated on the line.The paint work on Trap Jaw was flawless and the quality of the overall figure superb.They're kind of like over sized Mega Bloks figures.I quickly hopped online to check out their Joe figures and picked up a Cobra Trooper and Beach Head.


These Loyal Subjects G.I. Joe figures stay true to the toy they pay homage to.You get a little added articulation for the Joes than you do for the MOTU figs. 


Beach Head also comes with his trademark accessories!


The backpack fits snug on his back and doesn't take away from his balance.


The only bad thing Is that you can't fit his binoculars around his neck. You might be able to pop his head off to do It but I'm not going there.He looks fine just hanging on to it.The weapons fit tight,real tight In his hands and may even take  a little bit of paint off  when attaching his gun.It's not horrible and you can't even tell .  


This Is just an awesome representation of Beach Head ,imo, and figure overall.


At first I was crushing on Beach Head a little but now I think I like the Cobra Trooper more. Removable helmet?What?!?!That wasn't something we saw In the original ,vintage line.So cool,though!



Damn!This figure pops!




Look at Trap Jaw!Thanks to him I am now diving head first into the rabbit hole that Is Loyal Subjects!

    I don't like that kind of shit either,Matt but these figures got alot more than that going for them.Also,I'm partial to the B-Boy styled eyes/faces ,but I wouldn't expect anyone who isn't into Hip Hop or Graffiti to get that.

    A little secret ,you can just pop beachheads head off and put the binoculars on him then put the head back on. On a side note funny to find you are a fan of Graffiti ! In my youth I was quite the tagger.I couldn't tell you how many brain cells I killed painting under overpasses lol

    I too love these Loyal Subject figures. I haven't taken the plunge into the MOTU ones yet because I know how weak I am!

    BTW, nice blog. I added a link to your blog to my own blog's blogroll list! (randomtoyreviews.blogspot.com)

The other day ,my better half and I had the chance to traverse our local mall early In the day.I hate going to malls at peak hours or on the weekends.The crowds are just too damn cool for me.Long story short,our mall now has a toy store! I couldn't believe my eyes.From a far It looked like It was going to be some artsy fartsy place with educational toys ,wooden blocks and model kits,but no!This place had pretty much everything collectors go for nowadays.The name of the store Is "Go!,Toys and Games" and I can honestly say that I've never heard of It before.Everything was a dollar or two extra ,but that's not too bad considering how ridiculously expensive modern toys are In hobby and toy shops these days.I really hope this place sticks around. There Is a nice mix of everything.Marvel Legends,Star Wars  to blind bags to Funko figs.On top of that there are tons of board games   and books. WTF? Yes! 3 3/4 Marvel Legends!!!!!Not alot thou

My last "Merry Christmas To Me" post was going to be of Marvel Legends Spider-Man animated cartoon series figure that I thought I was getting a great deal on. It turns out the figure was a bootleg. $30 down the drain and a fake Spider Man figure in the trash. I didn't even bother trying to get a refund from the seller. I'll chalk it up to a loss and keep it moving. So today I figured I'd  treat myself to something dope in the toy aisles at my local Walmart and found this!  I'm not sure if this is a reissue or what but It was the last one on the pegs and so I grabbed it. Now I can't get that damned theme song out of my head.
