FSS 6 and FSS 7 News from the G.I. Joe Collector’s Club

G.I. Joe Collector's Club FSS 6 roster

The G.I. Joe Collector’s Club released an update regarding G.I. Joe FSS 6 and FSS 7 yesterday afternoon:

Hello Members,

Here are our latest updates:

FSS 6.0 has landed on the west coast but is not here yet. We expect it in the next 10 days or so.

In the meantime, if you have moved since this summer, please update your shipping address here.

In addition, you can use the same link to confirm that your correct credit card (installment only customers) is on file. We won’t set the billing date until they are here but it is still anticipated to be the beginning of December.

FSS 7.0 figure previews and order period will start next week and end December 4. You will all be very excited about the coming figures. These should ship starting in the Spring, just after FSS 6.0 concludes.

Convention information will be released in early January with registration starting in mid-January.

Thanks for your support!

Brian

Well, well, well… it seems that we could see FSS 6 hitting subscriber mailboxes before Thanksgiving!  Now that’s a great way to start off the 2017 Holiday Season for Joe fans!

Even more compelling, we’ll start to see FSS 7 previews next week.  At Joe Con 2017, we found out the identities of only two members of the roster: Shattered Glass Tomax and Crystal Ball.  This means we’re going to have the reveal of a whopping TEN MORE FIGURES!  As for the rest of the FSS 7 roster– it’s anyone’s guess.  Will there be more Ninja Force?  Action Force?  Could Night Force Sneak Peek actually happen?  What about Hardball whose weapon was reissued as part of the Force of Battle convention souvenirs?

(It also means that JBL staff have to get off their collective keester and POST the rest of the FSS 5 reviews!  SLACKERS!!!)

For those of you wanting a refresher, here’s the full roster for FSS 6:

However, Mike has also posted a quick video look at the souvenir figures including Dee-Jay, Corrosao, and the Cobra Laser Viper:

Has anyone noticed that Corrosao seems to be carrying HARDBALL’S launcher!!!  Could this be a hint at FSS 7?!!! Continue reading →

I’ll say it now– using the name “Ghostrider” and then promptly losing access to it was the best thing that ever happened to the pilot of the X-19.  Suddenly, instead of being yet another Joe pilot, he was the guy whose name no one could remember.  In an instant, the forgettable pilot became unforgettable– at least to this Joe fan.

However, let’s talk about this figure’s build… Continue reading →
