Will provide action force reveals/news in the coming future.
FYI: Covert Ops Condor is an homage to 007 at the beginning of Casino Royal.
All in on this line being a Brit & glad to see Action Force return, a line I collected as a kid. Backed it since the crowd funder & haven't looked back. I've noticed a comment referencing quality control issues, I would just say that I've brought 60+ figures from Valaverse & Never had any issues. I guess I'm one of the lucky ones👍✌️
glad you discovered Valaverse. i got hooked after I bought the green delta troopers. they look life like without trying to pose them.
I really like action force figs, I really like the duster buck and they fit into the Joe line really well.
great video, keep up the great work!
It’s the best line ever. I grew up being a G.I. Joe fan. I had a 12” Joe when I was 4 and was all in ARAH in 82. I started collecting classifieds and still do but when I got the first series of AF I didn’t want to collect anything else. I still do of course but AF is priority. Read the comics and get the book. Buy some figures and trigger is wearing a hat that is turned around not a bandana.
I think I have 12 figures. The 1st Sarge was super stiff, no pun intended 😂😂 but he is still a great older Sarge for anyone's collection & second Sarge was a lot better as movement/articulation goes. Overall this is one of my go to Brands for action figures. As far as the vehicle, I wonder if they're going to add any light up features 🤔.
The only two lines I have really been collecting are Action Force and G.I. Joe Classified, but with this line I have been pretty conservative not to get too many of the troop builders as I pretty much troop build Cobra figures. However, the troopers are awesome to get just plain and then add some Gridiron Studios weapon loadouts to really make them pop, the nicest one of course is the Infrantry Commando. I am loving the look of all the enemy figures, the Wasp Raider, Swarm Sentry, and Swarm Troopers with the gear packs really stick out in my collection with their colors, I use these as Serpentor's army. Even though the bad guys stand out the realistic colors and such are what I love about this line, let G.I. Joe have the vibrant colors and Action Force can look more realistic. All I am doing is using Action Force as a new G.I. Joe sub-team and all the bad guys just incorporate into Cobra somehow, but they all go good together.
The bugs are cool! So unique and well made. I wish some of the earlier figures were still available but oh well. Same as Classified on that point.
This is line is definitely top 3 for me and slowly creeping to number 1. The only thing keeping Hasbro Classified line slightly higher is nostalgia.
My favorites from this line are the Steel Brigade male and female Wasp Raider, and Sarge.
I only own 2 Action Force figures which are : Steel Brigade the male and female version. They look okay
Great video, Shark!
Thank you for your positive review & sharing your opinions about the valaverse line!
You're always direct & to the point. That's why I like your presentation style.
Keep up the good work, & yes, I'll see you in the next episode!

Way to go, Shark! Love your Joe news but it is nice to see another line I have been thinking about
I bought a few figures and accessories from this line since 2022. They display well with the Classified figures, my favorite is Trigger who looks like he fit right in as Rock n Roll's teammate.
I have a few figures and weapons packs from this line its not bad at all. Yeah he had a few QC Issues in the beginning but he was just getting his company started so it was a matter of working the kinks out. My only problem with this line was that Sgt Slaughter wasnt as big enough as he should of been the Classified figure is more to my liking in scale. Good review on this line Shark I even learned about a few new ones set to come out from it that I didn't know about.👍
I really dig all the Swarm figures. Waiting to see when we get some more background on them.
the actual Kill Switch figure looks different than the photo.
the figures face is gorgeous but the photo isn't .
I'm glad you said that, I just did a video on my own channel stating how beautiful she is, definitely different from promo pictures.
@@thesavageland8815 Vala needs to update the promo pics. I bought her based on review videos .
YES I have to agree Kill-Switch is waaaaaay better in person! Great figure. as are most of the line thus far. makes the overall military collection pure greatness
So I love the time but I’m curious, like how both lines sgt slaughter and I’m curious how Bobby feels bout Hasbro making a “steel core” 😂. But I love the line. It complements the classified line a lot
A little Clavin-esk info on Duster: He, like Sgt Slaughter is based on a real person, Tim Kennedy. Tim, unlike Sgt. Slaughter, has seen some real shit
I use the Swarm Gold for bodyguards and the winged ones for Spec Ops. Love them!!
I have several Action Force figures and I really like them next to my Classified collection!
Ahh I see Valaverse is made it onto your radar 😏
Idk how good the sales are for this line but im pretty sure they would've been 10x better if they came out in 2015!!! Some figures are cool, Pandora looks like Zarana if she got fed up with the Dreadnoks chaotic none sense and decided to do her own thing. That Eclipse with the messy eye paint looks awesome and i also like Bone Collector but where i live these figures are extremely rare!! I'm all in with the Classified line but like i said if this line would've came out sooner (before Hasbro made an announcement) i would've tried harder to buy them.
I got the Botcon Wasp Raider exclusive first and it was the worst figure to break in that I had ever bought, still scares me. Later after giving it another shot more recently I found, after buying Condor, the first wave was much better than the Botcon fig. Then the farther you get down the line the improvements become even more noticeable. I just got my Bone Collector and Kerak (reissue) figs and they’re the shit. Better than wave 2 or wave 3. Some figs are exactly what you see in product pics. Some are a little off. Kerak and the Garrison Calvary are a lot darker and look better in hand. In the end I’m glad I gave them a chance. I just mailed in my points for the Chuckles, I mean Covert Ops Condor, and honestly it was a lot of fun.
Some of them figures look cool bro
The troops go well with GI Joe's or support characters
❤
I have been collecting Action Force for a fair bit and I like them largely as extra Joes seeing as how in Hasbro-Land, there is an army of Cobra, but nothing but stand-alone characters to combat against them. I feel like there should be soliders they can command. Action Force fills that gap nicely. Some of the other colorful characters can act as Dreadnoks, like Bone Collector and Pandora. I missed out on getting Action Force Chuckles. Their website failure was too much for me to overcome that by the time it was stable, he was no longer available. That really sucked, but I'll live. More money to Hasbro, I guess.
I think it is working again.
@@raypaz2947 Yes, but the mail away is gone :(
@@falcon048 aww sorry man.
I still plan to get Pandora
I have blowback, Steele brigade, 2swarm troopers and a swarm sentry. They're solid well made products. Are you still doing a livestream for the dragonfly?
Yessir! Just waiting on next tier unlocks but unless you meant me ordering the dragon fly then yes, I will be doing that once I know what the 4th tier is
I have most of this line and looking forward to the new reveals from Joefest! They go great with the Classified line 👏🏼
The figures are ok, but I have no attachment to them whatsoever. The whole time, I was looking at the figures thinking of ways to customize & improve my classified figures.
The word plain gets thrown around a lot. I think that is vallas biggest weak point ICONOGRAPHY. Characters must have color patterns ands breaks so that we never forget them and they read from a distance. Hasbro and Mattel are absolute geniuses at this. You can take an entire wave of vintage joes and snap a pic out of focus and you know exactly who they are. With AF you couldn't identify hardly anyone as they are all so generic and forgettable.
I'm not a fan of this line because how arrogant the designer/owner of the company is man... Also a lot of quality issues reported from Joe fans about these figures and still Bobby talk trash about other toy companies... 💡
While Bobby is a little cavalier, seeing their booth at Joefest and it never slowed down...people can separate the personal from the product. And the product is fantastic
It’s interesting that you talk about, critique and make out right slandering statements about GIJOE and Hasbro, but you give this disclaimer “that I’m not here to talk about the drama associated with this company.” You sure as hell don’t take the same approach when it comes to Hasbro. Why is that?
because i follow and collect hasbro figures and products since i was a kid and as someone who gives them my money, as a consumer i can share my thoughts whether is critqueing. I don't know the inner details of vala or his drama with hasbro - so why would i bash a company i don't collect, address qc issues when its my first video covering it? cmon man.
@@TheArtistShArK Thats fair homie.
