  • In this video I review the GI Joe Classified Arctic BAT by Hasbro. This is a fan channel exclusive which means it can only be purchased online and in specialty stores. We look at the articulation, accessories, paint and how well the parts work with other BATs.

      You get them so fast by paying extra money on shipping from overseas toy stores to get these figures early from overseas, why people cannot wait boggles my mind, I am happy to wait for mine, but I guess that is the life of a CZcamsr.

    I can't really say it's an oversight, because it obviously took planning, but it's really WEIRD that they changed the BAT mold in between variations so you don't have all those swapping options. What is an oversight is not making the chainsaw attachment fit the backpack. On the positive side the design changes are really cool and the colors work really well together.

    What you have to remember is the more timez you use the same mold, the worse & more likely problems will arise, which is why Crimson BAT turned out so crap
    So you could argue that this wasn't QC but a fix as they didn't use the same body mold & gave us a new one so we didn't get a loose figure - but the trade off were tge shoulders

    Does the New Arctic Bat head with one eye fit on the male Cobra Blue Ninja Body ? Didn't know if you've read the recent Canon G.I. Joe A Real American hero comics over the past few years but there is a Faction of Blue Cyborg Ninjas that have Robot heads with one eye and they fight against Cobra and G.I. Joe and Cobra Commander kills their Leader because the Cyborgs killed his son. Later Cobra Commander has what's left of the Cyborgs work for Cobra and he uses their tech to upgrade the Cobra Bats that's why you're Artic Bat has the New Head. There are Multiple varients of the Cyborgs heads some one Eye some with multiple eyes throughout the comics.

    Does the package advertise that accessories are interchangeable between all B.A.T.s? If not, that’s not part of the design. That’s not quality control. I feel ya. Makes sense. Could be an expected/desired behavior. But it’s not designed for it, so not not a marketed feature.
