These look great

I don't know why it's not in the hi-res version of the slide posted today, but there was also a view of Hector without a hat and most definitely with hair in the slide shown at the panel. Lenny Panzica even said the plan was to do the same thing with him that they did with Lady Jaye and the swappable hair and hat pieces (I cannot remember if he said this during the panel or during one of the interviews that are starting to show up on Youtube).
You're right. That picture does clearly show him without a hat. Odd that hair piece doesn't seem to be in the accessories picture. I'm going to be disappointed now if the hair piece isn't in there.

No worries, sir!Possibly, because he might be working as a freelancer. He is a founding member of BFS. Also most of the guys at BFS worked on the modern Joes prior to 2013.

They all look pretty cool, although something seems off with the capes on Serpentor and the Doctor. That Snake Eyes was definitely a surprise. I don't need another Snake Eyes, but I don't think I can pass this up.

I like a lot of what they're doing with this line. Dr. Mindbender, Serpentor and Sgt. Slaughter are all super fun! Unfortunately for me, I'm only a packaged collector for this line and I'm out on anything windowless. I've still got quite a few figures on pre-order that are supposed to have the windowed packaging (Storm Shadow, Cobra Officer, Spirit, Dusty, Crimson Guard, Zarana, Stalker, Tomax, Zamot and the Target exclusive figures of Bazooka, Outback, Recondo, Python Patrol Officer, B.A.T. and Viper), but after that I'm afraid that I'm out. I decided not to order anything that is going to be released in windowless packaging. I'm also not into the retro line from Walmart, I prefer the original boxy packaging. Seeing that Shipwreck is being made is a little nostalgic for me because he was my first G.I. Joe figure when I was a kid, but in the end I'll be happy with what I have and just move on. I'll still watch from afar at all of the action figure goodness that this line holds in the future, but as a spectator rather than as a collector.
Hasbro has released images from their 2022 SDCC G.I. Joe Classified panel this past weekend showing the newly announce PulseCon exclusive Serpentorfigure along with the final two Walmart Exclusive Retro Cardback Crimson Guard and Snake Eyes figures, and four super early development sneak peeks at Rock N Roll, Torpedo, Copperhead, and Shipwreck. Check out the images below.
