Giving him more firepower comes courtesy of a new handheld beam blaster and his glass gun.

Isn't this about 4 years too late?

Classics Cliffjumper hasn't been sold retail for years and after market prices are pretty expensive and not that common.

Unless they know something we don't ;)

Possibly a United release or one in the RTS line?

Could happen, seeing as they did BBee again.

I'd buy it. Looks good, and would save me trying to make my CJ head look more like CJ :p

Classics CJ's paint scheme isn't exactly to-die-for so with Classics BB mold getting two rehashes this year I can see a lot of people who would repaint him into CJ.

Nice!

Was just contemplating whether to get generations CJ for the head, but now I won't have to worry about that. Hopefully these aren't final- atleast paint the hasbro grey weapons. The head is meh, but something irks me about the face that is not right (probably the large eyes). I will probably pick this up despite my perceived shortcomings of it due to lack of a better alternative.

Better not be over $30.

I agree! - this will hopefully be a lot cheaper than FansProject's $300USD offering of ultimate rarity and plastic over pricing! :D
(Given, that was FP's first product ;) - I love you FP :p)

Not according to TFsource. :o
Well, I was going to give you a link to the page but for some unknown reason TFsource's FP page wont load correctly - it says it's displaying 14 out of 17 items but it is only actually displaying 2!?! :confused:
That is where I last saw the upgrade and it was at the $300 price I mentioned. :(

I think I paid $20 for it directly from the source. Only the after market drove the price up to those ridiculous proportions.

Tfsource and other online stores stocking items that old would sell them at after market value so they are not exactly 'from source' since they are selling older stuff they recently acquired. Some of them even have scalper prices.
