I really just find the old o-ring debate so laughable now... GI Joe isn't a little rubber ring, It's about the GI Joe mythos and characters.

You can't blame them for being upset, especially after what happened when hasbro tried to get rid of the o-rings the first time. Remember the butt plug figures from the early days of the Joe Vs. Cobra line. See example below.

The Joe Vs Cobra and valor vs. venom and spy troops erra was a good time too. The designers actually reinvented characters and used Devil's due designs too. And all the army builder packs were awesome the crimson guard pack, the shadow guard packs, and the bat packs were all great. And Built to Rule was a great concept that was poorly executed, come on GI Joe plus Legos how could you go wrong.

That being said I love the 25th line and I like alot of the ROC line. But the new vehicles don't hold a candle to the vintage stuff. Only good vehicles are the reproductions of the old ones.
