Like I said before, the reason I complained about the Sub figures is that we know HASBRO can do a lot better. These things are not even up to the HOH or POC standards that they released at retail and yet they cost about 3x more per figure. I have a Covergirl figure from the 3-pack they released around the early 2000's and I compared the pictures from the subscription service and YOJOE.com and I really do not see the need for the newer one. Yeah she has a curvier figure, but that's it.
HOH maybe repaints of already released figures, but they did an awesome job of repainting it. Chrome visors for the Vipers, enough said!!! POC had killer sculpts matching or surpassing the BBi figure sculpts.
Both lines got warm receptions from fans. But I agree that there are people on this site who are just not happy with ANYTHING Joe that HASBRO has released after the original ARH line ended.
Personally, I do not think that HASBRO will fully kill off the Gi Joe line. While they went back to 12" figures in the mid to late 90's, TRU has exclusive 3.75" figures. They might slow it down to store exclusives like they did in the 90's but I don't think they will fully rely on the subscription service. It might be sold online exclusively at HTS.
