Nice to have you 1242. This thread has lost some of its steam in recent months. Nothing new and the obvious lack of filecards. But I bet everyone still checks ins. But you make a good point as far as the importance of the filecards and the connections we made as kids.
Birthplace which they at least added back with POC, is one we all immediately identify with. Sadly nothing with the retaliation figures. Kids these days are smart enough to be interested in what it takes to become a special operations operator. Smarter than I was 30 years ago. So when we read things like Ranger school, or Airborne qualified we hold those Joe's to a higher standard because lets face if the US military is cool in the minds of young boys (and old boys too) . I don't. Know why they have too push all this gimicky photoshop crape glitzing the packaging. That goes on the front. O the back should be filecard and pictures of all the other figures you still haven't gotten yet. I use to spend hours looking at those. Star Wars had that too.
I'm hoping after retaliation they finish off the ARAH Joe's and maybe add a new character or two with at least a feable attempt at filecards. It would be awesome if they just asked us as the fans to write them.
