I just started collecting the 25th line, but it seems that Hasbro is re-doing this like I believe the TF Armada series, where EVERYTHING was just a repaint/repack of past figures. Maybe Hasbro thinks that collectors have forgotten what they put out in the past (VvV, Spy troops, what have you.) Not to say I won't be buying any of the movie stuff, but it is kind of disappointing. Toys will be marketed to the new folks who aren't really into GI Joe, but are snagging toys for their kids or for the movie. Those people have no idea that the SE cycle is based on a mold from a prior line.
Seems like they are just trying to cash in on the movie hype, much like Star Trek has, with their figures. Note: Has anyone seen any UHURA figures lately, because those are all gone at retail in Hawaii. Seriously. I snagged one 3.75 inch one and I would like to have a 6 inch one since Zoe Saldana is FTW.
Anyway, hopefully Hasbro places these at good price points, otherwise there will be peg-warming.
