it's so much prettier opened and assembled. whoever gets it, will deal with that temptation for sure. personally, if i had the benji's i would buy it and open it, again.

that is why this nice playset needed an updated for the new gijoe toy line!
other joe fans wanted this playset. so why not hasbro can make a new space vehicle of this for the new generation of kids and well as collectors (who never own this playset before) |

that was one of my more favorite playsets going up. It was just about the only one I didn't have to worry about taking up to my room. So it got a lot of play it was a base and often taken over by cobra so they could go into space.

What Hasbro needs to do, which they won't, is take orders paid in full upfront for massive playsets like this. I think there's enough fans out there who would buy things like The Flagg, Defiant and The Terror Drome that as far as their bottom line is concerned, it would be a win win situation for them. They would loose no money with product sitting on shelves and the fans who want those items get them without having to go broke doing it.

I had got out of GIJoe by the time this toy was released and I never quite understood why it was so popular since it wasn't as military themed as past vehicles/playsets...but the more and more I look at it I'm starting to understand why it's a highly coveted item among Joe collectors now.
I wouldn't be surprised at all if the auction brings in more than the original Buy It Now price. You just don't see stuff like this and in this condition that often. As for something new on this scale...I probably would still pass. Every time I acquired a large vehicle/playset I've ended up selling/trading it as I just don't have the room anymore. Of course it's easy for me to say that now...but if I were staring at a pre-order online I may not be able to resist!
