Don't harsh my buzz, man. I was excited about the GIJCC Mission Brazil set! I'm a bit amazed at myself for spending so much for figures as that's realy against my nature, but I considered the rare nature of these particular figures and find that that justified it quite a bit. They will be the only items even remotely close to "rare" or exclusive in my rather large Joe collection.
I'm really excited to see what 30 for 30 brings us. I was a little excited by the Crazy Legs we're getting, and floored by the Techno Viper. The Steel Brigade was "okay" looking--a nice update to the character's original look, though. If Hasbro gives us the classics with the POC treatment, I'm totally hooked again Giving me a PROPER Lt. Falcon would be just lively But this thread was about filecards, wasn't it? :P

I'm still looking forward to new stuff. I just won't be buying as much of it.
My lack of desire for figures comes from: 1- lack of storage space 2- not being able to display like I want 3- other things I want to spend the money on I'm still as big a Joefan. Still be getting the comics. Just won't be getting as many figures and will sell off a large chunk of my collection.

Nostalgia is fine, but I've always wanted my Joes to be as tactical/realistic as possible. Those were always my favorite figures as a kid. Crazy Legs and Sneak Peek weren't even cool to me until Night Force came out.
So I'd like to see all these old character get the "Low-Light Treatment".

No harm intended. But given the cost and the increasing difficulty in getting exclusives, I just had to re-evaluate my tastes. The Brazil set is cool, but I think I need to pass on most of the figures to keep my interests fresh.
As for the thread, a little effort on Hasbro's part with the file cards could certainly reignite our discussions. |

The Convention filecards can't get here fast enough. Here's a question, speaking of the Con... What Con Exclusive figures/set do you think will show up this year?

I really don't know what to expect but with the debut of a new Skystriker and Zarana, I think the 30 for 30 should produce some stellar figures! |

Speaking of Crazy Legs, let's count the "Airborne Specialists"...
Disregarding Sky Patrol for the time being, which Joes were the "Parachute Specialists?" Airborne Ripcord Crazy Legs Free Fall Paratrooper Flint Am I missing anyone? Cause that would be a pretty awesome HALO unit right there.
