I don't think a day goes by when someone doesn't post their dreams of seeing a Flagg produced again. IMO, the Flagg isn't worthy of such praise. Besides the fact that it's big and can hold planes and a bunch of figures, what is really more fun then say the TerrorDrome or GI Joe HeadQuarters? This is my personal opinion, mind you. Are there are anymore out there who agree that the Flagg is nice but over-rated? Please don't report me to the moderator, lol...

if they released a slightly retooled flagg, with lights and windows and just detail updates, that would be keen. Kind of like the new millenium falcon, yeah?

Because none of our parents ( most of us!) got us one. It is the ultimate symbol of not getting what you want in life. As grown men, we feel the need to fill this void from our childhood, to put wrong-right, to prove that no matter what we will obtain the things that we desire, no matter how much time goes by!!LOL

I think it's just the nostalgia factor, or that not many people actually owned one and would love one now.
Me, I'd like the big playsets for the scene/display ability. They'd make great ways to showcase the Joes/Cobras.

I'd still have a Flagg if it wasn't 7 feet long, it's too big to do anything except "BUILD A DISPLAY" with. But I can't say I'd want a Terrordrome, that thing makes no sense. Like was there an episode of the Cartoon I never saw where CC was all "DESSSTROOOOOO, LET'SSSS PUT A ROCKETPLANE LAUNCHER IN THE MIDDLE OF OUR CONTROL SSSSUUUNROOM AND A BUNCH OF GASSSSSS STATIONS ON THE BOTTOM. THROW IN A PRISSSON SSSSSELL (ed note: I know it's spelled "cell") IN THE MIDDLE OF IT ALL"

A USS Flagg to some of us is like that BMF that Hasbro finally made for Star Wars. Alot of fans bought it, and some coulda cared less. I mean... what else did Star Wars have besides a Death Star that people would paid big bucks for?? I mean if you had a choice... would you want a Flagg or a Headquarters?? If they decided to put out another Terrordrome or Joe Base... I would buy it. But all the hoop-la about the Flagg... IT'S THE FLAGG!!! What else is there to say????

I would have to say if you do not already have a girlfriend or wife, the flagg is something you hide when you have female company over and only bring out after a few years of dating!!
