i just assumed these figures would be in the movie breifly.just because you only know certain joes that are in the movie doesnt mean there wont be a bunch of familiar faces on the cobra side. i figured monkey wrench and scrap iron would be in the movie along with all those stupid cobra troops that look like aliens

some weird, toy collecting strain of OCD.

Am I the only one that gets bothered by Hasbro re-packing classic/25th style figures with the ROC movie toys?
I'm sure loose collectors don't mind the packaging as long they get the figure they want but I'm a MOC collector. Why would I want Monkeywrench on a ROC card? I'm pretty sure he's not in the movie and if he is, he's not going to be wearing his classic outfit. In my opinion, movie packaging should be for movie figures. Anyone with me on this one? |

agreed , i would like nice mint cards to go with the night creepers in blue that i will be buying instead i will have rise of cobra all over it.i would be ok with the same cards and art as the 25th line but were they changed the headed for resolute they could do gijoe rise of cobra instead. i said it before the way it is now reminds me of the VvsV line.

The more movie stuff I see, the more I want it all.
Even though they're repaints, I love the colors on Airborne and Deep-Six. They kick ass. Look, I know no one wants to face it, but RoC is where it's at as far as Hasbro is concerned. We're lucky we got what we got, end of story. We're lucky there are still some vintage looking figures coming out in the movie packaging. Hasbro could say "sorry guys, you had your anniversary, but it's the movie's turn now" and just go ahead, but no, they're trying to appeal to everyone. So stop complaining that it's not on the "right" card, because honestly, it is on the right card. It's on the card Hasbro puts it on. That makes it the right card.

To me though, the new Tunnel Rat looks almost like a Night Force Tunnel Rat. I think its great.

Complaining that a certain figure isn't on the "right" card is just silly, since it's Hasbro that determines what the "right" card is in the first place, not us.
