Man the negatives are mounting. No new 25th figs. Movie trailers look pretty terrible. Video Game looks stupid and cheap. Please to all the happily blind devotees don't start arguing the merits of "Well at least it's Joe!" to me. I've heard all that already and I can't abide that mindset. If dog poop had a Cobra symbol stamped on it I still wouldn't buy it. Even if it was a variant.
Resolute was awesome but they're dropping the ball toywise on that one for sure. I need something to pick me back up here! The 7 packs are all I have to look forward to Joewise really. What happened? Things were on fire this time last year. I guess I should be glad I'm saving money to put toward more 1:18th goodness. |

I here you. I am very disappointed with the way things are heading. Very little of the new stuff, other than the 7 packs, looks worth spending any money on to me.

there are a few cool things coming out, i think once the movie crap hits retail, some of that stuff will grow on you, might find a few cool things to add to the collection. but i feel yah, its not like it was last year. hopefully by 2010 or the end of 09 after all the movie hype dies down, hopefully we will get are modern era card art back with some new goodness.

I fear we will start seeing Neon versions of Duke and Cobra Commander with Space armor and Monster sidekicks before we see more classic versions of wanted characters.
They needed to stay with the 50/50 approach. 1 line for kids and 1 line dedicated to adult collectors. Seems that may be skidding to a halt.

I know you're not a fan of the movie, but the movie received much better feedback than Transformers in test screenings, for what it's worth.
The movie toys are awesome (just wait till you get the Ice Vipers and Paris Pursuit Snake Eyes in hand, I was amazed by how much I liked them).

word up cs.. an yes they were on FIRE this time last year, i was pulling my hair out my head goin' nuts over this shit. i'm sure it will circulate back around again man. they just want to bring the newer generations in , an materialize the shit out of the joe product an name, but i think they will be back to making our stuff again. who actually knows what the outcome will be man.. right now it gives army builders time to catch up on bills lol.. what we need to do is, just keep on at the hisstank so we dont lose interest, an when things do drop they dont pass us by..

If the movie bombs horribly, will the 25 line die a fiery death? |

I could care less for all those OH NEW ROC craptastic figures with Super Big Guns oh and the brand new repaints that others here overlook are just repaints.
I'm so uninterested in this Joe line right now is not even funny.
