I have still not made one ROC purchase. A lot of the figures look good and some of the vehicles too, but I just don't want them. I stand there in the toy isle and look at them and when I think about going to the register with one I just cant bring myself to do it. This line just has that banging your sister feel to it, sure shes pretty and it will feel good, but it just aint right. I see so many of you guys posting about your
purchases and how much you have spent and even seen that some of you are troop building them. I'm starting to feel like guilty of not just not supporting the ROC line, but feeling like I'm not being suportive of GI Joe anymore. Are any other Tankers out there not buying ROC and having similar feelings of guilt. *I know Hasbro does not need my insignificant little purchases to keep the company running. When I say support I mean emotional not financial.

if they're not 25th or Resolute friendly I haven't bought them.
Well I have a Helix and a Flash but I have plans for them. I've stocked up on both color RSE's and TRU Firefly and the wave crusher Eels and that's it.

I have yet to buy a single thing. I just refuse to support a sub-standard product. The upcoming exclusives have caught my eye but NOTHING from the main line has made me want to buy it.

I have every domestic released gijoe ever made since 1982 (missing a couple of variants here and there), but that streak will end with this movie. I will never, ever, own a wayans action figure.
