i have seen all kinds of trailers from here and other sites, and no matter how it looks , fan or not. it still looks like S6, I'm thinking the toys may be done but not the concept. if you take a look at there suits ,the one were there jumping all over the place sure looks like S6 armor too me, your thoughts.

You're right. Only Sigma Six was more accurate to the RAH designs. When this movie was going into production Sigma Six was the toyline that was on the shelves. Obviously Hasbro figured Sigma Six would still be going and thus it would make since to have a movie that would tie in with the toys/anime.

i don't know... there are certainly similarities between what we have seen with the movie and S6... but i'm not so sure that ROC is based on S6. i think the real origins of the S6-esque stuff in ROC is someone saying "hey! what sells nowadays? superheroes, right? okay then, make this a superhero movie!!" the fact that both ROC ans S6 have these qualities may be due to a common root source as opposed to one being based on the other.

I think RoC is a combination of the different lines with some new elements added in. The stuff from the different lines is to give the existing fans something to latch onto with the movie. The new stuff, and the overall movie, is designed to lure in new fans.
I've said it before, and will undoubtedly have to say it again, RoC is not for existing Joe fans. It's not created for us. It's created to make new Joe fans and to increase the brand's appeal. Existing Joe fans are a very small number. If we all went out on opening day, and it was just Joe fans, the movie would bomb and probably not even crack the Top 15 in attendance. So the movie is not for us.

Who decides who the true joe fans are? G.I. Joe has been around for over 50 years in many different incarnations. Every different version has had its fans and sold product for Hasbro. Personally, I wish more S6 vehicles and figures were made in 3.75" scale. Remember as much as you dislike S6, there's some guy cherishing his Action Soldier wondering why G.I. Joe is full of ninjas now.
