I guess he didn't get it. Oh well. Trying to point out some of the errors I've seen in here where people are talking about the "original" GIJoe and confusing him with ARAH. One more huge gap in the logic of all the haters out there. They can't lay claim to the "original".
I've already got my day planned around getting to the Theater asap on Thursday. Fandangoed my ticket. Bought a new GIJoe Shirt. Should I go with the Tiger Stripe or Desert Chocolate Chip BDU Pants? Thanks for the honest review, Destro. I've got my reservations about ROC (centered around the E-Suits) but I'm putting them asside so I can enjoy the Ride! |

They are where I'm at. Every time I go back, the pegs have less and less. Which wasn't the case with the 25th stuff.

The original had ghosts, brainwave scanner, MASS device, weather dominators, pyramids of darkness, fatal fluffies, bombed the fault line to create a new island, DNA spliced the "ultimate leader", traveled to another dimension, perfume that could mind control, jumping pogo balls, color changing people that got hurt by being in direct sunlight, Cobra-La, a Tibetan temple that created an energy dragon, cross dressing ninjas, dancing wolves, giant underwater tube worms, I could go on... Are nano-mites really that "out there"?

Apologies to Lucky, he's right though, ARAH isn't the orignal, so we really should stop calling it that.

They aren't selling here either. But I think that's because the movie hasn't hit theaters yet.

The cartoons and the 25th/Modern Era toys are there to enjoy. It's GI JOE, now and for the future with ROC. There's nothing wrong with that. As fans, in the last couple years we've really been treated to the best of the old stuff, while being given the treat of the new stuff as well. Could have been like other years, where we HAD NOTHING AT ALL. Just something to think about. |

Same in my area. With the 25th/ME Joe's, once the collectors got what they wanted, the rest of the stuff just sat, that's why I got into troop building because there were plenty of army builders. Kids avoided Joe's in the toy section. But with ROC, it's like kids have done a total 360. Now I have competion in the Joe section, with kids & parents talking about the toys and how much they can't wait til the movie comes out. Kids already making out B-Day, X-Mas, and allowence spending lists on ROC toys. Where as during the 25th/ME time, I was there alone and could take my time sorting through the figures. Target especially is selling well as they keep restocking and now TRU is getting there. Wal-Mart seems to be the downer, but I think that's because they waited so long to put the ROC stuff out, but that could change once the movie drops.
