The Costumes are like VvV but the power suit is not the same.

I couldn't stand I Am Legend because of the variance from the book; I'm worried I'll have the same problem with this film.

I dunno, I think the powered suits could be cool, I looked it up on the internet and I found these, maybe its somthing similar http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=109_1195663753 ... theres also a part that wreaks of SNAKE armor.

Very Nice find, however that is more bulky then what we were shown but you can get the concept of what they were going for by watching that video.

I can dig the concept of power armor. My problem will probably be if I like it I'll be complaining over the fact that COBRA doesn't have any.
Although it's cool to hear that two of my favorite vehicles (Night Raven and Buzz Boar) will be featured. Hopefully these'll be translated into next year's toy line.

I think there is a big difference between the start of Transformers being in Qatar (small plot point) versus the main base for the Joe team being in a foreign muslim nation.

That said, I don't think it will be much of an issue unless for some reason they feel the need to focus on the location in the film.

That's exactly the segment I was thinking of when I mentioned earlier that the military is working on exoskeletons. Thanks for digging that up and sharing.

I don't know what it's going to take for some of you guys. This isn't going to be a "G.I. Joe ARAH 1984 The Movie", this is going to be G.I. Joe reloaded/reinvigorating the franchise. This isn't going to be the "25th Anniversary" of G.I. Joe movies. So accept some change or walk away.

I personally don't mind about the power suits, it's a G.I. Joe movie and I am happy about it however it goes.
