News Post: G. I. Joe Collectors’ Club Magazine August 2011 Preview

Over / Under on how long it takes for this thread to become a HTS slam-fest?

That's the last damn thing I wanna see right now after all we've been through today.

It took me 3 hours to check out and all I ended up with was the Indiana Jones set and the Mighty Muggs set for fellow member RedEyes.

I had everything in my cart from the get go. I even tried to buy the Starscream Skystriker separately when it was the first thing posted before the Zaranas, but I couldn't get the sale to go through. Seconds later the Zaranas and the others popped up so I added them all to my cart, but I couldn't get through the checkout process.

I've now been up for 32 hours straight!

I'm very distraught over this whole process, but I guess I just have to deal with it.

Forget that......I JOINED THE GI JOE CC so I could get the exclusives. And then they don't offer them this year? Totally bogus, and its spitting into people's faces for even publishing that as the cover story when they club didn't even offer them or even go as far as explaining why they weren't going to offer it to members. Hells Bells.....

I agree... not the best time to front page this crap.

Yeah this cover reveal is poorly timed at best!

The Club doesn't promise any convention exclusives besides their own. I'm as mad as you are, but don't get unreasonably emotional because you thought they offered something they dont.

Tom

I'm not unreasonably emotional, its just implied that they help out their members to get exclusives. Beyond getting lame offers for exclusives (Dial-Tone? I did it to complete the ME figs) and a really crappy magazine every month that I could make myself using Adobe InDesign, calling old Hasbro Employees, and venturing through YoJoe.com, what's the true benefit of being a member?
