definite pick up for me as I love the Artic Theme. Although I may turn it into a Cobra Vehicle.

I'll tell you why they came strong on the response to that. It's old stinky crap that keep surfacing around here every couple weeks when yet another noob feels the need to hate on the movie (that they truly have no idea about) and claim that said movie is driving them away from collecting and "killing the line." Notice how Destro referred to it as "original." That was sarcasm in case you didn't catch it. For those of us that have been around here for more than a month or so, it's old and it's tired and it's tedious to read it one more time from yet another hater typing out their rear end who doesn't know what he's talking about...
This is a modernized, revamped Polar Battle Bear, no more no less. Haters hate on it because it's associated with the movie. I am glad at least a few guys around here have an open enough mind to give it a fair shake despite their pessimism toward the movie. Kudos to you guys.

Nicely said Thunderdan. We have no financial ties to the movie but we all AS collectors have an interest in this property. If it does well, we will get more of the stuff we want, if not then not so much. People need to give the movie a chance, heck we have yet to see a trailer for this thing and the constant complaining gets old as he stated. There is a way to express ones feelings without going on a dead horse rant. As far as the toys go, we have only seen 2 pieces, 1 directly from the movie (the other a tie in). Waite till you A- Either see it in the ackage or B- Have it in your hand before you bash it. Give this stuff a chance guys

As I said in the locked thread:

I myself have no hope what so ever for this movie, and I am completely unimpressed with this line, but some of you take it too far.
Me I hope this line does well, even though I personally have no use for it. If it does well then we will get what we want as well as there will be more money for R&D. My only real gripe is they are putting the current line on hold for this.

I'm not hating on it because of the movie (which I admittedly hate on frequently, and exuberantly).
Me personally, I'm hating on it because it looks terrible, in my own humble opinion. It looks like something we would have gotten in the early 90's, or the Spytroops line. That being said, it looks much better than the original images did. I'm still not really impressed, but there has been marginal improvement.

I have seen stuff like this already on the shelf at Walmart. Its those cheap action figures like CORPS or something right?
I for one will be passing on the movie stuff if this is what they are going to be turning out. Its TF movie garbage all over again. It looks SO cheap, and you know that thing is going to cost like $20. They can have my money when they put quality stuff out like they have been but like they did with Transformers, they started a great line EVERYONE loved and then dropped it for movie "knock-off" crap. Oh well it was fun while it lasted, I wonder what this Bakugan thing is all about......

But there still might be some hope left. Us collectors can only hope that the:
the movie will flop the video game flop the new toy line will flop If any of those three things are a sucess and hasbro starts raking in the profits then we are finished for good. So until then I will see you all in the year 2032 if Hasbro desides to do a GI Joe 50th Anniversary line. |
