It's easy to see by the comments that the buzz for 25th stuff is so much stronger than the toy line (which I find cheezy and just waiting for the discount bins at Target and Wal Mart).
They look awesome but I do have 2 complaints... 1. Which one's Dr. Mindbender? 2. Why doesn't Hasbro single card all of the figures found in the large battlepacks? Characters like Quick Kick and some of the ones here deserve a chance for collectors to pick them up withouth having to kick down 30 bucks all of the time. |

I think you're a tad bit emotional here, because Hasbro certainly knows when we do not like something. We have many methods to voice of opinion, from internet forums to conventions they attend.
And frankly, if I were Hasbro (and still retained my GI Joe fan knowledge) and I heard someone complaining because of a change regarding someone as vital to the GI Joe myhtos as Dial Tone... I'd tell them to shut up. XD Tom PS - I just wanted to clarify I didn't mean that 'shut up' towards you, Jeff. Just in general when it comes to silly complaints I just wanted to say something in regards to this, I know this is tricky because any type of response like this could be taken as wanting to start a fight I assure you thats not why I'm doing this .. ..BUT I just wanted to say that I for one did not think he was too emotional and its not fair to say he was...some people really care and love action figures, comics tv shows, movies art whatever the heck it may be they are passionate about it--if one person thinks the level of passion is 'scary' or 'too much' well..thats their opinion--I for example LOST it when i saw what Playmates did to the Terminator Salvation and Star Trek movie toys they rrrreaaallly blow! I also got pretty pissed at seeing a repainted crappy Snake Eyes for Resolute when he is clearly so friggin awesome in the show makes some fans and people angry and upset, thats just the way it is. That being said I even made the same mistake apparently these are just prototypes so my bad...which does make sense because Snakes legs arent even painted so I just missed--I literally saw 'Resolute Snake Eyes and Gung Ho and got excited, saw them and was like "Ehhhhh...." Also I dont know if anything will change, I'm really HOPING they do but Gung Hos friggin arms look to be repainted Roadblock 25th Anniversary arms..what the HELL man those arms really suck for holding weapons, I really hate when they repaint things its so annoying. Either way I am so excited to get my hands on some Resolute figures, I hope they make all the characters from the show! Heck even a dead Bazooka with morgue table lol! |

That is not a Resolute Gung Ho or Snake Eyes. I also find the Roadblock, Wild Bill and Destro photos a little fishy. I would hope Hasbro would give us something more interesting than reused parts, much in the same way they did with Duke, CC and the Cobra Officers. And why would Hasbro use the old Destro head and not the new one created for the comic back? I'll believe it when I see it officially released from Hasbro. Until then this is fun speculation.
Heyyyyyyyy wait a minute good call on that! It does seem kinda fishy...I really hope they are not the actual figures because this repainting business really urks me to no end... however that Roadblock figure looks awesome and the body on Destro look amazing...but that head look ridiculous on him |

Much like the current Resolute comic pack with Tunnel Rat, the characters don't necessarily represent their appearance in the cartoon. The red Lamprey was also probably the one that was previously announced in a Diver Duke (now Wetsuit)/lamprey Resolute comic pack. I think were just now seeing the things that were supposed to be on shelves the past few months, but got shelved due to the movie push. |

One's a comic pack version and the other's a seven pack lackey. Or so I speculate.

since they turned Roadblock into Heavy Duty for the movie i'm hoping "Resolute Roadblock" comes out as "Movie Roadblock"
