I am ready for more modern Joes. Even if it is 6 inch. Granted, I don't have much room for 6 inch as I do for 4 inch or smaller.

I’m prepared to drop cash on an exact repop of the entire ‘82-‘84 line, through Haslab.

If the Retro line continues to be popular, I could see Hasbro doing it for Joe. It would be incredible, they're sitting on so much money.

Unfortunately they didn't take care of the vintage molds like they did with Transformers and Star Wars.

I really dont see the excitement of moving backwards and re-releasing the old O-ring figures when we got better tooling and articulation nowadays. if you like the old ones, just buy the vintage ones. most of them dont go for THAT much and if you look hard enough you can find some good deals. I would really like to see the modern stuff keep going.

Proven fact, o rings still sell, modern era still sell, 12 inch still sell.
Super joe.....failed Sigma 6......failed Sgt. Savage.....failed G.I.JOE extreme....failed It's time to look at G.I.JOE in a way that both appeals to kids, and collectors. And not that 5 poa bs that they've done to star wars, they tried and failed during retaliation. It's time to modernize and rework GIJOE. And if they wanted to give 1/6 a go then go both adventure team and arah. But if we go 6 inch be prepared for failure, as the brand isn't just character driven, it's a vehicle driven line, and I don't see it being cost effective. Look back at new coke.....my point is don't mess with a formula that works

O-ring, ME, 3/4 to 4" scale, vehicles I am all in. Anything else is pretty much a pass for me. It has to fit into my original G I Joe collection. I am not totally against 6" scale figs, I just bought the entire Hasbro release of Overwatch figs, which I think they did an excellent job with it. But for me GI Joe is 1/18 scale or nothing.
