I personally love the 25th figures and the way they capture the ARAH spirit from when I was a kid, but lately I have been thinking it might be kind of nice to have the characters updated. I know, I know- repaints aren't popular, but I would love to see figures like Airborne modernized and dressed more realistically, maybe digital camo or something. Maybe not to Resolute extreme, but that would be ok too since Duke rocks hard. I love what they did with Wild Bill in the SRO pack.
I would also love it if somebody (Hasbro, Marauder, whoever) made up some realistic webgear, helmets, and backpack sets for use with the joes and cobras. What say you?

digital camo would be awesome and maybe like a 5 pack of Dress uniform Joes. Proably wouldn't sell but that is what I want. Now!

yeah, that would be a lot better IMO than a new Torch with a brown vest, darker pants and black accessories. That is what I find most appealing aspect of the Resolute line, it seems more current

That would be cool to see some newer editions to the figures. I work at a target now part-time in the toy section and I even hear people often complaining that the joes are outdated big time. Maybe that's why Hasbro has been releasing limited info on the summer and fall figures.

i would really like the crimson guards updated or should i say redone, i was so disapointed with them compared to vintage. i think their masks (helmets) look funny. mabe its just me but i think they could have been done a lot better. also another thing that bothers me is how bats arm attachments where so huge. i want all 3 attachments to fit in his backpack like the vintage. just some retooling i think would be usefull.

Word up! I think thats what the Resolute and movie lines should represent, and of course to bless there movie/cartoon counterpart. I starting buying G.I.joe's again during the V-vs-V days, but my heart nor interest were fully into it. Then around '07, I seen the 25th version, and damn, I was in love again. The nostalgia was the push to truly collect Joe's, and get away as far as I could from the Valor bullsh!!t. They should stick to continuing this design, while updateing the Joe's through different interpertations laced from other mediums. BUT...I really dig Hasbro introducing new characters to the already existing line up, a la Wraith and Para-Viper figz. Ya dig?
