I really want to be a completist with this line, but Hasbro really is making it hard for me to justify the need for 5 of the same figure. man i hear you hasbro is going to do to this line what they have done to every line and over kill us with the ssame figs over and over agin. and when they sales werent that great we wonder why. stupid hasbro give me a break. THEY SUCK they do some great work and then kill it will the release of the same figs. |

I agree...yet here we all are holding our breath and saving our money to buy the aforementioned repainted figures!!
Maybe one day Hasbro will hire someone who can think outside the box, but until then I just wish I could find some new figures that havent been bent and crushed to hell and back during packing!!! |

any chance, Destro, you can answer if I ask if Snow Job's goggles will be removable or some similar-effect other gimmick so we can finally get a figure that does not have goggles hiding his eyes? no comment, I expect is possible, but it's a hope many probably share here after 24 years. |

[quote=Leonardo T Dragon]See, this whole notion that the line is selling insanely well is a bit misleading. Remember, with the 25A line, a case is ONE complete set (counting the black Timber if he's in there) and two extra figures. So, if a store gets two cases, it only takes two customers to essentially clean them out. This wasn't the case with Spy Troops or even Valor vs. Venom. Add in the fact that most stores only seem to be receiving two cases at a time and this line isn't the "hot seller" it appears to be. I'm not trying to burst anyone's bubble but rather trying to throw in a dash of reality.]
I have to disagree. I have walked into my local TRU and seen 10 Snake Eyes figures and 5 Storm Shadows and walked in the following day and found nothing. My TRU is getting multiple cases in on a regular basis and selling out within 24 hrs. This line is hot. I'm with you- I don't want to see another Snake Eyes before I see a Flash, or a Breaker, or a Zap, or a Rock 'n' Roll (alright you get the picture- I'm older than most of you), but the truth is these things are flying off the shelves- nothing is sticking- nothing. People are getting whatever they can and loving it. Where the crud is Major Bludd?! He's a terrifying enemy, trained by Destro, the enemy of GI Joe... does anyone else remember that? |

how bout a bit of old and new? Remember when mainframe came out? I remember the art for the figure had legs under the computer (go check for yourself) well the toy comes out and no legs under computer yet holes are there (prob a safety issue) but with the 25th can't we get a new mainframe, or dialtone? I'm happy to hear we're getting flash, and snow job, but give us fans some figures other than duke, snake eyes and stormshadow (I know, those are the kid friendly ones, but sheesh how many do we really need)?

I'm a tool, I'll buy all of these and anything else Hasbro throws my way. Probably 2 sets.
