I'm just really not digging the new filecards. They just don't compare to the old ones. I've thrown most of them away I think. There is nothing about them that even makes me feel like I need to keep it for the figure to be complete.

Like almost every movie toy line I have seen, the toy companies skimp and Micky mouse their way through it.
I own almost all the file cards in existence and I have to say I will not collect these. I will probably break down and buy some figures but I will just keep them in the packaging. I have to wonder if Larry Hama wrote these for just some flunky back in the offices because the writing style sure seems different. Also, I agree, there is no impertinent information on them. It would have been better to at least keep the old file card format in consideration for the old school collectors. These cards don't fit with the old at all. It is inconsistent. As far as I can see, Hasbro hasn't done much to honor the old school collectors with this line. Hasblo seems to want to separate themselves from anything from the old line. I can't figure out why. There was so much which is good and sweet with ARAH. It is just inexplicable.

im keepin them all, i usually keep tha cards all my figures come on (all my figs not just tha joes), but im not bothering to cut these ones out like i do wit my other joes. on tha bottom front of tha card where tha names are, tha backside of that is sticky cuz its attached to tha bubble, so i separate it, then cut tha name section off as well as tha upc, toss tha upc part, and just stick tha name section back to tha bottom edge of tha card right under tha art. i tried to describe it best as i could, im sure u can all visualize it, and thats how im gonna do all my ROC figs

I trash them, but they aint like filecards over here, they dont have the information about the character, like they do on the US roc releases.

hah funny you ask.. i didnt even notice em, i threw them in a bag, an was like these things dont have file cards? an pulled em out the garbage bag an was like wow that's weak, an put em back in the bag..
these figures mean squat to me. they are good for customs, an some of the army builders are nice. i dont take these as serious as the 25th. there is nothing that pops on the card, an every figure i have i will rename.. |
