Wow. So as of right now over 80% of fellow Tankers dig ROC to some degree. Very interesting....

I just can't get into it. And I don't want to get into it just because other people like it. I got into GI Joe again with the 25th line because it was the GI Joe I knew and loved. I don't mind them updating the look of GI Joe. Heck, Look at Resolute. A perfect example of updating an old look and bringing it into the future without losing the look and feel of the 80's Joe’s. ROC is just a Hollywood update that goes too far from the GI Joe I know and love.
I will only pick up ROC that are 25th styled, aka Thunder, Monk wrench. I will also get vehicles I like like the Snowcat (even though they screwed that up to buy not keeping it all white). |

Need more votes. But so far it's looking like "most" of the 'Tank likes RoC product.

I started off being very apprehensive when I saw the unique uniforms being dropped in favor of standardized uniforms (both the blue pyjamas and the reactive armor). This has since grown on me as it actually seems more correct from a true military perspective.
I certainly don't like all of the current RoC stuff. Like many, I'm not a fan of CC or the new viper look (with the exception of the elite viper), but I have picked up a number of Joes, many of whom have begun to surpass some of the 25th/ME figs for me. Now that I've seen pics of what is to come, I'm excited to see more RoC stuff. I do wish that we'd get the old filecard format back though...these just seem so cheap and tacked on. |

Not starting anything, but statistics can be skewed in questioning and limitations of answers. This why you can never really accurately trust any poll that is not written in legalise.

I just did this so that we could get an idea of the general feeling on the 'Tank for the reception of the RoC toys so that when someone goes "we know that most of the people here don't like 'em" they're talking out their butt (or vice versa). Taking out the middle option and doing an even 50/50 split to "like" or "dislike", and I'll even do a 20 to "like" and 21 to "dislike" (the numbers at the time of doing this were: 42, 41 and 14), we get 62 Like and 35 Dislike. So I think it's pretty safe to say that most of the 'Tank likes RoC.

Dude I'm so with you! Some of those figs are amazing! Not Just good AMAZING! The new Beachhead alone has renewed my faith in the line.

I agree. I personally think all statistics are bogus. You can affect how the polls skew by where you ask your questions as well. Too many variables factored in that can skew a poll one way or the other.
I just did this so that we could get an idea of the general feeling on the 'Tank for the reception of the RoC toys so that when someone goes "we know that most of the people here don't like 'em" they're talking out their butt (or vice versa). Taking out the middle option and doing an even 50/50 split to "like" or "dislike", and I'll even do a 20 to "like" and 21 to "dislike" (the numbers at the time of doing this were: 42, 41 and 14), we get 62 Like and 35 Dislike. So I think it's pretty safe to say that most of the 'Tank likes RoC. but like i said before, you have to take that middle ground for what it is. I said I liked some of it, but in honesty I only like 1%, so if we are factoring that in I might as well hate the line as I only like the repaints and PP Snake Eyes.
