I'm pissed that they killed off the line...
Incorporating the line into ROC/POC is just another attempt to cash in on the fans of the line... It's not a true incorporation either.... I loved the 25th/ ME line not just for the figures, but for the packaging. Didn't hasbro say that the ME line wouldn't be killed off, just put on hold until ROC ran it's course.... I don't call POC the return of ME... Hasbro basically lied, while killing off a very successful line during it's peak... I've only bought 3 items from ROC... I bought 99 percent of the 25th/me/resolute offerings... Not angry, just still pissed that they killed it off when it had so much more potential... Too bad, other companies are now getting my money... I almost jumped on to the Marvel Universe line, but again Hasbro basically bitch slapped me when they killed off 25th/ ME.... It hurt and still does... Maybe I missed out on something, but it feels like a different team of people are handling ROC/ POC, then 25th/ME (that group seemed to care).... |

And yes, I'll say it
The 25th line brought me back in toy collecting after almost 20 years of not buying a single toy. ROC has basically killed that off. |

I know this may sound stupid, but every time I read "POC", it makes me think of "POS", which I've read for many years online as code for "Piece of s---", so naturally every time I see the letters "POC", I think "Piece of crap" even though the Pursuit of Cobra figures are supposed to be better than ROC. Just had to get that out. I've been holding it back ever since I first saw the letters "POC". lol

The Pursuit of Cobra. It is the new Joe Line for 2010. It has been showing up in picture form all year long.

And they look so much better than the RoC stuff too! Last year at this time, I was dead set against buying anything RoC except maybe the first TRU exclusive figures of Firefly & Barbeque. After that, nothing.......now I have every single carded figure and variant MOC and almost every exclusive MIB/MOC and some vehicles too. With this PoC line, I'm already going into it knowing that I want them all if not close to it! Still not sold on the Sand Serpent Night Raven repaint though. The figures look way better and some of the vehicles are awesome (Wolf Hound = Snowcat!). That mail away Cobra Commander is sweet too!

I'm holding out hopes that POC is better than ROC and that Joe makes a big push for the 30th.
