Certain things you can't do. You can't like the A's and Giants. You can't like the 9ers and the Raiders. You can't like the Yankees and the Mets.
I do, however like most action lines. My only criteria being, I has to look cool. So once I get more dough, I'll be doing Transformers, Star Wars, and other cool figures. Since I've been apart of the Tank, I could help but to notice that G.I. Joe seems to be the bastard child among collectors and Transformer collectors seem to look down on us. Why is that and where did the rivalry come from? Are the Transformer collectors still mad at Bumblebee being blown up in the G.I. Joe Transformers miniseries? |

Not to my knowledge I mean if there were hostilities we would have noticed it but I have not seen anything and not to mention there were a few contests here on the Tank that included Custom G.I.Joe/Transformers Figures and the Optimus Prime figure won.

Joe is my main hobby but I do collect some SW,TF, other cool stuff.
A lot of Joe collectors collect other lines and I do see them on other sites ( Rebelscum,Seiberton etc.) Gotta hand it to the TF collectors now, TF's come along way in articulation, almost like Joe-like in many cases now.

To my experience, most Joe collectors also like Transformers and vice versa, I've never experienced any anti Joe hostility.

There are too many GI Joe-Transformers crossovers to have a rivalry between collectors.

I don't think there's a rivalry of sorts, but I've encountered the occasional fan that looks down upon you if your not as "educated" as they are on the subject, but that's in all catagories, Transformers, Star Wars, etc.
I got to be honest with you guys, I'm not nearly as well versed in Joe lore as someone of you, but I think there's a real welcoming attitude here for all fans.
