I am downsizing my Joe collection considerably. I love Joes, but the ROC and comming POC lines just don't do much for me. That being said, 25th was a fantastic ride. I could say things like "Hasbro sucks" and "Rise of Cobra was an abomination," but I don't feel that way. This gave me one last great "Yo Joe!" I'm ready to move on from this collection now, and I am keeping alot of it because I will look back on these days of collecting with fondness. I will still be on the 'Tank, too, because this site ROCKS!!! (Thanks Destro, and all of the others who make it so fun!)
So as my Joe obsession rides off into the sunset (with most of my collection, including the Flagg), I posted this thread to reflect on what was a great adventure in my life. GI Joe is forever! |

I can understand your feelings, but I am glad to hear that you will still be around.

Yeah, I do this every couple of years. I collect a great collection, sell it off and start over. Just what I do.

But what I don't get is why sell off the stuff you love because of ROC or POC. Why not just not collect them and have a complete 25th set?

I agree, you should just pack it up and store it. No need to go thru the cycle of collecting it all over again...
