That and the fact we KNOW we are getting an Alley Viper and Baroness in Wave 2 made it a good enough day for those of us who collect 6 inch.
It would be interesting to see a poll posted for this, as well as sub categories for 6 inch and 3 and 3/4 fans to see the reactions from each of those groups.
I must have missed the reveal of the Baroness and Alley Viper (which if done properly would be excellent additions for those who collect the line). The comments about Storm Shadow and Gung Ho have not been too satisfactory in addition to the comparisons of Cobra Commander in the light blue to the Captain Crunch. Red Ninja seems like a bit of a deviation from the comic approach- I almost felt it would have been better suited as a Night Creeper Ninja.
I don't want to poo poo on another's parade, if it was all you'd hoped for I am glad. I simply feel that there seems to be a disconnect between the design team and what the 6 inch crowd was expecting/asking for in the deviation from the character original designs and/or accessories which they have been equipped with.
I am certain you could understand how today's presentation left many of the 3 and 3/4 fans feeling a bit... shall we say neglected. I would love to see a joint approach from this GIJOE design team to develop the line in both scales equally (I understand this is unrealistic, but it would be great to share in the excitement rather then feel neglect).
