Just wondering what you guys thought of seeing the new 25th anniversary GI Joe figures at Toy Fair a few years back before Comic Con became the master and ruler of all.
Were you impressed at seeing the 25th anniversary stuff and did your jaws drop to the floors? |

It was awesome. It was like when the girl you've been seeing for several years dumps you and you ask out the girl you've been lusting over because you're suddenly a free man and she says yes and it's the 3rd date and you know at the end you're going to get some. You know what I mean?

I thought they were pretty cool, but at that time I still wanted them to go back to making new O-Ring figures so I was interested but not exactly blown away. However, as the years have gone on and the quality improved to PoC/30th I think they have given us some of the best Joes of all time.

I heard that, but aside from not having O rings, you gotta admit that the sculpts were some of the best we'd seen to that point.

Sort of like that. 25th was a damn strong line, and the sculpting (with the exception of the diaper crotch) was for the most part fantastic. It's what really ushered in the modern era of Joe and gave us some idea of the things that could be done in the line.

Truthfully, I thought it was awesome to see new 4 inch figs, but I was sad to see the 8 inch Sigma line go.. they really are awesome.

The diaper crotch was pretty bad, and so was Duke's baby-face, but the proportions were out of this world.
