Back in the 1980's HASBRO had a fan/collector program called the MOBILE STRIKE FORCE TEAM where anyone could send in $5 with the form and join. Members got:
a gi-joe dog tag w/ name and address on a 24" chain a olive web belt with adjustable gijoe belt buckle. a laminated membership card a 17" x 22" full color poster a gijoe icon iron on patch and two newsletters each year about gijoe team and special offers. I joined master collector last year and got my club exclusive cobra commander and membership card. I get these lame ass trade magazine each month (nothing but ads from other collectors) and I paid $40 for the membership. Now I know things are different, times have changed, but why cant HASBRO bring back the MOBILE STRIKE FORCE TEAM? I would prefer HASBRO handle its own official collector club rather than some third party company out of texas, that sucks... Anyone else with me, are their oldschool members of the MSFT here on the tank? Does anyone else feel like I do about the sad state of the gijoecollectorclub

I was a part of the fan club! My parents still have my old belt buckle, I picked up a buckle and belt a little while ago to add to the collection (Too bad the buckle is too small to put on a real belt, I'd totally wear it )
I'm also a member of the new club. It probably could be better, but it could also be a lot worse. You could pay $40 and get promised a certain figure then have the company declare bankrupcy and have Hasbro make a new fan club that offers you a coupon to get a discount on their new toy that's a piece of crap (Sorry, I joined the Botcon club just before they went out of business and I still have a bit of resentment ) At least the way it is now, we can get figures like the black CC who was slated to be mass released but then canned at the last minute. Seems a pretty cool incentive for a club to me (I realise not all the figures have this history though) |
