I know mostly you guys are big fans of the realistic stuff from the toyline but, the realistic it is still necessary ?

Depends on what you are referencing as the not realistic portion.
If you mean the design of the figure, I don't mind, as long as it's realistically colored. I really hated all the gold on the 1st batch of Classified Joes. As for weapons, I don't mind SE's futuristic looking weapons; I just didn't like the holes in them. Even figures like Beacchhead, I don't mind his weapon, if it weren't molded a solid green. If they did it in black, I wouldn't mind it. Same with Duke, I like the re-deco versions rifle and will actually use that for my Duke when I get that one. The original one just had the gold and the plasma looking blue parts which is what I didn't like.

I successfully dyed Beach Head's and Gung Ho's guns.

I still like realistic guns. Colored uniforms can be a little more daring to a point. I get the need to give the characters some individuality.

I didn't mind Gung Ho's too much. I just didn't like the green for Beach Head.

I don't mind sci-fi aspects of GIJoe at all. 'Realism' has never been what ARAH has been about. I don't mind brighter colors and crazy outfits. Stop with all the knee pads and bandanas though.

They just need to keep the mix right, like ARAH always did. It was pulpy action adventure with a military theme. The Joes lean a little more "realistic", Cobra more sci fi, and the Dreadnoks, Iron Grenadiers, etc thrown in for added spice.
That doesn't mean it can't get serious and heavy though. The Snake Eyes story, about as heavy as it gets. Hama got the balances right, of course. .

I still like the more modern POC and later styles over the 25th and now Walmart releases.

I'm just asking that because the realistic style is overdate/obsolete and is a thing of past.
