The end of nostalgia featuring a toyline where the two flagship figures are STEEL BRIGADE and SGT SLAUGHTER. Yeah, ok.
Philosophical ruminations are all well and good, and there are plenty of toy lines doing originality well, but the bottom line is Action Force is a subpar toyline with terrible uninspired character designs. Their version of Steel Brigade is vastly inferior to the Pursuit of Cobra version and their Slaughter looks like a geriatric Popeye. The one decent design, SWARM, is a rip off of a DC character. 😄😄 |

I truly love this guy. He has a video crying man baby tears that looks like a proof of life piece following a kidnapping.
Bonus points to speak for all collectors. I wonder what the sales are for Vala vs Joe? His point is that nobody cares about Joe and Hasbro isn?t doing anything bold. If that is his metric I guarantee fewer people know what the hell those figures. |

These Vala girls are getting so down on all things Hasbro, it's becoming a syndrome.

Also it’s not like Hasbro hasn’t tried to reinvent the brand: Sgt Savage, Xtreme, Sigma 6, Rise of Cobra….

At the end, G.I. Joe is making now some big money for Hasbro. The Hiss tank got funded in record time. That is all the proof that Hasbro needs to know they are doing something right.
Retro Blasting can hate on the current G.I. Joe as much as he likes, but other people likes them and invest their money in making the line successful. |

The Valaverse shill's numbers must've been stagnant and didn't see the expected bump after his own Iconicon, so he posted another shill video, making a point to attack Hasbro in the process (laughably after how fast the HISS funded), and get everybody here all riled up. Michael's already admitted selling his soul for clicks and views (his response video to his own Kathleen Kennedy dis). Sadly in the end, judging by the reactions here, he's sitting behind his comp, running his hands through his ever-retreating combover, with a smile on his face... getting exactly what he wants.

She still does the livestream with him. Strangely, the other two guys they used to do the livestream with are suddenly absent with no explanation.
