Im not to big a fan of how the movie seems to be goin, but hell, I think this looks real sweet. Nice pics of it. It would be better with Snow Job having Matching colors to the sled, but what ever.
And who in the hell knows, This could be the "freebie" in a snow two pack with a completly new HISS or a DTC HISS or something. As for a sled, I would have had it back in the day, It DOES look cool. Looks like removable missiles, the all now to common Spring fired missiles, but these are CONCEALED NICELY, and add to the look, and even some MG's in the body. No, I think its sweet. and the canopy pretty much covers up the driver...The only thing that could make it better would be a lil spot on the back for Stowage and FOTTPEGS TO HOLD 72 Figures... This thing is Tight..Go back to the paint room with snow job and make him match those blue colors perfectly, and this will sell..

At least I don't have the urge to gouge my eyes out with a with a dull railroad spike while viewing these pics. Thats a step in the right direction from what I've seen so far in the movie line.

Judging by the pics of that Rock Slide vehicle prototype, That thing is a piece of sh=t.
Well Hasbro, we all know that your a buisiness and all and don't give a rats ass about releasing things for the collector as long as your making profit, but you just threw away your meal ticket. Well, to put it plain and simple YOU JUST KILLED GI JOE. You see it looks like the crappy era of GI Joe vs Cobra, Valor vs Venum, Spy Troops has returned. I see the crappy action/sound attack is back also. Well its been a nice run w/ the 25th line and it was fun while it lasted. Now its time for the new crap to take over and I think we all understand why. Because it looks like Hasbro is trying to make the GI Joe brand name reborn again but this time w/ a new generation of kids. I will bet you that Hasbro will probably get McDonalds to promote the movie. But there still might be some hope left. Us collectors can only hope that the: the movie will flop the video game flop the new toy line will flop If any of those three things are a sucess and hasbro starts raking in the profits then we are finished for good. So until then I will see you all in the year 2032 if Hasbro desides to do a GI Joe 50th Anniversary line. I'm out and it has been a good year. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Why does everyone hate on hasbro when they do something that "we" perceive as wrong. Do you get mad when your girlfriend or wife doesn't bat 100%. I've come to realize that no matter what happens Hasbro will never get it all right. But I am happy because.... 1) we got 11 good waves, half of the comic packs were good.... 2) there are still a few good singles out there.... 3) we are getting a video game by EA which will guarantee it to have a shot at it being okay... 4) we are getting a movie that might suck... 5) We are getting resolute, and while I won't collect them , the figures look amazing and if they do a resolute cartoon on adult swim that will be great. 6) though resolute designs for the movie might have made more sense.... I do agree, what we have seen from the pics the movie figures look like crap....but I want to see completed pictures before I start condeming hasbro. I also agree with you that its a shame to see hasbro miss the mark on certain figures, when they have the molds and parts to make them awesome, but do a bad paint job or use Zartan's chest instead of the hiss drivers chest for Major Bludd LOL! It happens though... I say let's see what happens before we hate on Hasbro... |

I'm torn : the weapons are too distractingly big, but aside from that I can see myself liking this, maybe even loving it.

I like it as I'm down for any kind of vehicle in the 1/18 scale.

If you read his post, it sounds like hes not a fan anyway or he like to bitch about things. If someone is going to constantly bitch then why are they here? I have no issue with someone that does not like the movie toys, heck there will be things that I will not like but I am not going to go....the line is dead! How many times do we need to hear that? I can not say that he is a fan or not, that is his decision to make; it,s how you come across to others that sway an opinion.

It seems like you guys who have moderator under your avatar got a little too worked up about a rant on a message board on the internet. The guys who write those kind of rants are usually lonely and unhappy with every aspect of there lives, much less a toy line. It seems like you would be used to this, and not feel the need to respond so strongly. It's almost like you have some kind of personal financial interest in this movie. If you are profiting from the movie I would like to know how I can become a moderator. I'm going broke buying these toys I could use the extra cash.
This is a modernized, revamped Polar Battle Bear, no more no less. Haters hate on it because it's associated with the movie. I am glad at least a few guys around here have an open enough mind to give it a fair shake despite their pessimism toward the movie. Kudos to you guys. |

Nicely said Thunderdan. We have no financial ties to the movie but we all AS collectors have an interest in this property. If it does well, we will get more of the stuff we want, if not then not so much. People need to give the movie a chance, heck we have yet to see a trailer for this thing and the constant complaining gets old as he stated. There is a way to express ones feelings without going on a dead horse rant. As far as the toys go, we have only seen 2 pieces, 1 directly from the movie (the other a tie in). Waite till you A- Either see it in the ackage or B- Have it in your hand before you bash it. Give this stuff a chance guys
