Will Zap's hand keep breaking like the original too?

Those are cool very cool but I am torn as a Joe fan. On one hand, those are awesome and blow my nostalgic mind; but on the other hand, this will add no new fans, in my opinion, which the brand desperately needs.

My feelings exactly. I'm tired of the nostalgia thing. I want joe to evolve into something new.

Cool. I'm tempted to get this line, but after doing the GG Jumbo Star Wars line to date, I'm questioning why I need so many giant versions of so many old figures I already have. They have them posed pretty stiffly if they are supposed to have the original articulation. I'm pretty sure I would NOT get them if they were just 5 POA homages.
I didn't really dig Joe until post-O13 so I'd be more excited to see the later figures. It would've been nice to hit us with a Cobra or Snake-Eyes in the initial reveal for a little more variety beyond the green shirts. It would be crazy if they do straight-arm versions and then the swivel-arms...crazy expensive too. They've touched on the major Star Wars variants in Jumbo, but all of those were more visually noticeable than an articulation difference. I'd rather they skip straight-arm or just do the straight-arm ones as exclusive variants or something. I don't think I'd want to be offered the straight-arm versions first, not knowing if swivel was coming later. Remember, by Star Wars pricing, you're looking at $75ish a figure for these. If these have more articulation, it makes you wonder if they'll cost even more. |

I hope they don't expect to dig so far into nostalgia as to expect folks to buy both straight armed and swivel. That would be too much.

I don't think this GG line interferes with any other potential modern Joe line, any more than Jumbo Star Wars interferes with 6" Black Series. Now where my 6" Joeys? Quote:

Any idea when these will be released? I'm gonna treat these like I do everything else ---- just get the figs I really want.
