A lot of the comments are funny to read now and certainly didn't age well, with lots of "6-inch Joes will fail" and "nobody wants bigger GI Joe figures". It's fun to re-read old posts though.
I unloaded my entire ME collection on here a couple years back. Don't regret it and I don't miss those at all. I did keep all of my o-rings though and will never get rid of those. It was a custom by a fan and wasn't actually ever sold or made by any company. Hope that helps! No they didnt age well @ all except maybe destro & dolomites comments possibly freds as well , there was a alot of hate . Now its tons of love multiple vehicles well over 120 figures made .. and people crying about missing out BOO HOO !!

Same, because the last few waves of figures were ugly-looking, poorly kitbashed junk and the plastic quality was often questionable (I stopped collecting 1/18th Star Wars figures and shifted to Black Series for largely similar reasons). But now I've gotten into Joytoy's stuff and it's all so far beyond Hasbro's product that I'm now questioning why I ever started collecting 1/12th toys in the first place.

Yeah, I used to know a lot of guys who said the same thing about Mego's old 1/9th-scale figures.

I love the 1/12, but man is the space it takes up killing me. Wouldn't be so bad with 1 line, but if you collect anything else that is also in that same scale or larger...good luck

LOL Ok, man. I'll bite...Classified being 1/12 can pack in more detail and actually have it look great than tiny 1/18th can touch. I've held Acid Rain figures. They are cute lil figures. But no where near as detailed as 1/12 Classified figures.
