Action Force - 6 Inch Figure Line by Former Hasbro GI Joe Designer Bobby Vala

Stygian · Today, 09:48 AM

I attended JoeCon (I refuse to call it ValaCon) last year primarily to see/buy Action Force product, but this year I'm feeling less enthusiasm about that prospect. I'm still going as all the stars are aligning to make that happen thankfully, but I have less reason to care this time. Good thing there's still plenty about Joe and related product to attend. And it's always fun to bask in the warm glow of all things Joe and the Joe hobby with others of similar ilk/madness. Last year it was fun to bolt to the local cineplex to catch a showing of GI Joe the movie and see other fans from JoeCon in attendance, but sadly there won't be anything like that this year. Oh well, still plenty of fun to be had I suppose.

Be sure to go up to Vala & explain why you no longer support him, he should hear that!

All due respect but not sure that's my style. I'd prefer to vote with my wallet and of course come here and 'loudly' complain. LOL...

The expressions on all their faces look like they've seen some shit let me tell you.

Have you thought about meeting up with Kenny? He seems like a great guy to share a beer with (I would if I still did the con scene).

Yes. All that. And his name is "Booby". Come correct newbie. (I kid. Welcome aboard!)

No shit, right? It would just empower his god complex to think someone actually put forth effort to speak to him and address issues. That is a total lose/lose situation. Best thing to do IS hit that bottom line. (It's so very weird to be agreeing with you, Styg)

Michael French?s Facebook feed is pure gold. He?s a sentient ball of nerd rage and we?re not the only ones who thinks so.
