I don't know...she's a PR person for a large corporation that is generally delivering on a brand most GI Joe collectors are pretty happy with. I don't care what she actually thinks about GI Joe. I do think it's understandable to not react well to adults losing their mind at you over something outside of your immediate span of control, much less the number of comments I see online with people picking apart her appearance. She's doing a good job for the brand and baseline human decency would go a long way.

Adults gatekeeping employees over the "authenticity" of their fandom is so creepy weird to me. Pick the most boring industry you can think of: drywall? nabisco saltine crackers? adult contemporary music labels? Heck, pick our own jobs. Do you love it? Do you love your team? Are you a ***FAN***? More importantly, if you do your job very well, does it matter one bit to you if a customer decides you're not doing your job with enthusiasm that's believable? What preposterous criteria. "This tile salesperson is giving me all the information I need to make the right decision on the best options for my kitchen backsplash, but I'm just not getting that they *feel* it." The PR industry - much like many of our own jobs - involves fake enthusiasm. I also think it is a repulsive element of fandom that, of the public-facing figures on Hasbro's many brand teams, it's the woman on the team whose sincerity is the subject of our debate, and not, say, that goth guy with all the jewelry - or literally *any* male.

I, for one, enjoy Lennys facial hair. The way his moustache and goatee area is black and beard is white. Looks badass, almost seamless.
Also cool 99 percent of neck barbels should be universal moving ahead. Emily did well to address Target situation. Easy for me not to be upset, because I managed to preorder one; hopefully it is improved moving forward like she mentions regarding a prior notification/heads up. With the latest Walmart alignments, there is likely more going on behind the scenes than we know. Even Walmart not being retro exclusive anymore (ditto for TF and PP in Canada). These are welcomed changes by me. |

Honestly I think it?s better for the lines to not have ?real? fans on them anyway.
A line like Joe especially needs a fresh perspective added to it and they managed to do that. We all like Classified and what the line has given us so why are we in year 5 still criticizing Emily?

Yep, it looks a little unproportional , but it works.
If you do that , you?re better off switching the legs, and then changing the rubber diaper crotch over snowjobs. Quick kicks waist is a little smalller than snowjobs so just heat it up for about 30 sec and form to fit. |
