Okay, I didn't think people would actually think these were real. I just spent a couple of minutes last night quickly photoshopping the heads of different figs on various Snake Eyes bodies (and one Baroness body, just for laughs). I didn't think I did that good of a job on some of the 'shops, either. :-P I guess the various figure poses being so close to some of the poses in the photos must've helped.
It was just a joke to highlight how the movie (and, presumably, the new toys that will result) has departed so drastically from the unique characters of the original comic/cartoon to a new "everyone's the same" look. Personally, I'll probably buy the Joes they make from this movie. They'll make cool generic "commando fodder" if they all end up looking nearly identical. I don't mean to make fun of anyone who believed these were real, though. It's all in good fun! |

Like any good Joe fanboy I hope this movie fails tremendously so Hasbro stops putting money into the Joe line and maybe just maybe will get a few high dollar collectibles and maybe things will just be available online so kids can't find them. Even better yet maybe the movie will do so bad that Hasbro will decide to put Joe on hiatus and then I can happily just go to ebay for all my Joe needs.
Because if the movie was a huge success then Hasbro might be inclined to put more money into the Joe line and we would get all the different products like transformer fans are getting. I mean pretty soon they can go to the store and find 3 different lines! I couldn't make that decision. And don't get me started on a cartoon. It will be horrible and probably aimed at kids and new fans. This is my toyline and if kids don't like it like we did it in the 80's then to bad. And back on track, all movie figures will be crap. And I will complain about them when they come out. Of course I will buy at least 2 of each for my MOC collection and my loose collection. Maybe 3 of each for customs. But I will hate them. |

I am sure they will look like these.
Also I just threw up in my mouth. Please let me be wrong about this movie, because it looks horrible so far.

You're right. These have to be customs.
By the way, for the people that hate Ripcord (movie version), for what I heard was that the Ripcord character was originally Stalker, but someone thought it sounded too much like a bad guy and just renamed the character Ripcord. So Ripcord has all of Stalker's qualities, but has the name Ripcord. To me it sounds like they gave him the name because he is gonna be "ripping jokes". God this is terrible.

Hearing a Transformer say "what's up bitches" was pretty priceless.

Can you clarify: Did you just make something up then turn it into a reason why you think the movie will be bad? Or did I miss something?
