OK, first let me say I have been a Joe fan for 30 yrs, and will all ways be one. That being said I have to say, I just bought the G I Joe Retaliation Ghost Hawk II, and I have to say this toy is a huge let down. I mean come on the duke figure is awful, he doesn't even have legs that bend at the knee, he is straight armed and straight legged. Wth? And the missiles are only half formed and when looking at the thing from underneath the hollow tale and bombs look awful and extremely cheap. Has Hasbro lost so much money that they have had to cut such corners? I know the toy is large and only 19.99 but I would have gladly paid 25.99 if it allowed them to fix this glaring piece of crap. I am sorely offended that Hasbro has done this, and now I am afraid to buy any other of their new toys in case they are as shoddy as this one. Maybe I am over acting, but I expect better quality from Hasbro.

Hellooooo Alabamian!! I agree with you 100% on the quality. I passed on the movie crap and focused on loose Renegades and some Resolute figs. I never got the Resolute packs and found them for 30 bucks each online the other day.

Was this really a surprise? Haven't we been going nuts about this since the reveals at Toyfair in February? Or when they were released six weeks ago?
I'm not trying to bust your balls homey but if you didn't know this was coming, you lived in a dark, desolate cave for the last 7 months.

The drivers for the vehicles are all like that.
Some of the later waves of Retaliation (like most other sub lines for Joe) will contain some of the better figures. It's just a matter of if they make it to retail. Hasbro will re-distribute wave 1 again next year or around the Holidays. (Hope for the latter) These have to sell through before the better stuff show up. Sucks you were in the hospital off and on for 8 months. There is some decent Retaliation stuff out there like the Joe trooper and the red ninja.
