Joes do I.T. better!

I'm not sure the Club is necessary, though nice to get reveals of new stuff from them, even though it's largely been poo-pooed as lazy and uninspired.
I see GI Joe as a palette for my creativity. The toys serve as inspiration and muse, but are not the end in and of themselves, if that makes any sense. I will almost always be excited to hear about new Joe product, but I see things like Eagle Force and their ilk carrying on the creative torch, offering more to the palette than Hasbro has in the last 5 years. The Club has been banking on nostalgia, and while that's fine for many and even me, I'm at the point now where new characters excite me more, including stuff I missed in the 90's. If they get renewed - Great! If they don't? - Great! there are pluses and minuses to both scenarios. For instance, no more FSS will make my wallet happy, in part. :-) |

The Sgt. Savage team would be great to have as ME figures. I'm a fan of the story and design but couldn't accept the figures.I have exactly 3 from that line, Sargent savage and general blitz still in package and a second Sargent loose for the accessories for a custom I made.

We all get together and drink the kool-aid. It was fun while it lasted.

Don't we technically have that with Marauder and their MTF?

Maybe Hasbro needs to loosen up on the trademark so the other small companies turning out similar figures and build what they really want to ( I assume), if Hasbro is not going to further it let others used it for a few years freely.

What happens to our community after The Club loses its contract? Does anyone really think that Hasbro has plans for anything? Will it go back to 'unofficial' GIJoe Conventions like in the James DeSimone era?
I say we, as the community, seize control. Not sure what the entails...

I said this somewhere else... I think once the club is gone, we'll see mtf put out "sets," kinda like they a,randy do with their weapons. Sets like "commando" and "ranger."

Not really. Those are more just generic army figures. Sure you can kitbash or do some customs to make certain joes, but as a whole I don't feel it is.

It’s been my experience, that “after the club”, there’s usually a bunch of poor dietary & lifestyle decisions, followed by a boatload of regret & a trip to the clinic!
