Not much interest in arah? Please define..

Over 1,000,000 US raised on Sky Striker Haslab in under 7 days

Over 10,000 orders of Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow O-Rings in under 7 days

That would be a success! Looking forward to supporting the ARAH 40th Anniversary line on top of being a massive Classified collector!

Let's be honest, Hasbro is delivering a little bit of everything and the most they've produced in almost 20 years! Win, win for all of us!

how do u know they already sold 10k snake eyes/ stormshadow? it doesnt say on the site. I did order 2 myself. and Im looking forward to seeing what cobra figures they plan to release. my hope is they bring back the original legs for the 1986 Viper. we havent seen one with the original legs since the 1990 Sonic Viper came out.

4658 Skystrikers backed up to this point X $229.99 = 1,071,293.43 Dunno about the SS/SE pack.

To have all stretch goals, we're looking at $4,139,280.

I am talking about my personal lack of interest in the announcement of new ARAH stuff, even though I really like the format. I'm not speaking for anyone else, and was curious to see if any one else had a similar response.

It sounds like there are a few people in about the same place as me, and others very excited for the potential return.

As someone pointed out, Hasbro also has a ton of New Sculpt molds not getting any use. As long as they're digging up old stuff, why not roll out some of the better NS stuff? Especially the vehicles. The Joes' version of the F22 Raptor, the ThunderSomething?, was fantastic.

I've never held a New Sculpt figure. Are they the same proportions of a vintage o-ring figure?

Scale wise, they fit in; aesthetically, they don't.

Take a look between the years of 02-06 on Yojoe to see what I mean.

Yeah, I've studied them on YoJoe, but have never seen one in person. They look like they'd be taller, but again...never held one.

Some of those "newscuplt" vehicles were nothing short of awesome. The Night Attack Chopper, Patriot Grizzly, and that jet all deserve rereleases

Very, very true- arguably some if the best in the history of Joe. Even some of the later figures are pretty damned good, it was just so hit and miss.

Well, I have my collection of original ARAH toys on display in my basement, and I have most of what I've always wanted from that era, specifically 82-85. I was excited to hear about the 0-ring comeback because I was hoping for an affordable option to replace some of my original broken Joes (like Scarlett, Stalker, Grunt, Grand Slam and Cover Girl). I'm a little put off by the pricing though, but guess it'll be less expensive than hunting down these original figures. I'm in the camp of 'let's see what they make' and definitely far from being all in on these.
