So I was thinking about the cardboard ping pong table that was included with the Pit. I kind of think the concept of that extra item is cool, but why didn't Hasbro make it out of plastic? I know the obvious reason.. cost. Yet Hasbro will make small detailed computer stations, the clear Hoth computer screen etc. Does Hasbro think that G.I. Joe is not important enough to have cool plastic items too?
Or will this carboard ping pong table be a HTF item in 20 years? |

I'm sure they cut as many corners as possible to keep the Pit profitable at 100 bucks, including cardboard ping pong tables.

Simply put, Joe doesn't make enough money for Hasbro to do stuff like that.

I wonder why they never put more necessary items in these things, like how about a potty? Its a friggin RV on steroids so a crapper would be cool! Of course if your "Joe Tough" I guess you do as the bears do and use the nearest tree. Besides if they made that outta cardboard once or twice of draining all the Yo Joe cola out of the ol' bladder and its in a pile of slop all over the floor ;}
