I just got bad news from a family member who's sick and all of sudden arguments about dolls or action figures from characters that don't even exist that aren't accurate to their original appearance really don't matter anymore.
My point is if you need to vent out about a toy you don't own because it doesn't fit your preferences and you are not 12 years old then you need to get your priority in life check. I get amazed how much a freaking hobby rules on someone's life there is more important things in life to complain about I know that much. I always though this type of forums was to enjoy the Old-boy inside all of us and celebrate the total dorkyness of the hobby in harmony and joy. Use it as a form of escapism from reality but if that also is going to become a burden then they are some serious issues to be dealt. Just my 2 cents. Because I have priority in my life...I'm venting my dislike of these toys in a TOY forum. This type of forum is to discuss TOYS and however we feel about them. and I feel. that they suck. with the exception of Duke and Storm Shadow. A lot of people seem to be offended that I'm so blunt about my opinion. I'm sorry I dont agree with you? and to the first few who were confused as to what I hated.... I'm posting in the sideshow Joes forum...therefore I am writing about the sideshow Joes... I still feel the same about these toys, most of them are ugly, and too pricey. Hasbro released a Baroness doll for the movie. That looked very nice and half the price. I remember the days when Sideshow started out. Their Monster figures were the shit. and other than certain butt ugly face sculpts, Sideshow has released a lot of nice figures. But I feel that the facial sculpts and scales of certain figures in the Joe line look horrid. Cobra Commander's head is gigantic compared with the rest of his body. The Cobra sniper looks too generic, if not for the cobra emblem and helmet, he'd pass for any ol terrorist. Same with the up coming Firefly. Snake Eyes looks off. He has bony little girl arms compared with the rest of his size. and the addition of so much unneeded gear further throws off his look. I still say that if not for all the crap on them, the figures would not only look better, and less weighed down....but a lot more agreeable in price also. oh...and to all the guys who think I'm an obsessed freak who needs to get a life? who's really the nerd? the one making the argumentative post? or the guys getting heated up enough to reply? |

Have you seen Cobra Commander in hand / in person to make that statement?
I have one on the way, but everything I have heard says that the figure looks awesome with the coat on.. I see no reason to remove it. |

I HAVE seen pictures in reviews of the figure. The one with the coat makes his torso look undersized. The one with the cape makes his head look like a watermelon with a mask on. |

You DO realize this is a forum about toys right?

I have not call you freak or anything for that matter. I'm at a GI Joe forum and everyone is entitled on their own opinions neither have I been offended by why your saying because in all honesty I don't care about the Sideshow figures because they are retardly expensive. I'm not going to stop you for voicing whatever frustrates you. You have your opinion so do I. In this case I have an opinion on how your coming across when you are "whining" or a better term criticizing a toy. If you take offense of my opinion then all I can say is that's not my intention but I'm not saying sorry either 'cause all in all just like you I'm writing my opinion on a subject matter. Also I'm a big nerd like everyone in this forum is. This is a GI Joe toy forum can't get more nerdy than that. |
