Dude, I WISH that I could play still, but that part of my brain broke in '89 or so.
I'd open the figured, fidget with them and their accessories, set up a huge battle, then just be...done, feeling kind of empty. Picked up some Joes and got into the 12" stuff a few years later for the sake of making goofy home movies, which led to action figure "collecting." I often think that's what's up with all the dios and figure comics, they're a way to kind of play, and get into a narrative and all. Please share your stories though! I'd love to hear about anybody's fun times. Partially because I'm jealous, and also because it's intersting to see how people have these characters interact proir to knowing their film roles, kind of like playing with Boba Fett before Empire came out, but on a grander scale. |

Yes, my two kids see to that. We like to mix universes. Bring some Marvel stuff into the Joe verse. Nothing like Ironman/Stark Industries fighting a newly created MARS Mass Device…

When I open up a new figure, I usually mess around posing it in different ways with the different gear, but that is far as it goes. I wish I could play still, it would make me feel like I got my money's worth more...

My nephew and I have fun with the Joe 'verse.
He is old enough to understand plots and missions, so I set up some from time to time. Here are the ongoing missions (with tie-ins to the new ROC line): GI Joe: Although the Team had been dispersed some time ago, a new threat has re-surfaced to call some familar folks (along with some new faces) into the fray of danger. A Team was assembled from some of the veterans of GI Joe and sent to investigate a 'training area'; known to be used by the once infamous COBRA organization. The participants have recently been through their briefing and are now geared up and ready to go. COBRA: Scrap Iron is making a play for additional leadership. He has aquired some new weapon technology that may bring back the old 'gun and done' days of the Organization. Resolved to not just sit around and draw a pension from the 401K that the 'Enterprise' setup so long ago, he is gather new forces to revamp COBRA Island and help a new leader Evolve. Those are the skeleton plots we are working on this month. Fun stuff. |
