Nothing official that anyone has heard, it may be on deep hyatus. life gets in the way, and all. It's equally possible it's gone and defunct.
I mean, projects being actively persued usually rate a blog or updates to facebook. I'm betting it died quietly soon after the point at which they found out how much it would be to fund a factory, which by appearances wasn't long after they registered their facebook page. I was really looking forward to a joe-scale harrier too. JoMi toys: Soldier Force V Silver Falcon Playset

I facebook post or blurb on the website just saying what happened or a simple "Sorry- things feel through" would have been decent with them knowing how many people were following and excited about the project. the way it dropped suddenly off the face of the internet with no word would even make me hesitate supporting anyone associated with this on even a kick-starter or something of a similar nature... but there's always the possibility that the sudden silence was a court-ordered sentence; so maybe they CAN'T say anything about it... oh well... Joe goes on.

Right. Being true 1:18 won't fit with the rest of my Joescale airfleet. I would have to add the F-14, F-16, F/A-18.....where would I put those?

Between all the complaints that it was an O-ring line and no retailers showing interest, I think it died before it even got started.

The o-ring thing probably was the biggest downside.

It had potential there's still a lot of GI Joe fans who only collect o-ring Joes, they may not be the vocal majority but they very may well be the majority of Joe fans. It had potential. The guys behind it had a passion for it and it looked like it was going to be a renaissance for 3.75" action vehicles. Hopefully it is resurrected in the future, I haven't heard any news on it in the past few years. |

The vehicles were the main interest. The vehicles and the old school cardboard Cobra missile base being redesigned into a proper playset.
