Y'know, this topic comes up every now and then on the JBL when things are low. Like when VvV came out! (LOL!) Seriously tho, what DOES keep people into this franchise? I mean, we both see so many people griping about things, we know Hasbro will never do right in the end.

I guess I'm just a GI Joe fan. However, JoeDios is an isolated community in that we are in the game because we enjoy taking pictures of our figures in action. (well, most of us do). I like the hunt, unfortunately. I LIKE the figures too. Seeing what's coming gets me, for the most part, excited too. THe next couple of selections aren't all that great, imo.

Y'know... I think I like the updated molds simply cuz I like to see old stuff updated. I mean, I'd love it if Metallica went back into the studio and redid Ride the Lightning and Kill 'em All cuz man, James's voice is just horrible, y'know? Or like, Iron Maiden playing The Prisoner live and putting it on a cd. Maybe it's just modernization? I'm sure KMFDM would love to go back and redux their material so it doesn't end up sounding half-@$$ed and dated!
