The movie may be cool. We've got to all remember that a lot of what we are hearing about the movie is unsubstantiated rumor that was started to gauge our reaction.

i agree. if not for joe dios i wouldnt know anyone other then myself who does anything with joes anymore. so i would not be nearly as into it.
as you say, the movie could be cool. i think were just expecting the worst, which is what we should do. that way if its any good, well think it to be even better. and most of what i have herd on here i have read interviews from hasbro that state something different.

sounds so much like my story. i bought a few joes in 2000, not many because i was the only person i know that had any interest in them. still had 10 or 12 from when i was a kid. then i found joe customs one day just wanting to look back at the greatest toy ever. it eventually led me here. now im trying to get the old joes that i loved so much, not every joe, but at least the ones i had as a kid. as a kid neither i nor any of my cousins collected vehicles, but with this site im wanting them more and more. i will never have a fulfilled collection anywhere as close as frank or probably any other on joe dios, but having what i had as a kid and some new stuff will be a life dream come true.
the worst thing i have to say about the 25th is this. the figures are ok with me, i do like the oldies better but still. so many others hate them, that i am starting to worry if we will lose so many more people on here. ive been here right at 2 years, longer then a lot. but so many of the ones who i got use to seeing post and pic from have left. now im worried that with the 25th people that im use to seeing on here, even if i dont talk to them may be gone.
