Thanks Frank, we gotta stick together on this one! Oh man, where do I start? I believe everyone knows my thoughts on the 25th stuff by now, so I probably don't need to go into every detail again. I did give them a fair chance (bought both of the first Joe and Cobra five packs), and sadly they only confirmed my suspicions. I was very disappointed, not only with the new body type (chest join, head...urgh!) and fragility of the rotten things, but the cartoonish styling really blew it for me, a confirmed realism lover. I could go on, but you know the story.
Frank hit the nail right on the head...if we refuse to buy the cr@p Hasbro pump out, they'll stop pumping out cr@p. Hence my refusal to buy any subsequent figures until they revert to something akin to the quality of the "old" days (dream on!).
