Well, All Mastercollector has to work with is whatever Molds hasbro hasn't lost. I think all in all what they put together this year was pretty nice. I have wanted a Headhunter Stormtrooper for YEARS, but I'm not gonna pay $40.00 each to Army build them.
Let's look at past offerings;
2002 = Crimson Strike team AWESOME!
2003 = Operation Anaconda Eh?!? Crap IMHO (And the only set I DON'T have!)
2004 = Escapades in The Everglades (Dreadnok set) Ok, not great, but OK!
2005 = Mars Atacks AWESOME!!
2006 = Mercenaries Awesome (Minus the Chrome Avenger, Cobra Mortal!)!
2007 = Tanks for the Memories Should be called Tanks, but no Tanks!) Loved the Female doc, Sparks and the night Stalkers, but not enough Army builders! And I have way too many original 13 members.
2008 = Headhunters! About time. I missed a lot of the few good figures they had in 1992-1995!
At Least MC/ the GI Joe Club has an excuse. They are not a very profitable organization. They have to survive on the scraps Hasbro gives them...and I think all in all, they have done pretty good (Except the 2003 set! BLEECH!) Hasbro on the other hand should be ashamed of the crap they put out wave after wave. How many 25th Versions of Duke, Snake eyes, Storm Shadow and Cobra Commander are there already...and we're only up to what? Wave 8? That's inexcusable!
