I really like the new figures. The detail, the accessories, the poseablity as a whole (minus some bad arms here and there) and the availability win me over. I went cold turkey off the Joes as a teenager and barely thought about GI Joe for maybe 15 or 20 years. I started picking up Star Wars figures here and there, and then got into collecting clone troopers and bounty hunters. I never really did anything with them besides stand them on a shelf. I wanted more real life military stuff and was content with PTE and some BBi stuff. I didn't even know 25A was coming out until I saw the anniversary 5 packs, which I thought would look good with my other military themed items. Then I started taking pictures. Then I found Joedios. For me, the 25A brings back good memories and gives me a new hobby. When I see ARAH standing next to 25A, Im blown away by how much better the new figures look. They dont have blocky heads and molded on guns and knives. They are different heights from each other. Their legs pose like crazy. I wish they would improve a few things, like the Duke arms and diaper crotches, but to me they are some of the best toys to come out in a long time.
