I disagree! My very existence is fueled by nostalgia, so I'd much rather have new versions of characters as they looked when I was a kid. But to each their own, and since I've got "classic" versions of very nearly every character I care about, I have no problem with Hasbro switching gears for the future -- it'll save me some money!

Funny you should say this, because back when JvC first started, I remember saying that I wished they'd just released better-articulated, more detailed updates of the original Joes, in their original uniforms! I would've been far more interested in that line if they had -- for example, I've bought almost every 25th Anniversary figure that is a faithful re-creation of the original (and some more than once as they kept "improving" them), while I really only picked and chose what JvC, etc. figures I wanted. And the same thing is happening with Rise of Cobra. Since the movie figures came out, my Joe purchasing has come to a near-standstill!
Now, all that said -- I
do want the Resolute Roadblock!!
