And Jay, "weak" is an understatement. Sure, reused bodies can work and repaints and blah blha blah... But Hasbro tried to make it a point that they were doing all new molds and they'll have the most articulation ever. Now, I need to go back and read the official Hasbro blurb. Because maybe, just maybe, Hasbro's sneaky wordmeisters phrased it more like, "The 1st 10 figures will have unique molds" and everyone else will be rehashed!

This summer, Hasbro will release 25 collectible 3 3/4" figures to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of G.I. JOE VS. COBRA.

Featured below are the first ten action figures to be revealed.

Sure to delight fans both new and old, 25th Anniversary Figures are all new sculpts and the most detailed and articulated G.I. JOE figures ever!

Ok. If we dissect this bad boy... It says that there will be 25 figures, not characters. And it also says that the 25th Anniversary Figs will be all new sculpts but it doesn't specify that EACH figure will be a nu skulpt, right? This just means that Hasbro chooses their words carefully. Now, how many of us actually looked at it this way, said something, but as usual, it was dismissed?
