I can't see it. It was so ill-conceived that it could never have lasted long. The set-in-the-future premise wasn't popular in Transformers' post-movie cartoon...and has that premise EVER been popular (Ninja Turtles Fast Forward seems to have slowed that line down, though I'm just going by what I see in stores).

As far as the toys go, Extreme showed arrogance on the part of Hasbro's Kenner design team. For years those bozos designed new toylines that got their butts handed to them at retail by A Real American Hero. Anyone remember Bone Age, Bill and Ted's toy line, Swampt Thing, Police Academy? Their only post-Super Powers hits were GHOSTBUSTERS, and the had-to-be-a-hit-because-the-movie-was Jurassic Park ? Then they got their chance to do their take on GI JOE and surprise, surprise, it bombed like so many Kenner lines before it!

The sculpting was that much better than 3 3/4". Certainly nothing special compared to innovators of the day, notably McFarlane's SPAWN. And I've picked up a few loose figures in lots over the years, and I've never impressed with them as action figures. Iron Klaw had an interesting look to him, though. Stone was Duke-redux. Freight was obligatory big black guy...except they apparently made his figure too small. Metal-Head was the trendy surfer-punk (sometimes I hate the 1990's). They didn't even make the Scarlett knock off and the Snake-Eyes wannabe was scarce, I think. No troops for the bad guys, just a few henchmen.

I never saw the cartoon, and read a couple of issues of the comic, which seemed okay. But the toys rotted on store shelves for years after the line tanked. And I'm not a overall GI JOE fan...I just like what I like.
