Choose your era!
I was doing a shoot for the dio tonite and I was using o-rings from the... Uh, VvV era. It got me thinking, "Gee whiz, I'd love those Steel Brigade guys in 25A form (I'm using the Plauge vs SB o-ring figures)."
It's no secret that the original flavored stuff is awesome in its own regard. The Bastard Era or Theme Years provided just as many gnarly figures as well as CRAPPY ones. Then you get to the 25A era (give or take Sigma6 and Resolute in the way) which is BEST shown as the single cards having SILVER backs. After that was over, fans got what is best known as MODERN AGE which had the "From the... Comics/International/Cartoon logo" on it. And of course, we got ROC now. And it'll continue till on till who knows when! So what do you prefer overall? Does the 25A destroy what Hasbro did back when? Does the ROC continue on with the Joe line where the 25A went for a classic, yet updated look? Maybe you prefer Resolute over EVERYTHING else. Maybe you said, "forget it all" and would prefer the old ARAH sculpts, forget this wrist articulation and change in sculpting ways! Vote down there. Errrr, somewhere down there. Under where?

I was torn between the 25th and resolute here.
I figure the 25th has given me more, based upon the ARAH.

THOUGH I'M IN LOVE WITH THE NEW LOOK AND RE-INVENTION OF THE ROC LINE AND HAVE SOME WHAT WARMED TO THE 25A BECAUSE OF IT. IF I HAD TO CHOOSE ONLY 1 AS MY FAVORITE IT WOULD HAVE TO BE ARAH. HOW COULD WE FORGET THE O'RING THAT GOT US ALL STARTED ON THIS LOVE HATE RIDE WITH HASBRO. THE CAMPY (TO US NOW) CARTOON THE CHEESY (COBRA-LA) MOVIE AND FAR OUT COLORS (ALLEY-VIPER) OF THE 90's THE ARAH LINE HAS GOT TO BE MAY ALL TIME FAV.!!!!

Tough choice, I picked ARAH.
25th started out with too many bad figures and MA was mostly redecos. ROC is okay, but gets a little too silly for what it is sometimes, not big on nanomites. Resolute was good, but too short lived. Then there's the new sculpt era, which was really hit or miss. The originals started it all, they are the best. |
