Exclamation 25th Joe pics from ToyFair!!!

Check out Justin's great shots.

Take another look at 'em. Uhmmmmm, I'll keep my mouth shut since all I saw so far was Gung Ho w/ ankles.

Good GAWD the Baroness has looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong legs.

I do think Scarlett looks really good...

And Cobra Commander looks constipated.

Destro's peanut head...guh... And the Commander looks like his helmet's more than a little snug, too

It's weird; for the most part I like them and as 3.75" action figures they look like they might be really good, but as GI Joes it feels like a little too much of a departure. I'm very interested to see them alongside old-sculpt Joes. And, um, old-new-sculpt Joes...

Man. I'm lost for words. I had my doubts before, but these pics have confirmed my worst fears. This 25th stuff looks C-R-A-P. Very, very disappointing. R.I.P. 3 3/4" Joe.

I asked about sculpting eras over on the JBL and all EEJ could give me was...

Classic sculpt.

Nu Skulpt.

Anniversary Design Sculpt (AD). But yeah, I have no idea what to call the 2002-2005 figures.

I've got to admit that at the VERY FIRST SECOND I saw them, I thought 'ouch', then I looked at the posts on JBL and they 'sort of' grew on me. Now with these pics I am just really, really disappointed..........
I'll still pick them up, if not to just 'have them'-using them is going to be a stretch. Except for the Cobra Soldier. His sculpt I can work with, since I never 'built up' any kind of an 'army' with them previously.
As for the rest of 'em......................................let's just say that I have to place an order for O-Rings, screws & bust out my nail polish to 're-apply' Scarlett's hair when it fades again. As a matter of fact, my current line is making appointments for 'MAKEUP'!!!!!!!!! (please tell me SOMEBODY get's that last part?!?!?)

yeah, you know thats bad to say, but honestly i think they would have been better with less articulation (im just spelling the way you did, dont really know myself,lol). just add more detail. still, i think we all want them.

They look different than the original photos. Another example of poor execution on Hasbro's part. Yuck
