I think the big wigs of the other sites have seen pics of the upcoming 25th Anniversary and I think it's pretty safe to say that it's gonna be pretty different. Rumor has it that it's nu skulpts w/ more articulation (than usual; most likely wrists, ankels, swivel thighs, whatever). Personally, if they keep the sculpting tight (hard edges, not soft edges), the paint apps make sense and the overall design isn't overly outlandish, it should be good. But hey, what do I know? It could be comic pack skulpts w/ added articulation.

We'll even be lucky if we get a glimpse of it at Toyfair in a month. Hasbro has acquired the Marvel stuff so they'll be pushing the movie toys (Ghost Rider, Spidey 3 and one other) as well as the TF movie. Fortunately, the JoeCon will be all about Joe so if we can wait 7 months, we'll know what's instore for the fans.

You made some good points there Buckwheat. The good new sculpts do look awesome in photos. The extra sculpting detail really looks great, especially in tight close ups. You also mentioned not being worried about the value of figures. I couldn't agree more. The first thing I do with any new figure I get is customise it, which instantly reduces it's resale value. But seeing as I will never sell them anyway, who cares? I've never seen the point of buying a figure (or vehicle) and keeping it MIP. What use is that?
