That's great to hear, Blowtorch! I could see how JoeDios could be of interest to Hasbro, since we do still "play" with the toys as well as collect them. A wall of MOC figures is cool, but you also can't deny the love of the Joe characters from someone who'll lie in the dirt with a camera after posing a figure just right so we can all look at the pic and say "Now THAT is Tunnel Rat!"

Another point that I made with him that I think really impressed him was that the members here are from all over the world. South America, Austrila, England and the list goes on. So I'm still going to keep trying to push on to get us the recongition this site deserves.

That looks a lot like Micro-Man style construction. Pretty cool.

Also, based on that side-by-side comparison, if we assume that Scarlett is a little shorter than the others in the line, it appears these figures will indeed be larger than ARAH and later new-sculpt characters. I'm guessing maybe they'll be about the size of the JvC and SpyTroops figs. Not perfect, but still manageable.

Maybe I'm wrong but as said before Hasbro is out of new ideas. This 25th anniversary line is using the same idea of creating improved versions for old characters in classic looks. Anyway I want it!

I'm sure many of us have already seen it, but our old friends General Hawk has posted a joint review (with Fred from JBL) of this figure at General's Joes.

It seems to have some problems sitting, but overall, I still think it's pretty phenomenal. I love how her hands are designed to hold her crossbow with a proper two-handed grip.

Judging from these photos, I'll be glad to display the 25th Joes alongside my Marvel Legends, Transformers, etc.-- Something I don't do with my current Joes. Looking at this Scarlett next to her comic pack incarnation makes me realize just how much was wrong with that figure that I'd never noticed till now!

I've read the review.. and I think it does highlight all the pro's and con's to owning this figure. The sit down thing is a problem.. I am not too keen on it.. but I still say I want to get the figure first.. before making a final judgement.
