No man, you know when a big black brotha is speaking. They have character and authority. Big white dudes just sound like an LP record slowed down to 12 rpm.

Anyone have the 25th Cobra or Joe sets? Any reviews by those of you who do?

The packaging rules but I have to say that the plastic materials they used is cheap and bendy and just sucks period. The sculpts are ok but somehow it just makes me want the original sculpts even more. You can't beat the original Joes. I give them points for effort but it's just not the same.

Thanks! I saw them at TRU today, but I couldn't bring myself to shell out $30 apiece for them.

Interesting, that's the newer stuff that I don't read, I just can't stand the Devil's Due comics.

I browsed a couple of the Devil's Due comics and just wasn't interested in any issues from their ongoing series'. However the GI Joe/Transformers crossover illustrated by Jae Lee was badass.

For anyone interested in these cool sets you can still get them from:

Goodstufftogo.net
look under the pre-order section; They even had Snakeyes with Black Timber alt. version
the box sets are $25 each and the single packs are only $5.50

GoodStuffToGo is a great business, I've bought from Gail for many years now. Their prices are always reasonable and better then Big Bad Toys; whom always over charge.


Out of the two Box sets I think The COBRA set is the best.

Click on an episode to watch animated 80's action cheese at its finest.

And according to reports on the yojoe.com messageboards Hasbro will be releasing nine of the ten figures in the boxed sets (Baroness hasn't been confirmed) as single carded figures as well. That's good news for me since I'd prefer to display the card art with the figures individually.

Get ready to get your childhood raped again...Stephen Sommers is rumored to be directing the live action G.I. Joe movie

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

That's kewl, cause I want the individual carded figures as well.

So who is Scarlet going to be shacking up with in the movie? Snakes or Duke? I say Duke. Screw all that intertwined ninja crap. Snake Eyes is a Commando.

Scarlet always had a thing for Snake Eyes.

He's based off a proposed figure that was scheduled for release but never was.

He was nicknamed "pimp daddy Destro" by the fans.
