I fully agree with this statement.
Sideshow... disenfranchising collectors since 2001. 
At this pace, 5 figures max. They really need to get off their damn duff.

only cause they don't see the value of this line. Hell every fig will be over a ^^^^ing $100 anyway!!
Plus you can't really make any Variants out of this line (Symbiot Spiderman?!? WTF!!!) Of course I wouldn't put it past them to make Tiger force and Viper Comand before we see a Zartan.

Man they have been working hard making bad ass dinosaurs that I would have bought if I was 5. Seriously they have all these lines but they decide to make Dino's and then they get some really dumb licenses like The Fly, Jurassic Park, Species, pretty much franchises that don't really have much if any of a following and then they totally neglect actual cult and fan followings like G.I. Joe, Indy, and I would even welcome some more Freddy and Jason stuff at this point. The only property that is even getting any decent treatment which I am greatful for is Star Wars yet they still haven't even touched on some big names like Yoda, Chewy, R2, 3PO, Emperor, or anything from the Cantina in 12 inch or Premium Format scale in the past 3-4 years they've had this license.

I'm really dissapointed by the B&W friday lot this year. Sure the Harrbinger is cool and I preordered that one, but so many missed opportunities Joe-wise!

Sure, people will pay $100 for figures so they are going to sell them for $100. You don't think they notice what's going on in the secondary market? Do you think preorders are slowing down? People will buy it. $100 for Toht? Come on. A kit bashed EP2 Kenobi, a handful of troopers, stupid variants - fans are eating it up while the Show laughs itself to the bank.only cause they don't see the value of this line.

SS fanboys... buying up anything and everything since day oneSideshow... disenfranchising collectors since 2001.
People moaned and groaned about the death of the LOTR PF line and its still chugging along. Mere weeks ago people were crying that Indy is dead. All it takes is one or two more announcements before Snake Eyes ships and people will be dancing in the streets again.

If that's what's on your mind, why bother sharing? No one wants to hear your insults, even if you're "on topic".

I completely agree with you. Other than Starwars and repaints, Sideshow tends to release a new item roughly once a quarter to twice a year and GI Joe is seeming to follow that trend. As I said earlier, my best guess is one coming by the end of the year.
My only thing is that Sideshow seems to be taking on more and more licenses and then letting them fade away; which is silly and disappointing to fans. They are also cranking up the edition sizes on certain lines (this apparently is a good thing on the GI Joe line because the EX and Reg for CC and SE both sold out) which can leave them with a ton of overstock. I really think SS should continue to pick 3-4 major lines for the 1/6th scale and just focus on producing top quality figures. This would also allow them to give more "teasers" about upcoming products for THOSE lines.

I thought he raised some good points. But I guess one dude's points are another dude's insults.
If they are true.
Of course you all know that you are allowed to hang out in debate mode before going off to the flame on stage... right? Why not address his points?

What's there to debate? And calling someone a F'ing baby or lame ass isn't really the way you handle yourself in a debate. All it shows is the intelligence of the person dishing out the names and not really providing any substance. The only thing he brought up is that Sideshow is raping Star Wars fans and SS loyalist and it had nothing to do with what we are even talking about.
