Its time for the next Joe!

[thenammagazine]

Wouldnt the new body Debut with destro for their late 2011/early 2012 reveal?

Kinda seems like the perfect thing to debut at SDCC. That's where we got our first glimpse at the new Pros they're using now.

I'm pretty grumpy that they answered that dumbass's question (slammed The Dead and anyone who's paying attention already knew the answer), but didn't answer my question about whether they'd make Doc before Lifeline.

Make's Joe fans look bad.

Nah, just makes that one dude look like a ____ing idiot.

Do you guys think there's a chance one of the female Joes will ever get a figure* EX: Jinx,Lady Jaye,Scarlett etc...*?Sorry if this is a dumb question but I've been wondering.

Yes...it will happen. When is unknown for sure. Sideshow is supposedly developing a better mannequin for the female figures.

I was just wondering cause Snake Eyes and Scarlett happen to be my favorite characters and after seeing the orginal show and Renegades Lady Jaye has grown on me. It is insanely easy to find a 12" of Snake Eyes or any male Joe for that matter, the females not so much...

If you can't wait, Ski might be able to hook you up with an awesome custom. His Scarlett was off the hook!

That's cool but I doubt I'd be able to afford it. It just amazes me that none of the big companies ever made a figure of Lady Jaye or Scarlett considering they're major characters in the series.

Might have to do with the fact that the majority collector base for Joes is boys and Hasbro underestimating their ability to want to purchase the gals. Growing up they were pretty hard to come by, but I had them all.

For some reason video gamers love being the chicks, but then action figures is often different.

When playing as a kid, I never really distinguished between the different sexes. Scarlett was sent on missions with Snake Eyes and held her own. Quick Kick always got captured or beaten before she did.

 

[ProgMatinee]

I honestly don't really remember owning any of the girls except Baroness. Can't remember why. I think I just had limited spending money and just always felt like there was a better figure to buy.

I think mine were bought with the incentive of getting my sister to play Joes too. However, after she busted a few thumbs and the pelvis of my Clutch figure, I threatened to draw and quarter her Cabbage Patch kids if she touched them again.

I understand the old dolls and the new figs for the casual market as most boys don't want a girl toy* Still didn't stop me from getting girl figures but nonetheless most of my collection was male characters* But aren't the 12" Joes tailored to collectors these days?I know I've heard people asking for a Jinx.*who I wouldn't mind but I'd rather have Scarlett and Lady Jaye first as they're more important characters*

If you look at the main, childish-assed market for Joes on Hissyfit.com, I think it still holds true. But for the most part, us high-end collectors wouldn't mind infusing our collection with the gals. I just hope to high hell they don't have punched hair.

"punched hair"? and damn I figured the adult collectors would be pissed that there hasn't been a figure of the main girls made, considering all the ninjas we've gotten.

Punched hair, or "doll hair" seldom looks good in 1:6. More often than not, it looks like Barbie hair.

We want them but aren't pissed because there's a new body "in development" for them. The older Buck body is outdated and wouldn't be up to par with the newer body the guys are on. Equality and all that.

And as long as the female body looks good and correct, they can take as long as they need.

 

[ProgMatinee]

I can wait for the females, but once they get that base body finished I hope they don't only do 1 or 2 like they did with the hobbit/child body. Put it to use.
