Yeah, I haven't read the comics in a while. Lost interest since the Marvel days. Once it did the battle in Behhzerheen or whatever that desert country was that was paralelling Desert Storm, I lost interest. And not a Minute too soon. I got to miss the Transformers crossover and the ninja Force/everyone brainwashed by the brain scanner era! I got back into it a little with Devils Due, but soon lost interest. The movie I feel will be to "Matrix-y" and unrealistic. (read TOO futuristic).

One thing I do Love is the new Resolute series. That seemed pretty tight. what are your thoughts Craig?

Who knows... two years from now the sets may be back to ARAH styles if the fan reaction to 25th Anniversary Con exclusives turn out to be overwhelmingly negative (which it appears to be thus far).



I Doubt that. When the 25th hit, about 50% of the fan base hated them, and hasbro did what it always does.....keeps shoveling it until we accept it or risk losing the line. I hope you are right, however and they realize we stay with the GIJCC because we want vintage style figures.

But hey, when all this started, I was a 25th hater....now I'm more of a selective collector.
