When they limit your number of questions, it's good to "sneak" a multi-part (or at least multi-faceted) question in there.

They might give us an answer. If we respond to that channel, and they still ignore our wishes, well, not much we can do then. But if this gives us a proper pipeline to marketing, and if marketing listens to collectors, and if research & development listens to marketing, then there is an outside chance we will see something vaguely resembling what we are looking for. But that is a lot of "if's". And the more "messengers" between collectors and R & D, the more opportunities to confuse the message.

On a tangent, I'm honestly hopeful on the articulation. If they are articulated like the 5th Fleet Security Clone trooper or the 442nd Siege Battalion (except with added articulation at the hips) we could very well be in business. I was not as optimistic prior to picking up a clone trooper as an impulse while looking at empty Joe peg hooks. You can pose those figs out very well. And they are the "right" size for our Joe-worlds.

I guess I'm also interested in grades of plastic to determine if these will hold up over time or not. If you have great figures, but their joints end up limp after a month, that's not good.

Time will tell.

Okay, no one has asked the really important question yet...

Will there be any mainstream Joe releases which are of the older sculpt styles with o-rings?

1) Are we likely to see any new characters/costumes (based on the comics, especially) or just original designs re-sculpted?

2) Will calssic o-ring figures ever be released again (other than by the Club)?


-- both been posted here already, I'm just throwing my support behind them!
