someone ban SR....turns out hes a crazy Hasbro loving HT commie spy
You caught me...
I was actually really impressed with the villain's plan in ROC... Best Cobra plot I've ever heard, and it was very Cobra in the way they did it. Just everything around that sucked. I can't say I exactly loathed the first movie as I partially enjoyed it, but it was not a good vision of Joe, and it was far as hell from anything resembling a good film.
Gah, I would leave moderation up to the moderators, you flamer! Blood, I'd give him an infraction for this sorta language!

Tankers want SE to be in the White House...and King of the World.
I watched ROC again a couple days ago. Once again I couldn't bring myself to hate it, but at the same time I realized that there was a lot of stuff I forgot about because it wasn't anything memorable. I guess the plot to that movie was Zartan becoming president or something (I think). I'm left to wonder why Destro needed NATO to fund the creation of the Nano-bot warheads though, that was almost as dumb as the ice that sank at the end because I always thought Executive Enterprises headed by the Crimson Twin was the financial backing behind Cobra.
Destro is and always was a separate entity from Cobra. He is the "weapons supplier" for Cobra. They are in business together. I'm not saying he wouldn't fight with Cobra but he is not owned by them. See the Marvel comic and forget the cartoon. (BTW I'm not saying Hama's work is canon) Plenty of stupid stuff in the rag too, but they did a lot better than Sunbow.
I've been wondering, if they re-release a repaint of the 30th Cobra trooper, do you think They'll give them new web gear? If so which? I've been wondering if the 25th Ann. Bazooka Troopers web gear would fit on them. Arguably one of the best things they could do is give him the Resolute Cobra Troopers styling jacket/Armour/vest thing.
The Bazooka Trooper vest rides a little high up on the body and his chin touches the pouches.
Not sure on the Resolute Trooper vest, might be a bit loose.
I've given my 30th Troopers the 25th Jet pack trooper webgear. Since that is way better than the trooper harnesses.
is that the same web-gear that's on the Scared cobra officer from the two pack and the Cobra Pilot from the Fang/C.L.A.w vehicle pack?

Yeah, the Officer Webbing, just in different colours. I prefer my grunts to have extra pouches, and the trooper webbing is rather lacking.
The one on the Right is using Resolute Flints ( I gave it back to him)
Again, the Cobra symbol on the register strikes. I was just talking with some random person about the trailer on the new movie. I need to put batteries in that sound box.
Apparently they have a higher price tag too.Kokomo Toys said:
Those $9.99 RoC figures sure flew off the shelves at Walmart last time.
Great, more stuff to clog up pegs. I really thing Joe suffered this season due to overruns of Green Lantern (yes, STILL around), Thor, Captain A, PoTC (STILL) and even Iron Man 2 and other crap that was clogging up my local Wallys and Targets.
Everyone over-produces on movie lines. Some just do even worse than we think.
GL, I'm looking at you.
I think there are a few issues at hand. No one producing 4" figures that are at big box stores and are getting movie licenses are any good at it, other than Hasbro. Mattel, Jakks etc, all suck.
Hasbro's problem is case packs that consist of 10 Thor/Iron Man/Indiana Jones/Spiderman/Wolverine figures an 2 of the other characters, and it NEVER gets rectified in revision cases.
And let's be honest, sometimes the line just sucks. Were any of the Thor movie designs really that great? Any of them make you want 14 Thor variants?
Joe 2 is gonna have clunkers (I'm calling SS and CC as big time warmers, as well as the vehicles), but I'm betting we get lots of useable stuff.

I'd be happy if new action figures retailed for $10 here. They're usually AUD$18. No way am I spending that much on a single figure.
Whoa! The AUD is pretty much on parity with the USD.
Is tax already included in that price? Here tax is added onto during the purchase.
hhmmm, still, here in America I'm just getting use to buying figures at seven dollars, another dramatic price increase would make me hold off on buying most of the figures. They'll have to be fucking perfect at that price, and I'd probably only get Jinx and Colt (if he looks like Bruce of course) and maybe Cross Country, but only if he has that retarded Civil war cap and confederate belt. I always wanted to throw a dumb-ass into a wood chipper and post it on You-Tube.
At any rate, I doubt they'll retail at ten dollars in the U.S. They'll probably start at eight dollars or something for a while and then drop down a little as the year goes on.

I bet that is why they are more because of the likenesses.
The Rock Roadblock figure is most likely going to be made since he is a main character.
