GI Joe 25A Comic Packs Wave 5
My enthusiasm for the 25th Anniversary GI Joe line sort of waxes and wanes depending on what is released, and what kind of mood I’m in at the time. The line seems to rely heavily on nostalgia, and the rampant repaints and releases is killing that. Hasbro recently revealed the latest (fifth) series of comic 2-packs, and like the rest of the line, some excite me and others don’t. In this assortment we’ll get Falcon and Nemesis Enforcer (exciting!) along with Destro and Iron Grenadier (eh…) and Cobra Commander and Tripwire (meh…). I wish Hasbro would knock it off with the releases in the 2-packs and just give us two unique figures per set. They’re trying to force collectors to drop ten bucks on one unique fig. Dirty dirty Hasbro! Anyways, you can see pics at YoJoe.com.

I concur! Getting single figures for $6 or a 2Pack with all new figures for $10 is smokin’. Being sold a $10 2Pack with a new figure and a rehash is as lame as it gets. It preys on those who are nutso with the “gotta get ‘em all” disease. Which probably inflicts most of the readership at a site like this
The upcoming vehicles have me excited too because I feel that’s alot of bang for the buck!!
