And another sub-line of G.I. Joe figures has a better Cobra Commander than Classified.

saw Todd on the social medias yapping about these, snoozers, these things are so boooring, little dollar store blobs, naaah.

I would be interested to know if anyone here has supported this 3 inch line?

I'm surprised that Hasbro licensed these out to McFarlane and didn't just make these themselves.

If McFarlane went to 7 inch scale like his DC and Spawn lines I'd be interested.   The basic designs appeal to me but not in 3 inch scale.

The lack of weapons for the GI Joes is a huge minus. The coolness factor would increase dramatically. It's weird to have a Snake Eyes with no swords, and a Crimson Guard with no rifle, in particular.

I would understand this, or Page Punchers in general, if there was current cartoons for these brands targeted at children. Particularly in the case of GIjoe. Between this and Super 7 we now have two GIjoes lines that take steps backwards in both quality and articulation (3 if you count those odd dollar store versions Hasbro made a while ago).  It's too bad as I like both companies. Super 7's Ultimates are interesting... Though the thought of 7 inch Mcfarlane Joes could be very cool. I'll love to see their take on the Dreadnoks.

Hasbro's current position has them acting conservative with their money.  Why invest the time, manpower, warehouse space and dough when McFarlane's in the corner just waiting to cut them a check simply to grant him permission?

Mad Bubbler I think the no guns thing is only with the DC license.   You can't do GI Joe without cool guns and accessories.

I have to say that Super 7 figures have a better finish that these... These are more dollar quality to them...

I just realized this, these come with zero accessories, which makes them all the more worse, but I guess we shoulda known since the Tiny things I've seen on the shelves have no accessories, these things stink and they look stanker IRL, I was kinda down for the whole Spawn thing, then I actually saw them and was floored with how tragic they looked, they are so lackluster, literal dollar store knock off no-goodness.

I can't even imagine anyone collects page punchers, I just don't believe it, they cost way too much for nothing, I've seen better items offered at better prices a discount stores.

this ain't it Todd.

Todd just did.
