Super7 ReAction Figures - GI Joe - Series 1

OK - there's been a lot of debate whether these are cool or an abomination. After all, when GI Joe - A Real American Hero debuted in 1982, it changed the standards with more articulation compared to Kenner's Star Wars blockbuster line.

Super7 brought the 5POA retro figures back in a fun way back in 2013 with their Alien line. This GI Joe line, with only 5 Points of Articulation is more of a homage to the GI Joe cartoon we all watched on television after school. Personally, I love em. The card art is a lot of fun too. And we finally get generic green shirt Joes that we saw in the cartoon.

I purchased most of these at 2nd and Charles after Toybox gave me the heads up. Kwinn and Baroness I got off Ebay. The Target special Snake Eyes (Silent Interlude) and Cobra Commander (light blue with chrome facemask) arrived via online order.

    The price point on these minimally articulated figures is ridiculous.

      The price point on every toy these days is ridiculous. Except Final Faction. It's just going to get worse with the oil battles going on over Ukraine/Russia. Toys are a smaller problem than what's going on there.
