Has anyone seen it? Is it any good? They have plenty of 'em at Toys "R" Us Yonge/Eg but I'm not sure if I'm going to bother.

Bought it at Costco, 12.89. I would say worth it. Much better than SpyTroops. Considering what it is, I'd say pretty well done.

Major downside comments are: I hate how weasely they've made Cobra Commander. Yeah, he's a fanatic, but couldn't they make him a little more in control? Well, we see that all is not well in Cobradom, though. Dr Mindbender is a sycophant. Destro looks silly. The Joes seem a little too much like teenagers a lot (most) of the time.

Up side: Loved Overkill's "issues." Venomous Maximus was great! Ninja fight scenes were superbly done, Slash and Dice were hilarious, really liked Tunnel Rat's character as the New Yorker, and the overall quality of the film and effects was outstanding.

It's ultimately for kids so... meh. But I found it quite watchable. Bottom line: I never said "this is awful" and wanted to turn it off, as I did with Spytroops. I say - Get It, if just to support the line.

SV out.
