I'm a little concerned about this line. 

Someone made a good point on another board that while great, the line has no set release date, distributor or even any actual "product" for display.  As a collector aimed line that means more options for distribution depending on their game plan, but with fewer "kid friendly" distribution lines (TRU, Target, Walmart) it may mean significant retail pricing.

I loved the images I have seen, this line has great potential and some real toy powerhouses behind it.
I would love to see the actual product and accessories and packaging.

I still can't get over how much that base they're working on is like the old cardboard Cobra Missile HQ set given full life in plastic form.

I get the feeling that it was done partly to cater to old school ARAH fans, and partly due to some of the guys involved working on JOE before.  They probably wanted to see the old Missile Command done right.

Oh yeah, I get that feeling too.
I mean the similarities are so jarring... there's no way this wasn't done on purpose.

I like the art and concepts, but whether it translates well to their toys is another thing, I will defiantly be keeping and eye on this.

August is still far away... so maybe we will see something interesting (and near final) at the Canadian con...

I can't wait to see more!

It was possible for us to take a look at their figures packagings (at the UsCon) and man I want them all.. The concept for the base was there too and it's really big! The animation was not good at all and I think that their storyline is a big meh... The best part of this toyline seems to be the vehicules designs!

I am actually very excited for this line to come out.  The concept art looks amazing and the return of the o ring style just made me smile ;D
