Nice that the PuleCon exclusive set was available for pre-order even though it was a pass for me. Wish they would have had Snowjob, Tripwire, Chuckles and the Valkyries.
The Joe team really knocked it out of the park at PulseCon. So many name drops and renders. Excited for all of them except for maybe the generic 60th anniversary figures. The price tags will determine whether I purchase those. They'll likely be Pulse exclusives as well.(Though my HA Roadblock would love that Ma Deuce) Nice they'll be releasing a retro Eel and Snow Serpent.(It'd be nice if the one I ordered from Gamestop would arrive someday)
My God were the Transformers(Not one G1 reveal  ) and Star Wars panels super lame in comparison. |
While I agree that the Joe team was the highlight of the day, personally, I do think they got the short end of the stick.
They were so rushed due to the nature of timing for the day that it really wasn't as good a panel as it could have been. You would think that your currently most popular brand (my opinion based on what I see on the boards) would be given time to work their magic.
Also I am a bit surprised at not seeing either the VAMP or the MMS in hand. I really thought one, if not both of them, would be shown off. However that is probably just me being greedy. I mean.......

Holy crap is he kitted out! I guess next year I'll have to explain to my wife why she keeps hearing me around the house going "BANG. BANG. BANG. BANG." Ah good old Gary Chalk, he made 90s cartoons so great.
Lots of great reveals. Loved to hear the Ferret getting a name only reveal as well. It looks to be another stellar year for Joe coming up.
