Loved the article.  It's a shame that corps stuff can be so brittle.  When I first started collecting joes, I remember finding a bunch of Corps 3 packs at Walmart.   Unfortunately 99% of those figures didn't survive long.  Broken thumbs, plastic discoloration for no reason, as well as early failed attempts at customizing ruined most of them.

John Eagle has a cool looking design. I especially like his suppressed uzi, a lot of Joes ended up using that gun in my collection!

Thanks, man!

And don't get me started on those god damn nunchuks. For some reason the handles have ridges around them like screws or something, so they're even more likely to break Hiro's fragile thumbs. The Hiro in this photo was pulled fresh from a card and those nunchuks snapped his thumb! Though I actually think they'd be totally safe for an actual GI Jpe figure... god damn it, Lanard!


Sorry man! That's a terrible bummer, especially when it's a brand new figure!

Cool shot! I really enjoyed that article, especially because as you pointed out that nobody in the G.I. Joe community ever talks about the Corps!. So seeing some people who's opinions count (you, Mike T., Nekoman) talk about them was cool.

Also, I remember once seeing a Hiro Yamata in a Grocery Store and thinking "I should buy this, his nunchucks are better than Storm Shadow's". I didn't!
