What ever happened to Angry Joe Day?



Well, March 1st has come and gone, and no Angry Joe Day this year. It's a little bit of a bummer that there's no photo contest this year, but frankly, I'm just not that angry about Joe at the moment. First, we have some great Adventure Team figures from the GI Joe Collector's club, last year's member "Foreign Adventurer," and this year's new arctic figure. Then there are the exclusive KFG figures from Hot Topic and Urban Outfitters. The new 9" Adventure Team figures from Hasbro look disappointing, but perhaps there will be something to salvage from the line. So that situation isn't wonderful, but it's a lot less dark than two years ago when I started this blog.

I'm not saying Angry Joe Day is gone. It could come back if the situation goes the wrong way. But I really don't feel like doing a "Grumpy Joe Day" just yet, so I'm taking a "wait and see" attitude...
