The G.I. Joe brand has been a pioneer of boys action figures since the '60s. From the innovation of the Kung-Fu Grip in the '70s, the o-ring torsos of the '80s, to the inset joints of the 25th Anniversary-style bodies, G.I. Joe is synonymous with articulation and poseability. Unfortunately, the consistently uniform articulation we've come to expect from each G.I. Joe figure has--for the first time--been sacrificed in the G.I. Joe: Retaliation movie line. The changes have left many of us confused, not to mention disappointed. To provide you with a comprehensive look illustrating the differences between each figure, we've created an articulation guide for the first wave of basic figures in the Retaliation line. The guide offers a hi-resolution snapshot of each figure, its accessories (sans spring-loaded accessories) and its individual points of articulation.
