The story behind PDD is a wild ride, much like Bolo The Power Ninja.

What... AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!:lolol

Oh come on it can't be THAT bad could it?

<checks out the Hisstank forums>

...O-kay...moving on.

However you feel about G.I. Joe, you have to admit that any figure display is improved with a gold suitcase full of cash and a burning stack of $100 bills.

Never say you weren't warned.

Don't get me wrong, GI Joe RAH was everything to me as a child. It's just that the Pimp Daddyness of Pimp Daddy Destro is just very overwhelming and absurdly hilarious I just can't contain myself. Seriously, this figure deserves a trap song dedicated to it.:lolol:lolol:lolol

It's a thing about the Joe fandom that I find a little perplexing. There's a large push amongst a section of fans to make these figures more Real-World Military, more Gritty. (The casual insult is to compare the designs to Fortnite, as though a toy company basing some of the aesthetic of their toys for children on the most successful piece of children's entertainment available isn't the smartest thing they could as a company.)

But, like, Joe was always a mix of Military and Absurdity. Destro is a guy in a metal mask and no shirt: he's not someone you want to 100% take seriously! These are slightly goofy concepts! They always have been! It's not a flaw!

And like I said, it DESPERATELY NEEDS and deserves its own trap song. Heck I'd have it on infinite loop. :lolol

Oh, sure, no, you GET it. I'm happy to see that!

It's just a thing I've seen on other boards, where folks fold their arms at Funny Joe, and like, have they just not been seeing part of the Joe waveform or something? Sgt Slaughter and the Fridge were canonical Joe members! This franchise has a baked-in sense of humor about itself! I don't know why I'm shouting about this in the How is Everyone Today thread!

Replace "GI Joe" with "Power Rangers" and you have my same confusion at the section of fanbase that demands gritty, R-Rated Power Rangers.

You know, until this comment, I never quite understood the appeal of G.I. Joe. As far as I was concerned it was just military guys fighting watered-down versions of international terrorists. And people aiming for a more gritty push reinforced this thought in my head.

You just blew my mind. All of a sudden everything makes sense to me. I feel enlightened.

Now, where do I start in entering the franchise?

That actually exists as an adult video if I recall. It's been a few years. Thank goodness I forgot what it was called because THAT SCARRED ME.
