 Cheap Construction and Hundreds of Stickers...UGH August 9, 2009

There is a very good chance that if you are looking to purchase this for your kid, you were into GI Joe back in the 80s. Before you read on, try to remember how ruggedly built those old toys were. You could smash 'em, throw 'em into the grass and dirt, and they'd be ready the next day...month...my kid is now playing with those toys 25 years later.
This toy is built of cheap, thin plastic. I guarantee if your kid drops it ONCE from chest height, it's done. The thirty-five year old nerd in one of these reviews is not who these toys are meant for. Most of the pieces do not LOCK into place and need to constantly be put back into position. Have you ever heard of toy railings that "rest" in position?! They dont snap or lock into place! I didn't even bother w/ super-glue and threw away the railings. The hinges that many of the doors/sections rely on constantly need to be popped back into place, too. There is absolutely nothing solid on this. Cheap, cheap, cheap.
If my son's eyes didn't bug out when he saw this thing, I would have returned it. Save your money...and the sanity you'll lose trying to apply page after page after page of stickers 1/4 the size of your pinky fingernail.
 FUN AND AMAZING! July 24, 2009

First of all I'd like to say, unlike the previous review I did not buy this for children. I am a 35 year old adult collector of toys. I grew up with GI Joe. This toy is definitely not for 5 year old toddlers. As a kid I wanted the USS Flag Ship so much I could taste the weird plastic smell.
THIS.. is like my childhood dream come true! The instructions are a bit vague, but with a little patience and some walking away, for breaks, this thing works perfectly and is cool as hell! Infinite possibilities for play and display. The price is well worth it.
The picture on the back of the box does NO JUSTICE! There are so many hidden features, fun things to TOY with.. and once you get it together it EASILY converts from vehicle to play setting. I've messed around with this thing for 3 hours and haven't even started with the decals! The stickers are half the fun, and this thing has A LOT!!!!!
THANK YOU HASBRO for finally making something more than worth the price.. FUN as well, but can you cut back on the darn twisty ties!?
Last but not least. This thing is HUGE! Back in the day the USS went for [..]. Today the PIT is[..]. If this movie franchise collects on its' trilogy promise, will the Flag sail again? If so we can expect a price tag for about [..] ... as long as it gives us ALL the AMENITIES like the PIT... I'LL BUY!
 The Pit - meets expectations, lots of fun, but overpriced July 15, 2009

The Pit Headquarters:
Positives - Huge playset, lots of stuff, infinite play possibilities. My 2 five year olds love it, it occupies them for hours at a time. We keep it opened up and not in vehicle mode most of the time. Seems pretty durable, has held up to intense play for long stretches without any breaks.
Negatives - Lots of small parts, which I pretty much expected. No suprises. 5 sheets of stickers - would take HOURS to apply. I saw on another message board it took a guy 5 hours to put them all on. I didn't put on every last sticker, many are tiny and inconsequential. Seems they could have done a better job with this.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
My main issue is the price - [...] bones for this set is too high. I think it would be well worth the money for $50-60 but at [...] + it is definitely overpriced. Really could say this for all the new GI joe toys.
If you are willing to wait until next winter after xmas when this will probably be fairly significantly discounted, more power to you and you'll be getting a great deal on an overall great toy. However if you're like me and my kids and pumped up for the movie, you'll pay too much for this - I don't regret buying it and it is a great playset, you won't be disappointed with it but again $100+ is too much.
