A couple months ago, Axel Watteeuw of Brainfreeze.be (a site in Belgium) conducted a series of interviews and pushed out a few articles in regards our great hobby as part of a GI JOE special in celebration of Retaliation's release in theaters. It isn't very often that someone on the outskirts of our hobby takes the time to put it under a microscope for collectors and non-collectors alike to have a gander at it. Axel is currently planning to do a follow up to expand on some of the facets that weren't necessarily highlighted or to delve deeper into that which was covered.
