I stumbled upon a new Joe Site, I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere (other than JoeCanuck.com - but that was by me anyway!), and I'm wondering if anyone can shed some light on it for me?

It has the official G.I. Joe logo on it, and some uber-lame music - so it leads me to think it's not an official site from Hasbro.

Takes awhile to load up - even with a high speed connection.

thats the owner. im assuming its a joe fan looking to build a museum for joe stuff, an idea ive had myself but ditched since i wouldnt expect it there to be enough interest to warrant the expense.

That Music is awful...just plain awful...good thing there's nothing worthwhile on the site as I'm not sure I'd be able to stand the music. Really...who puts music on a website anymore? That's like the crap people did on Geocities or on a Myspace page...not someplace you're trying to be professional.

Doesn't Hasbro frown on the online use of their logos? That's pretty blatant.

Seems like a lot of effort for what is, in effect, nothing right now.

Interesting though.
