Recent Answers from Hasbro on 3rd Q&A for G.I. Joe
here's questions and answers from Hasbro on the most recent Q&A
Many fans are sad about the 25th Anniversary line being put on hiatus while the Rise of Cobra Movie merchandise hits retail. Is there any chance of the line coming back in 2010 with perhaps fan favorites such as Low-Light, Lifeline and maybe Zandar and Zarana? And are we going to see more Resolute product and a return of the Resolute Cartoon Series?
There are currently no plans to bring back the 25th anniversary product,
but the team is looking at how to best satisfy the collector community
within the current product line.
What are the chances of perhaps releasing the old small playsets with some army building figures? This is a great way of giving both kids and fans some fairly cheap playsets along with a figure. Ideas that come to mind....The Bio-Vac set, Cobra Bunker, Rifle Range, Checkpoint Alpha etc.
Something along these lines is coming and will be revealed at ComicCon.
Since the Rise of Cobra merchandise is going to give us an awesome PITT playset I was wondering.....What are the chances of perhaps re-releasing the original G.I. Joe headquarters and perhaps the Cobra Terror Dome as perhaps either store exclusives or even a HasbroToyShop.com exclusive? Also one of the most iconic vehicles in the G.I. Joe line was the F-14A Skystriker, is there any chance of Hasbro perhaps re-releasing this awesome toy?
The Skystriker tooling is no longer available for use. The team has
investigated re-releasing the Terror Dome but due to the high costs of
the set, it is unlikely.
