Re: Post your questions for the Hasbro GI Joe Q&A

what is going on with distribution to Walmart Canada and Toys R Us Canada? Why is there no stock/inventory at so many stores? Are they going to carry the Pursuit of Cobra Line or not?

Re: Post your questions for the Hasbro GI Joe Q&A

I love this new cartoon, and hope it continues for a long time.
Will you be releasing all of the main characters from the toon
as action figures, and will you also be making some of the
cool vehicles from the show as toys as well???

Thanks
Dale

Just to let you know, TRU is now carrying PoC, I've seen wave3 at my TRU and a friend saw it at his TRU. TRU was boycotting PoC I suspect, to punish Hasbro for the crappy RoC line which clearly sold poorly beyond words for TRU. The story is that they wouldn't carry PoC until RoC had completely (or mostly) cleared off the pegs which at my TRU they finally have....

Q. The new all-white StormShadow shown off at ToyFair looks stunning. I think this is easily the best SS that Hasbro has ever done and I love the Frank Miller-esque ninja hood... please tell me that you are planning on doing an army builder pack of Red Ninjas based on this new sculpt! I loved the original Red Ninjas, but they didn't match the red ninjas from the Joe comic due to their short sleeves. This new sculpt would be a perfect rendition of the Marvel red ninjas and I'm sure would sell as quickly as your first release. I'm down for 20 of these guys if you say yes

Same reason as the other toylines. Most the time I think its the language laws coming into play.

Hasbro has stated in the past that it is impossible for them to release every wave of a Star Wars line in Canada due to packaging issues.

2011 Questions!

Lately the G.I. Joe toys have been focusing on the Pursuit of Cobra (which is great!). As 2011 continues, will we see more Joe product coming to the shelves (eg. Transformers has various products and toylines)?

Re: Post your questions for the Hasbro GI Joe Q&A

The 25th anniversary release seemed to bring back nearly all of the "classic" Joes (from '82 to '88). Are there any plans to finish off the last few characters from the old line / TV show that never quite made it?
I'd really love to see a standard (not ROC / POC) version of the old Airtight, Cover Girl, Dial Tone, Lifeline, Jinx, Keel Haul, Sci-Fi, etc. One last 7 pack set of Joe / Cobra figures (similar to the Attack on / Defense of Cobra Island sets) would probably get those stragglers.
Any thoughts of releasing these last few characters to finish off some classic collections?
