What exactly was destroyed, and is there any cause for concern for fans of the classic style?
questions:
can hasbro explain why this happened? who made the decision to destroy these moulds?

more quesions:
why did hasbro canada not produce 25th canadian carded waves 1-4, 6 and 13?

and why did we not get a canadian card wraith variant?

also why has canada still not received dvd packs 3, 4 and 5 at retail while a silly little store called Marshalls in the US have received large quantities of them and are selling them at clearance prices for scalpers to scoop up and sell on ebay for a huge profit?

even more questions:
was moron wayans the first choice for the role of ripcord?
if so, why?
if not, who else was considered? and why did they not get the role?

Re: Submit your questions for the 4th round of Hasbro's 2009 G.I. Joe Q&A

1) Will any of the upcoming Wal-Mart exclusives for G.I. Joe, Star Wars or Marvel Universe be available at Canadian Wal-Marts? Who is the one who decides this, Wal-Mart or Hasbro?

2) Just curious as to why did two U.S. Target exclusive G.I. Joe vehicles (the Tiger Rat and the Python Patrol Conquest) show up at Zellers stores? This has happened on rare occasions in the past as well. Will Zellers continue to carry any future Target exclusives from any of your toy lines (Star Wars, G.I. Joe), as this would probably please a lot of collectors?

3) Will G.I. Joe: Resolute be released on DVD any time soon?

1) Walmart, Hasbro can offer but Walmart Canada needs to pick up the exclusive.

2) Since there is no Target in Canada they can offer those exclusives to other retailers such as Zellers.

Looking at some of the crap Wal-Mart Canada often clogs their toy sections with which have been literally sitting on the pegs untouched for 2 years (*cough* Bakugan *cough*)...maybe they should consider carrying exclusives for Star Wars or Marvel Universe that might actually sell. lol
