I love the line. I really think they have done an outstanding job in the little time they had. But I’m worried.....very worried, about the future.
Like many have said I’m worried about the movie and what it may do to our line. Like someone said, if the movie is a hit they might do away with the 25th line and focus on the movie line. Or the movie will flop and all the Joe stuff will end.
Another big worry is the new vehicles coming out for the movie. It seems like the majority (myself included) of the fan base wants nothing to do with the movie toys unless older cooler vehicles are released in it. The best GI Joe toys came out between 1982 and 1985-86. Nothing after could compare too those years….. until now. And how did they finally make something as good and as popular as the 82 to 86 line? By making the 82 to 86 line!....again. And still I think Hasbro won't get it. They need to stop designing the vehicles themselves and start looking back to real military vehicles for there designs. Like they did for the years 1982 to 1986. Otherwise, we get things like the "Pogo Ballistic Battle ball", "Road Toad" or "Buzz Boar". So please Hasbro, you know what works and what doesn’t. As the saying goes don’t fix/change it if it’s not broken. And that’s what you did in 1987 and I hope you don’t make the same mistake twice. And looking at that snowmobile vehicle thing from the upcoming movie line your leading me to think you are heading down the same old path to poor sales and angry fans. Prove me wrong Hasbro, please prove me wrong. You have done so good till now, don’t blow it.
