Any chance of Hasbro releasing a "Fix it" set of fixes for their screwups?
20 sets of fixed Duke arms from the elbows-down (wait, will that cover it?), a painted, newly-sculpted Cutter head, a new Grunt head, full-sized Zartan swamp skier, Leatherneck, new Gung-Ho head and Bazooka head with the right mustaches, a new Duke head, and some
Needless Repaint Magic-Away™
to get rid of all the extra Cobra Commanders, Dukes, Storm Shadows and Snake Eyes everyone has?
Okay, that was riddled with sarcasm, but seriously, a few "exclusive" fixes could easily be sold in poly-bags at conventions, and appease a good deal of folks. Likewise, it would probably infuriate a thousand other Joe fans, but it'd make me happy, which at the end of the Joe Day, is all I give a damn about anyways.
Some Hasbro exclusive "Customizer" packs at a Convention of some sorts would be an awesome set, but I don't know the logistics of it, and the cost of the production, but to ME it seems like a nifty idea, whether it's a stupid proposal or not.*
*If someone starts a "you're retarded, that would never happen because you don't understand the logistics of toy production, but since I'm a bigger nerd than you and a self-proclaimed genius, then I'll rant back and forth for pages about production costs and supply and demand and sine curves and import-export physics and whatever" rebuttal, I'll go ahead and offer a digital punch to the face right now.
