I know Hasbro never said that. I was just bristling at the suggestion that we should buy ROC just because any future continuation of other lines like the Modern line is tied to the success of ROC. I know Hasbro didn't make this suggestion, some collectors did, and I probably should have directed my annoyance to them specifically instead of Hasbro.
That being said, I'm sure the 25th/modern line will be around for a long time. So long as Hasbro is around, there will be a 30th anniversary, a 40th anniversary, a 50th anniversary... whatever they can make money on I'm sure.
For those who think it is the be-all, end-all, don't be silly. If ROC falls flat, which it probably won't, it won't be the end of other Joe lines.
