Basically, Hasbro is doing what they did with the Star Wars comic-packs (i.e. Wave 1 was all repaints while Wave 2 had more new characters)?
Probably, I've said on other boards that Star Wars is probably the best "model" to compare the new Joe line to. Star Wars sets usually have one "tired character" packaged with a character most want. Oddly, the slowest selling comic pack I've seen for Star Wars was the highly fan desired set with Quinlan Vos. It had two EU characters and remains quite plentiful.
For fun, here are my pics for the next wave:
Issue 11 with Gung Ho and Sgt. Zap (using Snake Eyes as a base)
Issue 14 with Destro and Scarface
Issue 37 with Flint and Lady Jaye (yes, I know the CG Twins appear, but Flint and LJ can be done with a minimum of new tooling and are far more higher tier characters in Hasbro's eyes. Plus we'd get a Flint with gloves and Lady Jaye without hat out of this and see my Star Wars example above about just getting the TWins)
