if anyone going to the JoeCon this year.

here are questions you can ask Hasbro

will Blowtorch be an all new mold figure with accessories and same incarnation as the 1984 figure?

will there be barbecue figure with a removable helmet?


will there be a new airtight figure in same incarnation as the 1985 figure and this time with a removable helmet?

will we get cutter figure with a retooled shipwreck figure from comic pack including life vest?

will we see major bludd figure in correct figure by using a flash torso and waist with crimson guard legs and a removable helmet?

I'm no Hasbro Rep, but I think I can answer at least a couple of these:

will there be barbecue figure with a removable helmet?

Nope. We're already gettin' a Barbecue in Wave 9. There's no reason to expect Hasbro to make a new one with removable mask. Especially when the original didn't have that option.

will we get cutter figure with a retooled shipwreck figure from comic pack including life vest?

Nope. Not unless there are plans to release a 25th modified Killer Whale to go with him.

will we see major bludd figure in correct figure by using a flash torso and waist with crimson guard legs and a removable helmet?

Nope. You got your vintage Major Bludd (warts and all) in Wave 8. I don't think we'll see another unless it's a different edition.

I'm not so sure that is the problem with the Cutter figure. We have a Wild Bill and no Dragonfly. We have an Ace and I have yet to see a Skystriker. Copperhead? Wild Weasel? Nope, both are walking too. Now same as you I do not work for the big "H" but just guessing the reason why they won't relase a Cutter right now is because of the logo on his cap. I think the Red Sox and MLB might have some say in that part. I could be wrong. And I wish they would just release him without the logo. All you would have to do is paint one on or water transer one on. Your choice. But I don't think the hold up on this figure has anything to do with the Whale.

If I were going, I'd ask what most people would ask: "When are you going to make such-and-such figures?".

Blowtorch
Scrap Iron
Airtight
Quick Kick
Alpine
Dusty
Eels
Chuckles
Dial-Tone
Iceberg
Lifeline
Low-light
Tunnel Rat.

Geez, I could go on forever. lol

I believe Hasbor has already replied to the cutter question. Their response was they had no plans on releasing him but there will be a figure that comes with a life vest(CP shipwreck) you can make a custom from.

Will they release a new Flint with the new tooling?

Will they release the Cobra Officer and Trooper without the diaper crotch?

And will we see a Python Patrol Trooper?

I'm hoping that Wave 5 revision that is supposed to come out in July(according to BBTS), that includes Flint, will be the new tooling version.

I, too, hope they make a Python Patrol Trooper. As well as a Python Copperhead, Python Crimson Guard, Python Tele-Viper, and Python Viper!

hasbro, when do you plan on enforcing the 2 figure maxium for people (except for me) who buys at dept stores, like you do on hts? with all the greedy hoarders and army builders buying all MY figures, i cannot seem to find any. thank-you, and i will take my answer sitting down. :)

Yeah I remember them saying that. Which was real odd to me because why would they have everything that they needed to make one but wouldn't? I still say it is the Sox logo. But that's just me. I could be way off base with this.

I am asking Hasbro nothing. I am sitting back and letting all the con rooks ask about a reissue of a Terrordrome, Flagg or why isn't character X a figure. Same old questions, different locations. No, the good roundtable should be the club one. I am sure that will be a heated one.

Could someone ask Hasbro if they intend to try and redo every Joe (Cobra) from years past or do they have a set number that they are focusing on? If this has already been asked if someone wants to fill me in I would appreciate it,Thanks and have a good night :)

I'll be asking hasbro at the SDCC when finding the pannel.

here is a quiestion for hasbro

since hasbro got the rights for the sunbow gijoe cartoons for DVDs.

will hasbro get the rights for the DIC gijoe episodes to have them all on dvds and also the commercials of 80s and 90s as well?

will mutt and junkyard be a correct and same incarnation as the 1984 mutt figure?

will we see budo, shockwave, hardball, muskrat, scoop, hit & run, capt. grid-iron?
