With the string of marketing screw-ups with G.I.Joe coupled now with the totally botched release of G.I.Joe 2 Retaliation, I really see only one person at fault.

Hasbro CEO Brian Goldner.

Goldner has sufficiently been in charge of all things related to the issues which have deteriorated including the now botched release date.

Internal rumors have it that the new movie has very little substance in which audiences are not favorable of. The previous example being Battleship. Full of special effects but little in the terms of story.

Goldner makes the hair brained idea to scrap the Retaliation release date to go and refilm key scenes in gimmick 3D and retroactively processes other 2D scenes to appear like 3D.

This delay with cause untold millions in interest payments alone due to the delay and punish Hasbro stock consequently.

Clearly these latest actions by Goldner makes Retaliation stink of 'bad movie' because and as a consequence of his mismanagement, the film is automatically suspect; jeopardizing earnings whenever the film is revealed to the dollar conscious public.

Now is the time for Brian Goldner to step down. Allow a more conscious CEO to emerge and marshal the Hasbro company so better product can be made and better product can be marketed properly and efficiently. Unlike the current state of affairs.

Actions taken by Goldner can bankrupt a corporation making it susceptible to companies like Disney. Like Marvel Entertainment, Hasbro could easily be purchased by media giant Disney where G.I.Joe would forever be a Disney brand like Micky Mouse.

Lets hope Hasbro can recover from this total disaster by eliminating Brian Goldner's ill-suited position.

How many figures do you own?

Fixed.

I'd say collectors have a vested interest in Hasbro as a company.

Is the OP a Hasbro shareholder? To be able to do that, you've got to be able to convince the institutional shareholders who own Hasbro. Not sure Retailiation is enough reason to convince them or me.

Dude, know what you are talking about next time.

Hasbro HAD NO IMPACT ON THE REASONS TO DELAY RETALIATION. If anything, the delay does more damage to Hasbro than anything else.

The decision was Paramount's not Hasbro.

And for all the fan bitching, Hasbro has grown and diversified as a company in the years since Goldner took over. Hasbro's in a better position now than they were before Transformers.

I'd venture to guess that collectors probably account for 1/10th of 1%* of Hasbro's overall revenue and that our opinions aren't worth a fart in a high wind.
