Most years Hasbro has an official presence at Joecon. That wasn't the case at Joecon 2014. Will Hasbro make a return to Joecon 2015?

No, Hasbro will be M.I.A. Shades of the 95 96 era when Joe was on Hiatis

Toy Fair in February might be a good indication one way or the other depending on what is planned for the year. Hope so. Always cool to talk to the reps.

Hasbro is always a welcome treat at the con. That said. I did not miss them last year at all. There is plenty to do and see at con to keep you entertained.
It is cool to see upcoming product, but as last year proved, it is just icing. The con is the real attraction. I would like to see Paramount have a presence there. An actor, someone in production, Director of Cinematography, something new and informative. Drag Di Bonaventura in for a panel.

I would expect to see Hasbro there.
If the rumors of a 6" SDCC Joe item are true, and with all the talk we've heard about there actually being a Joe team in play again, I really think Hasbro will have SOMe presence at Joecon, even if we don't see much, if anything, at Toy Fair.

All depends on Toy Fair. If there is Joe stuff revealed, I think we'd see them at Joecon. If no Joe stuff, probably won't see them at Joecon.
I do think the new brand manager will probably show up and be incognito if Hasbro doesn't have an official presence.

I agree, Toyfair will be the tell. I do hope we see a Hasbro/Joe team at either event to show support for the brand. I'm not going to delve into a 6" line myself but anything to keep the Joe name alive is a positive in my book. I'm still holding on to a fleeting hope that the 3 3/4" line may continue even if just a handful of figures (Concept Vault) come out a year.

My knee says yes. It also says it's going to rain.

If they didn't think that the 50th anniversary of the brand was a good enough reason to be there at the last Con, I doubt they will be there next year.
