Online and direct marketing are cheaper. Girls toys probably sell more, boys seem to be more interested in video games and stuff like that.

GI Joe has been in existance since when, 1960? Maybe, after almost 60 years of producing the Joe brand, Hasbro no longer feels they need comercials but instead rely on brand name recognition or intergenrational word of mouth to move the Joes. But, maybe if they started advertising again, more kids would want to buy Joes.

I seem to recall at least one new toy commercial for the RoC PIT set.

I dont know.. I figure you would see commercials on the Hub network at least...
hell... even airing Classic commercials during the RAH and TF g1 reruns would have been cool.

I thought there was a ROC toy commercial. I think that stupid motorized Duke figure was in the commercial too. Hopefully paramount paid for that one because it didn't work.

That would be cool! I saw the commercials when I had the Sunbow cartoons on DVD, but then I sold them so I haven't seen them in awhile.

I actually just went to youtube and looked up some of the old Joe commercials! They were corny just like the cartoon, but there's something that's still cool about them too. Wouldn't it be cool if some of the kids that were in those commercials were tank members?!?

Whatever happened to to gi Joe toy commercials. Like the ones we had back in the day...(80's & early 90's). I don't remember the last time I saw a Joe commercial especially one that made me want to go out and buy up some product. In fact the only toy commercials I do see on tv when I'm watching toons with my kids are girly toy commercials, baby doll commercials and other toys that are just plain terrible. Im not sure I've seen a commercial for transformers or star wars lately. Is hasbro dropping the ball or are they just too expensive to produce? Anyway, might help selling product and introducing Joe to new fans. This is Peter griffin and that really grinds my gears.
