Is it possible to get the mold library out of China and into a cheaper country like Vietnam. Or for just in time supply, Mexico.

Why no evergreen assortment like Playskool gas with Marvel? Or at least an evergreen buck with changing accessories?

Concerning the vintage G.I. Joes, we tend to know a lot about the employees who created them, and the history behind that portion of the toy line. We know even less about the recent collection, and 50th Anniversary line while managed by Mark Weber.
Please ask him, during his tenure as G.I. Joe brand manager, who were the employees who comprised the team he managed, and what tasks they performed, or items they created. Are any of them still with Hasbro? While we know that G.I. Joe operated with a lower budget, was his team much smaller than other Hasbro efforts? How did they compare? Ask him to discuss cancelled or unreleased items that his team may have been working on (some we know about, and others we probably don’t). Was he working with any freelance artists and sculptors? He probably was, and maybe he will talk about that.

Did you get any royalties after you were let go, if an item you created was not planned for release, but they released it anyway? For example, did you get any royalties for the Renegades RB when it was included in the SDCC set?

Did the Joe Hasbro team ever consider changing the chest split for a waist split?
If he can talk about, what WERE the plans for the Joe toys that would’ve rolled out with the 3rd Joe movie (before it was postponed)? What was the new direction planned to be? Scale change? New characters?

With 50th Duke (packed in with Tombstone), since that was on the budget line as a "new" figure despite being a simple repaint, why wasn't he done as an "ultimate" ARAH using the 50th DATD Flint body (or something along those lines) in an ARAH-accurate color palette? That was a Duke in a non-rerelease budget slot so if you're doing a repaint why THAT repaint instead of what we all wanted so badly?
Maybe find another more tactful way to put it, but was there a reason they couldn't go ultimate (if so...what reason?) or was it a choice on his part?
