I appreciate the work on the pole, but most of the options seem to leave little choice but the obvious, i.e. the Flagg, terrordrome, etc. Fort A merica? The 92 headquarters? The last question is the one we should be looking at, items that have never been done. I know Jabbas barge is the only thing to go by so far, but I have to believe beyond the business aspect, the designers want to work on something new with (almost) no limits.
The poll is a great idea though. If we can show there is enough interest and get a general idea of what is wanted maybe they will give it a chance. |

I agree with this.
Some thoughts on the poll options: * As some have stated before, I don't know if retooling an existing vehicle is a great idea through this platform. Let's take the WHALE as an example, as it seems to be highest on most people's lists. Would I pay $60 for a WHALE @ retail w/ Cutter and another figure... ABSOLUTELY. However, would I pay $150-$200 as some people are suggesting as a price point through HasLab... NO WAY IN HELL. That price point is TOO HIGH for this community to support if multiple thousands have to be made. How about the Renegades Coyote?... again, would gladly pay $50 for this with Ren Flint and Lady Jaye @ retail. However, the Renegades line was too short lived to have that kind of financial support from the community. The O-Ring people have no connection, and the toys do not fit in with the modern era aesthetic. This leads me to an un-released ARAH vehicle. In my opinion, this is the only viable option. The O-ring guys do not already have one, so they would be in the market to add to their collection along with the Modern Era Collectors. You would need both sides to support something this big! But your point is still taken. My first and second choices over all else would be #1, The Concept Coyote and #2, that big damn Red Flying Cobra plane.

I would also suggest bringing up an updated V1 Scarlett, as I believe Hasbro stated a few years ago they were looking into doing an updated version of this character, so this could be a great way to push that over the finish line.

Done. A 1:18 scale train is something I have been looking for since years ago with no success.

Done! Hopefully this maybe an option going forward for new vehicles and figures.

Given what Mark Weber (name?) said on a recent podcast, he neither confirmed nor denied the chaotic state of Joe molds, but did basically say they are fluid and not we’ll documented. He also stated the Club knew very well what was available at the moment. The working assumption should be that the molds are a mess.
All that being said, I’d love love love the brand people to peruse the mod sites and find the best Sunbow RAH mods that people have cobbled together. Release large 12 packs of the core characters with such figures in Joe and Cobra. My belief is retail Joes starting in 2020 and going forward will be 6 inchers, so I’d like a 3.75 Sunbow blowout before it is all said and done. Last edited by Bubbavader; 02-21-2018 at 08:12 PM.. |

In the unproduced section, I would like to see an option for 6" scale Joe figures. I know that it is controversial (and I was one of the ones saying that I absolutely did not want that up until about a year ago) but it is one of the wishes that constantly pops up pretty much everywhere that I go.
