Been out of the loop for a few months and was wondering if anyone could catch me upto speed on the latest news as to whether the 25th series will die with the release of the "Rise of Cobra" series? I have ordered Assualt on Cobra Island 7 packs but wondered what was next or if that was it for the 25th series? Anyways your info is greatly appreciated!

That really is the million dollar question... that no one knows yet. LOL. We all have to hold our collective breath and see how well the movie does first before anything is decided by Hasbro methinks.

yeah as of right now hasbro has said nothing about if and when the modern line will continue so we will just have to wait and find out.

Pretty much what was said above is what we all have heard. Hasbro has been hush hush about anything other than the ROC line. Maybe in the upcoming months we will have some sort of an answer...

What are the chances that Hasbro's next move would be similar to what they did to Transformers? The "Universe/Classics 2.0" has now taken a step back in favor of the RoTF toy line for the next year.

Well Hasbro has said that there will be "classic" figures intermixed with the movie line. IE: Sgt. Thunderblast (Thunder), Nitro-Viper (Motor-Viper), Night Force Tunnel Rat, etc...
But I haven't heard about classic figures on classic cards yet, but seeing as they did this with the Transformers line, I wouldn't be surprised to see Joes come back after the movie line |

i think it will start back up next yr as movie lines only last about a yr or two. if they keep the movie line going (if the sale & movie do well) they might ( hope ) they give us 2 lines. 1 just for movie figs 2 for 25th/me& resolute

Well eventually they will run out of movie related stuff to put out. I think to keep the line alive they will do more of the classic Joes with ROC packaging. Of course, being Hasbro, they will probably reissue all the 25th stuff we already have as repaints in ROC packaging.

Yeah, it reminds me of how Hasbro handles the animated Clone Wars and regular Star Wars lines, with them coming on slightly different carding.

Sure. Why kill off a line that makes money.
