I just recently picked up a Snake Eyes from the Rise of Cobra line. I didn't buy it because I have any desire for Snake Eyes, but because the head is an exact modern era interpretation of Night Vulture whom I'm making a custom of.
So this leads me to wonder. Are we going to see RoC tooling further down the line? Will movie Storm Shadows head be used to make a Dice figure? Will RoC Cover Girls body become RAH body later down the line. I wonder if Hasbro is going to reuse the molds in this line. Since we didn't see the reuse of the movie TF molds in the lines that followed. |

Without a doubt.
Also, this line isn't going to end any time soon. There will still be RoC line going in 2010, they may end up dropping the RoC tag and just leave it G.I. Joe. But they won't stop making Joe toys, and those that tie into the movie-verse, anytime soon (as long as they sell of course..)

The molds from the first TF movie are already showing up again.
Joe is even easier to repaint. Expect it. |

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Especially with 2 more movies coming in the series after this one(ROC). We could be seeing movie line figures/vehicles for the next 6-8 years at that rate!

Are there going to be sequels to the movie? If there are they will definitely both reuse parts and make new ones.

Isn't ROC Cover Girl's body and thighs just a retooling of 5 pack Lady Jaye's?

Yes, Hasbro uses the same tooling until it's either:
1.) lost 2.) becomes too popular (because they like to see us suffer ) |
