it really irks me that Colton and Shockwave could be done with existing parts and absolutely minimal tooling and would be about 100x more interesting then a slightly recolored Gung-Ho or Rock n' Roll w/ short sleeves (which i do like, although TF Flints or Vipers would have been better than Mutt's) and crappy-ly applied camo pants (which i do not) ~ i do realize that different figures are coming in that pack, but i think the point is still legit...

I love his line, and have enjoyed all of it, but I don't think there is any doubt the Joe team has wrapped up all general involvement in it and their creativity and effort are going into the movie toys. |

Of course, IG and Viper could be cool if they go with their original colors and not some comic look. One way to get rid of the Vipers is to pair it with a desireable troop builder like the Iron Grenadier.

Yep, I was thinking the same exact thing while I as on here the other day. At some point we all knew that Hasbro was going to move their Joe budget over to the movie line. I guess the best we can hope for is that the movie is a huge hit and kids buy up a bunch of the movie figs. Then with some luck, they'll bring back this modern line and continue giving us updated ARAH figures.

I'm thinking Hasbro is saving a lot of our favorites for when this line returns after the movie hiatus in the second half of 2009.
Hasbro has said in the Q and As we are getting one more wave this year (12) and 3 next year. I think with the Walmart listings we now know everything that is coming until the movie line and they seem to be mostly repaints and repacks next year except Blowtorch. I would be surprised if some of those first waves in 2010(!) didn't contain Tunnel Rat, Covergirl, Mindbender, Zarana and the rest. I wonder if the Valor Vs. Venom line made them rethink there srategys, because that line re-did all the characters and introduced new ones in what seemed like a shorter period. |
