How great were those toys? Cobra desperately needed a fighter jet, and Joe needed Air Support for it's armor. Oh, I would love to have new editions of the Tiger Rattler and the Python Conquest. The original paint jobs on those vehicles were great.

Don't think that Action Figure Insider's has been posted yet:

Q1. Is there any chance of seeing Cover Girl in the 3¾” line before the focus shifts over to the movie figures?
A1. No. Q2. Since Sgt. Slaughter is apparently impossible, would Hasbro be interested in making Super Cop? He was a Funskool character and since Hasbro has been re-making international figures in the 25th line a Super Cop figure would be a great way to get the Sarge without getting the Sarge. Super Cop would be a very niche product that may not appeal to our broader base. A2. The brand feels they should either do a Sarge figure correctly or not do it at all. Q3. Is there a good chance we’ll see singles like Alpine, Low-Light, Dr. Mindbender, and Quick Kick? A3. While you will see Alpine, Quick Kick, and Dr. Mindbender in the line, you will not get them single carded. Q4. I don’t think too many of us expect to see the return of the U.S.S. Flag (although we’d love it!) But are there currently any plans to give us any classic play sets to go along with our sweet figures and vehicles? Joe Base? Checkpoint? Etc? A4. We are looking into some smaller classic playsets for early 2009, but have no plans to release a larger classic playset prior to the movie. Q5. Are there plans on giving us more great vehicles like the Devil Fish, Snowcat, etc. I think all of us would absolutely LOVE to see more vehicles. Especially when keeping good variety with larger (Conquest & Rattler) and smaller (RAM Cycle, Armadillo) vehicles. A5. Yes, we plan on continuing into 2009 with new vehicles that will include a number of newly tooled classic vehicles.

Thanks Fogger. So that pretty much means they'll never do a Sarge. Oh well!

Never say never. Somebody else (Hasbro) could always borrow the rights or even regain the rights to use Slaughter in the future.

No Zandar and Zaranna, but CHUCKLES is coming?
Ok, i can see passing on Zandar, But Zaranna was featured promenintly on the show as well as the comic. I'd think she was somewhat of a Key figure. Chuckles...we get Chuckles. This logic makes my head hurt so much that i've lost the ability to spell "prominently" ok think i got it right.

Just my opinion here but it sure seems hasbro says no to a lot of things when they should be saying YES!!! Like making what we want pre-movie crap. I know they wanna push their stupid movie toys but Give us the choice of which version of cover girl and such that we want not which ones they want us to buy. blah!

I understand they want to push the movie and feel that making figures based on the movie characters will be a great push but I personally dont want a Marlon Wayans action figure... For most of us we have lived and breathed GI Joe for the entire, or almost entire 25th Anniversary. We are the ones who will be crowding the stores and buying the figures so why not listen to our wants/wish lists? There are many more characters I want to see come out before the movie hits the big screen! Also one can only hope that the release of Chuckles is just a joke on behalf of Hasbro.. as him name could suggest! |

Zandar and Zarana should be available together in a comic 2-pack. If we get one then I would want the other.
I don't mind Chuckles being made, either. But the fact that he's being made before Rip Cord and Cover Girl is kind of strange.

I know brett. I mean they make torch and ripper together why not make Zandar and Zarana? They are just stupid and want to put out what THEY THINK we want to see first. I would like to have a nother set of noks like when i was a kid but without those two it wont work at least not for me.
