G.I.Joe Collectors Convention 50th Anniversary Celebration To Be Held Without Hasbro.
G.I.Joe Collectors Convention 50th Anniversary Celebration To Be Held Without Hasbro - GI Joe News This news should come as no surprise given there is no current active G.I. Joe Team at Hasbro and the heavily photo-shopped 50th Anniversary presentation shows product in early stages of development. Simply put, there may be nothing ready for public display in regards to the G.I. Joe 50th Anniversary Line. At this point it's a waiting game to see if we get to see this on display at JoeCon in any capacity.

Well that should tell everyone what Hasbro think's about GI Joe. One would think this would be a big deal.

Pathetic.
For real. Why bother with a third movie? What's the point? |

Still going... It's about the Joe collecting community, not Hasbro.

Because the past two made decent money. These movies are supporting the brand, not weighing it down.

The last movie made money at the box office but made next to nothing for Hasbro in sales given a huge Movie promotion. But lets stay on topic in this thread. If you want to talk about that start a thread in the G.I. Joe Movie forum.

Maybe they wanted to go, but since they couldn't register...
Seriously, though- I get the feeling that this convention will NOT be well attended. On the plus side, maybe FP will actually have some at-con exclusives to sell after the fact. You'd think Hasbro could send ONE employee to the 50th. Anniversary con to give a short presentation/slideshow of the upcoming TRU stuff, even if they don't have a display. It would probably be in FP's best interest to even approach Hasbro, and offer to foot the bill for one team member to attend. |

I would like to offer Hasbro $7.38 for the rights to GI joe. It's obvious they don't care about it and that'll be $7.38 they'll get as opposed to nothing for just sitting on it. I just see this news as the final nail in the coffin. I hate to be so negative, but this is negative news.
