I'd like to see Hasbro do what Hotwheels does/did, release figures at the same price point of the regular lot, and packaged with the regular assortment just in a much smaller fixed quantity, something like 1,200 or so--make it worth a collector's while.
I think it'd be great to have 6 or 12 Treasure Hunt figures a year (one per month or one every two months). It's a win-win scenario for Hasbro, retailers and fans as well. Never. Ever. What the Russians did to the German Tigers with shovels and vodka bottles will pale in comparison to what I do with my smoking pipe and pen if Hasbro EVER does with Joes what I see go on with Hot Wheels. Wonderful in theory. Epic f**kin fail in reality. The only ones who will win are the goddamn scalpers. |

Chinese resellers have been posting images of production level samples of figures from waves 14 and on. Will these figures see a MASS retail release, or will they end up like Monkeywrench and Resolute Gung Ho as retail exclusives?
Carded samples of Wave 14 have appeared online. Are these simply leftovers from when the wave was cancelled, or will the wave see some sort of release like the Stinger/Arctic Hiss wave of vehicles?

Is there any chance that we will see any of the classic vehicles like the Mauler, Crimson Attack Tank, S.M.S., or possibly Skystiker? I know the focus is on the movie but the 25th stuff is hot right now. I don't know any collectors that wouldn't buy this stuff over the movie products.

Yeah, I know it sucks having to pay big bucks online for rare toy X, but theirs a certain excitement one gets when locating a hard to find piece of merchandise.

If Hasbro isn't already doing this, all Treasure Hunt figures should be shipped at the same time to ensure all areas have a chance at getting one (marking the boxes with identifiable numbers is a mistake, as I recall Hotwheel collectors zeroing in on rare cards with box ID numbers); figures need to be randomly packed!

So you see, the idea I had in mind is a bit different from what already exists, if I understood you correctly.

alright hasbro, no more cover-ups, no more deceptions! the beans are out and the cats have spilled. i have seen the wal-mart codes, we all have. do these ring a bell?
hman vs cbmndr sktor vs flnt that's what i thought! we know now, we caught you! this is obviously he-man vs. cobra commander and skeletor vs flint comic packs. my first question is: will he-man and skeletor be in the first rise of cobra or just the sequel to rise of cobra. i can't really tell with this script i got on e-bay for part 2. furthermore, will these figures be packaged in the movie theme or in classic joe vs he-man packaging. the joe community demands answers HB! my 2nd question is: does this mean you and mattel are friends again and can play together nicely? thanks again, A.V.A.C. p.s. still awaitin' that phone # no hurry |

That's not He-Man... it's Herman, Duke's step brother who is slightly... deficient in the upper body strength department.
Now the Sektor vs Flint seems promising... maybe the return of Mortal Kombat figures?* Maybe they'll just randomly sew them into other toylines somewhat haphazardly. I mean, we already got a Baraka. *Please don't mistake my twisted humor as speculation |

These are the 3 questions I want to submit to Hasbro. We have a very small window to change these up. Debate them now, be nice..........
Since Hasbro is Hosting a Resolute Q&A all questions about the Cartoon and Animation and DVD release will be left out of this round. 1) What is the status of Wave 14 and 15? We have seen a lot of carded figures from this wave show up on the web. Will these be placed into the Rise of Cobra along with the Resolute Figures? 2) Many fans are still missing Build A M.A.S.S. Device G.I. Joe DVD sets #3, #4, and #5 is almost a myth at retail. Will we see a restock on these and will Canada see a release. 3) Are there any vehicles form G.I. Joe: Resolute planned for production? That Cobra H.I.S.S. is new hotness!

3)As noted on a poll on our site, the distribution of DVD Set #5 has
been HORRENDOUS. We know Hasbro has been working with retailers on improving distribution, but when will we FINALLY see items we want versus week after week of revision cases rotting on the pegs? Will DVD Set #5 specifically be redistributed in better numbers rather than 1 per case? Hasbro works with retailers on distribution by assortment, but distribution by item (such as DVD #5) is determined by a combination of case packs, sell through, and inventory. DVD Set #5 was produced in a good quantity and will make its way into fans hands.
