You may remember i posted an email reply from Hasbro UK back in October after i asked whether POC would be released in the UK. hasbro replied that it was undecided, which let to a huge argument about what that meant.
Anyway i emailed again and just got this reply........ Thank you for your enquiry regarding our G.I. Joe range. We can confirm that there are no current plans to release any further G.I. Joe product in the UK during 2010. Again thank you for contacting us and for your continued interest and support in our products. Kind Regards, Donna Hasbro UK Ltd 00800 22427276 So thats that. I think we will get the film figures for ROC 2 but as far as POC and any other filler figures/vehicles that is that. Seeing as we never got the 25th and only got half of the ROC line i can't even say it was good while it lasted. I expect the rest of Hasbro Europe will soon follow with the same reply. Damn.......

Maybe this is me just being hopefull, but they did say for 2010, maybe their current plans are to see how well POC does stateside then bring it over there in 2011
or maybe the US is just pissed that they can't get the 3 3/4" Harry Potter figures or any of the Doctor Who toys over here and said you don't get GI Joe |

they need to make ACTION MAN into a 3 and 3/4 inch line to take the place of GI JOE, then slowly mix the two lines

By then the US would be on wave 2 or 3 with Wave 1 long out of production. So if they did release anything early 2011 we would still miss out on all the initial waves. I doubt they would start releasing anything that far after launch. As for Potter figures, Potter or Joe? I don't consider that a good trade off. :/

Wait? 3 3/4" Harry Potter figures? I WANT!!!
That does suck. Maybe we can set up some kind of "Joes for Englanders" exchange program on the 'Tank.

Well the POC line comes out in the fourth quarter of 2010 correct? That could be mean they will be seen overseas in the first part of 2011 right?
Maybe they just aren't going to have enough time to ship the new products overseas in 2010 because of when they will be released here in the USA?
