I was curious, does Hasbro give out review figures for members of hiss tanks or GI Joe website moderators/reviewers outside of just pictures?
I know that we wait and see who gets them first either in Asia or somewhere in the world to post pictures up but, I've always wondered before these waves of vehicles, two-packs or individual toys are released for retail, if reviewers on hisstank or other GI Joe sites are sent figures/vehicles for early review?

Hasbro realizes that most of the cats who'd review stuff would buy it anyways, why the hell would they want to throw sales away?

But was always curious if the same thing with GI Joe's (or any of Hasbro's toyline). But always was curious about that. I know Mattel has done that...in fact, I remember when several toy site moderators/press received that low print run of the Justice League Unlimited Green Lantern (Hal Jordan).

Oh, I'd love it if they did! And further more, my wallet would love it if they did. Note to Hasbro: even though this is a Joe site, we would love a free sample of the BMF to play wit....I mean review.

I dont think hasbro is that smart..... sad but true, they are convinced they know exactly what makes people happy.

Dude, sorry to be off topic, but Eopie Herder, that has got to be the most offensive and funny sig-pic I've ever seen.

Do you really think Hasbro cares about what grown men think about toys? It's not like it's something legitimate reviewed in the press, it's guys with free-time and a geocities website.
