I am just wondering if Hasbro is dumping the modern era line early in favor of gearing up to start droping movie figures on us? I mean vehicles wave 2 09 have been canceled.BBTS has also taken down pre orderes for wave 14 singles. I am not seeing pre orders for anything else new. The other thing that bothers me is we have not heard anything from Hasbro as to why these items were canceled. I hope i'm wrong but it looks like the modern era stuff might either be canceled or on hold.

Doubt it. Really, really doubt it. Unless the line was struggling there is no reason they would cancel it. They might be reshuffling plans for releases and such. It is odd however that official pics for wave 13 were never released. They already released a statement about 4 months ago stating that the modern line was continuing alongside the movie line.

Lots of threads on these topics...
Long story short... Current line will, and correct me if I'm wrong, go on a temporary hiatus for the movie line similar to how it was done for Transformers. (although I have heard there will be 3 concurrent lines of Movie, ARAH and Resolute) The vehicles were not canceled (regardless of how it was worded) but more or less rescheduled. |

The line is not going to be canceled.
BUT... I wouldn't be surprised to see all the packaging changed over to Resolute, regardless of what figure is on the card. |

well for me, the packaging means dick as i open my figures anyways. As long as we get the classic looking characters they could call it she-ra for all i care.

Don't worry, this line's not going anywhere. Even if the movie tanks they'll still continue the modern line. Right now GI Joe is a gold mine and Hasbro knows it.
