The 25th anniversary figures?
I read that soon they may not say 25th anniversary on them but will they still make remakes of the originals? I really hope so but with the movie looming, they'll probably start releasing movies figs. So will this all be done with soon? I hope they release more 25th style figs even while the movie figs come out. I love the 25th line!!! |

expect the 25th anniversary line to last up until the movie which is august 2009 (thats a while yet) so count on another years worth of figures leading up to the movie

I think it was mentioned on here a time ago that the 25th logo will be dropping off this year, and they have full plans for figures through the release of the movie in 2009, and then they will focus on the movie line for a while.
Now, with the EXTREME popularity of the 25th line, I think they'll keep it going either concurrently or shortly after the movie line figures come out. |

The 25th badging comes off in June/July of this year (at the end of the 25th year celebration). The line of redoing to original figures will continue until the end of the year, possibly early 2009. After that we will start to see the movie line. At this point, there is no word as to what will happen to this new ARAH line once the movie has come and gone. I would suspect we'll see it continue in some form.

Who knows, with hasbro they could keep the 25th line all the way up to the movie and then just focus on movie figs and keep the 25th line to store exclusives like they have done with the joe line in the past, ie TRU exclusives...

In the interview I read with a Hasbro exec they will keep making the "style" of figs they currently are; they will just remove the logo. The reintroduction of the 25th line was geared towards collectors, then they will distribute them in mass force.
(For example, I take it to mean that we will see a Wave 1 Flint loking the exact same as the one released in 2007, but without the logo. |

I think they'll run it like they do Star Wars. A majority of the line during the movie year will focus on that area, but there will still be classic fig's in the mix too, especially since Hasbro said the movie fig's will be made with the same style as the 25th fig's now.
