No Rogue One nerf-shooting AT-AT will not be shown, and that's a bummer.
Maybe GI JOE will return with Nerf-launchers? |

I am thinking they will show sculpting or . have more to announce about the joe fan vote figure. Haven't heard anything since they announced who won. If they continue with tru 50th line probably won't announce anything, after all rhis is a trade show to show off to retail store to generste sales. save the 50th for joecon if they continue to be exclusive no need point to waste space showing product no one else can buy.

Spider-Man Classics Wave 4 (I think?): Silk Spider-Woman ("Old Man Logan" timeline character/Ashley Barton) Electro (Presumably comic-version) Shocker (Probably a swap with Electro) Peter Parker (Unknown if this is just a "civilian" figure or something else) Ultimate Spider-Man (Miles Morales) BAF: Unknown (Sandman?) Doctor Strange: Doctor Strange (Comic...probably classic outfit) The Ancient One Nico Minoru Karl Mordo Brother Voodoo Doctor Strange (Movie) Doctor Strange (Movie - Astral Plane) BAF: Unknown Captain America Legends Wave 2: Cap (Movie) Iron Man (Movie) Black Panther (Movie) Nuke (Comic) Nick Fury (Classic Comic) Red Guardian BAF: Spoilery, so not being mentioned for now. It's out there if people want to know. Captain America Legends Wave 3: Captain America (Age of X) Iron Skull Scarlet Witch (Movie) Tigra Crossbones (Movie?) King Cobra Captain Britain BAF: Unknown, but may be the Abomination figure that was sneak-peeked at SDCC last year. So yeah...add in the X-Men Legends and the Cap and Spidey waves we already have and it's gonna be a huge year for MLs. At least 7 waves, and possibly 8 if they toss in one more Spider-Man Legends wave (since that line seems to be "evergreen" for them). Last edited by Jmacq1; 02-10-2016 at 01:09 PM.. |

Bringing up Marvel and all the rest is cheating. I predict there will be nothing of interest from GI Joe.

Ok, I'm obviously greatly biased, but I really hope we see something from the Kindle Worlds Contest. I had asked at one point if it'd be revealed at a Kindle Worlds Panel and JoeCon, and I was told that Hasbro wouldn't do that because it would have been leaked at the factory by then. It would seem too early to show off something now, but given that statement, maybe I am wrong? I'm hoping we see not only that figure but what is coming with it.
Other than that, I predict we'll see a LOT of Star Wars stuff (even without Rogue One) that will keep my wallet bleeding money. I keep saying I'm not doing 6" Marvel, yet I seem to have just about all of them from the last few years. I'd say we'll see some stuff that will make me spend more money there that I'm not planning on spending. The 4" line, which is truly what I collect, will get the shaft. Maybe we'll see the 4 they revealed on HasbroPulse. Perhaps they'll show Lockjaw. I don't get my hopes up too high there after the past few years. There always seems to be some surprise that comes out of left field and blows me away. I wonder what that will be this year. |

I am not going to guess about anything other than Joe stuff. I am hoping that they will preview the 3 3/4" line that they said would be out this fall. I would love to see 4 two packs and 4 three packs, as well as a couple of vehicle packs( that we would actually want ). The Rattler is rumored.
Now on to the controversy, I am really hoping/ expecting Hasbro to do a line of 6" G.I. Joe Legends figures. Much like the Black series from Star Wars. I know a lot of people hate this idea, and a lot love it. But the shift with super articulated and detailed figures from Hasbro is leaning towards 6" not 3 3/4". They have also stated that their profit margin with 6" is so much higher. I am more than willing to support both 3 3/4" and 6" Joe lines. The 6" is all about the characters. I could see them doing 4 waves in 2016 of 6" figures. My guesses/wants: Wave 1: 1. Duke, 1984/modern 2. Snake Eyes, with 1982 and 1985 head sculpts( like the POC ); Timber would be nice too. 3. Scarlett, 1982/ Modern 4. Cobra Commander, done like the Ult. Ret. figure with 1982 & 1984 heads sculpts 5. Storm Shadow, 1984 style, like the Ult. Ret. figure 6. Cobra Trooper, like the POC figure; give them an AK-47 and Dragonov Wave 2: 1. Flint, 1985/Modern 2. Gung-Ho, 1983/Modern 3. Roadblock, 1984/Modern 4. Destro, 1983/Modern 5. Firefly, 1984/Modern 6. Cobra Officer Wave 3: 1. Stalker, 1982/Modern 2. General Hawk, 1986 style 3. Beach Head, 1986 4. Baroness, 1984 5. Zartan, 1984 6. Crimson Guard, 1985 Wave 4: 1. Lady Jaye 2. Shipwreck, ( like the Dollar General figure ) 3. Low-Light 4. Major Bludd 5. Dr. Mindbender, lab coat version 6. Battle Android Trooper |

- Phoenix - Havok - Cable - Iceman - Kitty Pryde - Deadpool - Wolverine - Rogue And I saw one place that listed Iron Fist with the Dr. Strange wave, hopefully a newer sculpt than what was used in last year's Avengers line. I'd love to see a green outfit with the big yellow collar. Definitely a lot coming during the year!

seeing that they didn't even bother listing joe on the Hasbro toyfair invites, I'm feeling the same way. Hope to be wrong about that though-

That's nothing really new, though. Pretty sure we've had years that Joe didn't get close to "top billing" but still had showings at Toy Fair. Plus if they're relaunching they probably wouldn't be announcing it until their presentation itself.
