Lucasfilm's new military movie, Red Tails, got some nice military vehicles, and even nicer realistic action sequences. I wish a store can pick up a toyline to coincide with this film's release, so Joe fans can get some realistic cool military vehicles! Hey Kennywr22, can you get Target to carry an exclusive line? Anyone here work at Walmart or TRU, can get their corporate buyers to contact 21st Century Toys or All Go Toys to do a one shot / one year exclusive line of toys, seen in this really cool Lucasfilm movie?

Just an educated guess but...No, there won't be toys for this movie.
The movie comes out in January 2012, which is about as dead a dead zone as there is for new toys. Contrary to popular belief, just because Lucas is attached doesn't mean it's about toys. He makes plenty of money off of Star Wars without having to create other toy franchises. There also isn't all that much of a market for "realistic" World War II fighter planes in Joe scale, otherwise 21st Century and BBI would still be plentiful on major store shelves. Heck, even the market for "make believe" vehicles ain't doing so great. |

Looks like a worthwhile story and film to go and see. Toys or not.

If you were wanting cool realistic WWII toys you should have picked up the 21st Century stuff of a few years ago. I think they are no longer making stuff, so getting a new toyline to go along with this movie sounds like a good idea.

They are now All-Go! Toys. I don't know if they'll ever get back off the grounds but as of right now it seems more promising they'll have stuff on the shelves before SKO. We are All-Go! « All-Go Toys |

Looks pretty slick. I'll be watching that one for sure, but I don't count on any toys. I guess it could happen... they made Platoon action figures so anything is possible
