DESTRO: 1. What's the word on G.I. Joe Resolute? Every single fan of G.I. Joe has
been demanding an answer for months now. When can we expect to see more
Resolute figures,vehicles and most importantly ANIMATION? 1a. You can find GI Joe Resolute figures on shelf now. The animation plan is
being finalized and we are hoping to make an announcement soon. Sorry we
cannot provide more information but we do not have any new information to
share at this time.
2. Are we going to see any G.I. Joe Rise of Cobra Comic Packs and can you name a few if these are in the works? 2a. There are currently no plans for this, but it is something we have
discussed for 2010 or 2011.
3. Will there be a Rise of Cobra pre-view figure like Protoform Transformer Optimus Prime and Starscream before the main Movie Line hits? 3a. Yes, we will offer the MARS Trooper 3-pack exclusively online and before
the movie product is available. Hasbro G.I. Joe Q&A Answers for ActionFigureNews.ca - ActionFigureNews.ca - Canadian Action Figure News and Discussion IronMan76: Why only three Q and As this time?! mochadog: What was that???? The questions and answers were very vague and focussed on the movie, which many of us are going to buy very little from. kneroh: I really hoping for a Stephen Colbert-esque "nailed 'em" question. :( CobraCrimson: So now Hasbro is saying there may be movie line stuff coming out until 2011? Looks like the 25th/Modern line might be done altogether or on hold until I fart dust now. I had heard that they(Paramount/Hasbro) want to make G.I.Joe into a trilogy just like the Transformers, does their(Hasbro's) response to The Rise of Cobra comic packs in 2010-2011 maybe hint at a part 2 movie coming in the near future? kneroh: Quote:

If the movie line sells well the movie line will continue to rule the market, especially if it outperforms the 25th or modern era line. Kind of a no brainer here.

Thanks, Hasbro. Derek2783: Dial-Tone will be a chick, no more classic figures confirmed in the future, the characters we're asking for will be released with MOVIE SYLING, NO CONFIRMATION THE MODERN LINE WILL PICK BACK UP, and SLICE AND DICE are on the shortlist? WTF?!?! swafus: As I suspected. Absolutely useless. Batmandk02: Good grief... I coulda been Hasbro... "No Information at this time!" They act like us.. they don't know squat and can't give us any real answers. I swear they are linked to the government. Everyone can see it but no one important wants to talk about it! This is about the stupidest Q&A yet from Hasblow! Bunch of damn morons! SNAKE EYES: Movie questions, Why did it have to be movie questions. I hate movie questions :( SNAKE EYES: Quote:

| I think most of us figured this out months ago. There were way better questions posted then this one.
I'm glad to see the Resolute question, but I like how Hasbro has avoided the answer on every site. They have to have more of an idea what is going on with Resolute then what they are willing to admit. rob0213: What is the point of a Q & A if they don't really answer any questions?
Doesn't that defeat the point? Unclassified: who asked these stupid q's? that aint what i wanna know, i careless if roc has comic packs, or roc will release stuff prior to the movie, i wanna know wtf kinda paint they use lol. that's a much better q then all three of them lame ass q's that refer to the damn corny ass movie an the damn toys that will be custom parts in most of our collections combined! we should'a asked.. you are aware that this movie is gonna suck , an the back bone to success is the old joes revisited aint ya? f these dumb q's anyway. it's always the same old run around except this time it's all about the movie an movie toys! so much better q's to ask other then this corny ass movie that's a poor excuse for being called g.i.joe THE REAL AMERICAN HERO!!! you guys are gettin them all excited an wet thinkin we actually care bout this corny ass movie an the toys that are gonna end up custom fodder! should'a asked why the hell these damn guns so rediculously gigantic an look like they go to a 12 inch doll!! rob0213: Quote:

True.
But at least give us something more than: "Can't tell ya!"
They are the ones pushing Resolute, yet NO info whatsoever. It is ridiculous.
I agree, there are a lot of other questions that could have been asked, but I am not suprised these got asked. Hicks_Royel: At least it wasn't about getting more Dreadnoks. Something we loudly suggested last year was a cooperation between the sites to get more questions asked. I'm glad to see that hasn't happened for the most part. I mean heck, the Canadian site got three good questions in, granted they were all about distribution, but I know for a fact that there's six threads on this site wondering if the fifth DVD pack is going to be released in better quantity in the US.

I'm sorry, but i just jumped on the bandwagon of Let the Rise Of Cobra figures shelf-warm and fail..2011?? WTF! I believe it is now our duty to avoid Rise of Cobra; its success = no more 25th? Jmacq1: Y'know, sometimes when someone says "there's no information"....there really ISN'T any information.
As was noted in another thread, if Hasbro gave a solid answer to something and then for one reason or another it got delayed, cancelled, or otherwise messed with, all the same people complaining about "vague answers" would be screaming to the high heavens, "ZOMG HASBLOW LIED TO US!"
If something isn't reasonably well "locked in" then why are they going to give potentially false information out? If "Resolute" doesn't have a distributor yet...how are they going to know when it's coming?
I suggest Hasbro immediately stop all Q&As. No one will ever be happy with their answers, so why bother?
Anyway...interesting that the MARS Trooper 3-pack is online...I thought for sure that'd be in stores. It really IS going to be a drought between now and July unless there's a WHOLE lot of stockpile backed up in the distribution centers...hopefully stockpile that includes the Best of the 80's DVD pack somewhere.
As for the success of the movie line...the retailers have probably already put in orders for more G.I. Joe movie product for this year than they have in both years of 25A/Modern-Era combined. bigdaddyblue73: Well sounds like my wife will be happy. She was on me today fro buyin too many Joes. Doesn't look like that will happen much longer....
