Yes, I know that is the last thing some fans would want. It's not number one on my list either, but do we need our fanboy cousins to keep GI Joe on the retail shelves?
1. The movie is a mess
2. There is no vidoe game
3. There is no cartoon
4. There is no active toyline
Dollar General Joes turned out to be a mess
The Club can't get the sub going (like it or not it is a line of
figures)
5. The comic is irrelevant to the fanbase (just ask the 12 or so fans who showed up at the IDW panel at Joecon).
Other than the slight hope that the movie is going to connect with the fans or better yet the non fans, Joe seems to be at a low point.
A crossover would be simple if Hasbro would do it. Even things like this years SDCC Hisstank could be included as is with a small Transformer and Destro included. Snake Eyes and a transforming motorcycle, Baroness and a Ravage etc etc
Heck a crossover cartoon or video game.
So is this the last thing to save Joe? Do the Transformers even have enough retail power to do the trick.
Do you think Joe is ok as is? And if you do please explain b/c it sorta looks like the sky is falling.
