How come the GI Joe brand is producing every kind of toy except the ones I want?
If you look online really quick you will see the top toys in the market for 2017/18 ( as much as you don't want to hear this) are not action figures.
I checked out a few sites like Time, Newsweek, Forbes, CNBC and Amazon's most wished for.
Here some of the top toys that appeared on most of those lists.
L.O.L
Fingerlings
R2D2 droid builder
Tyler the Tiger
Nintendo Switch
Paw Patrol tower
Nerf guns
Hasbro is playing it smart by licensing the property and keeping it alive that way until they can find a way to revitalize the concept which will probably be in Spring of 2020.
