With the recent interest in ROC toys declining and the dvd coming out, why in the world are we not hearing anything about a spin off cartoon to launch a new line. Very poor strategy on Hasbros part imo. They did it with star wars, i mean seriously, come on already!

You didn't see the items about Hasbro annoucing something cartoon related on Nov 5th?

I am going to be surprised if they mention something regarding a new Joe cartoon. If we do, I seriously doubt it will be in 2010. And we all know it'll be nothing like Resolute. Hasbro's trying to get ne kids into G.I. Joe, a new generation of collectors. With that said we're going to get a very kiddified Joe cartoon.

which is honestly fine with me. For Joe to live long and prosper, kids need to get into it to buy stuff. For that to happen, a good kid's cartoon needs to be introduced. If super successful, we may see a few more resolute episodes, but I wouldn't hold my breath. And hey, the kid version could be good too.
I'm afraid what they'll do this time, |

I've said it before and what do you know, I'm saying it again.
I think it's gonna be the "Pursuit of Cobra". The new redesigns and stuff just point to a cartoon. The movie wasn't that kiddiefied unlike Transformers. It's going to be "Pursuit of Cobra", a dark cartoon for all ages. |

There are plenty of great cartoons that kids and adults enjoy alike. I remember the X-Men cartoon in the early/mid 90s and The Batman as kids that I knew adults were watching. Resolute may have been a little too grown-up, but not as grown up as maybe we think it was. Kids aren't as naive as we were and can take a lot more than what we may be able to have taken. Also, looking at all the past Joe cartoons, Resolute was WAY more advanced, and while we liked it, we think it's too much for kids. It would almost definitely have to be along those lines to continue the ROC storyline. If they don't get a new cartoon out by summer break, I'll be really surprised if this toy line doesn't completely die until another movie comes out.

i'm optimistic about this new cartoon, even if i have no real reason for it,lol ! and as for a decline in roc figure sales or interest, i'm wondering if this is a fact or speculation? where i live the figures are selling out all the time, even the wave one vehicles are hard to come by.
