That Figures: NEWS: GI Joe Kwinn Comic Con 2012-Exclusive
If this is true, Hasbro really deserves all the hatred lately. This is flat-out bullshit. |

Why would they do this with such an essential character? And without his kayak what is the point of buying him anyway?

Oh, Noz! He's going to cost $20 more!
A never released during ARAH, forgettable (for most people) comic pack figure from the 00's based on a character in a few of the Marvel comic books is the IDEAL candidate for a Con exclusive.

I think this is perfect because we'll probably get an arctic variant as well.

Is this website reliable? Seems like this info would have come out during the show last week.

Nope you're wrong.Just because YOU don't like Kwinn, doesn't mean he's "forgettable" or not wanted. Quit being a Hasbro apologist.How dare you suggest I worry about the extra 30 dollars? Do you know my economic status?

Pretty much. People complained that a largely popular character like Sarge or Zarana were exclusives, and that exclusives should be non-iconic characters... and Kwinn fits that well. He's popular amongst adults who read the comics and now it seems he'll be an adult collectible. AND BEFORE EVERYONE FREAKS OUT... this is probably a case of "this is the only way we could get Kwinn to you." Same as Zarana. If this news is true... then we gotta consider ourselves lucky to be getting him at all. Unless it was simply stores not wanting to carry him at which case maybe he'll be made in significant quantity? He would have peg warmed regardless. If kids aren't buying gimmicky and flashy Arctic Destro, kids aren't going to buy the guy from Ice Age. Don't get me wrong... I think Kwinn is an amazing figure who really does have a place in the 30th line... but I also understand (assuming this news is true) why it has to be done. I heard this rumor from a few different people yesterday and it did make sense but since we hadn't heard anything official (which this is claiming to be)... I kinda just put it on the mental backburner.
