How would someone contact the Joe team at Hasbro (or any other GI Joe professional), without annoying/boring/creeping them out, and getting a "real" answer from them instead of a form letter or vagueness, or no response at all?

Hasbro is a huge corporation. You'll never get a "real" answer out of them, unfortunately.

I would modify the Dark Lord's answer a bit and say there's no way to guarantee an answer out of them. They're always going to be free to respond however they're going to respond. If their party line is a form letter, you'll always get a form letter. If their party line is vagueness, you'll always get vagueness. And if their party line is not to respond, you won't get a response.
Now, that said, I wouldn't underestimate the value of snail mail. A heartfelt personal letter would at least be something different to try and stand out from the emails and internet comments they're bombarded with. You know the names of a lot of the people at hasbro who are involved, and it's easy to google the company's address. As for how to keep it from being annoying/boring/creeping them out? Just don't make the content, tone, or frequency of your correspondence annoying, boring, or creepy. Another option is, with comic-con, it does look like they are going back to doing public appearances. While you may not be able to make it to Comic-con, there could be other public appearances that you might be able to make it to. That said, you still wouldn't be guaranteed their answer wouldn't be vaugeness or a "Canned" answer. There's also the chance that no answer is a good answer. If they were able to definitively tell you no, they aren't going to do that, that would be hopeless. But the fact that they can't say for sure might at least still mean it's on the table. But trust me, if there was a way for me to force the information I wanted out of them, I'd know when and where I could pre-order Low-light.

Keep posting and pushing for #teamZandarandZaranaTwins
don't ever stop no matter what the naysayers naysay because its a free forum and its just words on screens so people should chill out. But Emily and Lenny will see and their appreciation of #Zandar will awaken, if it hasn't already.

Just do whatever it was you did to get to Larry Hama. Clearly that worked, since it was right in the comic book that they're twins!

I still believe that Lenny would relish an opportunity to take a character like Zandar that is often maligned by the fandom, and make him cool enough that fans will be wowed and surprised and be eager to purchase him. Plus he seems to have an affinity for the Dreadnoks generally.
