That said, I don't feel IC3 VIP3R'S idea is not without merit. A modular design system applied to accessories and vehicles, I feel, still has merit in this market (heck, Hasbro themselves were experimenting with that in 2005's 3.75 line, with modular ports on vehicles for weapons (included with vehicles and basic figures) and a BAT theme which emphasized swappable accessories) I just don't feel applying that to the entire brand (which would turn Joe into a less stylized Mashers line) is as easy or as viable as it is presented.

Ah me hearties, the answer to all ye woes:
Take this template, and apply it to 6" scale (maybe even 4"?). Add some gear ports. Add some big honkin weapons, spring loaded (they can be awesome). Pets, beasts, monsters (Bio-Viper!), modular weapons/gear, small vehicles...cmon. Git r done!

I know that the state of the Joe brand is not what we would like at the moment. I share the concerns over the general health of the brand that we love, but like a bunch of folks I think there is still hope for the future.
As I'm sure others have stated - some of the Hasbro higher ups for Gi Joe have been using the term "low tide" in reference to the Joe brand. It's a strong message that there is expected to be a high tide again, and we will see future Joe product. Hopefully we will see the Joe brand bounce back and stay at retail. But let's keep the faith, I think there will be good news forthcoming, perhaps at Joecon, SDCC or maybe next year.

I see there is only one thing that can make us all happy. We have to invade Vietnam...again.
Just think about it. If we go back in, reinstate the draft, get the cia to tell hasbro that we need civilian support, then and only then will we have the potential to get action figures on the shelves again. Now who's with me? I like this guy this guy F#@ks |
