Well that's good news. I wonder if there will be a Vipers Kingdom in India to get factory rejects since they will be made there.

Most likely the same. Funskool no longer operates for Hasbro so, we may not see any variants. But the distribution will be for South East Asia. Chinese/Vietnam factories will cater to United States until they are moved away from China and into India.

I wonder if they will continue to use the Modern Era bucks or make something entirely new?

Cool!
Now if they could manage to reintroduce GI Joe toys to America I’d be really excited!

Well that is actually promising news, but how about the rest of us? Namely the US?

We’ll be getting cartoony de-articulated 5 inch figures like the new Star Wars stuff. India will get the unreleased concept vault figures and we’ll have to pay insane eBay prices only for the cards to be bent and bubbles smashed by the time they arrive here since it’s such a far distance. But we will be grateful, in fact delighted, because it’s new Joe figures.

I live in Sri Lanka; the neighboring country of India. Trust me when I say that back in 1980s and 90s G.I. Joe was the No. 1 selling toy in both countries. In fact, it was the first branded toy to be sold here. It introduced branded toys to our countries.
I still remember the local shop which had a massive aisle full of Joe toys. I convinced my parents and visited there a week later and it was all gone except for 5 toys. It was also the first toyline to feature TV commercials with child actors from both countries. One of them grew up to be a Bollywood star too. G.I. Joe is a recognized brand name in India as much as it was for the US at that time. Ah, the good ol' days. |
