Hey! Don’t say I’m only one inch! You know better!

I do know better. You are right. But saying 6 inch Dukes wouldn’t make sense in my argument.

So, hey. This thread is a bit dusty, but I have some information that might shed some light on this whole situation.
The report from last January said that a reliable source saw "GI Joe Action Figures" in a limited access space at Nuremberg Toy Fair. Subsequently, GI Joe content from Jazwares disappeared. Given issues with Covid 19, it's possible that Hasbro instructed them to "hold off" on reveals until a coordinated launch in association with Snake Eyes (which was MIA at Toy Fair, and following months seemed to justify that decision to omit that presence with a year long delay). Today, Jazwares sent out press material for a new line of collectible figures: Zoteki. https://www.figures.com/2020/09/10/j...oteki-figures/ 4" Collectible figurines. Now, if you saw these at a glance, they could be misinterpreted as standard action figures. And if they were showing 2 or even 3 Series? That's a wide range of potential character selections. I'm not saying that's what happened, but I can certainly see the possibility if Jazwares is setting up Zoteki as a new collection line, they would certainly have multiple licenses to leverage, much like their Domez line. Perhaps this solves the great mystery of the Jazwares GI Joe figures? |

Did this ever get resolved and I just missed it?

I assume it went instead to Hiya. It was probably about making a new 4" line

I'm thinking it might be the 4" Call of Duty line:

No, it never was. The rumors were started probably by their
Call of Duty figures. Jazwares definitely didn't get the Gi Joe license.

I remember this thread being full of fun speculation until the confirmation finally came down and sucked all of the joy out of it. The series of links in the first post of the thread sums up the news progression pretty well:
