This is excellent news! He did great during POC and also brought the retro back to Transformers with War for Cybertron (Siege, Earthrise, Kingdom) and also Worked on Prime Wars Trilogy. Nothing but good news here. Hey Warden...how about a Haslab USS Flagg or Terrordrome? PLEASE?

Yo, look at all this optimism. Someone who has clearly succeeded in their roles at Hasbro being moved from a "Franchise Brand" to leading an "Emerging Brand"?
No way this is anything but him getting greater responsibility on a franchise based on corporate's recognition that (a) the brand needs it and (b) he's the ideal candidate for it. Love it.

Most (if not all) of the Classified figure designs we love were created by Fred Aczon (2D Sculpts). If you guys aren't familiar with his name you are definitely familiar with his work

This very VERY exciting. John Warden has lead to the creation of some of the most successful iterations in design for so many properties.
Anyone that doesn't think this is great news needs to give specific reasons. Because this is one of the best things to happen to the brand since Classified was announced.

This has to be a good thing. He has previous Joe experience that was successful. He understands the brand and I hope he has kept up with the current issues surrounding the exclusives. I'm worried a 3rd Cobra Island fiasco could kill this line with collectors. They need to have as many Major Bludd figures out there as a regular figure release. We pretty much know that Firefly and Viper was produced in less amounts than Cobra Island Wave 1.
