You missed the kitchen sink, buddy. LOL This is an FFF after all- typically a mish-mash of marketing speak and very little actual meat on the bone. I'd merely warn against too much expectation.

We heard you want more BLUDD! Starting next week, additional quantities of Major Bludd will be hitting shelves as part of YO JOE! June. Stay tuned for more exciting G.I. JOE news during tomorrow’s Hasbro Pulse #FanFirstFriday and all month long, including details on reissues of other previously released Special Missions: Cobra Island figures! #YoJoeJune

I am hoping for a Red Ninja and a Night Creeper.
I could care less about a Cobra Infantry though it would be cool if they re-released the 30th viper.

I fucking LOVE how the message for Bludd changed. It went from "Stay tuned for official release date in Yo Joe June" to "Hey it's already released in May but here's more for June!"
Cobra Island is such a fucking joke and I pray to god Bludd is the last. I wish for just one year of no exclusives then we can go back to having them. But let's just...be able to get shit without stress and 15 day rat races of 4 Target trips a day just for a single fucking figure. |

Just take a look at Transformers Generations : Walmart nabbed an entire sub line (13(!) releases) At least two Target exclusive items At least two Amazon exclusive sets (probably one or two more likely) And 3 (thus far) Fan Channel exclusives. That said, given the more modest nature of GI Joe at the moment, I don't think exclusives will be AS aggressive as we've seen going into next year. Anniversary or not, without a major media push (film or series), I don't think retailers will be as gung ho for retail exclusives. But until told otherwise: I wouldn't be surprised by another figure or two in Cobra Island. Amazon will probably get a figure or two Retro will likely remain Walmart exclusive. And I'm expecting one or two "Fan Channel" exclusives by the end of the year.

I maintain that Bludd was always INTENDED to be a big "Yo Joe June" rollout. At least part of the issue with the limited availability may be in part because stores hadn't gotten the inventory they were supposed to (because he was street dated for June). And once that first Target leaked them, it basically opened floodgates fans wouldn't have known about otherwise.
But don't expect exclusives to end. Just take a look at Transformers Generations : Walmart nabbed an entire sub line (13(!) releases) At least two Target exclusive items At least two Amazon exclusive sets (probably one or two more likely) And 3 (thus far) Fan Channel exclusives.

But until told otherwise: I wouldn't be surprised by another figure or two in Cobra Island. Amazon will probably get a figure or two Retro will likely remain Walmart exclusive. And I'm expecting one or two "Fan Channel" exclusives by the end of the year. I don't really mean for exclusives to just outright end. Plus not every exclusive has been hard to get. But if they didn't do any more for a year and just let retail ride out, then I'd be happy. |
