Through social media engagement/outreach, Hasbro is simply (and wisely) attempting to dramatically expand the G.I. Joe brand beyond the current (aging/shrinking) base. In particular, to ignite interest among children and their highly educated/higher income millennial parents. Thus, there's nothing for you folks to be so frightened of. No one is trying to take your toys away. PS Here is the full list of Hasbro job opportunities ... https://jobs.hasbro.com/viewalljobs/

No need to wait/wonder. If/when I run Hasbro, the company will make statements that sound just like this ...

You like to talk in circles. GI Joe needs to be this or that to attract new fans or die....parents don’t want this and that. Joe hasn’t been killed off in over 50 years and it will out live us all because it still makes Hasbro money. How about this. Instead of trying to change GI Joe when you are clearly not a fan (a fan of trolling for sure). Take your ideas and pitch them to Hasbro for a new toy line that is exactly what you and Hasbro want. That way you and Hasbro don’t have the “problematic” history and “grumpy old men” to deal with. But we both know that won’t happen for two reasons. One because it’s not what you want. Two because you’re not into creating, it’s the other thing. |

That was actually going to be the title of the scrapped sequel to megaforce.

Not "trolling". Merely offering a different perspective. But excellent idea, actually. Though instead of simply "new", I think Hasbro and I would prefer "a constantly evolving toyline reimagined for a new generation".

We could even just get rid of GiJoe and create something which isn't GiJoe!
