I'll leave it to the mods if they want to create an official thread, but the Joe Pulse livestream is Valentines Day at 11am. It's been over a half a year since we got any news about new O-ring product. If we don't hear anything this time, I will consider the line "on hiatus".

I am optimistic.

Nice! Thanks for the heads up on it. Looking forward to it.

I think we'll at least see something officially from Hasbro on the TFxJoe stuff that's been heavily rumored.

I sure hope that we see anything.

^This.

I?m also throwing a dart and coming up with an eventual SE ?85 and SS ?88 pack on the way?

Of course, a Ripcord and Scarlett 2 pack, first.

I agree. The Thunder Machine/Zartan/Zaranna has a lot of evidence to support that it's coming, and since they signed Slaughter to his current deal, it makes sense for them to try and squeeze as much out of it as possible. With a 2-3 year development cycle, even if they consider Megatron and Bumblebee failures, they're probably too far along to just "write off" the next two.

A line where Hasbro is investing in full tooling that doesn't give us a V2 SE would seem a glaring omission. Ripcord seems obvious, and Scarlett just makes sense. V2 Storm Shadow is less obvious (not as iconic), but the lack of Destro is glaring and a 1986 Viper would sell like hotcakes.

I do expect one more Haslab at some point. Maybe not yet, and they may hold off on a lot of stuff until they see how a second goes. But GI Joe is 2 for 2 on Haslabs, and that's a good thing.
