See Full Force podcast or youtube for the audio of the roundtable with Lenny, Emily, and various fansite/podcast people where I think Emily's words were the Walmart 4" modern Retro was on hold for a little while while they focus on return of o-ring. This took place after Pulsecon.

I would say this is not a good sign for that particular line of ME figures. Hopefully Joe does so well that it can spawn something like the Star Wars vintage collection in the future.

I would highly recommend watching this "Full Force Podcast" - they (Emily/Lenny, etc.) get into a variety of topics, and specific to this thread, confirming that o-ring will be the retro focus for awhile.

4 inch is where my heart is. But I am not too bummed that the Walmart retro line got canceled ... it sucked anyways.
that line was so mishandled it's crazy. the choices Hasbro made simply can't be explained or excused. However, when you get a nice figure like Stalker, it is tough to imagine what might have been. Maybe one day we will see some designs for what they had planned. I sincerely hope that Bossfight or Marauders takes a shot at a GiJoe club type offering. |

Honestly I am mildly interested in picking up my top favorite figures, just to display on card really. But I still would much much much prefer some kind of O-Ring style updated designs, something that progresses 3-3/4" but keeps the spirit of the vintage originals.

Really, the cardbacks for Retro just dont do it enough for me.
Glad I still have my 25th cardbacks. |
