They said there are 8 waves of singles this year. If the list from the repaint wave holds the last couple of waves will be:
2008 Wave 6 (wave 10) Duke Tiger Force Cobra Wraith Mutt & Junkyard Cobra Para-Vipers Cobra Bazooka Trooper Cobra Croc Master 2008 Wave 7 (wave 11) Pilot Scarlett Specialist Trakker Sgt. Airborne Cobra Eel Swamp Zartan Flint in Cobra gear 2008 Wave 8 (wave 12) Hall of Heroes repaints That's it for singles then. Hopefully, the exclusives and 2packs will give us a few more classic characters. I know there was a Walmart list with a few more figures, like the Omega Force stuff. Joe Con should be interesting this year.

You are speaking for me too. This movie which so many welcomed is going to kill this line and I am pissed. It makes no sense what they are doing. Is there really that much more money to made in a quick movie themed cash grab as opposed to collector loyalty over the long haul?
Oddly enough.... I actually do!

well hopefully the movie line isnt going to be a actors face on the joe with a classic name which would suck ass. im pissed that hasbro does crap like this. its all about money and not about keeping the toy as it should be.
thats why great things get ruined for die hard collectors is because of money and im so sick of it. we finally get a good thing and hasbro is going to try and screw us all out of it. hopefully the movie line wont be as bad as we all fear. the classic artwork on the card is important to moc collectors. only time will tell. for now enjoy what you have and what is to come. |

From the JBL Q&A:
4) We saw the Cobra Commander Comic Con exclusive, but we can't see his articulation because he's behind a podium. Does he have full GIJOE 25th anniversary articulation (ie: ball-jointed hips), or does he have more "Indiana Jones/Star Wars" articulation? This figure has an Indy/SW articulation. The only way to do this figure was to share the tooling with Indy; but we accepted the change in style because the figure rocks and he was designed to stand at a podium so his waist articulation is less important. WTF?!? I thought Hasbro said this was an all-new never before used 25th-style sculpt? I really don't want a Indy/SW style fig with a CC head. That is really lame. Especially the excuse that he is standing behind a podium. So much for my theory of getting the Twins in this sculpt down the road. |

I just hope the exclusives are more readily available around here. I went through a lot to get 1 of each vehicle from Target. Of course, this is assuming there is anything I want among them.

As with others I'm concerned with this quote from Hasbro.

Hold on...
HASBRO AM KILLING TEH LEIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111111111 Imagine a giant rolleyes smiley here. If so many of you are leaving, I'd be happy to take your collections off of your hands. Obviously if Hasbro sucks so badly, you won't miss them will you? Saying that the movie WILL kill the 25th stuff is really ridiculous. No one here is a Hasbro employee, and so saying that its GOING to kill it, is ridiculous... but I can't stop people from complaining, but at least I can comment on how ridiculous people sound.
