I spoke at great lengths to then Head Kirk Bozigian many weeks ago on the many changes to both Hasbro and Lanard. and had a more civilized conversation, and He....a Joe Lifer, admits Hasbro can learn a lot from Lanard!

i understood you said it, but you provided nothing to prove it.
and what a spin on that quote. his words are: "they (lanard) studied what we did at hasbro, now we could learn from them" meaning "hasbro isnt doing what it used to, and it should because the competition has over taken ground it once had." not "we should sell toys exclusively with international partners and teacher supply websites." granted, hasbro exclusives with walmart arent working out, because hasbro currently is ran by imbeciles that dont have any idea what they have. |

Enjoy the video. This thread has gotten way off topic now, I'm happy to discuss products.
As for the 90s court case, go look it up 508, I'm multitasking over several places right now. As there are fans who are actually asking product related questions. The information is there go read the gung ho case, there are accompanied notes that have related links that will take you right to the battle corps case. For more info on all CORPS!

Accordingly, the magistrate's order is reversed and the matter is remanded for the entry of a preliminary injunction in favor of Hasbro and for such further proceedings as are necessary.

your pic is from during the 1988 which was the gung ho case... The Battle "Corps" case was a separate case, and Hasbro lost. Hasbro the following year was going to rebrand as battle rangers, but were warned through their legal partners not to as the risk for further damages would have permanently destroyed the brand (as "rangers" were suban- ban dai and were at risk for further legal ramifications)
And look 508 figured out the page edit options YAY!!! gold star for effort, but saying I'm full of it doesn't change anything, Hasbro Lost it's case, and rebranded as Sgt. Savage. FACT! The best part of this footnote is that despite Hasbro...there weren't any interruptions to the Lanard line, aside a simple name change. Hasbro underwent a complete redesign after the whole Battle Corps case. And then despite fan outcry Hasbro changed again to Nerf Carrying superhero wannabees for gijoe extreme. When that failed, it took several years before even a limited toys r us release (97-98) to be fair to Hasbro and to collectors JOE did go back to their roots with all new 1/6 scale JOES. Lanard Countered with Ultra Corps! Then a mini o ring revival, and poof JOE Vs. Cobra. Lanard to be fair looked at GIJOE returning, and switched out from o ring to t crotch, but kept on going. JOE gave spy troops, valor vs venom, and DTC then poof gone again. Lanard kept on going..... At modern retail fast forward to now, and Yep I mean Globally how much G.I.JOE assortments are there? 6- retro figures, a couple of vehicles. Classified doing alright Domestically Lanard over 150 Corps! products just last quarter Globally Including Ultra Corps. Domestically Counting Amazon,walmart dot com and local stores. well over 40 products in just the Corps! range. Including single cards, 2 packs, 3 packs, battle sets, Coyote chargers, first strike vehicles, Sams Club sets, And that was just the last 3 months of 2020. So debate all you like, Lanard gives more to Kids, and Fans Always at an incredible value, and without raising prices to absurdity! And MORE Products are coming to Domestic Retailers Full Assortment details and listings will be discussed AFTER Hong Kong Toyfair! For more info on all CORPS!

FACT
you still havent provided a single link about that case. FACT. i can still find many things that call the gijoe assortment BATTLE CORPS RANGERS and BATTLE RANGERS. FACT. i am not new to the internet. it should not be this difficult for me to find exactly what you're saying. i've multitasked all day at my real job and finding this information. i cant. because it doesnt exist. simply searching in google "lanard sues hasbro" DOESNT give me that result. at all. AFTER THE FACT you cant make a military toy line, and get gruffy because another military toyline calls it CORPS. one branch of our armed services is called the marine CORPS. try again.

Actually No, you can if you look, and this has been covered outside of hisstank. Including at Multiple JOECONS.
yeah, you can find art on what joe had planned with battle rangers, but it was axed due to mounting concerns on Hasbro's Management staff and their legal team on not persuing the Ranger branding, after losing the battle "Corps" branding. The preceding are attached to several Documents, and yes, if you looked you'd found it. The Gung Ho brand was out for a while before hasbro sued, and battle corps did go to court, the case is on file. you argued that... YOU Can't find the sky strike, And shown it was indeed available through Sam's Club, and through Go Stores, including Go toys as well as can be ordered through mr toys and shipped worldwide. YOU... Can't find the gryphon, And Shown it was indeed Available through UStoys/Constructive playthings, and Oceal State Job Lot, and HEB YOU Can't..... seems to be a trend. I have provided information, and Facts. I've helped collectors, fans, and kids across multiple platforms find products, and assisted friends and forum members in getting products. You come here daily and I do enjoy our little back and forth, as debate and different points of view on brands are perfectly acceptable, but should try to be a bit more positive, and I'm sorry if finding something is difficult for you, I've known about this court case since it happened in the 90's, as it made news, Multiple printed media covered it, as did some news stations, it was a big headline and Hasbro quickly spun the news by their merger with Kenner. And spun a media campaign about Star Wars. ( don't get me started on how worthless 90s power of the force are, that's a whole other conversation). For more info on all CORPS!

With all due respect The Corps! from it's inception is an imitation of Hasbro's GI JOE ARAH era line - the scale, figure construction, military theme, packaging - it's all a rip off of ARAH. When I saw that leaked Whispering Willie picture - I immediately thought of the Buzz Boar not to mention the figure himself is a Dreadknok rip-off. S.T.A.R. Force = Star Brigade / Blade Warriors = Ninja Force etc.
I give Lanard all the credit in the world for sticking with the 3 3/4"-4" scale after Hasbro abandoned the line in 94 - they filled a niche and got pretty creative with their different themes in the late 90s/early 2000s - I think they had construction, police, EMS, firefighter figures and vehicles. Their licensing model and making affordable toys in the scale is admirable but the issues with locating some of the cooler The Corps! toys seems to fall on deaf ears. The Gryphon and Sky Strike (no comment ) are pretty damn near impossible to land at a brick & mortar here in the US. |
