Toy News Online has announced that Hasbro's CEO, Brian Goldman, has agreed to a new contract.
“The agreement replaces a May 2008 contract, when Goldner was promoted to his current post from chief operating officer. His original employment contract was set to expire in May 2011.”

2014 = Golden Anniversary of G.I. Joe = 50 Years.
2014 = Goldner's new contract happens to culiminate on thee Half-a-Century landmark that will be G.I. Joe. That's a scary mere 3 years 8 months away. (Scratches head in worry). It takes an entire 2 years just to get product from idea to shelf. (Scratches head more in worry). I hope this cushy new contract will compell Goldner to work immediately (not now but right now!) in making one of Hasbro's greatest brands a major landmark event in 2014...soon!

Do you guys and gals think Goldner's new contract was adjusted to specifically extend to 2014 because it will be the year of Joe's Golden 50th anniversary?

I think Joe's anniversary had nothing to do with it at all.
That's good news. Hasbro is doing good things and making money and more profits each quarter. He's done a good job (regardless of if we personally like the decisions). I'd hate for a new CEO to take over and want to mess with things. That could really slow things down. No, Hasbro has alot of fires in the oven, especially with the new tv station, and just don't want a change in leadership to scare potential liscensors, studios and retailers away.

I'd like to think Joe may have some degree of influence on Goldner's decision to stay longer. Maybe on the business level it may not be, yet on the personal level, it perhaps just maybe might be. We may never know till Tankers mobilize and lay that question on the big CEO when he's at the conventions. Till then, here's a snippet of Joe's influence at least within Goldner's inner-child...

It was during the time when the U.S. space program was sending astronauts to the moon, and G.I. JOE really gave kids like me the opportunity to feel like we were part of the adventure and excitement that NASA was involved in back then. Of course, I still love G.I. JOE! Amazing Kids!
