Hasbro's 3rd G.I. JOE Q&A: The Answers! Posted by Curto on August 20, 2007 at 09:33 AM CST: As part of Hasbro's bi-monthly Q&A session, Cool Toy Review passed on 5 of your burning questions and now we've got the answers for you.
Cool Toy Review: Will there be more variations such as Snake Eyes' two different wolves? Will variations be limited to a recoloring of accessories, like two colors for Shipwreck's parrot, or will they be something more substantial that actually enhances the figures, maybe Night/Tiger Force versions?
Hasbro: Check out Wave 3 for a couple more variants. Changes could be subtle or whole color changes...we really want to personalize it by figure.
Cool Toy Review: Can we get re-releases of the USS Flagg and Terror Drome (With Firebat) ? Please...pretty please?
Hasbro: At this time there are no plans to re-release the Terror Drome or USS Flagg.
Cool Toy Review: Will vehicle drivers (such as the grey painted Cobra Officer for the Stinger-hint hint) be a part of the 25th anniversary line?
Hasbro: Check out the Cobra Legions 5 pack and you will be very happy.
Cool Toy Review: What are they going to do about the quality of the card backs on single Joes? I've seen the contents of three cases on different occasions and the cards are always warped or creased. For those who collect MOMC this is very frustrating. I know with such a large card relative to figure bubble that this is a possibility, but it never happened like this when they sold Joes 25 years ago.
Hasbro: We hear your comments and have already made a change in the quality of the cardstock for future waves. There will be a thicker card back which will solve this problem.
Cool Toy Review: There has been a huge rumor going around about the Iron Grenadier "Blade" Destro in the works. Can this be officially confirmed by Hasbro? I think that it is just speculation right now.
Hasbro: This rumor will be officially confirmed or denied at JoeCon when we show the Wave 1 2008 single figures and you can see for yourself what figures are coming.
