ive saw this posted on more then one thread. im not saying their not, but does anyone really think they want GI Joe to fail so they can focus on star wars. i mean many have mentioned that the star wars figures are everywhere. heck, in my wal-mart theres like a whole section of the stuff that never sells. although there are collectors out there, it seems that only they buy star wars. no wonder, at 8 or 9 bucks a figure who beside the die hard would. they dont sell here. i would like to have some, but not gonna pay that. from what i know of what ive saw at my local stores and the guys who are now selling the ones they bought around here for 3$ each they seem to be losing money on star wars. maybe its not like that everywhere, just here. thats why when i see people say that hasbro wants GI Joe to fail makes me wonder. if the star wars and transformers arent selling and they cant keep the 25th on the shelves does anyone really think they want the line to fail? there wasnt any joes a few months ago and the star wars still didnt sell, i can take some pics of the section of my wal-mart and show you. they've been there for a year now collecting dust.not saying anything here, just wanting to know if people are using that as an example or is that what so many really think.
