You mean to tell me if these are a total success .. and a complete wipeout hasbro are going to ignore that? ... I honestly don't think so.. because it would be a winning formula for them.. just because they hold Transformers and Star Wars in high regard it doesnt mean to say they will kill off other money making opportunities..

I'd like to think if these are a huge success hasbro will act on it and follow up with some vehicles a second set of figures in 2008 and with that a relaunch in conjunction with the cartoon or comic.


As I pretty much said, I think if theres to be any future for the 3 and 3/4 inch line it will depend on sales of the 25th anniv line. Obviously if it does well, we stand a better chance of more new Joes.

With the lack of Joes in the past few years and the nature of the DTC line, it's important these figures sell well... That is my feeling... If not, I think the 3 and 3/4 inch line will be done with.
