You know what I'm curiuos about? How they can't figure out how to go on ebay, buy a vintage figure and make a mold from him! GTG Customs and Alyoshas customs aren't multimillion dollar companies and they can make replacement mold parts! Hasbro is full of shit! It wouldn't take that much, except for the fact that they won't be an overnight multimillion dollar sucess, so if it doesn't insure that Hasbro execs are up to their eyeballs in Benz's and Bahamian Vactions, screw it!

Yeah, they'll put it on the collectors sites, and on HAsbro.com but will you see any TV commercials about it? nope. Any media coverage? Nope! Any she-bang like they had when the line launched 25 years ago? Nope, then they'll use the crappy sales as a reason to cancel the line. If they don't put the stuff in TRU or WalMart, it will go the way of DTC!
I'll say it now;

their lives so capitalistic greedy conglomerate
toy manufacturers could drive sports cars and
send their kids to private schools.
