JoeDios.com Forums - View Single Post - Hasbro's 2nd Round of Q & A Questions!!

I can already answer 1 of these. Now keep in mind, things can change at Hasbro.

The answer to Ender's ??? about new characters is YES. From what I've gathered (and Frank probably has seen the hints all over the JBL) is that once the 25th Anniversary stuff is over (we don't know how MANY waves there'll be), Hasbro WANTS to introduce new characters. They won't be part of the 25th line.

As well, we all know that Hasbro NEEDS to push the figures as best as they can, which will mean, lots of repaints. Sigma6 was based on this model too. However, w/ the 1/18th (or whatever it is), I have a feeling that we'll be getting different special teams. The poll on Hasbro about Tiger Force, Python Patrol, etc... Why would they even HINT at doing something like that if they weren't thinking about doing special team repaints already? (Which is lame, imo)

As for the screwed/vs glued thing, the answers are already stated w/ JBL's review on Scarlet. Sure, it's a prototype/1st model but I really doubt they'd suddenly change it up.
