This will be the last Q & A for 08, so if there is something you want to know, now is the time to ask. The deadline is on Monday the 17th and the answers will be sent back on December the 1st. Let's all think of some good questions. Once the questions are posted, let's all check back and decide together on which ones to send in to please the most people.

I'm sure I can think of many question myself, but since I'm going to be sending them in i won't, but I do have two questions.
(1)Will we be getting many more updated figures that are more accurate to who they are supposed to be? By this I mean any like the new updated comic pack beach head?
(2)Although you cannot confirm this, is there a chance that we may see more Oktober Guard figures? Possible a 5 pack or at least Horror show and Diana. If not Oktober Guard is there a chance of any 7 pack extreme conditions for the Joe team.

The usual please can we have some o-ring figures even if they are online exclusives, as long as they weren't overely priced and were not heavily over-used molds they cold make some money using molds they already have and give people who enjoy these figures a cheaper alternative to convention figures

I 2nd this as a question.If they would do another release of something like the TRU Cobra Infantry 6-Pack,it would sell out Faster than they could make them,just like the first run did!There are alot of O-Ring molds they could use as DTC only Figures,and how about an Arctic 6-Pack using the V-1 Snow Serpent mold.I really don't think they would have a problem selling them,if they would just give it a try...

The 1st run was underproduced. Hasbro, for some reason, didn't think they'd sell AND worse yet, they just plain never wanted to do it. They'd rather push a mold they can try and get their money back on, like... Oh... Hawk's mold into Falcon or the use of molds we tend to hate.
Look at 25A. They KEEP on using the 25A Duke arms, if that makes any sense! They know they suck. They've already built NEW arms... but man... Anyway...
I thought it was in the last Q&A there was talk of doing some classic ARAH type bodies which I ASSumed meant o-ring. Kinda like how Hasbro was busy doing bastard sculpts and still doing ARAH for comic packs and 6-packs. So with the new body type... They could do special packs with o-rings but I still see that as a step backwards.

Would you consider releasing 25A Accessory Packs? (Same idea as the 80's but no weird colors colors.)

I feel your pain as well Dustin, but I know better than to even ask anymore.

we didnt really get a lot of questions this time around, i guess everyone is losing interest in the same answers. anyhow, i picked the questions, actually put them together where we got to ask them all in 5 questions. i hope these are alright with everyone as i have to send them tonight because i will not have time the rest of the week and the deadline is monday.
1) Will we be getting many more updated figures that are more accurate to who they are supposed to be? By this I mean any like the new updated comic pack beach head?
2) Although you cannot confirm this, is there a chance that we may see more Oktober Guard figures? Possible a 5 pack or at least Horror show and Diana. If not Oktober Guard is there a chance of any 7 pack extreme conditions for the Joe team, we love the troop packs.
3) Can we please have some o-ring figures even if they are online exclusives, as long as they weren't overely priced and were not heavily over-used molds they cold make some money using molds they already have and give people who enjoy these figures a cheaper alternative to convention figures
guiltridden and everyone else
4) Will we see any more troop building sets like that of the Crimson guard, Greenshirts, and Cobra Nightwatch (specifically Cobra Blueshirts and Infantry Vipers)?
lowjacked
5) With the success of the line and the movie around the cornor, is there now a possibility of getting some of the larger vehicles and playsets? Maybe a Joe Base, Flagg or Cobra Terror Dome, or at least some 25th accessory packs?
