Come on, we can't be taken seriously if we can't even ask straightforward, sensical questions.......

Erm, my question was just meant as a joke, I didn't intend (or expect) that it would be sent to Hasbro. My apologies......

Flint Lady 'J's #1 Man!! Offline --> Posts: 7,849 --> Join Date: Dec 2006	OK, I got some questions: 1. Being that this is the 25th Anniversary of ARAH, why aren't the Sunbow Cartoons being Released? 2. Why are Waves 2 & 3 so are to find in the stores on the east coast, concidering Hasbro's Corporate Office is in RI? 3. Is the New Crotch going to be applied to all the waves of figures & is this why we're not seeing waves 2 & 3 in the stores? 4. Why is HasbroToyShop always out of stock of all the 25th figures, namely waves 2 & 3? 5. Will we be seeing any of the following figures in the near future: General Colton (G.I. JOE) Clutch, Mutt & Junkyard, Alpine, Bazooka, Tomax & Xamot, Law & Order, Dr. Mindbender, Zarana and Covergirl? __________________ Coming Soon: G.I. JOE: Project "Z" and in production G.I.

Da Talent That Light Dude Offline --> Posts: 4,845 --> Join Date: Sep 2007	I thought of two more... 1.Ask them if there creative team ever comes to joedios.com 2. How do they decide on what products and prototypes they put into production, for instance, test groups, surveys, etc. and how can you volunteer to be a part of it? __________________ All my customs in one place....Da Talent's Customs

2 very, very good questions. especially the second. why dont we do a list of the Q's and then have a vote on which ones to send?

General Scarlett Hell hath no fury.... Offline --> Posts: 7,646 --> Join Date: Dec 2006	The Questions so far.... Alright, here is the list of legitimate questions that have been put up so far. Remember that we can only send 5, so let's try and find the 5 that will hopefully yield some concrete answers..... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ -Will there ever be another mail away figure after 25th A Doc? -Can we get a Doc without spending $60 to $100 on other products? -Are there any vehicles planned after the initial assortment? (Hiss, Striker, Shark)? -Are you gonna develop bare skin lower arms, or is every character with short sleeves gonna have them rolled down their forearm like Duke? -Will they retooling the vehicles so they can fit the current figures? -Will the fans see characters like Falcon, Tunnel Rat and the Alley Viper in the near future? -We have seen the release of a new wave of figures almost every month. Keeping in mind that every wave includes aproximately from 5 to 9 figures (if we include comic packs) willl next year's releases be the same, and reach the score of 60+ releases, or will there be a more reasonable timing? -Will the first 25th waves be put back into circulation as many sold out leaving a lot of collectors without a chance to buy any? -Is the 25th design written in stone, or is there a chance that the future will bring about 25th figures which will be more interchangeable with the classic design so as to make customizing possible with ARAH and the 25th? -Being that this is the 25th Anniversary of ARAH, why aren't the Sunbow Cartoons being Released? -Why are Waves 2 & 3 so are to find in the stores on the east coast, concidering Hasbro's Corporate Office is in RI? -Is the New Crotch going to be applied to all the waves of figures & is this why we're not seeing waves 2 & 3 in the stores? -Why is HasbroToyShop always out of stock of all the 25th figures, namely waves 2 & 3? -Will we be seeing any of the follwing figures in the near future: General Colton (G.I. JOE) Clutch, Mutt & Junkyard, Alpine, Bazooka, Tomax & Xamot, Law & Order, Dr. Mindbender, Zarana and Covergirl? -Is there a creative team ever comes to joedios.com? -How is the decision made on what products and prototypes they put into production, for instance, test groups, surveys, etc. and how can you volunteer to be a part of it? __________________ Non illigitamus carborundum~Vos mos non effrego mihi Coming soon: 'JoeSpecialOps'

Why do these guys even collect up questions, when like you say there "...Not Going to Change Anyway" .

They're being lazy and they never listen anyway.

Heck, go with the 5 Lehsreh picked! Those are blunt, well asked and hard questions that I think warrant an honest reply from Hasbro! Now, will they answer those? hmmmmmm........................
