Ask Hasbro (GI Joe) – 1/15/10

Here’s the latest Q&A with the Hasbro JOE team, with questions submitted by Ray.  Thanks, guys!

1. Have you ever considered doing ROC repaints based on original toy colors?  I’ve seen some really cool customs where people painted ROC Armor Duke and Scarlet with v1 toy colors, and always thought those would be cool repaints to get.

We have no plans for this at present, sorry.

2. Why has there never been straight v1 colors on vintage figures when you re-issue them? It seems like the v1 color schemes are the most popular and iconic. Plus being vintage the originals are getting pretty old so it’d be nice to have high quality ones.

We have no plans for this at present but will look into it as possible exclusives.

3. How many new Waves of POC do you plan on showing at Toy Fair?

We will reveal several waves of the fall Pursuit of Cobra line.
