modern Hasbro AT GI Joes this year??

[Brown Bear]

I'd like to see Intruder re-released.

I'd like to see Intruder re-released.

i believe the INTRUDER didn't surive the test of time very well so an reissue would be pretty cool as i never had one back in the day but i'd rather see BULLETMAN reissued

[Werewolf]

I'd love to see the Super Joes reissued. Most of those have fallen apart. Heck, probably all of them by now.

[tmthor]

Yes I want a Super Joe
actualy I want Darkon Cause he's part man part monster
& i imagine his orange eyes seeing right thruogh me

[thunderbolt]

hopefully XMas will clear out the glut of horrible movie figures and pave the way for something different.

The chanves of seeing BM, the Intruders or SuperJoe are slim. This would mean new body molds which is doubtful. The other guys were easy because Hasbro already had the reissue bodies made up. Never say never... I'd love to get muscle body Joes but I just can't see it unless Hasbro sees money in it.

[Bionic Joe]

^^that plus the fact they weren't the greatest selling figures back when they came out so i don't see them being high on the list to be reissued and i wouldn't want to see the nuscle body reissued as i never cared for them and i'd rather see a BM reissued on the standard body which i think true collectors will bw happy as it would make it very easy to tell them appart

My first Joe was an Eagke Eye MB so I'm partial to them myself. BM would look mighty scrawny on the old style body I think.

howabout the Superjoes at 12 inch size? If Hasbro were to do 9 inch SuperJoes they have a current body that wouldn't require any new tooling.

8 in format for GIJE has failed twice (super joe and sigma six) I don't think has any idea to dip into that pool again soon

I never had an eagle eye muscle body Joe my last Joe was MIKE POWER which i really liked and even today he's still one of my favorites my first Joe was a hard hands land adventurer that came in the mummy's tomb set which i got for christmas 73,

Sigma Six failed for a lot of reasons. Cancelling and replacing the beloved 12 inch and 3 3/4 inch lines with Sigma Six was an epic failure. Releasing the Sigma Six figures along with the other scales would have probably faired far better. There was also the untraditional anime look to figures which was not exactly popular with GI JOE fans and collectors.

Besides we are talking about limited reissues like the Walmart 12 inchers. Not an additional competing line. In my opinion, The Super JOEs are an important part of GI JOE history that needs to be preserved because very soon nothing will be left of them but memories and broken parts.

yes BUT the walmart release had ZERO production prep costs for hasbro. By the time they did it they had been doing reissues of 12" (including AT stuff) for 10 years so they had molds ready, factories to do the clothes, assem bly lines for the dolls everything. all they had to do was assign a production number. Superjoe would require either reusing sigma six designs (UGHHH), a complete recreation of the originals (I wonder of the molds even exist anymore), or some kind of half hearted recreation (like CLassic collection was) and superjoe was such a niche line for such a short period I doubt there is enough interest outside hardcorp collectors to warrant even a limited release via GIJCC (and imagine how much that would cost)

Hasbro doesn't want to bring back Super Joe, I'd love it if they did but it's the era of Joe nobody remembers.

That's a real shame. I'd hate to see that era of GI JOE get lost to time.
