Each month we submit 5 reader-generated questions to the Hasbro design team for G.I.Joe. Here is the latest batch of questions and answers for October:

TNI: Will Snake Eyes v.2 of the 25th Anniversary line receive the same crotch re-tooling as Stalker? Will we see a painted black version of Snake Eyes v.2 as we have with version 1?

Hasbro: The plan is to use the updated Snake Eyes body in 2008 and the black V2 Snake Eyes is in Wave 4 2007.


TNI: Will Major Bludd and Wild Bill also be included with Battle Armor Cobra Commander, Rock N' Roll, and Lt. Torpedo for Wave 6?

Hasbro: No, Major Bludd and Wild Bill were pushed back to Wave 3 of 2008. When you see the results, you will agree it was worth the wait.


TNI: When can we expect an announcment on the future of the Comic license?

Hasbro: We are hoping to have an annoucement early in the new year.


TNI: What, if anything, can Hasbro do about increasing availability of the 25th Anniversary figures to consumers?

Hasbro: Hasbro is addressing this by increasing the production runs based on the early success of 25th anniversary.

TNI: It's almost 2008. What can you tell us about new vehicles for the 25th Anniversary line? Will we see any beyond the three Target exclusives shown at Joe Con, and if so will they be re-released RAH vehicles, new molds, or a mixture of both?

Hasbro: We are currently exploring vehicle initiatives and will have official news to share at Toy Fair in February.
