Hasbro is trying to make June a big promotional month for G.I. Joe. They have dubbed it G.I. Joe June where they will be doing a live-stream and supposedly revealing new products. The problem with waiting until June for Bludd however is Target stores are showing in their systems that they are going to be getting the figure in store on or around May 19. The figure is a Cobra Island Target exclusive. Now some are hoping Hasbro will also release these on their Pulse website. We saw two weeks ago when they put the Cobra Island Firefly and Cobra Viper figures on the Pulse website, they both sold out in like 3 minutes. That was only making it available to just their premium members (Those willing to pay a $50 membership price) and supposedly 1 per-person.

So now we have a situation where it looks like Target stores will start getting the Bludd figures in their stockrooms any day now, but Hasbro is unwilling to give specific details about it until June. Even if Hasbro makes the official release date for the figure sometime in June, as we have seen in the past that never seems to hold once the figures arrive at these stores. Call me crazy but that sounds like a perfect receipt for more frustration in a long trend of frustrations with this line for the consumer.

The DCPI# for Bludd is 087-16-9916
