If the only new ARAH molds we get are comic three packs, I'll be satisfied. Sure, maybe we'll still only get one Horrorshow-obscure figure for every fifty Snake-Eyeses, but they've done a fantastic job of capturing the looks of these figures on the page with the parts they have.

I think the few 'select' online sources will most likely be KBtoys.com and TRU.com

Hasbro has NEVER shown any of the smaller accounts (smalljoes, gijoehq, myself, etc) ANY respect when it comes to the toys - why start now?

I'm not too sure. Remember Wave 5 of the ARAH? Only a few online retailers got them, and KB and TRU were not amoung them.

I don't mind the continuation of the comic packs. Go for it. They're awesome.

But... the new Scrap-Iron? It's a cool figure, but why is he Scrap Iron? Why not give us new characters? I bought the Coil Crusher/Wild Bill pack because I wanted a Cobra villain who wasn't a generic troop.

Wow. G.I. Joe is back? I didn't see this coming.  

Because what we really need is another Zartan, another Zarana, another Scrap Iron and the 2nd repaint of a Hummer.

Let's see some new sculpts of new characters... Wave 1 of Spy Troops had so much promise. What happened?

At least we're getting more stuff.  

Most likely though scrap iron is there because they already had the mold produced before this hiatus stuff even came to the table.

But why does he have to be Scrap Iron? Why can't he be a new character named "Shrapnel" or something?

I think there's a place for nostalgia, but we've been sucking on nostalgia since the 1997 stuff. I really enjoy the new sculpts and new characters. We need more Blackouts and Barrell Rolls and fewer existing characters.

[Redmao]

they should do a Barrel Roll, Black out and Bomb strike three pack
We need a Scalpel in surgical suit or with a lab coat.

[Jon S.]

Or maybe they just make up some new characters?

I contacted Habro US and asked if Canadians would be able to order these figures. They gave me a very polite 'no'. They will only ship to US addresses. Unless Habro Canada decides to do a mail order site of their own we are out of luck.
crap.

[Spillspleen]

Well what about U.S. post office boxes?

I have a land address but its out of the way...but the post office box is real close...where did you send the e-mail to?

[Mastermind]

I'm sure US post boxes would be fine.
I sent the email to their consumer affairs department at
hasbro@custhelp.com

[Agent_Loop]

You should have given them a polite, "Hell, you better."
Oh well, good thing I have a friend that recently moved to Buffalo, but comes back home once or twice a month. He's my ticket to getting some of those mail order Stormys.

Somebody asked at this Star Wars Celebration in the States:

Shipping to Canada - not at first. Hopefully in 06.

Which means we are acrewed until further notice.
