I would like to ask if there is a lot of retailer support for the Joe line and if the Pursuit of Cobra figures and vehicles are going to be available to Canadians.

With the current sales going on in major retail stores across Canada, will there be a new, lower price point for G.I. Joe figures when the P.O.C. line comes out?

Will we see any new 12 inch figures for G.I. Joe?

With so many of the R.O.C. characters done in black including the army builders, the demand didn't seem as high for these figures. Will Cobra be going back to it's more traditional blue colours?

With so much of the P.O.C. line being done in a winter theme, will we see and Canadian members added to the new line up?

In relation to the new shows announced for the HUB, it was recently stated at Botcon that because of Hasbro focus on Generations and HFTD, there are no plans for a toyline based on Transformers: Prime. Due to the current plans for POC, Is this the same for G.I.Joe, or will there be a toyline based around G.I.Joe Renegades?

At JoeCon Hasbro said Renegades toyline will launch in the fall of 2011.  And POC will end in 2011.

I think I asked about price somewhere else (ActionFigureNews) and got a non-answer.  Can't find the link though.

I'd like to thank Hasbro for:
1 - Alpha Wave 3
2 - These Q&As

And here's a question:

Can Hasbro bring a cool dio like the ones set up up JoeCon to CanJoeCon?
