BFTB Q AND A with THE GI JOE CONVENTION

[jamarmiller]

I didnt say you were rude or the questions werent good but again the rules state you cant ask them anything that they havent revealed yet

how are you supposed to know? well I thought it was obvious, we already know about last years stuff and SOME OF THIS YEARS STUFF.

that is what we are limited too.

just for the record this is what they have revealed or we know about

last years BLADES and Hawk
Last Years Comic
This years exclusives, Black Major, Red Torch, Red Shadow Trooper, The question about flint is AF themed so that is allowed.


You werent asking them about Blades or Hawk, so the problem is you were asking them about more SAF stuff and that is something that they havent revealed yet. WE cant ask about future plans that they haven't told us already, NOT IN THIS Q AND A. I thought my first post was very clear about that.

Its pretty obvious at least to me what has been revealed and not revealed, I feel this site has covered everything they have revealed. So Again your question was asking what they might or might not do, and again we cant ask them that, Id love to ask them what all the con stuff is going to be or who is under the interrogator helmet but its not allowed according to the rules.

A few more questions now that we've seen Interrogator:


1) Does Interrogator's weapons give clues to who he is or are they clues to this year's storyline?

2) Why is there no blue paint apps on Interrogator's chest or legs? The mold has a perfect place for it and it would be yet one more nod to the original who had these blue paint applications.

Here are the questions for the next next round ,so far ,( just keeping up with all the questions LOL ) need one more ! for the next round

1) Is Flint's paint scheme a homage to the Z-Force uniform?

2) Does Interrogator's weapons give clues to who he is or are they clues to this year's storyline?

3) Why is there no blue paint apps on Interrogator's chest or legs? The mold has a perfect place for it and it would be yet one more nod to the original who had these blue paint applications.

4) ???????????????????

[Sundance]

will there be a vehicle this year?

[jamarmiller]

Here are some guidelines :

Rules:
1. Questions cannot be about anything they havent revealed yet ( as you will see from the first four answers, they wont answer them )
2. Questions have to be on either : last years AF themed exclusives (or the comic from last year ) or this years stuff ( that has been revealed )

How about something about the creative process?

"we here at bftb are intrigued about the creative process. How far in advance is the subject matter agreed? Do you have full freedom to select a subject matter before submitting it to hasbro for outline approval? Once the concept etc is approved is it then a matter of producing a prototype for hasbros final approval?"

obviously that's several questions, so might be better for us to refine them a little first?

Could we refine these a little for submission Jamar? Or the one about 'which part is it that caused problems and needed retooling several times?'. Dont know why I'm so interested in that really - they might just end up saying "the Black Major's left leg" or something!

Here's another question.

Why are the new Red Shadows done as O-rings instead of the 25th style sculpt? Is it to help them blend in with the original toyline?
