FIGS: With the international collection logo on the new Ninja Ku Leader Storm Shadow, can we expect more internationally-themed figures in coming waves?

HASBRO: There may be one or two more down the line, but not in 2008.

One thing which I don't get, why are US fans pushing to get a new Quarrel, Steeler, Red Laser etc. and not Eagle, Skip, Black Major etc. straight-arm characters? Obviously any new releases will have full articulation, so as far as I'm concerned my GI Joe repaint figures are the bottom of the queue. I'd far rather an articulated Baron Ironblood than another Blades or Gaucho.

Probably because they are easy repaints. Also we've already had Scarlett released 3 times not to mention the many releases of Snake Eyes. Hasbro would more likely do repaints before making new molds for new characters. I would also like to have the original & show up in updated forms. Does Hasbro own their copyrights? That could also be a reason repaints would be done first.
