There is only meant to be 100 of these made. I wonder could we get something like that done for blood for the baron.

it didn't. Canada had repackaged GI Joe like Europe. Those are con exclusives like the Crimson Guard pack or the Dreadnoks they did a while back.

with the movie coming out, I think there is no better time for a UK convention but it needs to combine the ACTION MAN fans and Action Force and GI JOE fans
the US GI JOE convention does this, they have the 12 inch joe and the 3 and 3 /4 size joe at the same convention
Transformer conventions have also struggled in the UK but I even think combining it with TRANSFORMERS is the way to go at least in the beginning
TRANSFORCE would be the perfect title IMVHO ( see member TRANSFORCE )
and with Hasbro Canada helping the canuck con, then perhaps they would help us with this con as well
we could get our RED SHADOWS finally done!

I'm sure something could be worked out, although I would be highly surprised if Hasbro UK would offer an exclusive, it was hard enough for them to agree to a convention exclusive in 2007 for an official Lucasfilm event for Habro's No1 selling toyline
Even without that though, I'm sure an exclusive could be pulled off by repackaging existing products.
