Why doesn't Hasbro give GI Joe the same attention that it gives to Star Wars and Transformers?

Why Don't we have the same amount of merchandise floating out there at EVERY store?

I know this one is kind of skirting the rules when will X toy... But we haven't heard anything on if this thing is even going to be released anymore.

Keep your eyes peeled at Ross, Marshalls and TJ Maxx

1) Is there any chance we can look foward to seeing 3.75 scale figures based on real world troops in say like a multi pack format as a tribute to the original 12 inch line ?
2) Are things going well with the design of the new movie figures?

1A: They will definitely be released in Canada at the end of 2011 and into early 2012. The figures will be available at Wal-Mart, Toys 'R Us & Zellers. The vehicles will be available at Wal-Mart. We hope you find them!

Thank you for a legit answer this time with a time line, much appreciated Hasbro!

3) The 30th Anniversary line features figures of Renegades characters who didn't appear much in the show(Air Tight, Law and Order for example), compared to Destro, Roadblock and The Baroness. We realize that tooling could've been a cost issue, especially since Roadblock would've required a bigger body. Are characters with unique tooling viable for upcoming 7 packs?
3A: You are correct! We had to work very hard to manage costs within in the 20th Anniversary line which required us to make some tough decisions on figure choices and tooling usage.The 2012 movie line will use some new tooling in order to provide more movie accuracy. There are currently no plans for additional 7-packs in 2012.

Good see an answer here, thanks for that Shin! Figured it would be down to costs, but still disappointed there's no commitment to seeing the other Renegade characters in toy form soon. Guess they're gearing up for the next movie now...

I hope they find a place for the cycle armors. I want at least 2 of them, probably 3.
2 to get Renegades cobra commander full mask heads, and one to get the zombie-viper helmet.

I'm also sad for no Renegades Baroness or Jinx. They could have used the same lower arms even. Then Jynx would just need Wraith armor and the zombie viper helmet. and baroness could have been done with a different coated female body that can be reused for other stuff later. Or just a coat piece that goes over the Scarlet body similiar to how cobra commanders coat skirt works.
