Just in from UK Toy Fair 2012 comes word that there will be no GI Joe toys for the UK this summer. HISS Tank boards member DarkHorse was in attendance and brought us the bad news today. Support for GI Joe internationally has dwindled ever since the Rise Of Cobra line underperformed at overseas retail.

DarkHorse says
Just got back from the U.K. Toyfair. Hasbro said they aren't releasing any Joe product at retail over here for the movie.
FUCK HASBRO. >:-(
OSOK says
UK and michigan have alot in common
Cobra Terrorist says
Man....nothing at ALL? I guess they're not expecting much from this toyline.
Lody says
So.......what did they show???

tuan_tran73 says
Why is it different than US?
Sector_15 says
That's really poor. It sucks.
Cobra80 says
I know the typical answer is inflation, but if these figures do take a big drop in quality, shouldn't their be a slight drop in price? Or why not have hasbro go back to 1980s Kenner articulation and then charge $10-$12 each
DarkHorse says
I honestly think they don't give a crap. Mattel started a shit trend with their Green Lantern shit and it seems as if Hasbro are following suit.
samantha says
That doesn't sound good for Joe collectors in the UK.
