We have received a word that Monogram International has acquired license to manufacture G.I. Joe branded keyrings and other merchandise for the US market.
Monogram previously collaborated with Hasbro to manufacture such items for My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, Transformers and Dungeons & Dragons franchises.
Judging by the previous products which came by, we can expect to see keyrings, bank busts and PVC figurines.
It is likely that the characters will be based off on the G.I. Joe: Classified designs.
You can check some samples from other franchises, after the jump.

Man, this really seems like it's the start of a major push to have Joe become relevant again. Why oh why wouldn't they have a cartoon and some video games in the works to seal the deal?
And no, the free-to-play cash grab mobile game doesn't really count.

Strangely enough, I might actually buy a couple of key rings if they actually make some. Depends on the design, of course, but trinkets like that can make good little "no reason" gifts for the kiddos.

Thanks for the update SO!!! This is good that Hasbro is getting the Joe name out again. I was afraid I'd have to go to a Malaysian water park to see anything Joe related.

Sounds cool!
Just so you folks know, monograms key rings are usually in blind bags and are often characters in the squat “Funko POP” style
