HASBRO UNVEILS NEW AND EXPANDED LINE-UP OF G.I. JOE ACTION FIGURES AND VEHICLES

--2002 MARKS THE RETURN OF POPULAR "G.I. JOE VS. COBRA" SAGA--

Building on the upward swing the brand began enjoying in 1999 and 2000, the G.I. JOE action figure was one of the 2001 holiday season's hottest toys. Hasbro will unveil a new line-up of G.I. JOE action figures and vehicles for both kids and collectors at Toy Fair. With sales up 59 percent in 2001, a new generation of kids has clearly discovered the fantasy and action that only the G.I. JOE brand can offer.

The 2002 roster of G.I. JOE action figures and vehicles features the return of the legendary "G.I. JOE vs. COBRA" theme that launched the popular 3-3/4-inch figures in the 1980s; SOUND ATTACK vehicles with interactive battle sounds; COMBAT CONTROL G.I. JOE figures that can move in ways never seen before; and a line of figures to commemorate D-Day, the Army Rangers, Jimmy Doolittle, and Ernie Pyle, the famous World War II news correspondent.
