No wonder why most of the Hasbro lines got a whole bunch of good stuff added to their 08' line ups.
All of them schedualed for the second half of the year no less, leaving the new boss just enough time to cancel them!

I don't know if any of thats true, it's just what I'd do, cause you know, I'm a prick!
Anyhow, note to the new guy, knock off all the friggin repaints!!!

NICE...
Although it doesn't mean much yet,
that's the positive vibe I wanted to hear.

2 points,
Firstly, it does make a lot of sense now. With CEO stepping down, he did the next guy a solid if he did indeed choose to push back releases to the fall. Thus the new guys first quarter looks great and the shareholders will love him.
Secondly, CEOs generally don't decide to screw around with whether or not certain produicts are released. Hasbro has a ton of marketing and research groups who pretty much make that call. All the CEO really does when it copmes to that area of business is sign off on the papaerwork.
