Is Hasbro going to produce and sell a big "Pit" playset for the movie?

Mod Edit: This subject line is misleading. For the benefit of all involved, I put in a question mark.

Honestly, I'd be a little surprised. Something like the Millennium Falcon is one thing, which has a huge reputation. But something on the order of a movie-based G.I.Joe HQ, which doesn't have any real prior basis, would probably be a bit much for most stores to consider stocking. Just my opinion on the matter. I've honestly never been that impressed with any prior G.I.Joe headquarters, and both the comic and the TV series have tended to treat them as remote bases and outposts.

Hasbro is producing a Pit toy for the movie with a reported MSRP of $99.99 as discovered in Wal-Mart's computer about 2 weeks ago.

I think this thread title requires a question mark instead of an exclamation point.

Probably It'll be a Mobile Command Center repainted :-(

I've been looking at getting an MCC, but at twice the price of one on the secondary market, nah.

A repainted Mobile Command Center would be cool. The biggest disappointment I had about the reissue a few years ago is it was the same color as the first one, basically.

But $100 cool?! Think I'll wait for a sale or a clearance, thanks. But I'm imagining a BLACK Mobile Command Center. However overused that color is going to me in this movie, that could be impressive.

I suspect Toy Fair is going to bring us a bunch of new stuff to look forward to.

This had better be a brand new base.
I have the MCC, and the only reason I use it is because I don't have another base.
