Major Bludd: MIA?
“Oh Bludd, where art thou?”
Yesterday’s reveal of 2008 Wave 3 at both GIJoe.com and GIJoeClub.com made quite a splash in the online community. However, one figure was noticeably absent: Cobra’s resident “poet laureate”, Major Sebastian Bludd. According to Neal Hoffman, brand manager for GIJoe, the Australian poet was delayed until 2008 Wave 4 as Hasbro wanted him to be as perfect as possible.
So, fans of Bludd– don’t despair, Sebastian is coming. He’s just one month later than expected.
