They did, but it didn't go over so well. I forget the year but they put out a bunch of $10 figs at Wal-Mart...the 1970 AT lineup. This was not long after the massive 40th Anniversary series (rereleasing figs and accessories from 1964) ended. The whole 1/6th era ended then as well. Whew, what a TON of great 1/6th scale items we got from Hasbro and 3rd party creators. I was expecting a larger release from the OT era but the sales just weren't there. Plus, stores like Wal-Mart wanted no part of the "big box" items anymore. What I would have given for a perfect rerelease of the Mummy's Tomb set! Also, there was a very amazing line of repros done by the GI Joe collectors club. They were pricey but worth it, imo. Track those down if you can.
