What? I can't believe they don't transform. Whaaa.

1) The UK and Ireland don't seem to be getting any of the newer released lines, specifically any of the Hasbro released versions of the Masterpiece line, anything after Animated Shockwave and Universe Wave 4 and later. Why is this, and are there plans for a wider release of the later waves in the UK and Ireland?

2) What's next on the series agenda for Transformers? Will it be another Robots in Disguise style stop-gap measure, or is there another Western series in the works?

3) Will we be seeing toys of the remaining Starscream clones from Animated, Ramjet and Slipstream?

How much involvement does Hasbro have int Japanese-only TF releases such as BinalTech: Alternity and Device Label?

Are there plans to release toys from the video game. The designs for Protectobot, Arialbot and Seeker are very impressive and would make aesome toys.

As a previous post said;

Are we going to see any Premium repaints of the ROTF line? (Deluxe/Voyager/Leader) If so, which models? Because it already seems that Sideways and Sideswipe (and Bumblebee, actually) are Premium-esque already. I want to get the best quality figures that resembles the screen incarnations as much as possible.

Also, on the subject of accuracy, will we be seeing more remolds (like Leader Optimus Prime and Voyager Starscream) of certain figures from both films (like Ratchet and Jazz), and Leader-sized versions of the Decepticons that are supposed to be Leader-sized, to go with Optimus and Megatron (like Blackout, Bonecrusher, Starscream, Soundwave and The Fallen)? :-B

Greatly appreciated if any of my burning questions can be answered :grin:

I've read that Universe might continue in 2010, and the characters from animated which di not make it into the toy production will be produced in the universe line. Does this mean that characters, like perceptor will be done with his animated alt mode rather than his original G1 mode?

I've read also that if the line continues, we might see Soundwave and Beast Wars Rhinox. Are these 2 confirmd and are than any others which we should expect?

In a previous Q/A session I asked whether we should see any future female bot in the universe lineand Hasbro's reply was that we should see Arcee in animated and ROTF and kudos for those figures. More kudos go for the Pretender Alice from the movie. With reference to the Universe line, will we be seeing any fem-bots, Pretenders, headmasters, more target masters and or any other characters which where Japanese and/or European exclusives?

My last question for now. A friend of mine, who owns a (the only) comic shop in my country told me that his sales of the universe line was better than the animated line. Would you agree? Which of these two lines made more sales?

1) Mattel is doing incredible business with their online store and the "Classics" He-Man toys. I understand that their cost saving measures (using the same molds and mixing and matching parts for figures) would not be applicable to Transformers... However, does Hasbro have any intention of setting up something similar? I would love to see the entire classics line re-released and sold online with better paint apps and a few new heads (Cliffjumper?). Sorta like the "special editions" you released a bit back.

by **thedistinctroom** » Tue Jul 07, 2009 7:52 pm

Why are the TF's pictured on the back of the boxes always mistransformed and/or have different paint applications than the actual toy?

I would think Hasbro would get it right by now but...

Thanks. :BOT2:

by **nemeos** » Tue Jul 07, 2009 10:49 pm

- seconding:

-will there be a voyager / leader class bonecrusher from the 2007 movie?

-will there be a leader / supreme class blackout/grindor ?

also:

- is the rumored HA ironhide coming?

- any chance for a more accurate combining ROTF optimus/jetfire in new class size?
for example, 2 new voyager molds, a new dx and voyager set, voyager + ultra, or 2 new ultra sized figures? Maybe even the combined design transforming into an unseen cybertronian vehicle or a new trailer for optimus?

- why has the ultra class size not been used for the movie lines?

Will we be seeing ROTF figures of the Hummer HX concept and Hummer H3T that were seen in the opening Shanghai scene? The ones that were in the NEST team?

Any chance of doing Human Alliance Figures for other TF ranges, for example Animated and Universe?

by **Ultra Markus** » Wed Jul 08, 2009 2:22 am

if the smokestacks on the optimus prime 25th anniversary edition is such a breakage issue that for safety you have to make them short, why the hell won't you make them long and flexible so they appear to be correct but won't break off when dropped, you make long bendy smokestacks for the movie primes surely they can be made for a reissue

by **JDubb** » Wed Jul 08, 2009 9:41 am

1.Are there any plans for a nation wide release of the 25th anniversary Soundwave after comic con 2009 has ended?

2.With the current release of the 25th anniversary G1 season 1 what other Transformers series (I.e. Beast Wars, R.I.D) do you plan on releasing?

3.Is there series you would like to focus more on creating in a future Transformers Universe toys wave or keep to picking a variety from each series?

:PRED:

Thanks

1. Could we ever see a series, once the movies are completed, that follows the transformers movies, but is in a seiries. That way, you could get a lot more story ideas and more characters in the movie universe.

2.Could we every expect to see a trailer for ROTF Optimus Prime, since we saw it in the comic book prequals.

3. I have heard rumors of a Leader class Starscream! Is this true,or false, and if not true... could we every see more leaders or other figures from ROTF in universe that couldn't be put into the line.

4. I also heard rumors that the three arcee sisters combined, and so did Skidz and Mudflap! Will we every see the third Arcee sister with instructions on how to transform to make a bigger robot? Plus, is it true that Skidz and Mudflap can transform together to form a bigger robot?

Thanks!!! :grin:

by **joeformer** » Wed Jul 08, 2009 12:10 pm

Now with the release of the human alliance sets. why not make a transformers/gijoe crossover. The figures can be the same size as the human alliance figures. huge seller!!!!! In fact they should have made the sigma six figures the size of the human alliance figures for the mission sets. Will there be human alliance figures sold by themelves. Like troop builder packs of marines? :grin:

About ROTF Springer: Both a Legends and Robot Heroes Springer have been released. Are there plans for other Springer toys? If there aren't any planned for future waves, were they previously canceled?
