The Allspark fills us in on the occurrences of Hasbro's web cast that occurred on the afternoon of November 5. We first told you that a webcast was going to occur, and here's a summary courtesy of NightViper over at the Allspark..

For those that listened into the four-hour Hasbro Investor Relations Webcast, you already know that it focused more on facts and figures than, well, action figures. Wacky investors. However, there was some Transformers-related news to grab onto:

- 2010 will bring with it a Transformers promotion called "Hunt for the Decepticons"
- Hasbro has acquired the Micronauts ("Microman" in Japan) brand and look forward to including its rich story in various media forms
- Advertising for the new JV (joint venture) Network with Discovery will begin in February
- 10-12 new programs are currently in production for JV Network
- The only new program they could comment on was My Little Pony. Lauren Faust of Power Puff Girls and Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends will head up the MLP media.
- Robert Orci and Alex Kurtzman are among those writing for Hasbro Studios media

If you missed the broadcast, you can listen to the broadcast here.

I didn't really expect much from this.

Looks like I was right.

May not be that big a deal, they could be working on a Visionaries, Robotix, or Jem series, heck it could be a new Rock Lords shows for all we know right now.
