Hasbro Q&A/November 2010: Question submission

From MediaWiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

MediaWiki participates in Hasbro's ongoing Question & Answer sessions. Our site will be allowed to submit two questions to Hasbro's Transformers team for answering. If you're a registered user at our site, please add your question below!

Some ground rules:

  1. Don't ask about hypothetical future product or if certain characters are going to come out in toyline X.
  2. Don't ask about financial numbers or corporate matters.
  3. Don't ask Hasbro why they suck so much to vindicate your personal grudge.
  4. Don't ask Hasbro to badmouth one of their licensees to vindicate your personal grudge.

But questions about current or past product are pretty great! Those kinds of answers will result in the best and most informative responses.

Each registered user can ask one question at this time. Please bullet and sign your question. The deadline for your questions is the evening of Sunday, October 31st, and answers will be sent back on (approximately) November 22nd. If you're a registered member and for some reason you can't edit this page, ask your question on the discussion page, then I or Walky will move it here.

Thanks! --Monzo 14:48, 27 October 2010 (EDT)

November 2010 questions

  • What are the instructions for combining deluxe class Arcee, Chromia, and Elita-1? - Starfield 15:17, 27 October 2010 (EDT)
  • On the packaging of the 2010 'Generations' toyline (which consist entirely of Deluxe-class toys), the Convertion Difficulty Level meter now has a different rating based on the individual toy. Will we see this in future Transformer toylines, regardless of size-class? - Zadok Rox 15:39, 27 October 2010 (EDT)
  • The short lived season 5 of the original Transformers cartoon series had live action intros and outros featuring a stop motion Optimus Prime speaking to a kid named Tommy Kennedy. Is there any information on what studio was utilized to film these live action sequences? --Bluestreak7 15:42, 27 October 2010 (EDT)
  • You guys acquired the rights to the 80s cartoon back in 2008, but does that include possession of the production documentation that would have been generated at the time? If you do have it, does it mention details such which animation studio animated the episode "Call of the Primitives" or the identity of the Filipino animation studio that worked on season 2? --abates 16:18, 27 October 2010 (EDT)
  • What are the Chances of Seeing Toys of Hightower, Overload and Scrapper --Eagc7 27 October 2010
  • Are you still operating under the concept that the Original 13 Transformers are all multiversal singularities, or has this concept been abandoned? Will this concept ever be explained in high-circulation media (cartoons, live-action films, or toy packaging)? --Thylacine 2000 10:16, 28 October 2010 (EDT)
  • Due to the high amount of articulation, detail (he even has a backbone) and complexity of transformation, was Transformers 2010 Breacher originally designed to be a Deluxe Class toy?-ACIDSTORM92 03:34, 30 October 2010 (EDT)
  • Was the extremely close release of Savage/Noble with the Beast Wars Mutants, all Beast to Beast changers, intentional? Antimatter 12:57, 30 October 2010 (EDT)
  • During the post-season 3 timeframe in Japan, Takara released quite a few G1-followup series. In a lot of them, the Decepticons weren't led by a normal Transformer who was a jerk, but by vague supernatural evil entities such as Devil Z , Dark Nova, and Violen Jiger. Is there an explanation for what those guys were that fits into the current cosmological view of the Transformer universe? Omnibus 13:30, 30 October 2010 (EDT)
