	:::And I remember being disturbed at the sight of T2 toys when they were on the shelves. It's the Joe Camel thing. And as questionable as those are, TF seems to me to be even more notable because the toyline is actually the ''core'' of the franchise. T2 and JP toys are more like afterthoughts. I mean, whatever, we've gotten as much of an answer as we ever will out of Hasbro, so at this point the debate is academic. - [[User:Jackpot\|Jackpot]] 15:42, 9 July 2009 (EDT)		:::And I remember being disturbed at the sight of T2 toys when they were on the shelves.

			:::::Survey says, "Aaaaannnnnhhhhhh!". Seriously, Jackpot has a good point about being polite and diplomatic with Hasbro. Sadly, they have to think about keeping Hasbro afloat (and keeping their people out of the unemployment line), so if that means selling toys based on a movie that little kids shouldn't be watching, so be it. - [[User:Zadok Rox\|Zadok Rox]] 23:12, 9 July 2009 (EDT)

	:I didn't know that Lombardo had already given an answer. Also, yeah, I definitely agree with the principle that we shouldn't use Hasbro's generous Q&A opportunity to talk shit. The more uncomfortable we make it for them, the less likely they'll keep doing it in the future. And it's hard enough to get more than corporate non-answers out of them anyway; being confrontational would only guarantee defensive marketing babble. - [[User:Jackpot\|Jackpot]] 13:09, 9 July 2009 (EDT)		:I didn't know that Lombardo had already given an answer.
