Hasbro Q&A/May 2009: Question submission
Transformers Wiki participates in Hasbro's roughly-every-other-month Question & Answer session. Our site will be allowed to submit three questions to Hasbro's Transformers team for answering. If you're a registered user at our site, please add your question below!
Keep in mind that Hasbro is not likely to tell us about future product they are not ready to reveal, so keep those sorts of questions to a minimum. Please be as thoughtful about your question as possible! We will similarly reject questions like, "Hasbro, why do you suck so much?" The better and more useful the question, the more likely the admins will choose it to be one of the three submitted. We also reserve the right to edit your question for clarity if need be.
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, May 3rd, and answers will be sent back on May 14. 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 19:29, 25 April 2009 (EDT)
May 2009 questions
- Are there any thoughts of creating artbooks like that of Japan's "Transformers Generations 2009" in the US? --Lonegamer78 20:01, 25 April 2009 (EDT)
- To what extent is Hasbro allowed to use Tonka Go-Bots characters in new toys? Assuming the trademark to a character's name is available are you limited to homages, or are you allowed to use the character itself?--RosicrucianTalk 20:18, 25 April 2009 (EDT)
- If you were forced at gunpoint to redeco Universe Cyclonus into a different character, with no retooling, who would you choose? --ItsWalky 20:21, 25 April 2009 (EDT)
- Given the advances in toy design over the last twenty years, if you could go back in time and impart one piece of knowledge to the Transformers design team of the 80s, what would it be? --abates 20:36, 25 April 2009 (EDT)
- Has Hasbro given a thought to producing a figure of the upgraded form of Sari Sumdac? Given the fact that a figure of Kicker was produced for the Energon toyline, a figure based on a "human" isn't unlikely. Antimatter 20:59, 25 April 2009 (EDT)
- Is anyone on the Transformers team at liberty to discuss the cancelled third series of the 3D Battle-Card Game, as far as what might have been in it character or concept-wise? If not, is there any way TFWiki can liase with someone at WOTC for more info? Hooper_X 10:58, 26 April 2009 (EDT)
- This question may concern more the European branch of Hasbro and the part linked to the television distribution, but why was the third season of Beast wars and the whole beast machines show never aired in French, and subsequently, can we expect one day a DVD release of the French version of Beast Wars and Beast Machines. Thanks.--GUIGUI 13:33, 26 April 2009 (EDT)
