Hasbro Q&A 06/04/09

Posted by:

Fresh off the heels of Botcon, and every awesome thing they unveiled there, the Transformers Team apparently wasn't in the mood for our hard hitting 'Barbara-Walters-like' questions that we submitted this round! :)  

Check out our Events and Interviews Section which has been updated with the latest batch of Q&A from Hasbro's Transformers development team.  Keep in mind, these questions were composed (and probably had responses written) a few weeks before Botcon!

it seem the more fans emerge the more careful hasbro is going to be with leaking pics and videos. it keeps it intresting . just like you perceptor. if you were making another accessorie for the fans you wouldnt want them to see or steal you're ideas. i have to agree with red . they did brush you off .

Oh yeah man, I totally get it. And don't blame them a bit for the answers they gave. My questions were a little too direct and easy to shoot down. But what the hey, it can't hurt to try. (I don't think!)

Ouch that was rough Perceptor! Did your butt hurt after all that. It sounds like they didnt care about the Qs

*Must....resist...Barbara...Walters...joke...*

In all seriousness, I think that the last question got shafted the most! Detailed questions getting vague answers doth not a Q&A session make, Hasbro. =/

I'm more interested in if hasbro is going to continue the classics line next year. We still need Jazz,Wheeljack,tracks,skids,rumble,frenzy and Soundwave.
I love the movie figures but I like the classics better. Because It gives everything that you wanted in transformer when you were a kid.

I am glad that Hasbro has decided to start working with websites on these Q&A's, but they need to start giving us actual answers too! I realize that as a big company there are many things in flux up until a project is "nailed down", but at least give us a few hints now and then. I do wish they would give us official teaser images before some smoe in China shows us a miss-transformed proto that was stolen from the factory. And what about a fan-produced project? They have done this with Star Wars: give us 5 or 6 six molds to choose from (pre-existing), let the fans vote on it, then give us 3 or 4 different paint options for the winning mold, vote again, add a new head sculpt, and BANG, you have a fan-produced TF.

There was another Hasbro Q&A Session?

@Wheelie Is My Name

I think Music Labels Soundwave, Frenzy, and Rumble are supposed to be the classics versions of those two. And I don't think that Tracks and Skids are going to get a mainline Classics toy. Maybe a legends, but probably not a Deluxe, if I'm not mistaken.

I really hope that we get a follow-up of Animated so that the show doesn't feel like a complete failure.
I just hope that this time around, it'll be a bit darker and a bit more serious. Also, am I the only one who would like to see the human villians back in action in the new series(besides PP, she can rot in jail)? I think that the time in jail for them could have the same effects as it did on Wasp. Also, what about Megs, Shockwave, Lugnut, Ramjet, Thundercracker, Sunstorm, Slipstream, Swindle, Lockdown, Team Charr, Skywarp and the rest the lot, do you think that they'll have some Stockade-Trauma? I don't think Megatron or Shockwave will but the others like the remaining Seekers may have a few--"bugs"--in their system.

Of those you've listed, Lord Megs, only Megs, Shockwave, Lugnut, the Liar, and Sunstorm, (and Blitzwing) were captured/jailed. The rest are still free and on the loose.

Well, at least they answered my three questions at Botcon. Was anyone there when I asked? I was the one in the Southern Section hat who asked if they thought Gilbert Gottfried was a good voice.
