Future of Transformers Toys...

[Ode to a Grasshopper]

I'd like to see them continue with Animated. It holds so much potential. Not just in character designs but also the markability to kids.

I am concerned over the materials used to make them though. What happens when the worlds oil supply runs out? How about a return to die cast? More expensive but have you seen the price of oil at the moment?

It'd be nice, but I won't be holding my breath.

Maybe Hasbro could switch to hemp plastic? A hemp Beachcomber would be kinda funny...

Hemp Beachcomber would be great!

I'm not holding my breath either. Most stuff doesn't get released in the Illawarra anyway. The land of shelf warmers.

I'd like to see a return of functional gimmicks eg Headmasters that transform. Updated Pretenders. With the advancements in engineering, decent combiners and updated (6 transforming components) Devestator.

Though to be honest i'd settle for regular releases.

I like to think of it as Australian Retails metaphorical and geographical Anus.
Land of The Shelf Warmers is pretty damn accurate though.

I agree with you on the return of functional gimmicks like Pretenders, Targetmasters and Headmasters - I'd also like to see a proper go at a new Beast Wars-centric line with rubber skin and fur I say!

That would be cool. A real life representation of beast wars characters.

There is so much more potential for revisiting old lines. And the best part is it moves away from Movieverse.
