It is actually a very good customer service/Entertainment/promotion thing they could do but they won't because it takes too much effort and it only benefits the end consumer directly. We are not really Hasbro's customer base - They sell to retailers in particular Walmart so we are actually the resellers/retailer's customers not Hasbro's.

Just to be different I've tried it the other way around and have not yet built the giant, but have transformed both Crane and Bulldozer back and forth a few times to get a feel for each of the components. I found once I got used to them the transfromations are quite simple but satisfying. You have to be careful with cranes arms to pull the hinge out a bit before you rotate. Anyway now that I understand the transformation is pretty easy, better than the FP insecticons even.
The figures that I found easy was the cement mixer, bulldozer and Crane, but for some reason the rest I just blank out, especially when I was trying to bring back from robot mode back to vehicle mode, ah well I guess I need more practice. As for now they're in combined mode to stay

Yeah can't say I'm a fan of Scrappers transformation. Those shoulder hinges freak me out.

Looks like there is a KO coming out this November. Can't say I'm not tempted, considering the price....

Be careful. There are a few parts on them that if made of inferior plastic could make you very sad indeed.

That's quite unfortunate, especially so quickly after Green Giant's official release I wonder if they had the chance to KO since Yellow Giant, or if they just wanted to KO Green Giant from the beginning.
Battle Tanker had pretty much been sold out on most online retailers when it got KO'ed. RK is currently still showing some pretty big stock numbers of Green Giant atm - currently at about 140 - I've been checking almost everyday since I still have not ordered mine yet. Suppose I should put in my order soon, otherwise if the official one gets sold out and I have to start looking at the secondary market, it may get tricky to differentiate the real deal.
