    Default Taiwan Transformers 30th Expo

    Currently on in Taiwan is a 30th Anniversary Transformers Expo, hosted by Hasbro - featuring displays, dioramas, heaps of upcoming and current toys, plus some photo opportunities with a couple of different Grimlocks.

    One of the featured upcoming items was the Masterpiece Bumblebee, which someone took a few photos of.


    Our population is almost exactly the same as Taiwan (23.5 million), so I wonder if the reason why we don't get these sorts of Expos here is because our population is so spread out in comparison.

    On the lookout for MISB Headmaster Highbrow, Takara or Hasbro. I'm sure I could make you a sweet deal!

    Jetfire has chrome, niiiice!! Love the display of all the Kreons. Eats a lot of space but it's beautiful.

    Shame Hasbro Au doesn't make the same effort. I know in Philsm, the local Hasbro offices seek out the local TF fan communities and groups to help promote their product, and gives the group more incentive to help and get more organized. Wish it was like that here

    Doesn't help that only 5 people turn up to an Australian TF convention either. But i agree, with Hasbro's backing, a fully fledged convention may be economically viable

    i doubt Jetfire will be available here, but stranger things have happened.

    I'm working on it, but it is a slow process... especially in western markets, which had to pull back from direct interaction about 8 years ago thanks to some American sites competing to be exclusive Hasbro sources.
