    I interpretted it as 'character', being the name/bio, Vs the 'alt mode', being what it turns into. I think it is to see if collectors care more for original moulds or particular classic characters.
    If it came down to prioritising characters, we could see more recolours (like in Universe) that are homages to classic characters - okay, sometimes they work (Roadbuster) but sometimes they don't (Blaster, Springer).
    But if it came down to their alt mode, we could see less homage toys, or maybe better homage toys that are designed to better reflect a classic character.

    That may be so but it still doesn't fully explain why the Universe pegs are empty and Animated toys filled.

    As I understand it, there is no one there looking out for the pegs and filling them up as they become empty, they restock the shelves in cycles so all of them get filled at the same time.

    Mel, the Choose-Female-Survey-Ends thing was a programming bug and has been fixed:

    I wonder if they fixed up the age bug as well. Adzma, you should try again, if you haven't already tried with an older age option.

    It all comes back to the low rates they pay the slack teenagers, You pay peanuts = You get Monkeys...

    Did it just now. Pretty bereft. I thought a few more questions like how much do you care for repaints, prefer what type of vehicles/alt modes etc. Still nice though I agree that the expenditure cap is pretty low.
