January Qs to Hasbro (closes 25th December)

[griffin]

January submission - 20 questions to Hasbro by the 1st January, so please post your questions by the 25th December (to give me enough time to sort and check out the best ones, and to converse with anyone who posted something that needs or could be reworded).

Make sure you read the 'Rules' posting before you post your questions.

The various questions that didn't make previous months will also be considered.

Q: Any plans or intentions to import Masterpiece Grimlock to Australia as was done with Ultra Magnus and Convoy w/ trailer?

------------------

Q: Why won't Hasbro use full wrap-around bubbles like Takara uses that allows carded figures to be opened without damaging the backing card and also allows opened figures to be displayed on card?

e.g.:
Japanese TF movie Deluxe figure (in this case Lawson Bumblebee)

The October Q&A from an american board suggested that Hasbro would be releasing Grimlock in the last quarter of 2009. If that is indeed true, I don't think Hasbro AUS will release the JP version - it would limit sales of their own release, and they've only imported JP versions of MP toys that weren't released by Hasbro.

Hopefully Hasbro answer that in their current round (I submitted a Q about it in November), so that we might have confirmation on their next 'MP' figure being Grimlock, before next month.

with the Timelines re-release of the Seacons boxset, will we see any more G1 combiner teams being released? Perhaps a G2 Stunticon boxset?

i think a simmilar one might have been asked but:

1. Does hasbro recieve feedback, (ie good or bad) about all their resent repaints of old molds?

2. apart from these q&a's and the collector survey, how else do hastak get feedback not only from regular fans but collectors too?

I tried using the advance search to check if my question have been asked regarding universe unicron but I thought posting it here could be easier...

Q: Are we expecting Universe Unicron to show up on shelves of our local major retailers? If so, when?
