[griffin]

March submission - 12 questions to Hasbro by the 1st March, so please post your questions by the 24th February (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).

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

Any news on the Hasbro Australia shop?


Will there be any toy ads this year? The amount of toy ads for Transformers on free to air Australian tv is disturbingly low, i thought they would be hocking them non stop now that Animated toys are out

whos idea was it to cancel the G1 cartoon? An individual? A board meeting?

To forget the past is to doom the future: are there any specific things that Hasbro has done which - if they had their time again - they might have done differently?

Apparently the advertsing for Australia's transformers is done by the shops themselves, not Hasbro.

I am sure there will be sme for the movie toys.

The TV ads would be by Hasbro, because they don't mention any store. Most toy ads that aren't 'exclusive' or 'only at' certain stores would be from the toy companies. But since their main focus is convincing the retailers to buy their stock, and let the retailers worry about moving it, the promoting of the product to consumers (outside of any applicable cartoon) would appear to be a low priority.

Guys these questions are for Hasbro not you
