    I want better instructions than on those newly found MOSC Micromaster Patrols

    "Lap de achterkant uit; dit worden de robotbene. Zet de robot rechtop."

    What? :P

    I would like to see a few words of instruction added for things that pictures can't depict or make clear. I'd like to see clear warnings for parts that aren't "made to detach if excessive force is applied".

    I'd also like to see some consistant/uniform sizing of the instructions too so you could file them away better (A4/Letter size perhaps with larger ones folding nicely to that size.)

    At the moment the instructions reflect the quality of the figures. Fairly cruddy.

    Animated box art and packaging is greatly improved over the packaging we got for Cybertron, now the instructions (and whatever other extra paperwork added) should be improved.

    I wouldn't mind improved instructions but overall I don't really care.

    I would be happier if they payed more attention to the actual toy.

    big HI 5

    seriously speaking..if money goes to improving the instructions and lose focus on the toy figures itself...would you buy the toy even if the instructions are good and detailed? doesn't make any sense

    I want because they look nicer, that's just my personal taste though of course

    Bring back G1 styles!

    It's ironic that overall I find the G1 instructions to be the most helpful as they had little descriptions at the top of each box telling you what to do, rather than just shading a part with some arrows around it. On more complicated toys you can hardly tell which part is which in the picture! But G1 are also about the easiest TF's to transform ever so you don't really need those awesome instructions in the first place - put little descriptions on the ones we get now Hasbro - I very occasionally need them!
