Maybe they lost them again
those customer service chaps must have a lot of work to do to find out the answer to a lot of these questions. Reading the Americna asnwer thread, they end up with a fair few in there. I don't mind waiting, 3 monthe down the track, perhaps I can go, "Hey! Thats my question being answered, forgot about that! WOOO HOO"

With it just revealed at the melbourne toy fair that profits had jumped by ~5 times in 2007, where is the excuse for the bad paint applications that happened at the same time as the profit jump?
And why do we get lame engineered things such as bumbler battlers and a non true all in one devastator, and just a slightly changed ult bumblebee which really should be at robosapien levels? Surely the R&D funds should have increased as much?

Is Australia missing the new Animated and Universe Voyagers, or are they just really backlogged/delayed? If it's the latter, when can we expect to see them here?

Bad paint apps - there have been reports of sticky paint Henkei Prowls. As Hasbro said TakaraTomy handles the manufacturing of Transformers, I'd say it's a case of whatever factory they contracted using dodgy paint or doing the job badly, rather than Hasbro (or Takara) going "Hey, let's save money by INTENTIONALLY doing a bad job".
You call Bumbler Battlers lame and I say those things are adorable and cool
Devastator is not great, but yeah, they wanted the toy to be durable and stable and reasonably accurate in combined mode. I don't think, given the transformation engineering for the individual robot modes, they would have formed stable limb modes to support the weight of Devastator's torso. I've noticed the most stable sorts of combiner limbs (especially for feet) tend to be toys who are designed to be more solid, relatively uncomplicated and block-like.
Even though Ultimate Bumblebe is a terrible toy, I'm pretty sure he doesn't have complex robosapien style movements so he can still transform (geared motors don't tend to like you forcing them to move while not powered).

In light of today's news...
It was recently revealed that TakaraTomy is releasing a set of Legends-class figures of the Revenge of the Fallen Constructicons, which can additionally combine. What's the likelihood of these toys getting a release by Hasbro outside of Japan?

Sorry if this has been answered before but:
With Hasbro now producing GI Joe & Marvel Universe, would Transformers built to fit 3 & 3/4 inch figures be a possibility ?
