Here is a video I took of the Bot shots Commercial That was playing in Hasbro's Show room at Toy Fair 2012.

I also took some photos from the show room and posted them here http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-toy-discussion/546684-my-toy-fair-photos.html They are from new and different angles to help people get a better Idea of what to expect.

 

Violent.

LOL!

 

I do like the cutaway right before Starscream gets skewered...

 

Little TF trolls

 

"Small bots. BIG ATTITUDE"?

REALLY, Hasbro? I guess "cool" is a relative term.

 

Would make for a cool Pokemon style video game based on the advert animation  

 

Funny how the promo doesn't showcase the actual figures whatsoever.

A FE Prime commercial would have been nice.

 

way to go hasbro so innovative...oh wait a minute didnt we already have this in bakugon minus the magnetic cards?

 

It's unlikely that I'll buy any of the toys, but I thought the game promo actually looked pretty cool.

 

why th efuck is there no article on hasbro treatment of asian factory workers? does no one care? its probably why first edition got cancelled from america, haha

 

Sorry what?

 

It always has been, no need guess.

 

I'd kind of like a real fighting game like that. Not turn-based tho.

 

Adorable. I love cute things hurting eachother.

Old, old news, man, and has nothing to do with this.

 

These bot shots sound intriguing. After seeing this, I kind of wish hasbro would do a toon of these over rescue bots. xD

Because that report was done by a sensationlist group that tends to fabricate stories for press. Notice how they singled out Hasbro only for it and didn't mention any of the other companies that may use those factories too.

The follow up investigation showed it to be hogwash, and I'm sure if an impartial third party group did another investigation it would either prove to be false still, or they would at least condemn all the companies that may use said factories.

Personally, I lean it was a hatchet job because Mattel is still trying to get out from under their own bad press of what they blamed on China that was their decisions and had nothing to do with china. The corporate underhanded way to do that is point and go "look they do stuff that's worse!" Instead of taking responsibility for choices.

FE was canceled due to retailers. It's really that simple. Hasbro isn't to blame for every toy and evil in the world. Retailers are the ones who decide what to put on shelves or not. Retailers are the ones who also make demands about what they are willing to pay(walmart especially) and what they mark up figures to in cost.

 

the music sounds like the cutscene music from the Lego Hero Factory: Breakout game.

 

Lmao nice

 

Pretty cool!   but Ill pass..
