    Collectors Survey From Hasbro includes Transformers, G.I. Joe, Starwars and a few more lines from Hasbro. You can leave personal feedback for each line and tell hasbro what you think from a collector's point of view.

    Done. Nice to have somewhere to vent my irritation with AFA graded nonsense, not to mention the huge price hike for TFCC overseas members.

    Done. I wish that I knew it would make a difference. :(  Anyone remember the 2004 OTFCC survey? I haven't seen much come from that, aside from maybe Classics.

    Thanks. I voiced my request to continue Classics no matter how futile it was to do so...

    I think most of us added the suggestion to continue the classics line. Even if it was an alt/tit style subline, any new classics molds would be great to have.

    In my comments to Hasbro, I wrote:

    And after I clicked "submit", I realized I should've added: Give us a freaking coupon code for a discount on hasbro.com's shop to reward us for taking our precious time to take your survey which you're probably going to ignore for the most part. That way at least we get SOMETHING out of it.

    If that's "all" that came from it, that's pretty damn good!

    done! at the end they ask for suggestions and I wrote "My suggestion is to keep re-releasing Generation 1 Transformers toys and to re-release the 1980's and 1990's Transformers figures that were available in Japan only, to America."

    I also asked for more Classics. I want to see the rest of the seekers available for the general public, and not astronomically priced like the ones they will have at Botcon.

    Filled mine out asking for more Classics. I like how they asked what you spend every year, maybe enough of us that spend a lot over the course of a year will help make a difference.:D

    I begged them to stop rehashing the past and to come up with a completely different take on Transformers. I used the leap from G2 to BW as an example of a complete stylistic overhaul.

    I also asked for open channels with those involved in the creation of Transformers. Similar as to how the Star Wars team will answer fan questions from time-to-time. Even if it's a bi-monthly Q-n-A in the TCC Newsletter.

    I commended the design of the movie toys and asked for a more direct pipeline to the designers; the ability to interact directly with them in a forum-style format. You know, like we USED to have.

    I hope others will express similar thoughts... it can only be beneficial for the fandom to have better ties to Hasbro.

    Done.. Didn't ask to continue classics, I asked them to visit sites like this and learn what people want instead of assuming a little bit more. Doubt this will help but you never know.

    I also did my part in asking for more Classics as there was at least some thin hope with that.

    For the out of this world request I asked for new sculpt 6" Constructicons and female figures for the Sigma Six line.

    Damn though forgot to ask for a Classics style Blitzwing.
