    Dear Mister Hasbro, do you often read Tee-Eff-Double-You-Two-Thousand-Five? If yes, who is your favorite member?

    To Hasbro.

    Why has there been a systematic general decrease of quality in the Transformer line, primarily in deluxe class figures?

    Why do promotion photos often have much superior painted detailing than the final in package product?

    Why was Universe Galavatron made deluxe size when his engineering is good enough for Voyager?


    Thanks

    I don't need Hasbro to answer this.

    Many promo photos are made using hand-painted prototypes. They're done loooooong before the toys actually go into production, so they're not restricted to production-run budget limitations.

    Hasbro have already done this sort of thing, back in 2004? and 2005 on their TF site. As with everything on the Hasbro TF website, they got bored and forgot to update later on :p 

    See: Post-Orson Q&A, Ask Vector Prime and the 'Designer Notes' on new toys.

    I suggest adding "Don't ask Hasbro questions about Takara toys unless the question is specifically about a potential Hasbro release of those toys" to the disclaimer at the beginning...

    Well since not to many people are reading what this thread is supposed to be for, I'll try to get it back on track.

    I think this is a great idea, though it would be nice if it was monthly instead of bi-monthly. Still the chance for a direct line to Hasbro to get some fan questions answered is always a good thing. Now I will go to the thread we are supposed to use for the questions and post mine. :)

    I'd also suggest not to ask questions about things officially expected to happen next week-ish (such as release dates for toys scheduled to come out this or next month) in a bi-monthly venture.

    GB, to the average rabid fan, your well-meaning large-font link looks like an underlined demand to post in this thread, rather than a link to a different thread :lol 

    maybe edit to say

    POST YOUR QUESTIONS HERE ---> QUESTIONS THREAD ?
