    Nice moustache. It's like he's walking that dangerous line between pornstache and pedostache. That or he looks like an old Commissioner Gordon as played by Gary Oldman.

    Either way, risk taker.

    I would mainly like to know if he knows the difference between grey, silver and chromed plastic; and if so, do they all look the same to him?

    Great pornstache though. Ron Burgandy would be proud. Heyoooo!

    He's too busy being impressed by his new big fat paycheck to be bothered with the likes you.

    Hope his vision can inspire Hasbro to come up with more interesting products than Year of the Goat Optimus Prime and Soundwave.

    Ummm... pretty sure Archer was never the president of the entire Hasbro corporation.

    Also pretty sure that no one here is going to have any idea what they're talking about (as usual) when it comes what suit is running what department behind the scenes, but of course many will have a know-it-all opinion about something that makes absolutely zero amount of difference to any of us. Should be fun.
