One Direction dolls are on the list, but not G.I.Joe? Kids don't know good toys these days.

"1D" and Star Wars Angry Birds can both die in a fire.

What a huge load of crap.

Pretty sure all this stuff is already out.

But also a nice money saving blessing in disguise.

Just means I get to save for the things that really matter.

So wait- Kre-O and Weaponizers are on the list? Why not put Bumblebee on there as well?

So I guess we know what items Hasbro has overproduced and/or has the highest profit margins on.

This release just feels weird to me - too marketing-speak for a sales pitch, yet too much of a literal sales pitch to be a press release. I'm not really sure who the audience is.

Also,

Made me laugh. Talk about reaching.

Bumblebee is a Weaponizer.

since when did activating a weapon gimmick become a mode?

I mean Airwolf did it. K.I.T.T. did it. and those weren't Modes.

Bond did it, Batman did it, and Green Hornet did it. and those weren't modes.

Hasbro come on! you can do better than that.

I guess when Military gear up it's battle-mode. and when fire fighters gear up it's fire-extinguisher-mode. and when Trump Lawyers up he's in All-Your-Dollar-Are-Belong-To-us-mode, Or when a woman get's a facial she's in Halloween-Mode. *shrugs*
