"Note: The manufacturer which produced the Hasbro transformers now have gone bankrupt, therefore all that remains have been listed ,there are tiny scratches on the item"

I assume that this is just a line to sell more on eBay....

NEW Transformers movie aurobot police figure toys car on eBay, also Generation 1, Transformers, Action Figures, Toys Games (end time 17-Jun-09 11:11:11 BST)

 

oh wow... i didnt know that Barricade was an "Aurobot" now...

well gyahdamn lol

 

almost an original attempt to get someone to part with cash, almost  

 

this is lame attempet

 

This is bad comedy.

 

It could just be a bad translation.

Could be they've lost their job (been caught stealing items) and that's the best way they could translate it.

 

Maybe this is from that factory that was closed down or something.

 

Aurobot? This belongs in the Engrish thread.  

 

Hasbro has production contracts with shitloads of Chinese factories. One going under isn't the end of the world.

 

Maybe the translator was home sick that day.

 

Or the first to be laid off in the bankruptcy.

 

even if this is true I am sure hasbro would quickly replace the company and as other have said multiple companies produce the toys for hasbro so one going done ( assuming this is true) is not gonna effect things much the other will just ramp up production a bit , its my opinion its a marketing ploy and not a good one

 

eBay sellers fail me yet again.

 

I love how in the delivery times part is says 'even lost' as the amount of time your item might take to get there.

 

Touche.  

 

all items will be tested strickly   translation: i have played with this toy a lot, it is now loose, enjoy

 

Hahaha! That's up there with "item is MISB/MOSC". Which apparently means "I have opened it and played with it but I have put it back in the box and stuck the flaps back down". Only thing is you can clearly see where the box has been ripped on opening! Fools.
