actually, it's not unknown for criminals to be given jobs finding ways to stop others doing what they did. ever see Catch Me If You Can?

Hasbro utilising some of the 3rd parties as an official collectors line could work, but it won't happen, because it'd benefit everyone, and no-one wants that, apparently.
assembling a Neo-G1/TF:TM cast. Please PM if you have (or know of) the following at a reasonable price: Classics or Henkei Prowl, Astrotrain, Ramjet, Skywarp, Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, Blurr, Perceptor, GDO Wheelie and Springer, or 3rd Party Motobot Arcee, FP Springer, iGear Ratchet and Ironhide, City Commander (and/or Ultra Magnus), Starscream (deluxe) Coronation add-on, or Spike and Daniel in their Exo-Suits.

Giving fans what they want? Hah! No US MP releases in sight nor any G1 reissues slated for this year. None last year either. Just pegs flooded with Bumblebees from different lines.
Besides the FoC Bruticus and Shockwave - there is really nothing exciting coming out this year. There had better some big announcements coming at BotCon or this will be a s*%$ year again

I don't collect transforming toys. The ONLY reason these 3rd party companies get my money, is because they make recognizable and awe inspiring Transformers toys and accessories. I would MUCH MUCH MUCH prefer to buy them from Hasbro. I have no love for the 3rd party companies themselves. I wish Hasbro would straight up KO all the 3rd party stuff and put it on my shelves for a 10th the price.


OMG YES! I agree with you 100%
