what is next for Hasbro?

Ok, now that the movies are done, what is next for Hasbro. Yeah, naturally they'll be doing TF:PRIME figures but will Has/Tak continue to do C.H.U.R.G. styled figures? I thought that that "UNITED" Megatron was the start of something....

Given the lead time the figures need, they've already got it planned out, they just haven't told us yet!

We've still to see the "Movie Triolgy" line, "Prime" in it's entirety and about half dozen Generations retools from instruction sheets. There's plenty to come.

Post all that, who knows? Although I wouldn't be surprised if we saw another mini line like PCC fill a gap for a while.

Considering it's officially part of the movie lines (no kidding!), it's all over. And the order is:

Classics
Universe
Henkei
Gentei
Generations
Reveal the Shield
United

How well would CUHGGRU roll off the tongue? You know what, let's just call it "Classics-style" and be done with it.
The resident Rewind... well, half of one :lol:

- Jelze Bunnycat =:3

Looking for:
- TR Furos (Hardhead's head) and Crashbash (lost him :()
- PotP Punch head
- TR Galvatron right arm (the gun one)
- CW Brake-Neck/UW Wildrider, CW Offroad
- TR Twinferno & Grotusque
- Greenlight, Lancer and PotP Elita-1
- Legacy Core Slug, Sludge & Snarl

And for a little while there a few people were trying to force Hunt for the Decepticons in there too.

Next month, Classics will be 5 years old and fans are still squabbling over a name. Gotta love the Fandom!

Seriously, it's just "Classics" and the "Classicverse."

"Classics" and the "Classics Universe" works for me! But no more acronyms.

Thanks for that. Its not that I'm fully, fanatical about any line in particular, as I plan to add an Energon Shockblast/Sixshot, to turn into Shockwave, and a Galaxy Force/Cybertron voyager Starscream to my collection. If I have a favorite character I try to get a figure that I feel best epitomizes the character (seriously eyeing Animated Arcee - won't rule out the one from TF: Prime either). With the exception of Skyhammer and Mindwipe, I don't find most of the movie line figures appealing.

"try to keep up with the acronyms"

Yeah, Classics is much easier. I think everyone understands that. I seem to have hijacked the thread with my innocent little question. Sorry.
