It's not made by Hasbro or Takara. It's a cartoon accurate figure based on a G1 character which some refer to as "intellectual property". And is there any official statement saying that Hasbro/Takara endorses this figure ??? If so please provide a link.

Let me lay it out for you:
1) it uses the official logos of the series and of the brand itself.
2) the figure is called "Minelba", like the original G1 toy.
3) other companies can use Hasbro's and TakaraTomy's IP and trademarks when the proper license is bought from them.
4) since official names and logos are used, one should conclude that has happened, so it's an official licensed product.
Plus, the original advert said (c) 2012 Tomy

Back on topic NOW.
