He's not a superhero. Duh.

Hasbro, where's the Jar Jar vs Sebulba Galactic Heroes set we should've gotten two or three years ago??

Mulch. We encourage you to start a garden in your backyard. Plant carrots and beets and some tomatoes.


Dear Hasbro, when will you get over this Sigma Six nonsense and release some G.I.Joe Legends?

We've canned that line based on the nearly all positive feedback we received from the fans. Good news though, we're going to keep pumping out pictures to make your little wee wees keep standing up... and we might even let a few cases slip to places like France and Cuba so that you can pay $100 per figure on ebay, you dumb fucks.

If I send you a cheque for $50, will you make me a Yarna figure?

Since no one was asking for one, we decided to make a pre-emtpive strike.

Would it be possible to trade in the coins that come with the new figures for something we actually want?

You don't want the coins? What are you, a tard? Everyone knows coin collecting is the hottest new hobby around!

Hasbro, can we at least hope to get the rest of the fucking speaking characters before we get shit like "Battle-Damaged Lando" or "Fanboy Wank Alien #29"?

We can neither confirm nor deny the existence of upcoming figures. But, we here at Hasbro listen to the fans and know you enjoy cross-overs. Therefore, we will be starting over with all the main characters. The first figure in next year's wave will be a Titanium Potato Head Han Solo in Captain America attire that transforms into Duke. The pack-in bouns will be a xerox copy of a random WOTC card game. We know you'll love it.

Will you guys ever make a Cloud Car or should I just get a Vintage one from e-bay?

We released an EU Cloud Car in the late 90's. We are in the process of making a special mail away connector piece so you can attach two of these EU Cloud Cars together. Bingo! Instant Vintage Cloud Car. You can thank us later.

For awhile there, you were doing really well with the Transformers Alternators, making cool updates of classic G1 characters. But there are still several well known Autobots that need Alternator loving like Brawn, Ratchet, Ironhide, Trailbreaker, Gears. Will you ever do something about that?

Once the massive appeal of the Transformers movie toys dies down, say, in 2014, we will be repainting the Optimus Prime, Hound, Meister, Grimlock, and Tracks Alternators and naming them Brawn, Ratchet, Ironhide, Trailbreaker, and Gears! Look for them exclusively at a FAO Schwarz shareholders meeting near you!

Samurai Snake Eyes? WTF? Do you just like pissing on everything that Larry Hama did?

Who is Larry Hama? We don't look into the meaning of things. We just find words that kids think are cool and put them in front of the toy's name.


Why are those G1 Transformer keychains so expensive?

Because we had to re-create the molds, since the original molds were sold on eBay for crack rock a few years ago.

Hasbro, the Unleashed BattlePacks suck ass. Why do you continue to make them? And why is there going to be a fucking Unleashed R1-G4?

Because big fucking robots are cool.

Why is that Jawa taking R5-D4's head off while pointing his blaster? I don't remember that scene in the movie.

It soon will be. George Lucas is sick and tired of paying royalties to the actors, so he's dropping what he calls the "side story" of farmboy Luke Skywalker in favor of the epic struggle of nameless, faceless jawas in costumes vs CGI Stromtroopers. This new Deluxe Reimagined Special Edition will be in theatres in July and be availible on DVD in...July also.


Hasbro, when did quality become a four letter word up there in Pawtucket?
