To be honest with you, we constructed a new one out of cardboard. It was much cheaper. Now we have more money for paint so we can keep cranking out more clones, because we know you guys want them!

When are you going to cut to the chase and say that the Saga Legends line was a mistake?
Good. Bad. I'm the guy with the gun.

Why admit we were wrong about being right?


So, are these types of Battlepacks going to continue?

Yes! Look out for more to come in the Spring to complete the big battles from all six films. They will include:
*Battle of Naboo - Naboo Soldiers, Battle Droids, and an AT-ST
*Battle of Geonosis - Jedi, Geonosians, and an AT-ST
*Battle of Coruscant - Clone Pilots, Vulture Droids, and an AT-ST
*Battle of Yavin - X-wing Pilots, TIE Fighter Pilots, and an AT-ST
We wished we could have had a stronger central theme to each of them, though.


So exactly how many Sandtrooper variants am I supposed to be looking for? You keep making more and it's hard to keep up.
Shit. I can't think of a good signature.

We're holding off on rereleasing Ephant Mon until Jesse Jackson's presidential inauguration.

There, that ought to hold off the bastards for a while.


Soooo...how's the Marvel Legends line going for you guys? Pegs are empty, that must be a good sign, right?
Good. Bad. I'm the guy with the gun.

Of course it's a good sign. The Marvel Legends are doing great. Everything we it perfect.

Is it true that you guys aren't really going to give any straight answers in the Q&As until after Toy Fair?

Are you going to fix that Destroyer Droid's extremely shitty shield before you release it?
Shit. I can't think of a good signature.

We can't discuss that until after Comic-Con.

It seems to be an epidemic lately that figures have hands that break off at the wrists. Are you aware of this problem, and what do you plan to do to correct it?

If that's what its going to take to drive the most hardcore collectors away from our line, then there will be roughly 12 Vaders. (one for each month)

January: Darth Vader w/ POTF2 Tatooine Luke
February: Darth Vader w/ black clone trooper (to honor black history month) - Available in April
March: Darth Vader w/ easter egg clone
April: Darth Vader w/ Yarna and Ice Cream Maker Guy----HA! April Fools, Bitches! It's really just Darth Vader with another clone
May: Darth Vader w/ Commtech Han Solo
June: Darth Vader w/ Boussh Leia
July: Darth Vader w/ AOTC Obi-Wan
August: Darth Vader w/ Electronic R2-D2
September: Darth Vader w/ POTF2 Dr. Evazan
October: Darth Vader w/ Rancor Keeper
Novemeber: Darth Vader w/ Tan Vest Luke
December: Darth Vader w/ Saga Emperor Palpatine

We are sure you will enjoy the re-release of every one of these figures.


Do you guys even care what collectors of Star Wars, GI Joe, Transformers, or Marvel figures think?

What are you punks going to do? Come out of your moms' basements, face the sunlight and human contact, and come to Rhode Island to get your Ho-Ho crumbs on our jackets? We're so scared.

Okay, now that the DVD is out and idiots everywhere are buying it, care to come clean on what you really thought of the Transformers movie?

Hasbro said they loved working on the Transformers movie with Steven Speilberg and Mikeal Bay. Transformers was a really cool movie. My brother said that a lot of the things that Optimus said was from the old TV Show I think thats cool! He said they got the old guy to do Optimus Prime again and he said yes! But not Megatron who is the bad guy from Matrix. That's what my brother says.


Dear Hasbro,

Can you make a really cool Darth Vader figure thats way cooler thanthe ones you already have? Thanks. And some cool clonetroopers like ones that fly and have laser beams and helmets and stuff. I love clonetroopers! I have about a million of them from my paper route!
Would you like a new Darth Vader sculpt?

We're glad you want another Vader! So do we. Since you obviously speak for all the collectors out there, we'll be sure to provide you plenty of exciting new Vaders in the future. Look for Darth Vader in Snowtrooper Armor coming early next year!

Hasbro, the gold coins don't seem to be moving nearly as well as the similar stunt from last year. Why do you think this is?

'Cause you guys would rather have cheap-looking silver shit than coins that actually display in an album and look nice? We have no idea, so we're done trying with these fucking pack-ins. After we have the stands next year, though, we're going back to Commtech chips. But it's just gonna be us farting into microphones.

Since you've recently made Rogue II and Tycho figures, when are you gonna make everyone else from this site?
Shit. I can't think of a good signature.

You mean besides Yoda, Darth Vader, Grimlock, Cobra Commander, and Optimus Prime? Not until you learn to blow at least as good as Rogue II. Practice all you want, but you'll never be as good as Tycho. It's too bad he'll never father a kid, Bizarro The Grin doesn't know what he's missing.

What's up with that now Lando figure's eyes?
