Worst Ideas for Hasbro Thread
« on: June 29, 2006, 05:54 PM »
Just for fun, what are some really absurd ideas that would really tick you off if Hasbro did them?

Here's a couple that might really get under people's skin (including mine):

- No army builders for a year
- Soft goods on every figure

3 3/4" Unleashed figures
Non-vintage figures on retro-vintage packaging

You took the words right out of my mouth.

But I'd add 2" unleashed figures to that list.

Ah, two of my ideas.

I really don't like the 2" Unleashed either, but I think if Hasbro had to change the Unleashed line, experimenting with a 3-3/4" line would have made more sense than the 2" scale.

I think making them 60 feet tall would have made more sense than the 2" scale.

Let's see:
Not one Clone,Imperial trooper,Rebel Trooper or Sep Droid
Any unleashed under the size of the original unleashed
All of the clothes on figures are cloth,like dolls  :-X
No Luke,R2.3PO,Han,Obi-Wan,Leia,Padme,Mace,Yoda,Anakin,Vader,Mual or Palpatine the whole year
Force Battlers
Choppers
Packing full cases of warmers (Bib,Bren,Holo Ki,Nemodian Warrior,ROTS Vader,etc...)

Killing the 3 3/4 line and replacing it with 8 inch anime style figures.

Duh, of course you didn't.  Which is why you mock me with my  :)  signature when you don't know.

Super articulated figures for $13 in their own line and go back to 5 points of articulation in the basic line.

Another Millennium Falcon

Instead of plastic mini holos place crappy coin in there, oh nevermind

You are never alone when there's a clone.

A brand-new falcoln would be nice a re-pack not so nice.
