I wanna know about Swoop now, I've not seen hair not tail of him.

Hi all,

Thanks iprimus for clearing up the rumours.

Let me just explain exactly who we are and how the Hasbro display at AA came around.

My brother and I are long time Transformers fans ourselves and have been on tf&themoon for many years. I myself have been collecting transformers for 21 years and my brother ever since he was old enough!

We attended AA03 and Transforce04 purely as fans, even though I did try to get Toys R Us (my employer at the time) to come to Transforce themselves.

Neither of us actually work for Hasbro. I worked for Hasbro for a total of 2 years as iprimus stated in the IT department by the end of which I was known around the building as the Transformers guy. Since then I have held the position of Transformers Fan Liaison Consultant in an unpaid and unofficial role, whereby I try my best to benifit the fans and Hasbro to try and bring the two closer together.

The main focus of the event for Hasbro was to display the competition prizes and talk about the competition and thats all. With regards to some of the rumours, yes we did know the resin samples were for the competition, thats why we were handing our leaflets and encouraging people to enter...

I asked Hasbro to provide us with more product that was not available in the UK to display to make it more interesting for you guys.

The Transformers brand manager did as the moon said want to come and I believe she will surely try to next year.

As for the event, we had a great time even though we didnt earn anything from it.

I thoroughly believe that this is one more step in the right direction as fort max has said, hopefully it will get the ball rolling.

As such I open the floor to all of you to provide me with feedback about you liked and didnt like from our display this year AND what you would like to see from Hasbro next year.

All constructive feedback will be fed back to the right people.

I hope I have answered all your questions, but if you have anymore or wish to email comments / suggestions / feedback, please feel free to email me on :
