Does Hasbro have any plans for some kind of collectors shop on their online store for Canadian fans to acquire hard to find figures or American only exclusives at fair and reasonable prices? Would such a thing be too much of a niche market for Hasbro to even consider?

Can you address the difference in quality and design between Crossover Transformers (Marvel & Star Wars) and actual Transformers? It seems that Crossover Transformers, despite the higher price point, are of lower quality (questionable types of joints, less paint apps, no clear windows, simpler transformations, etc.) than say, lower priced deluxes which are far more complex and detailed. And also, why have the tiny pilots been dropped from the SWTF line?

Why did it take 4 months for Animated Arcee and Cybertronian Ratchet to show up in Canada after the U.S. got them?

We know that the Canadian retailers can choose to pick up the exclusives that are already being produced for their American couterparts, or not. Has any Canadian retailers ever expressed interest in having their own exclusives made?

The U.S. mail-away exclusive Recon Ravage was sold at retail as a Toys R Us exclusive in Canada. First, thank you! Second, can we have more of that please? If there are future mail-away exclusives, will we get them at retail up here? Or was Recon Ravage an anomaly? I'd be interested to know the story behind that.

How are characters chosen for toys - is there a sort of round table discussion to decide?
When characters have been chosen, what kind of process goes from the decision to make a character through to putting the figure in a package.

If you could green-light any character to get a new figure, who would you create?

I'm still interested to find out weither or not Canada will definately be receiving the TRU exclusives TFA Rodimus and Ironhide. Even if they are delayed from the US release, if we know for sure that Canada WILL get them, it would be a great relief for many Canadian TF Fans.

Does Hasbro Canada understand the frustration for both adults and children when it comes to trying to collect there toy lines,... when the toys are not released here or are in short supply (short pack)? is there any way to provide an outlet (possible online venue for Canadians to buy direct with reasonable postage rates) so that these figures are attainable.

-Is there a legitimate way for a transformers fan to get his/her hands on a prototype figure?

-With the new generations line, is there any plans to have more re-imagined beast wars characters like those featured in the universe 2.0/classics line (Cheetor/Dinobot)?
