Re: Slow sales lately
I've bought very little in the past year and even worse... I haven't felt like I've missed out.
The market has been ruined with the Movie TF lines... 90% of it is garbage based on garbage movies and it has clogged the shelves since the first release. Hasbro has dropped the ball on their TF strategy. Movies come and movies go and kids don't obtain any emotional attachment to the characters (especially when they suck) and it's just one more watered-down reiteration to muddy the franchise. They keep re-booting the story and there isn't even enough time between reboots for anyone to acquire nostalgia.
I say go back to G1. G1 story. G1 characters and stick with it. Hell, take the original show and just 3D animate it. Use the dialogue already in place and just make it look good. And stick with it. Forget the movies.
Bring it full circle. Re-Unite the collectors. Until all are one.
