Re: Amazon exclusive Dirge and Ramjet status

If they do a reissue, do a massive release with all 3 coneheads for those of us screwed by TRU's horrible Thrust release.

At the end of the day I'm sure they just want to go home to be with their families, have a beer with friends, and do anything else that's not work related. The interview with Super_Megatron is the extent of their fan engagement because it was probably done through Hasbro so they got paid to answer those questions. They don't get paid to sift through pages and pages of fan forum posts.

The distribution team however, when are we going to.
Thank you. The entitlement on some of the other comments in this thread is revolting.

Re: Amazon exclusive Dirge and Ramjet status

How do you design something if you do not know the target audience or what that audience wants? Shouldnt the designers be involved in the overall community even at a minimum level if transformers are their passion and they are not just CAD operators working a 9-5. Took them 30 years to do animation accurate characters at an affordable price.

Fan boys will think its passion when its really dudes just paying their bills and humoring nerds.


Also accusing someone of entitlement is a position of entitlement in itself hypocrite.

Re: Amazon exclusive Dirge and Ramjet status

Thanks for asking the question on our behalf, Super Megatron and props to the design team for providing some kind of answer given their role it the company...it's probably not exactly what we wanted to hear but it's not bad news, either.

Now an interview with Amazon...that would be interesting...

Re: Amazon exclusive Dirge and Ramjet status

Weren't the majority of these confirmed elsewhere as being lost a sea along with the Earthrise wave with Sunstreaker?

Amazon, the true robots in disguise.

Function 1: To serve the public.
Function 2: To make the public dependant on your services.
Function 3: Enslavement via complete and utter dependency.
Function 4: Punishment via denial of service.

Function 5: Classified.

It really is quite sad, isn't it?

Could be, but as far as I've seen from here, TFW, and Seibertron, it's largely fan speculation.

Re: Amazon exclusive Dirge and Ramjet status

For me, what I take away from this thread is that we are fortunate to have a channel to discuss this issue with Hasbro directly via our very own Super_Megatron.

Thanks man

Guess I can postpone customizing G2 Sandstorm and Ramjet into Ramjet and Dirge.
