New questions added. We already have more than I know we are gonna be able to get too for our time slot.

I will try to get Todd to give our Brand Team the full list in the hopes that when we run out of time they can answer the rest at their leisure and email em to us. That or I can send them in later once I see which ones we couldn't get too and see if they will answer. I will try. All they can do is say no!

I will try to be kind as well .... My questions Has Hasbro been looking at Amazon and what they are charging for most figures and ships ? What is Hasbro planning to do  with the  crazy pricing that Amazon and other second hand market sellers are charging for figures and vehicles . Hasbro says they have nothing to do with these pricing  But i thinkl otherwise. I feel we deserve a real answer and not a dance around this question such as we will look into this .  Who has $ 650.00 for  TVC  Falcon. or Almost $200 for a Darth Revan figure

My next Question is for years you have heard the cry to bring back Tvc fully articulated figures  and introduce play sets. And for years us loyal collectors who have kept the line going  get turned down and disappointed . We as collectors have been telling you what we want but you assume you know what we want  . What kind of a compromise would Hasbro be willing to do for collectors that want tvc 3.75 fully articulated figures  to come back  without just making an exclusive line that is limited to one retailer .

I thought so too. I am hoping we can get a few of em really answered.

I am gonna see if the ones we don't have time to get too they will answer via email at a later time. All we can do is ask right?

Yeah.
To be honest, especially after the reveals of the new EE Exclusive and the Rogue One figures my opinion of Hasbro hasn't really improved.
From the Legacy and Vintage Collection back to...1978.
This is so unbelieveable, it's off the charts.

Well Todd was able to get some questions in yesterday. Look for me to get em and feature em here soon.

For the ones they didn't get to I am gonna try to get em answered via my Hasbro Contact.

 All very wishy washy, but I hope their future plans for 3.75 come to fruition.
I'd defo be up for a Battlefront set, more comic packs, Clone Wars figures, Collectors Club. Only time will tell.

Just wanted to say how much I appreciate you guys getting in front of the Hasbro team like this.  You go all out, and it's awesome.

Thanks for getting some of my questions in too, I really am glad they were asked.

I also found Steve's answer around the Death Star a bit intriguing... he said, "Can't talk more about Rogue One" products... maybe the damn thing is actually coming... FINALLY?   :P

I read at Rebelscum someone asked if the titaniums were still being made and Hasbro just asked if those were still on the shelves. How about a yes or no answer? Damn.

Its hard to get a straight yes or no as the veterans of these q and a's can attest.

I did find that Death Star playset answer intriguing.

And Justin you are quite welcome. I have to get our Hasbro Contact the questions we couldn't get too.

I just listened to the Q/A. First of all, thanks for your courage asking questions they may not be glad to have to answer to. Especially your follow up questions regarding the 3.75 line.
This is what i felt listening to Steve Evans answers and trying to "read between the lines".
- They seem to understand we collectors of 3.75 super-articulated figures feel kind of neglected but i doubt they'll really make anything about it. We will probably just get a couple exclusive figures just like we had for TFA and that's it.
He made it clear 3.75 stuff is children focused.
In fact, i even felt he was at some point bothered by the many 3.75 related questions. Maybe i'm wrong but...
- On the other hand, he was very enthousiastic when talking about the 6" line. Just compare when he spoke about more 6" vehicles with his answer regarding possible new 3.75 ones.
- Let's see about the possible playsets. I just hope it's not only 6" as well.
I feel a bit like "nothing new under the sun". I hope i'm wrong.
