Hasbro's Questions & Answers #7

Posted by Chuck | August 04, 2006 at 05:25 PM ET

     Check out the latest Q&A directly from Hasbro...     Don't forget, you can submit questions in our forums and we'll try to get as many as possible submitted to Hasbro. We can send only three questions per week, so make sure they are good ones! Now, on to this weeks Questions and Answers directly from Hasbro.


Q. Hi I am curious about certain star wars figures that I get in Canada. Why is there no pictures or artwork on the card backs here but all of the other figures from the U.S. and Europe have a shot from the film or the picture on the back? Is Canada a sort of clearance warehouse for a lot of Star Wars merchandise? We need more Canadian "Exclusives" because we have no Target of Best Buy or KB toys. Thanks for hearing me out. —DARTH DAVE

A. The backs (and sometimes bottom) of the carded figure packaging is often changed by market to meet the requirements of importing product into that particular country, or because the assortment is different than the product offered to the U.S. market.  We are working on getting U.S. exclusives wider distribution in Canada.

Q. Do you look at fans' customs of figures to get ideas for desirable characters that haven't been made or for improvements over previously made figures?
—Boshuda

A. We don't intentionally review customs for ideas. Our design team has more ideas for figures (and improvements) than we can possibly get to in any year.
 

Q. How does Hasbro generally feel about Star Wars customizing (figures, ships etc.) in general? —Boshuda

A. The Star Wars fan base is a truly great community, and the depth of passion, energy and creativity is amazing.  Our team is driven by this same passion, and it's great to know that this similar enthusiasm is out there on a massive scale in the fan community.


Check back next week and we'll post the next round of Questions (and answers) as soon as Hasbro offers them.
