Hasbro's
latest Q&A! is here, featuring a bit of Clone Wars news, and sadly, a no
comment on another recent rumored item...
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.
We've seen some images leaked out of a Battle of Hoth Ultra Battle Pack.
The images seem to indicate that it's a Target exclusive. Can you give us
some more info on this set? What's the figure lineup? What's the suggested
retail price? And can we expect more of these Ultra Battle Pack type sets
which feature vehicles and/or playsets in the near future?
A.
No comment.
Q. There seems to have been a significant falloff in news
posted at
http://www.hasbro.com/starwars/. Has
the Q&A process taken over as the
primary means of conveying Hasbro Star Wars news to the collecting
community?
A. That is true. The Q&A is not meant to replace the product news, but
we
have been behind. We expect to get caught up and current in the next few
weeks.
Q. A recent collecting
site rumor report stated that we may see the V-19
Torrent fighter and Trade Federation Homing Spider Droid released in the
2008 assault vehicle assortment. Seeing how 2008 is set to be the year for
Clone Wars, and both of these items are part of the Clone Wars era, can we
expect to see these pieces next year?
A. We don't like rumor lists.partly because they reveal spoilers, partly
because they could build up false expectations. Since it's too early to
reveal any of our farther-reaching 2008 plans, we'll just say that some of
what you read may be true, but we cannot confirm which parts.
Check back in a few weeks and we'll post
the next round of Questions (and answers) as soon as Hasbro offers them.
