Link for Hasbro discusion and..

Post by Dawfydd »

Well Hasbro have finally taken a step in the right direction both with the sail barge and opening lines of communication with fans ; http://pulse.hasbro.com/news/just-annou ... nversation

It asks for 3 suggestions of figure's you'd like to see so maybe we can create a list of figures that need to be made and others that need re-releases or updated figures (Qui-gon and the Emperor come to mind 3.75)

And of course spreading word to any fan and getting them to leave any kind of comment is a good idea, to show hasbro they need a better format and that the fans will speak up.

Though you can leave a comment on the link provided on their instagram page (https://www.instagram.com/hasbropulse/) the dude asks questions daily and the previous link says the instagram is more likely to be listened to, so go forth have your opinion shared!

Just wondering, who here would buy the sail barge if they opened it up for international customers? (I would)

I would certainly *like* to... whether or not the budget could handle it in one hit is a separate matter.

Not to mention the GST bill when it finally ships - at US$500, it's well over the NZ$400 maximum threshold for importing without Customs collecting GST on it. So on top of an expensive toy and likely expensive shipping you've got an expensive import bill. By my rough figures, you're looking at about NZ$800 GST inclusive before you even factor in any cost of shipping...

Still want though :D

It looks like this open discussion was only a week long "event" but there was an abysmal showing of hasbro fans, so i'm not sure they understood just what a *censored* job they have been doing lol.
