Exactly! Harmony Gold wishes Hasbro made their toyline.

Finally the shoe is on the other foot... usually HG likes to bully smaller game or toy companies since they don't have the resources to fight back in court even if the law is on their side.

Ehn...maybe. I'm not sure Hasbro wouldn't just sit on it even worse than Harmony Gold. Too similar to Transformers. At best we might get a sub-line of Transformers that are inferior in quality and design to their Japanese counterparts.
Robotech is too niche for Hasbro, really. Mattel would be more likely to pump something out over Mattycollector. If it didn't have mass-retail appeal (which Robotech currently doesn't, really), Hasbro wouldn't likely even bother. Nah, Hasbro probably wouldn't even have batted an eye at doing Robotech toys. Too much direct competition with Transformers. Plus Harmony Gold would have to ditch their contract with Toynami. |

so what if Hasbro pulls all the veritech boosters and/or skystrikers, seals the sets back up and sells the rest?
The rest of the set should not be confiscated after all. Just the jets. repackage it without Jetfire, call him another seeker jet. paint him silver or chrome and call him Silverbolt!

I bet Hasbro is thinking they should have went with a seeker repaint instead.

Interesting, I look forward to see how this pans out for Hasbro. As a fan of Robotech, Jetfire on the SDCC box set does remind me of Robotech not Transformers. Unless I reminisce on the TV episode when Jetfire was found frozen. I guess I better hold off my 2nd set I had for trade until this issue works itself out.

Of course, they'd have to -have- comics and toys in order for people to buy them....

There was actually some stuff on display at SDCC. Nothing to write home over though. |
