The thing is that you're taking it too personally.
Nothing has been lost because the Hasbro team hasn't even done anything yet. Maybe if they release a new Zandar that is the version that appeared in Retalliation, then you can say Hasbro doesn't care. There are many other characters that will probably have a higher priority than Zandar. Just because there is no talk about it, it doesn't mean everything that you felt was canon is lost. Maybe if you just ask people what they like about Zandar and Zarana, and not keep chiming in every few posts about what you feel they should be, then people would be more receptive and maybe you'll get a more positive discussion. Remember, these are toys and people can think what they want Even when I played, I didn't follow everything and just played and imagined the characterization however I saw fit. I always had Scarlett and SE together, but I'm sure there are some that follow the cartoon and always put Scarlett and Duke together. It's what you want to do. I think if Hasbro eventually releases a Zandar in the fashion they did for Zarana, then you can develop any backstory you want. You need to stay positive and make the posts about Zandar and Zarana more a fan experience instead of constantly pushing your feelings (be it canon or not). That's just gonna push people away. Then Lenny or Emily, if they see the posts and all they see is negativity, then that might end up working against your wish of seeing Zandar released again regardless of whether a story goes with it or not.

Just remember that the characters were developed in the comics. Most of what you love about them came from the comics (in some cases, comics that are less than a decade old), not the toys, so don't expect TOO much from the Classified version.

Why do you think Mud Wasp has anything close to any influence?

She's friends with some of the Hasbro Joe crew and Hasbro has looked at her LinkedIn Profile.

Apologise in advance for the lengthy scrawl. Tried to be as succinct as humanly possible.
If I possessed that sorta power of persuasion/degree of influence, the brand would have already been renamed "GI Jaye" ages ago. I presume what she is referring to is that I tend to get my emails answered, while others here appear to be repeatedly ignored. Quote:
they made it seem like they were going to introduce Zandar along with Zarana (I wasn't the only one who thought this), first saying "friends come in multiples" (and it was Storm Shadow), then "Zarana needs a friend" (and it was Dusty.) So why would you say that they don't, when they are aware of it?

Half the Battle: Zarana Half the Battle: Zandar Quote:
Anyways, you should at least take solace in the fact that you now have your own forum to debate/discuss this topic ad infinitum.

"separated through time/space"
And I am trying to see that their original intent as twins is not lost/ignored. @Mud Wasp - I assure you, they experience more joy out of life than I do. I still don't understand why they would tease like that. It's not nice.

The answer is so obvious it's staring you right in the face: Zandar needs to be wearing hot neon pink assless leather chaps!!
