1) I remember several years ago there were the Jedi Master Points
auctions. There seemed to be a lot of problems with those. I buy a
LOT of Star Wars figures but I had nowhere near the amount of Jedi
Master points those auctions were going for (I seem to remember the
numbers being in the millions). Can you tell us how that all worked
out? Were those auctions won? Did the winners actually produce the
required POPs to "pay" for the items?
2) Recently it was reported in the news that Hasbro initiated a $200
million stock buyback from Lucasfilm as relates to the Star Wars
License. Can you give us an explanation of what this means in
layman's terms?
3) Can you tell us a bit about the selection process of figures for
a year/collection and the waves it contains... For example, does
Hasbro conceptualize the entire years worth of figures, then present
it to Lucasfilm for approval, or is Lucasfilm in the early planning
stages from the get go? Are the waves designed around the selected
figures to be made that year, or are the wave conceptions what ends
up deciding what is in that years collection (chicken or the egg sort of thing)?
To find out the answers to these questions,
listen to this week's episode!
Got a question for Hasbro?
Post it here
and maybe it will be answered by Hasbro!
