The big two are teaming up on some lines with movies coming out. It'll be interesting to see what else comes of this.

Just board games and other assorted stuff. I wouldn’t expect anything cool like MOTU Transformers.

No but Transformer Hot Wheels were mentioned which leaves the door open for G.I. Joe Hot Wheels.

I think something like a Barbie Transformer is a possibility.

I'd buy Transformers Hotwheels.

I've been tempted by the Transformer micromachine things but just can't pull the trigger. Hotwheels I'd buy up in a second

I think it'll be a bit more than that and I'm really hoping it's more like they let Mattel (Mega Brands) do their brick-build stuff from now on, instead of Forever Clever or in-house stuff. If Hasbro doesn't want to give them access to use GI Joe or Transformers for bricks, maybe they'll dust off some of the other brands, especially ones from Kenner, like MASK.

Yeah, Transformers Hot Wheels will be awesome, and I'd love to see some GI Joe Hot Wheels or MASK Hot Wheels. Or, as I said above, let the Mega guys do what they do with some of them, like MASK or GI Joe and see what they're capable of. I'm not expecting (or wanting) Transforming Barbie, Transforming He-Man, or anything like that, but Mattel does toy cars well and Mega does the brick stuff well, so Hasbro should let them do what they do best.

Despite really enjoying Die Cast Racing I'm not a die cast car collector. However ....

A Mask Hotwheel line might make me pull the trigger on a Rhino from the Mask line.

And the Hurricane for that matter. I'd much prefer them in Mega scale with Mega style figures of course.

Mattel could also make Barbie Joes/Cobras
I'm sure Hasbro has all but given up on 12 inch figures
