Hasbro is kicking off the New Year with a fresh round of Q&A grilling. This week we're suggasking 3¾" scale Titanium Speeder Bikes; digging a bit in preparation for Toy Fair 2007; and we've got the skinny on who is getting the Treachery on Saleucami Battle Pack as an exclusive. So let's get to it, shall we?
Galactic Hunter: Titanium action figures seem to have found a nice niche. Is there any chance of seeing some of the cool speeders, like the Return of the Jedi Speederbike, made in metal? This would open the door for a whole new level of detail (similar to Gentle Giant's Speederbike mini-statue).
HASBRO: Keep your eyes peeled… you will see some speederbikes in the mini scale in the future. As far as a full fledged action figure scale, there are no plans for that at this time, but thanks for the suggestion
Galactic Hunter: With half of the year leaked out via retailer solicitation lists, are there any major surprises still in store for us collecting folk at Toy Fair this February? Will we see Hasbro circling the wagons around existing lines, or will there be any new sub-lines introduced?
HASBRO: We are trying to get some surprises there, and there should be a few. You won't really see any new sublines there, either, as most of our lines are already in place at retail. However, we will not be showing any exclusives at Toy Fair, consistent with out past protocol.
Galactic Hunter: 
Through European outlets, images of the Treachery on Saleucami Battle Pack have leaked out, and the set quite obviously includes two Republic Speederbikes. Is this, perhaps, the future for the small-sized vehicles, or is this Battle Pack a one-off? (Is this a Target exclusive?)
HASBRO: This is an exclusive for Wal-Mart, and is not part of the same Battle Pack line that is at all retailers. We are open to thinking of figure/vehicle packs like this for ideas further down the road. Stay tuned…
