Hot Discussions: Is the Super Hero Squad Line Dead?
Every so often a really hot topic comes up on the message board and we’re going to take a minute to highlight some of the better ones when they come up. This week, Teacher of Madness brought up a doozy: Has the Super Hero Squad toy line been sacrificed for wider marketing? Good points have been brought up on all aspects: the SDCC exclusive being targeted at fans of the shows, whether or not we’re currently in a slow-down, the importance of movie sublines, unreleased figures… lots of great points. Head over to the message board to join in the discussion!

Jango’s Slave I and the Episode III Starfighter Galactic Heroes Out
Rebelscum has two pieces of awesome Galactic Heroes news, which is good because so far 2010 Galactic Heroes news has been pretty slow going!
First, the long awaited Escape from Kamino (aka, Jango Fett’s Slave I) and Attack on the Invisible Hand (aka Anakin’s Episode III Starfighter) have been spotted at a Walmart in Oklahoma! Second, new Galactic Heroes sticker sheets have been found in some sets! Ahsoka Tano, Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi and the Clone Trooper are all represented. Head over to the Galactic Heroes message board to talk!
Transformers: Good News/Bad News
First, the bad news… it looks like Robot Heroes may have joined Adventure Heroes, M-Pire and Toy Box Heroes in the Hasbro Heroes graveyard. Normanb258 shared this over on the message board but apparently Parry Game Preserve asked a very delicate question regarding Robot Heroes, and got a sad answer:
Preserve: Do you plan to continue the Robot Heroes line beyond the current movie figures?
Hasbro: We do not have any plans to continue with this expression of Transformers past the ROTF line.
So now you want good news? Hasbro has released pictures of some upcoming Transformers figures and we’ve got them over in the Transformers Gallery. One warning for those that don’t collect the line, Rampage may make you want to start. Here’s the rundown:

On an unrelated note, our webhost was migrating servers today, so for a chunk of time we were unavailable. Sorry for the inconvenience, but fingers crossed, it should mean faster and more efficient future internetting! As always, head over to the Rumor Buster message board to discuss.
