Q 1 - Which characters can fans expect to see in action figure form from the two new forthcoming Marvel movies Iron Man and The Hulk and are full
lines from these films planned?

A - Unfortunately, we can't comment on 2008 movie properties at this time.

Q 2 - Have plans been made to release Marvel characters based on their video game appearances circa Marvel vs. Capcom or Marvel: Ultimate
Alliance?

A - We have done some Marvel characters in styles which were inspired by video games and we continue to consider them.

Q 3 - How are build-a-figure characters chosen and which characters are on Hasbro's own build-a-figure wish list?

A- We choose BAFs the same way we choose all of our characters. We get together as a team and brainstorm possibilities. We take collector wants
and wishlists into consideration, the general significance level of the
character and whether or not it makes sense as a BAF. We can't really
disclose our "wishlist" but the selection process is always a fun
discussion!

Q 4 - What Marvel-themed board games can fans plan to see on retail shelves this holiday season?

A - You'll see Spider-Man Operation, Spider-Man Sorry, & Spidey Monopoly just to name a few.

Q 5 - In the past, playsets including multiple figures have been a big
seller during the holiday season. What new playsets can fans expect to
see this year on shelves for the holidays?

A - We have 2 great playsets hitting shelves this fall - The first is a
Spider-Man Webworld Playset which features 2" scale figures and allows
kids to recreate the final climactic battle scene from the Spider-Man 3
movie. This item goes perfectly with our other Webworld products like
Ooze Packs and Stunt Racers. The second is a Spider-Man Super Hero Squad
Playset which is also inspired by the Spider-Man movies - lots of fun play
features for kids and great for storage!
