Hasbro Netherlands Speak - Classics in 2007, lack of TFs in stores and more

Thanks to Supreme Unicron for letting the Trans-Europe Express Group know that he has recieved some answers from Hasbro Netherlands after he recently contacted them regarding the situation of Transformers in Holland. Here is what they had to say.

The TF Classics line will be released in the beginning of 2007.
The Titanium figures will not be released in the Netherlands.
There is no show on Dutch TV due to poor ratings for the recent series.
Toy sales have been bad for the larger toys, which is why stores stopped stocking them.
As Transformers is not 'big' in Holland, they don't promote it that much (it is not financially worth it), but this will change next year because "2007 must become THE Transformers year"

To read the replies in full, you'll need to visit the group.
