Help Us Build the Database / What goes in the item description?

July 21, 2012, 10:18:06 PM

What goes in the item description box now? It says that you put the blurb (tech spec bio) on there, but I did that on a toy that was missing it and it was rejected.

Bugs? On www.shmax.com? Ha ha, you kill me... / Price weirdness in "Contribute Info"

July 21, 2012, 03:36:06 AM

I keep getting requests for info for MSRP's in currencies other than the one I bought the item in. For example, being asked for AU$ MSRP's for United States releases. Also, is there a way to disable the MSRP field, or let it accept "NA" for Happy Meal toys?

ETA: The common theme for getting asked for AU$ is in the US releases of the Power Core Combiners.

Nope, didn't work - they're still there. I've tried that a few times before.

I've been trying to get rid of the Arcee listed in my collection from the Rotorwash Rumble two pack, but no matter what I try, she keeps popping back up in there! The "package contents" tab on the "Edit Collection" screen only returns an error.

I found him at Walmart too, just one of him.

I'm cool either way, though my red pull-tab is in no shape to be photographed any more, as my cat got hold of it last night. It's now very well-chewed. Did Hasbro get the tab made in a catnip factory or something?

Help Us Build the Database / Stealth Force Inferno - pull tab packaging or accessory?

Stealth Force Inferno's red pull tab comes off - there's even instructions for how to do so on the bottom of the package. Is it an accessory, or part of the packaging? He's completely functional without it, and it seems like it's just something to enable people to play with it before buying, but it's included in the stock photos.

Also, he doesn't have an instruction booklet, and he has two missiles (but only space to store one, arrrrgh). I've tried to modify the package contents but that box has disappeared.

YAAAAY my month-long plastic crack famine is over. I found Stealth Force Inferno at Walmart today. And I'm refreshing the tracking page for the package from TFsource.com that is supposed to be delivered today. It has Takara's Animated Cybertron Mode Ratchet. C:

Still no Red Alert here, though. Grrr...

Yeah, I already have Hasbro's version - I meant Takara's Cyb. Mode Ratchet on English-language import sites. I don't trust google autotranslate THAT much. XD But at least this means it will be soon! *waits eagerly*

Uh oh. All I have left is a clear missile...that is until the stores around here actually decide to stock wave 2 of ANYTHING.

I just found the two-pack at my local TRU - yikes on all the variants! I've been trying to find the search-and-rescue symbol on doors variant of Ratchet ever since I learned about it, but no dice so far. So, are these different from the RPMs Nightwatch Bumblebee vs. Patrol Barricade? Is Hasbro just playing mind games now, in an effort to see just what it takes to drive toy collectors bugnuts?

Help Us Build the Database / Re: ROTF Dog Tags - Package photos

OK, going through them in batches to get the package photos up - any way to get the dog tag photos to show up in our collection pages?

Man, I stay away from here for a few days, and look what I miss! But I would have to say that the Legends Starscream that came with Rescue Ratchet waaaaay out-Princes Thundercracker. He's cast in sparkly purple plastic! Sadly I gave him away before I knew about this site, or you'd have a photo of him, too.
