[OT] I now work at Hasbro

[Dr Midnight]

I was just hired to a contract position in Hasbro's design department, and I'm quite excited. Thought I'd share the news. I'll apparently be working in the Playskool division working on a new packaging scheme (so I'm told).

First order of business is to cut the entire D&D line in favor of a new Mr. Potato Head collectible card game. Studies show the demographic will love it. WON'T you, demographic?

Congrats on the job Doc!

I can just see the new packaging for the new Vek doll! With the Tsunami horse!

For those of you who don't know what I am talking about read Doc's story hour here

Congrats, Doc! That's great news.

Potato Head collectible card game? Thank god someone finally realised this! I don't know how I would have gotten through the next forty years without a Potato Head Collectible Card Game...

[KnowTheToe]

Congrats, but should we be worried about insider ears turning us in when we critique WoTC?

You are now officially THE MAN!

Be careful, Big Brother is watching.

Say "hi" to Wulf for me...

 

[Dr Midnight]

Wulf works there? What does he do?

Congrats, and have fun.

Can I get an autographed copy of the new game when it comes out?

I won't be satisfied until I get my PotatoClix and
Potato RPG!

ears, or nose to remove when you're hit.
Finally, wage the veggie war you've always dreamed of.
Take your potato from a level 1 Bud all the way up to a
level 20 Tubermensch."

i heard rumors that the Potato RPG was going to have more of a horror angle and try to cash in on the White Wolf crowd...
