I wish these sites would collaborate their questions more--in the Cybertron.ca questions, they ask about other G1 reissues, which was already asked elsewhere, and on TFormers they asked about the QC issues we've been experiencing. They even give the same answer that they gave one of the other sites that specifically mentions parts popping off, which 'was' asked in the question at the other site.
Oddly, TFormers seems to have listed the names of who contributed each specific question. I wonder if this is in response to my "So who's answering these?" bit, if they read the forums at all. They also might have done it because both Bill and Eric answered the one question. (God, those names just don't roll off the tongue as easily as "Bob 'n' Larry," do they?)
Looks like TFormers asked our GI Joe crossover question, and got the same answer we always do, but this time they seem to be indicating "Well, we've at least considered what we'd do if it did happen," which is cool.
I wonder if our small size but generally kickass questions led them to give us better answers than some of the other sites--it sometimes feels like, reading them, the answers are pretty quick and straightforward-based stuff, because the questions are repetitive or downright stupid. Meanwhile, our questions generally seem to be of a high intelligence and kickassery level.
I think it also helps that we discuss the questions and go through and figure out what we really do want to ask. I only pay vague attention, but I think the other sites just kind of have everyone throw stuff into a hat and then the admins pick a couple.
Personally, I'd pass on the Galvy feet question because it's hardly going to be relevant in two months--we'll probably have other questions by then. Movie stuff should be leaking right about then if I remember right, yeah? Though I do support the who-does-techspecs question, especially if we throw in something about who wrote the Movie bios, and what went into them--were certain characters like Brawl or Blackout's bios based on any kind of specific mandate, or are their personalities just right out of the writer's head?
Which has made me think of an entirely different post I have to make now.
EDIT: Kil on ATT posted a list of them (and included us, yay!) and there were four we didn't have:

Yeah, no reason at all.

High point: Nothing. Almost all repetitive or useless (stuff concerning Takara or has already been asked, and a pointless Jetfire question.)

High point: Ironhide is getting a running change with a silver face. Maybe I should stop hunting now?
