Deleted line(s) 23 (click to see context) :
* ScrewedByTheNetwork: The series never aired on terrestrial UK television (The UK being the largest sales for the Toyline) due to laws over toy advertisement. (Toys may be made from existing shows, but shows may not be aired if they are based on existing toys). Either Hasbro wasn't aware or forgot, meaning the series was canceled due to poor viewings and sales.
