And one Starscream for a punching bag.

Oh just make him Shockwave and be done with it!

Got it! Thanks

 

[PrimalxConvoy]

Oh dear, they really dialled-in the remolded parts for this one. Not only is it far too small to go with Haslab Fire Convoy, but they didn't even bother to remold the car mode or even paint decent flames on it

 

[Salt-Man Z]

That robot mode is gorgeous. It's really too bad the vehicle mode (which isn't terrrrible) looks nothing like his old Viper form.

(And I know haterz gunna hate, but that original Side Burn toy remains one of my favorite TFs to transform. Yes, it's ridiculously fiddly, but there's a certain joy to be had in practicing it over and over until it can be done smoothly, like a Rubik's Cube.)

 

[The Predaking]

It definitely could use some better flames!

 

[wonko the sane?]

Do you still need the degree in theoretical physics to transform him though?

 

[The Mighty Mollusk]

It's his pre-Earth form. He hasn't scanned a Viper yet. That'll be my head canon, anyway.

Darn it, don't come up with such good ideas to make me want this thing.

 

[wonko the sane?]

Oh hey, I got an email while out shoveling snow.

BBTS: Pre-order Processing Soon - Transformers: Legacy Evolution Core Dinobot Snarl (Standard Grade)

Well, that's a thing then.

So was Gears's chestplate coming in the box as an accessory always a well-known thing? Mine just arrived and I thought I was going to have to put in for a replacement at first, until someone else pointed out it's in the box - I hadn't opened it yet so that I could show that it came that way. I just don't recall ever hearing about it before now, though Seibertron had an article about it from mid-March.

 

[Haywire]

I feel like some of the in-box pics showed a lack of a chestplate, but I'm not sure it was really well-documented, no.

 

[Princess Viola]

It's mentioned on the wiki, at the very least.

Man, we knew Sideburn’s car mode wasn’t going to be any good from Shadow Striker but actually seeing it somehow makes it worse. It’s shaped closer to a shoe than a sportscar and they couldn’t even bother to give it better a flame pattern. The great colors are wasted on it.

 

[LordGigaIce]

Yeah, SS86 Megatron is definitely the most "just curious to see what they do here" upcoming figure. I'm guessing it's just going to be the most cartoon-accurate robot mode they can do that transforms into a tank that looks like it's made out of gun parts.

I'm just hoping they get the head right. They seem to bat around .500 on Megatron faces. Siege looks great, but Earthrise looks a little goofy.

The troll part of me wants to see them go full on Walter P38 upside down and call it a submarine

But that's not happening

Honestly an ER redo with Sunbow colours and a new head would be fine. If underwhelming

 

[Rhinox]

So apparently the entire next wave is shipping from Pulse. Mine should be here tomorrow.
. . . . . really wish a few pieces had been delayed. I could have used the extra money this week.

 

[Shadhausen]

Mine arrived yesterday and today.

 

[Lobjob]

I just don't know why the front of the car had to look like that. I love the robot mode sooomuch, but that car mode is very confusing. Vipers are just so pretty. Definitely gonna have to consider it his Cybertronian mode.

 

[Echowarrior]

My preorders from Pulse arrived today. It was probably the one thing that went right for me today too.
