This is a Transformers board; we talk non-stop, all day every day, about stuff we don't HAVE to buy. It's the entire point of this place. Not a single person here NEEDS to buy a Transformer. Yet nobody is suggesting we curtail complaints about Transformers based on that fact, so I'm genuinely...

I prefer my customer agency to provide for things like not having to spend money on stuff I'm not going to use and not, you know, after the fact justification for selling bloated sticker sets. "You don't have to use all of them" isn't really a solution when it's not USING them I have a problem...

There's no hard and fast rule on the mainline vs studio series. We got G1 Arcee in Earthrise back in 2020, and she got an updated figure in Studio Series' 2022 lineup. Ultra Magnus got figures in Siege (2019), Kingdom (2021) and Studio Series (2023). Ironhide/Ratchet both got figures in...

Missed opportunity with the Rock guys to bring back the concept of Lithone being a planet of rock robots.

Windblade is sold out on pulse already. I'm shocked given the seemingly widespread dislike of the character. Either it was just a vocal minority, or the break they took from her helped her popularity. Happy to see it, other than it's going to make it harder for me to get ahold of her. :P

The three biggest Omega's Omega Supreme: Already a titan, but the Animated and Energon Versions aren't Omega Lock: To come with Primus Omega Prime: The said no Optimus in Haslab, but plans can change. Or they just used "Omega" to mean "big" or "important" and it has nothing to actually do...

It sounds like combined mode just uses some of Tidal Wave now, instead of the whole thing, but JTPrime did confirm he is indeed a Titan, as mentioned.

Commander/Titan don't get revealed until next year, that's been the case for ages now. They dud gave us the biggest hints we've ever had before, though. The Haslab thing is kind of weird, I'll agree, but maybe they want to let the Giant Man one finish first.

Just remembered Magmatron was Beast Wars Neo, not Beast Wars Second. Now we'll need a Big Convoy.

They usually leapfrog Studio Series and the other Generations line. We got studio series last fan friday, so it's Legacy this time. Next time will be Studio Series again, likely.

Cores: Energon Megatron and Tasmanian Kid look good; Iwas going to skip the BW2 characters, but then there was that Magmatron tease, dammit. The rocks are interesting but I need to cut back so they're on the chopping block. Deluxes: Chase looks surprisingly good, the rock car looks like a...

I just want to know what the next Haslab is.

I've seen talk of how Power Rangers doesn't really have listings for next year so speculation is it's going on a bit of hiatus while Hasbro reevaluates the franchise.

Given the models in the show are based directly on toy CAD files rather than the toys being approximations of the characters on the show, the toys pretty blatently had to come first.

The movies frequently suck with names anyway, so I just chalk that up to him actually being movieverse Bulkhead that they threw a vaugely related G1 name onto.

Availability?

For some reason I thought you were talking about ER Prime and I was like "Hey, his trailer isn't quite THAT bad."

Literally the first paragraph Uh huh. Walking Dead and Invincible, not enough to be a credible threat to the big two. Transformers and GI Joe, though? Look out Marvel and DC!!! Please ignore the last time comics tried that. This time will be different!

He's correctly sized to fight Omega Supreme, which is a big plus for me.

Arcee is also a deluxe, not six voyager (or bigger) sized figures sold in a boxset. It's an easier ask that people do a $25 upgrade than a $200+ one.
