Wow.

ALL of the Cyberworld stuff is banned at YouTube in Japan. I've had to watch some of the videos that some kindly people have uploaded to Reddit instead.

Funnily enough, every show that's been banned over here, I've not really bothered with, even if the toys came out much later for them.

I've no time or interest for geoblocking.

So, Hasbro Pulse is doing "Power Days" with some discounts. I was just REALLY amused to see them decide to use, of all things, Cyberworld Armor Up Optimus Prime for the artwork. Because Pulse is NOT going to be stocking Cyberworld.

I had to make a trip to Iowa City and so I stopped at Scheels...

It's a fun toy, probably not worth the $17.99 they had marked on it, but pretty solid. I'll definitely be on the lookout for the smaller figures, though!

I will say, this design would lend itself well to a Giant Purple Griffin figure with some partial remolding...

He's a... four-legged dragon with... smokestacks... and airplane wings.

Would YOU wanna be the one to tell him his alt mode doesn't make sense?

He's CLEARLY a Turbojet Dragon. Or Jet-mecha Dragon.

He's GLORIOUS

 

[Sabrblade]

He is a two-eyed, two-horned, flying purple people eater.

What a sight to see.

I thought from previous posts that it was just the mustache that was added to an otherwise Galvatron-y head (there's an image, eh). But that head basically IS Rodimus Unicronus, just with a few tweaks like the circles at the base of the crest and the back-sweeping side fins. The stache, the base helmet shape down to the sides of the head, and the red shades are all right there. If that wing backpack pointed the opposite direction in robot mode it'd add to the vibe even more.

This Return to Dragon Galvatron is baffling, which is very on brand I guess.

Oh, I just meant that while we can freely watch Takara Tomy's Japanese Transformers cartoon stuff, it just seems kinda rude that people in Japan aren't afforded the same courtesy for Hasbro's stuff.

It makes sense to me.

Sort of.

Exactly this. There's really no call for it these days.
