[unluckiness]

Pssst.

Oops lol

 

[lastmaximal]

Oops lol

Yeah, I think we can only make that joke one more time before reality starts to cave in.

New words would have to be invented to explain why they would deliberately pick Siege Prowl to do a new production run.

Why? I find the (British use of the) classical term to be perfectly functional...

WARNING - NSFW HYPERLINK INCLUDED.

I remember when FP lost the licence and the TFCC shut down, there was a genuine concern that the deep cuts that outlet provided would end. But Hasbro's been committed to making those happen on their own since. And not even just as online exclusives, or limited runs.

I saw a Leader class Fallen based on his Dreamwave design at Walmart the other day. As someone who was a kid when DW was current and it seemed like getting ANY original designs from that run outside of Titanium was a pipe dream, that's really cool.
I mean hell... the current team gave us modern Powerdashers. Powerdashers! And Diaclone repaints! We got a Diaclone Ironhide without it having to be Night Attack Recon Ironhide with a forced in Bayformers reference, which is 100% what the old brand team would have insisted on.
Nope. Just straight up "here's Diaclone Ironhide, enjoy."

Nothing is off the table, and I love it.

We've got 5 Gobot homages in the modern era, which is 5 more than I ever expected.

5? We got 6.

Crasher
Little Foot
Treads
Pathfinder
Bugbite
Road Ranger

 

[Haywire]

Bugbite

I always forget about poor Bugbite! Also, there was a BotBot, Go-Naut, that I have and also forget even though it lives right next to my chair in the Botcave!

..so, yeah, 7 Gobots homages in the modern era!

 

[NovaSaber]

Little Foot

Small Foot
Littlefoot is from The Land Before Time.

 

[Dekafox]

... now I want to see a Cyberworld Smallfoot that becomes a sauropod.

 

[Donocropolis]

... now I want to see a Cyberworld Smallfoot that becomes a sauropod.

That would bring together a lot of things that I loved in the 80's.

 

[wonko the sane?]

I'm not crying, you're crying.

I think the bigger obstacle to getting a Hellwarp is that molds more often than not don't need to be redecoed nowadays. No sense in doing some minor Japanese toyline repaint when they could just pump out more Sky Bytes in Generations subline 2027.

We see both cases, though, like how Twincast was released, but Blaster's been released multiple times. (as I learned this week)

Botcave . . . I may steal that term.

As I don't typically collect BotBots, I just now learned he exists and is now another one I need to hunt down.

 

[Haywire]

I think its in the public domain? lol

Would we have to watch her mother die a tragic tearful death, too? I don't know if I could sit through that again.
