Speaking of upgrade kits, if there was an actual Headmaster available for Minerva, I would probably have pre-ordered her. As it is, it's just a pale imitation of the original toy and not worth my time or money.
Wasn't she de-Headmaster-ified at the end of Masterforce, though? Couldn't this just be, like, her from that point in time?

Possibly, but then again, couldn't Hasbro just release several G1 characters as non-transforming figures in the mainstream line, due to them becoming Actionmasters?

So you're saying that regular robot Minerva WASN'T a Victory character?

No, they are saying that Minerva making it to mainline release is a victory as a lot of the Japan only characters aren't getting toys that offen, or when they do, they are either apart of a boxset or pretty much getting not getting anything example Beast Wars 2 & Neo, Lio Convoy has been mainly repaints of other figures and the upcoming Legacy Evolution figure is his first major figure since the Robot Masters line and that was a Japan only line of figures

Having a headmaster would have been nice, but honestly if there was budget available I'd rather it have been spent on making the alt mode less risible.

Making her a headmaster would probably mean they'd reuse the TR style headmaster, which would make her somewhat bobbleheaded given the smaller size and slimmer build.

I'm honestly not knowing WHERE to put Minerva....my Masterforce shelf or the new Victory shelf.

The lack of a Headmaster says I put her in the Victory shelf, but then my Masterforce shelf will be Minerva-less....

Decisions decisions.

Put her on the Masterforce shelf until they make a verison with a head that converts, her role in Victory was extremely minor, just like Wheeljack's role (how he came back to life, I do not know)

The Wheeljack you THOUGHT you knew was secretly Wheeljack's evil twin brother. The REAL Wheeljack had amnesia after hitting his head while fainting after finding out that he was accidentally switched-at-birth due to the nurse's split personality disorder and was actually the heir to the Cybertronian General Products Corporation fortune.

Right now I have shelves for my G1 bots and Cons (Really pre-Beast Wars, so EuroG1, JapanG1 and G2 go here as well) and then a shelf for Neo-G1 characters as well as characters that originate from other continuities.

Minerva is going squarely on the G1 shelf.
