    Hasbr-uh-oh

    He was cracking well before then. The cave BS was a fair bit before the pandemic (right? My sense of time is forever in shambles). And just before this purchase was when he suddenly and explicitly came out swinging on the side of the Republicans (just ahead of an article on sexual impropriety...

    I hope so, because if they're both red or both green that would be incredibly frustrating.

    Transformers: Age of the Primes toyline discussion || update: Prima, Red Alert

    I'm still wondering if I can talk myself into more Leader class Dinobots, but this 2-pack is at least convenient. Now to wonder which colors which will get. I'd rather a red Slug and green Snarl, so maaaaybe. Horri-bull and Animated Nemesis are welcome. I hope the other two in what's likely to...

    There was a combining gimmick? Oh, wait. Is it like a Brave situation where it's partsforming?

    I mean, there have been so many more substantial cases where our faith in where the bar lies in terms of good taste and even just common decency has been shown to be severely misplaced. After the last four years, and certainly after the last four WEEKS, a case of "everything is someone's G1"...

    If they're averse to weapons, just use Rong, who can be fudged as a doorway security scanner thing.

    Transformers: One - New Animated Prequel coming September 20th, 2024 - New Toy Official Images!

    Per the wiki: In May 2023 (a month after it was revealed at CinemaCon in April 2023), Paramount announced it was being moved from July 2024 to September 2024. No reason is given in the linked article, but the linked April 2024 trailer launch article notes that the move gets One further away from...

    Yeah, "hey, this thing I remember fondly is on a platform I can watch here? Cool, let's see it again" is a considerably different situation from "Since you loved that thing from a decade ago, how about going out to see the newest one in that series now?". Kind of like how our to-watch or...

    All this "if it released in x, y would have destroyed it" just reminds me that the movie released in a window of its own and still made peanuts. At least here it would have a reason (and tbh it might still have made more since it'd be a season when people are in more of a moviegoing mood).

    The Repaint Concept Thread

    Very much the same here. Loved seeing a nod to it in the Cyberverse Spark Armor Shockwave's satellite armor, but this is definitely a design that should be realized full-size.

    To be fair, stuff was kind of happening in those five years, and our sense of time has definitely been warped. It doesn't help that the first theatrical thing greeting people after that was Transformers: More of The Same.

    I don't disagree with brand fatigue, but I'd contend it's movie vs movie, not movie vs the various shows. Transformers as a theatrical thing needed a break. Needs a break. After this long of being a constant presence in theaters, it gets harder to create a fresh and interesting experience...

    Was content to pass on this mold since the Windblade one really wasn't doing it for me with what felt like a mishmash of shapes with a cockpit glued to the top of it in altmode. Slipstream's colors in altmode mitigate that effect quite a bit, and even the robot mode torso looks a bit better...
