    Hasbr-uh-oh - Business and Tariffs Discussion

    First I'd heard of SS86 ending next year, but it immediately calls to mind two thoughts: There really aren't many more characters to do in SS86. Between the releases already done, leaks for this year, and even some early leaks for next year, who's even left? All that come to mind for me are...

    Siege Alpha Strike and Phantom Strike sets getting re-released?

    One of those old internet rumors is how I ended up picking a username. Back around 2000-2001, when we knew that Car Robots would be getting released as Robots in Disguise, but before we knew all the details, there was a rumor about how Gigatron's name would be handled. Basically, the rumor was...

    I had Devastator, Superion, Bruticus, Abominus, and Monstructor. As mentioned, Abominus got traded away. Devastator, Superion, and Bruticus are still in crates somewhere I think, but they were among the toys I played with the most, so they're not in good shape. In particular, Devastator...

    Siege Alpha Strike and Phantom Strike sets getting re-released?

    I'd much rather see other seekers that are still missing get released with the molds they already have. Sunstorm and Bitstream (Siege mold to be consistent with the scene and Hotlink/Nacelle) and Slipstream (from ER, not Windblade) are the biggest ones I still want. Blackout to go with...

    I'm dealing with this, too. I was getting by for a while. Our basement was finished, but my wife never liked going downstairs after our kids were born, so she ended up just treating it like a dumping ground for all the stuff we couldn't fit upstairs. I eventually just carved out an area that was...

    My pecking order as a kid probably went something like: Devastator Bruticus Predaking Superion Abominus Monstructor Computron Menasor Piranacon Defensor

    I really regret some of my stupidity as a kid. I had Abominus. I traded him to a friend, I think for Slag and maybe another TF or two. I think the others might have been Action Masters. I really, REALLY regret that.

    How do you display your Combiner Teams?

    I like both combined and individual modes, and enjoy transforming them back and forth. But when it's time to put them on the shelf for a while, as others have mentioned, the combined form takes up less shelf space. Also, individual bots would be a waste of the space I have in my display case.

    They cancel the order if it fails to get the 10k needed for funding. But if your backing is contingent on unlocking the 13k tier and it ends up at something like 12k, you're potentially still on the hook for something you don't want. It's a moot point though. We've seen how these projects go...

    Thread of Thoughts, Questions (and Maybe Even Answers) That Don't Deserve Their Own Thread

    The mounting point for Megatron's cannon is in the middle of the cannon. Towards the back end, sure, but you've got that big section at the back that flares out behind where it mounts to his arm. Lets it mount to his forearm without dragging on the ground if he lets his arm hang down...

    Well, of course Scattershot will include an attachment. The real question is, how will Hun-Gurrr incorporate it when he gets retooled from Silverbolt too? :p

    Studio Series discussion

    I hope both yes and no. I'd love to get both. But I know I shouldn't spend anywhere near that much money on repaints. But I also know I'd be so disappointed if they existed and I didn't get them. So I really hope they do get made this time around, and I also really hope they don't to spare me...

    Maybe! I have yet to watch Victory all the way through, but everything I've seen suggests it doesn't touch on much about either the Brainmasters or Breastforce partners. Given how other characters with animal bot modes have been handled, I could see them distinguishing based on that. Kinda...

    I showed my wife the Liokaiser reveal video last night, of course introducing them as the Breastforce. She, of course, gave an eyeroll of disgust, spent a while grumbling, and asked just, "Why?" I, of course, answered, "Because Japan." It did get me thinking a bit though: Headmasters...

    He's a Decepticon combiner, looks good, and is a big upgrade over the only version of him that I have (CW). So I'm all in.

    Hasbro "Transformers Timelines" comic packs

    I'd be really tempted by Megatron if he were available on his own. Starscream is interesting, and I would take him if he were the one packed in with Megatron, or if there were more HoS Decepticons to team him up with. But I have no interest in OP or Bumblebee, and confirming that it's just those...

    In theory, I like forearm better. I never really liked the idea of cannons mounting to the upper arms. Even where it's locked in as a part of the design, like on the seekers, it still just seems weird to me. In Galvatron's case, though, having such a large cannon with the mounting point all the...
