I choose believe there's one insane Takara toy designer in an office who's been making MP Optimus sculpts since MP-01 and every time someone compliments him on how good the new one turned out he shrieks and throws it against the wall before muttering to himself about how he'll get it right this...

It felt like them trying to have it both ways. Doing a comics style game would have sidestepped the need for MCU likenesses but the MCU was the hot thing at the time so they wanted it to evoke that. Without paying for the MCU actors' likenesses. So you get this weird live action looking Marvel...

That is a concern, yes. Thing is I paid this for Liokaiser. I'm not willing to pay $300 for much more.

Probably all of them playing some role. I'll add in... more knowledge of JG1. This isn't the early 2000s where there's like two blurry pics of a Star Sabre toy and a bad fansub of Victory. This stuff is widely known in the West, and widely and easily accessed. James Roberts seemed genuinely...

Hasbro foil stickers are made from concentrated anti-fun.

There were A LOT of 3P gremlins cackling at this being one that would fail. And it's the most successful HasLab ever- not just Transformers. Sorry, your Iron Factory stuff ain't it, broskies

Hail to the (Lion) King.

Hasbro seems to have solved GPS. It's TakaraTomy that won't change their mixtures because f everyone that's why!

I just find a lot of stories mentioning Galactus got "over 30,000." Liokaiser ended up with 34,329. I have to think Liokaiser got more, because "over 30,000" to me reads as "30,000 and some change"

34,000+ That has to be a new HasLab record. It beats Omega Prime's 28,000

And he's totally not Shockwave. Who'd ever say such a thing? That's crazy, man.

Marvel tried to get in on the "live service" game model at the height of the MCU hype, with an Avengers game by Square Enix. The game tried to leverage the MCU's popularity without actually using the MCU likenesses, since that stuff is expensive as hell. So you got a live action-y Captain...

I have no idea why HasTak got away from this for Sunstorm.

Let's light this candle! LET'S SAY GOOOOOOO!

So I picked up the Marvel Legends 20th Anniversary Iron Man. I had wanted this figure when it came out three years ago, but I never bit because they wanted over $30 for it. McFarlane DC Multiverse range from $20-$25 for most single figure releases, and most Marvel Legends figures are about the...

Outside of my JG1 wishlist... Cybertron was probably the last Transformers series I just uncritically enjoyed... Give Cybertron Soundwave the Generations treatment. Cybertron Soundwave is an amazing concept and design that the toy just falls short of doing justice. Another go at it to soften...

I still want a Frenzy and Rumble twopack where they're posed shrugging in package, and nothing actually indicates which is which.
