I'm thinking I might pick up the Megatron/Bumblebee set, as I really dig that cannon Megs, and train Bumblebee looks pretty good. Starscream is decent, Prime is meh, and they both seem too brightly colored for the aesthetic. I usually like bright colors but HoS is something that actually needs...

The CW version certainly has a lot of drawbacks that could use fixing, but the new version looks like 1 step forward, 1 step back in a lot of ways. They posted official pics of Hook and Long Haul and while the latter definitely looks a lot better, Hook still looks bad to me, with the same...

Yeah, unfortunately it's the 'cheaper' running change with the plastic tires and no paint on either head. I also don't know if I'll ever transform SG Magnus again. Damn small pegs...

Months ago @Sabrblade had requested a group shot of all the G1 Ultra Magnuses, including Classics with the Fans Project City Commander trailer. I finally had the chance to dig out some toys! I only have SG Magnus of the Siege/Kingdom mold but figured it'd work... Unfortunately I couldn't find...

Could be. I wonder if in that case they would've tried for something like Helbat (since Hela seems okay for Marvel to sell). Heckbat?

I didn't like TM2 Cybershark's grey and neon green look, but his original color scheme (blue, off-white, copper) has always been one of my favorite color schemes and I'd be interested in seeing it applied to the TM2/Sky-Byte molds, even if it's not technically the correct use. I might be alone...

$300's a bit steeper than I'd like but they're supposedly Voyager size components, and there's a lot I like about how this looks. I'm in! ('Killbison' and 'Deathcobra' are ok, but Hellbat has to be Ellbat? Must be a trademark concern rather than a "too violent" thing).

I definitely have the same feeling... so far the Skybound run's theme, overwhelmingly to me, seems to be "war is hell." We see the effects it has on everyone - Optimus struggles with bringing the conflict to a new fragile world, Cliffjumper hesitates in becoming a cold-blooded killer, Ultra...

I must admit I'm a bit surprised at how Starscream was able to turn his situation around, figured he'd have to spend an issue or two at least enslaved by the guys who dug him up, but he could took care of them (and got his cadre of Decepticons back) no problemo. Finally took some time to catch...

Yeah the legs look a bit stubby, but still, gotta admit this makes a lot better impression on me than it did in the first pics. Think I might pick this up now.

Maybe it's just the lack of something to compare for scale, but he looks kinda tiny. Thought it was a Deluxe at first. Though I suppose that may just be the way things are moving in general as they always do as costs rise...

Scrapper is 1 of 5 but Bonecrusher is 2 of 6 eh?

Yeah that's kinda where I'm at. On the fence and would prefer to wait, but waiting might not be an option (except waiting for a later gift set release or something). The overall aesthetic is closer to CW Devastator than I'd hoped. Long Haul will be the interesting one to see. Scrapper looks...

I wouldn't be surprised if it's a pretool for an eventual future (SS86?) Megatron.

Transformers #13 out today.

Transformers #12 came out last week (9/11), surprised to not see any comments here yet especially since it wraps up the second arc. My thoughts: On re-read I did like it more than the first read, but I still do have some reservations.

Thanks. I was kinda wondering if the chest was supposed to be gunmetal but was looking at the other toys and concluded it was bronze (not taking the time to think that they might well be based off the same misconception). Weirdly it does sorta look a bit bronze to me still in some of those...

Was cautiously optimistic for G2 Breakdown even though I'm not a fan of the mold (especially how annoying the spoiler is in robot mode) but the end result looks pretty disappointing - dark purple instead of magenta-pink, silver robot mode chest instead of bronze, green is a bit too minty. Ah...

Damn I didn't know this existed, now I'm sad I missed it - like you say, a full collection of all the Universe profiles in one place is super handy. Something to hunt for I suppose.
