I'm going to take us into deranged suggestion territory and say that, now that we've seen Lego's take on Transformers, we should get Hasbro's take on Lego vehicles.

Chris McFeely pointed out that the new Ruckus doesn't actually match the photo that was on TFWiki--in comparison to the TFWiki/Seibertron photo, both the deco on the arms and the sculpted shock absorbers on the knees (which are also based on a sticker on the original toy) are "upside down."

Fans mad about the latest perfectly fine Deluxe have been promising me this for something like 15 years and still nothing.

We got a Carnivac in 1988. I'm not saying he couldn't use an update, but he's not a comic-only Transformer to begin with.

I like The Motor Master, but unfortunately(?) this will not translate into a purchase as I already have the Botcon one and feel no particular need to own two of him. Not at the same pricepoint, at least. Make a Core version and we'll talk.

I knew not getting Warpath or Gears would pay off. Easy buy. (I don't have Cosmos either, but that wasn't a deliberate decision.)

One of the reasons I didn't expect a G1-colored Mainframe to ever happen was that his altmode only has any meaning in Ark colors. This is certainly a solution, and it doesn't look nearly as bad as I'd imagine if you described it to me, but I can't shake the mental image of a kid who's taken off...

Got Magmatron. Transformed Magmatron for the first time. Maybe someday I'll do it again. What a chore that ended up being. I don't necessarily agree with this assessment but I love the way you put it.

Speak for yourself, I expect Tidal Wave to go great with Legions.

I've bought several soundtracks lately. Most of them were digital downloads. Some of them were actual CDs. Clearly both of these are things that it is still possible to do and that other companies think is worth the time and effort of offering.

That doesn't mean it isn't still a dick move on Botcon's part. Or bizarre that their phrasing seems to imply they think whether it's fine depends on whether it's posted on Facebook or on Twitter...?

I like the "R2-D2 drawn from memory by someone who can't remember which one of Star Trek and Star Wars is the one with Dark Vader" too.

That's what would get me to buy him, honestly.

Look on the bright side. If nobody actually wants this, that means eBay won't be flooded with tiny handless Optima in 2026.

Yeah, that doesn't even look like an $80 toy by IP Infringing Product standards, let alone by actual retail Transformer standards.

I can see how you got that, but I was more just referring to how he costs more than the Springers I already have in general while not seeming compelling as a replacement for them.

Ah, for Transformers fans who want Metalhawk but are too homophobic for the existing one.

Hm. Very nice-looking toys, but it's hard to feel like Bumblebee and Springer are toys I particularly need or want. Springer especially since he's been bumped up a pricepoint.
