Well, Pulse has sent out a notification that my SS Cheetor is shipping soon. So, I guess they’re saying screw it to the Studio Series in terms of keeping to any sort street date. Hell, given the state of retail I’ve seen around here, I‘m not even hopeful in seeing RotB Studio Series by the...
Too late:
Batgirl (featuring Michael Keaton as Bruce Wayne/Batman) got scrapped, reportedly there was talk of another Keaton Bat-project (Batman Beyond, supposedly) that was also scrapped.
It's the movies.
You got a character with Jazz's alt mode (and a decent resemblance in robot mode), Hound's abilities, who shares the same name as the OTHER movie Mirage which ended up being called Dino.
It's movie Hound all over again.
Y'know, tap water probably wouldn't be good for a mechanical being. Unless from near those fracking places where the water is more explosive than gasoline...
Only teaser online is the Porsche tie in, giving our best look at Mirage in robot mode...but not much else
I’d still love for Hasbro to be cheeky and do that weird “G1 Slicer” thing they did for the Magic set: Wheeljack, deco’d like Armada Wheeljack. TECHNICALLY, Hasbro hasn’t made a proper SG Wheeljack ;)
If that is the response they gave you…it’s just the usual stock response whenever anyone asks about a future product from Hasbro. The usual “corporate speak” is to feign ignorance until something is officially revealed.
As is, I think the line has run longer than I gave it credit for, and I’d...
At this point, given the new direction at DC Media under James Gunn and the lack of any announcement...
I think Young Justice is done. As is, it was pretty damned astounding that the show was revived to begin with. Such things are EXTREMELY rare in television, especially after the 5 year gap...
I think there should be two different threads. One for the film, one for the toys, since I think it IS possible to discuss the toy line without directly addressing the film itself.
LEAKS! For 2024 (Sub-Lined Universe?), JtPrime has posted some Core and deluxe figures to get us a riled up. And does the shorthand name indicate….Rock Lords...
JtPrime has posted more final details on upcoming Generations Selects:
Obviously, Magnificus and Omega Sentinel are out or about to be. For the remaining 3 Selects-
Triggercon Windsweeper- Guaranteed to be a retool of Needlenose. I’m tempted just for the late G1 representation.
Predacon...
That’s the nice things this time around: most of the characters will have Core and Studio Series options by the end of the year. Though, I thought I read that the RotB Studio Series Optimus Prime (supposedly a retool of SS38) was slated for a Target exclusive.
JtPrime has posted new updates...
An interesting tidbit from the Fan Call: the usual guys we see on the Fan Streams do NOT have any involvement with the development of the kids lines. It’s an entirely separate team to which so much fandom ire is directed! I get an image in my head of the Collector guys at the Hasbro brands...
And lo, Hasbro described Siege as being based on More Than Meets The Eye episodes, but after 5 years, we'll have...TWO figures referencing the designs from the episodes. Both retailer exclusive, even!
With Rise of the Beasts, Hasbro has assortments called "Core Deluxe" and "Core Voyager". They are "traditional" Transformers toys marketed under the Rise of the Beasts banner. Think Cyberverse or Earthspark Deluxe figures, but now with a Voyager sized assortment.
