  1. Transformers Legacy toyline

    The Legacy reveals are..well we kind of figured that out with the line art Hasbro showed a bit back. I DO think Armada Prime will be a nice entry, though. Skipped the Ark and Nemesis has even less interest to me, even if it ended up with a Purple Griffin mode. Curious on Buzzworthy, though...
  2. Ninja Turtles - Cowabunga!

    According to the Toyark, distributors have started to post listings for next summer's TMNT movie line. The most interesting thing is that the company noted is NOT Playmates Toys. It seems McFarlane Toys, hot off the Avatar license, will be producing toys this time around. To me, this is a...
  3. Transformers Legacy toyline

    No, it's the cost of designing, producing and appropriately distributing different packaging for different markets. As much as we can bemoan the standardization at play, I feel Hasbro probably DOES save money doing so. Instead of making sure the Euro packaging ends up in Europe, or having to...
  4. Transformers Legacy toyline

    For you? Probably not much aside from gelling with other recent Generations toys. BUT, for someone who wasn’t able to get an Animated Prowl FIFTEEN YEARS AGO…it might be a more cost effective solution than trying to hunt down one on the secondary market. I think it bears repeating that, if you...
  5. Transformers Retro series (Walmart TFTM Reissues)

    It’ll just be refreshing to see a reissue that isn’t a Prime, Hot Rod, a seeker, Astrotrain or Cassette player
  6. Transformers movie: Rise of the Beasts toys

    Most retailers, including Hasbro Pulse, has the release date for the preorders as "April 2023". Given online retailers tend to get their stuff after brick and mortar, I expect toys on shelves in mid-late March, with some stuff leaking earlier.

    Now THAT makes the $200 well spent! As a kid, I was too old to get the "core" 84-85 characters, and was WAY into the Micro Machines/Micromaster play pattern, so the Rescue Squad was repurposed into Prowl, Ratchet, Inferno and Seaspray. I'm passed that, but having ONE of the Micromaster Squads...
  8. Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

    That seems like a possibility for the film, but the toy looks like goggles DO fold up. As Wheeljack, the figure doesn't do much for me. But I can't deny I love the idea of VW bus Transformer, and the actual DESIGN looks fine. I even dig the goggles as they sort of remind me of oversized...
  9. Transformers Legacy toyline

    New images show that Skyquake has pegs that connect to Needlenose. Makes me think some sort of G1 Skyquake and one of the mini jets as some sort of exclusive seems likely.

    Well...there went $200.

    That’s Space DEATH Chicken to you, Sir!
  12. New Authentics product -- Mini Bot Racers, masks, Cyber Battlers

    Compared to Primal, Cheetor seems to have a LOT more redesign going on, especially with the semi-mechanical beast mode. I can’t help but wonder if Primal and Cheetor aren’t based on some work done for Rise of the Beasts since neither features a robot mode character portrait, and Cheetor’s beast...
  13. The DC...Extended Universe or Films or Whatever

    Who knows. Hell, we still have, what, 4 or 5 films left in the pipeline? Whatever grand plan that Gunn is helping create, it is unlikely that anything is going to come of it until AT LEAST 2024. And THAT assumes that the management of Warner/DC remains stable and patient enough to allow a...

    I figure that if Hasbro really wanted to go that route, they‘ve had ample time since Power of the Primes to do so. Snarl even sported Gairyo’s blaster in a convention appearance, which says to me that Hasbro had some provisions for that avenue. Core Dinoking might be small, but I think he’s...
  15. Transformers Legacy toyline

    Actually, didn’t Dreadwing precede Skyquake in the Prime toy line? In both scales?
  16. Why do people only use the "Like" emoji but not the faces?

    Excuse me, sir, do you have an issue with those of us with beady-eyes?
  17. Transformers Legacy toyline

    Make Soundwave a repaint of Doubledealer and we’d even keep his minion compatibility!
  18. Transformers Legacy toyline

    Amazon exclusive for fall of 2023: Machine Wars Starscream vs Machine Wars Prowl (Earth Mode Mirage repaint) :p
  19. Transformers Legacy toyline

    Just from what I can discern…the shoulders are actually part of the front part of the jet’s contours. So if they had alternate tooling for the shoulders, you could shorten the pauldrons and give the jet mode that elongated “Blackbird” look. Depending on how froggy Hasbro was feeling when...
