    Same here. I was hesitant on Galvatron, but I think they hit a really fair price and I have ample time to change my mind on him.
  2. Transformers Legacy toyline

    It's the revenge of the mid-2000s! The story of Universe combined with a major gimmick from Energon! We've already seen SS Starscream and Perceptor. That may well all be it until they start the hype machine for the next film (which will likely dominate the line next year) I'm terribly...
  3. Hasbro PulseCon 2021 October 22nd & October 23rd

    I KNOW! It's not like they said it a dozen times in the movie they keep referencing, or dozens more in the 30 some episodes of the third season the cartoon they keep referencing.
  4. Hasbro PulseCon 2021 October 22nd & October 23rd

    The ZORD accession project looks amazing. I'm hoping that moves forward, it probably will, but I can REALLY see that Transformers DNA in that model. Maybe that's going to be Power Rangers "Commander" price point offering?
  5. Transformers Legacy toyline

    Well, at least I feel safe in saying that after seeing Skids and Bulkhead’s Energon weapons, we SHOULD be getting a dang cool accessory pack this time around.
  6. Transformers Legacy toyline

    I mean, ultimately, "G1-ification" of most Animated designs leaves you stuff not terribly far removed from the typical looks for most characters. I think the issue is more like, Hasbro made a Bulkhead with a LOT more in common to his Animated iteration than Prime, but opted to namecheck Prime...
  7. Transformers Legacy toyline

    To me, he looks like a more "militarized" permutation of the "civic utility vehicles" exemplified by Grapple and Inferno. Kind of like how Prowl, Smokescreen, Jazz and Skids all share broad body structures, but are clearly more "specialized" in their uses. Heck, all things considered, I think...
  8. The COVID Vaccination Thread

    That’s IF they can get a lung transplant. Extra organs aren’t exactly a dime a dozen even BEFORE recent events. There will be millions who will have damaged lungs for the rest of their lives simply because they aren’t “bad enough” to justify a transplant. Though, given my own transplant...
  9. Transformers Legacy toyline

    I also feel, like the Beast Wars updates last year....a LOT of the toys of the last 30 years are damn hard to "do better" or improve upon. For most of the Prime cast...they have serviceable to fantastic toy representations. I remember a lot of dissatisfaction with 25th Hot Shot because, to...
  10. Transformers Legacy toyline

    I'm not sure if it's cost cutting or a change in design team...but I do think both look a bit "rough around the edges" in ways the last few years haven't. Then again, the last few years have been pretty heavy on characters done and redone to death so maybe this is a result of some "leg...
  11. The COVID Vaccination Thread

    Heard a sobering fact at meeting today at work (I work at a hospital). For the year, our institution is over a million dollars in the red. So, anyone saying how this is a ploy to make hospitals rich...are full of jive. The big reason for the deficits are because of the extreme bills being...
  12. Ghostbusters General

    I see Afterlife doing the same thing Force Awakens did: There is going to be a hard divide between people enjoying the callbacks and character returns with a new story. And then there are going to be people ripping it apart for not being "new enough" or simply playing to nostalgia. Most of the...
  13. Hasbro PulseCon 2021 October 22nd & October 23rd

    Heck, with Micromasters "done" at retail for the foreseeable future, Hasbro's got a good number of tools that could be used for some of the assorted Japanese Micromasters characters (like Clipper) featured in the show.
  14. The Batman Will Rise in March 2022!

    So, Film Theory did a big analysis for The Batman last year. Given what we've seen from the film...they might not be too far off...
  15. Hasbro PulseCon 2021 October 22nd & October 23rd

    I'd probably be in the same boat. I don't have the Unicron, don't have desire for it and all those accessories don't do anything for me. Except amuse me IMMENSELY that they did a mini figure for Snarl (who hardly appears in the film) but not Sludge (who is very prominent).
  16. Hasbro PulseCon 2021 October 22nd & October 23rd

    Maybe that’s Hasbro’s move into the adult/nerdy board game demographics. Something separate from the typical, all ages, Hasbro Gaming segment and the card/RPG centric Wizards of the Coast. Also, PrimevsPrime on YouTube posted a review of the Unicron accessory pack, which comes with a nifty...
  17. The Repaint Concept Thread

    I still maintain a weird fascination with getting the Fox Kids redecos done on the new molds. Market them as “Maximal Strike Force” and lob in a Cybertron/Universe 1.0 fusion Optimus repaint and a repaint for Blackarachnia and it’d make a nice little theme. Something like Primal leading his...
  18. The Nintendo Thread of Jumping, Slashing, and Home Decorating

    Nintendo has revealed the cost of the Online expansion pack. In addition to a DLC for Animal Crossing, you also get access to the (relatively) paltry selection of N64 and Sega Genesis titles (More to Come Later!...supposedly). The cost for this "expansion"? $50 for one year. The base online...
  19. The Batman Will Rise in March 2022!

    Starting up a new thread as recent developments these past few weeks have started to reignite the hype machine for the new film from director Michael Reeves. This weekend will see the premiere of a new trailer during DC Fandome. Our first new look at the film in nearly two years. There were...
  20. Marvel Toy Thread

    Yeah, next year is supposed to have a celebration year for the 20th Anniversary of Marvel Legends. Captain America was shown, and typically Iron Man and Thor aren't far behind (especially with Thor: Love and Thunder due out next year as well)
