    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Agreed, I'd probably pass on a Big Convoy but would definitely be interested in Ultra Mammoth colors. Or 2004 Universe Nemesis Prime, one of the few toys I kick myself for not picking up back in the day when I had the chance.

    Why is Snarl already sold out 😭 Only $2 more on BBTS, guess I'll order it there, they've never steered me wrong...

    The Repaint Concept Thread

    Yeah it seems really familiar but after looking up a bunch of yellow/orange jets I wasn't sure either. Gunrunner is also probably my best guess but the color layout is pretty different though that may be for gangmolding reasons? I've long wished that all the concepts posted be identified, I...

    Supremely cartoon-accurate robot mode, alt-mode on the level of Siege Soundwave or Legacy Skullgrin.

    Studio Series 86 Appreciation Thread

    Snarl looks mostly great, very happy since he was always my favorite Dinobot growing up. But yeah, that yellow plastic looks really off next to all the gold. I wonder why - budget reasons, or those pieces are too complex to be gold, or just unfinished? Hoping for the latter... Also kinda wish...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    I feel kinda dumb for not realizing there were elements of Predator Skyquake in the design, even though it's overall definitely Prime Skyquake. I'd definitely be tempted by a repaint of Predator colors, especially if Needlenose gets a Predator remold too. Otherwise I'll probably just be waiting...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Thanks for the heads up... I had just been in a Walgreens this evening thinking "are they ever going to get Minerva in stock??" Same here... Shrapnel's my favorite of the three 'regular' ones, and this one objectively looks pretty good, but I'm not moved to buy it. I think the price is finally...

    Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

    Yeah it feels like BM Cheetor with all the cool aspects taken away (nice bold color scheme, stylish curves, awesome swords).

    Does anyone have any idea of when it is most likely we will find out who the new Transformers comic publisher and why it has not happened yet?

    It got announced in May 2022 that Marvel was losing the rights to Conan the Barbarian at the end of the year, and a month later in June 2022 it was announced Titan Comics had picked up the license and would be publishing new Conan stuff in May 2023. I know that's just one data point but I think...

    Your Top figures for 2022?

    Kinda funny, even being a huge G2 fan and wanting an OG Jhiaxus for a long time, I was a little unsure at first because my mental image of him from the comics was a bit wider/squatter than the toy ended up, which is rather athletic. But having the toy in hand, I think it nailed it, and actually...

    Transformers: Reactivate (console MMO)

    Trailer certainly doesn't make it look an MMO, though honestly the trailer had so little it could almost be anything.

    Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

    I agree the vibe I get from the trailer is much more Bay than Bumblebee, even though it's in-continuity with the latter and not the former. Trailers can lie, of course... I think my main worry is the amount of characters. BB basically had Bee, Charlie, Memo, John Cena, Shatter and Dropkick. 6...

    HasLab Deathsaurus

    Zac's suggestion of the Nemesis makes sense to me - it's got a pretty striking design I think. We're at 3/5 of the Dinobots... maybe a two-pack of Snarl and Swoop, to do them right? I'm worried if there's a bit of a drop-off between Snarl and the others due to cost inflation, and Swoop may be a...

    HasLab Deathsaurus

    Yeah, I kinda wonder how much to read into that. On one hand "something that celebrates the 40th anniversary" would seem to mean it has to be something from 1984, which is pretty limiting, especially if it's not Optimus or a gun Megatron. (Ark? Seems unlikely after just doing the Titan, unless...

    Countdown to Extinction: List of Buying IDW 2.0 in the Fewest Purchases Possible

    It looks like the side series (Galaxies, Wreckers: Tread and Circuits, and Escape) are included in the 6 volumes you linked: Vol 1: Transformers #1-12 Vol 2: Transformers #13-18, Galaxies #1-6 Vol 3: Transformers #19-24, Galaxies #7-12 Vol 4: Transformers #25-30, Escape #1-5, the Valentine...

    HasLab Deathsaurus

    On the fence about this one... didn't go in on Star Saber because I've got no real attachment to the character, but Deathsaurus has shown up a lot elsewhere outside of Victory, and bad guys are cooler anyways. Is there a chance we see a picture of the painted version before the backing phase...

    The Repaint Concept Thread

    Yeah, after a really close look, I see it. The top half, at least - I agree that the visor kinda throws off the eyes and everything under it. But everything above the visor line is definitely Autobot symbol.

    PulseCon 2022

    Scraphook looks surprisingly cool. I'm just not wild about the color scheme... obviously it's very Junkion-esque, no complaints there, just kinda drab with all the tan. Wonder if it'll get redecoed as something more bold and fun. As for the rest, I think I'll get Breakdown to complete the set...
