This happened to a Brimstone I owned, and I half expect the same to happen to the Chopsaw I also sought out after. It's a great design, which makes this particular design/material issue more frustrating to likely encounter.

Eh, maybe with a new head...

Lovely, and finally a chance to use the headsculpt on a regular Mirage (the previous uses having been on Holo-Mirage and Crasher). And since they have the head tooling done already, they can spend some money tooling up a way for this mold to have a mount for the shoulder cannon.

Ah, I was just about to post this packaging pic I found indicating how the Cyberglow would look. (the shading in that picture makes me wish they'd gone ahead and used black plastic for this so we'd have a black and glow green Megs.)

Googling for a Brawn listing took me to a thread on TFW where apparently someone asked Evan about the Bumblebee head; Evan said the tooling for that head had been moved to a different factory after the last run of its use (Goldbug?). Called the mismatch an outcome of a "timing thing". I'd love...

And here's the inner tube I was reminded of, being a watercraft that also had "teeth" in the front.

I can't believe I never realized how much the early TMNT toyline's vehicles mostly just kept to the turtles' color scheme. The party wagon, the blimp, the cheapskates, the turtle cycle... All muted greens and yellows. This really does slot in perfectly (I'm reminded of the inner tubes), and the...

From the front page: Maybe TF Retro Brawn? Wish he had the big meaty claws, but I dig the green.

The runup to Walmart's upcoming Collector Con may be heating up, as right after the reveal of a Transformers Retro Seaspray listing, a possible first glimpse at a toy-based Brawn from the same exclusive line has surfaced. And that's definitely a toy-based head and cooler, forest-y green, all...

"Fire trucks? Sharks? Fools! Galvatron can post any pictures he pleases!" (Also I am very jealous about having neither the new shark nor the new fire truck) (Achai upgrade head. I'm not able to go after this sort of thing a lot, but this excellent design not being 3d printed -- and showing up...

These are, but much more directly evocative of Sonic and Tails than, say, Party Wallop was of a specific Ninja Turtle (or Metalhead) or Ectotron was of any of the Ghostbusters. Also, iirc Ultimate X-Spanse (who had gear that evoked specific X-Men, but wasn't directly, say, robo-Cyclops beyond...

I just hope these two were far enough along that they wouldn't be affected by that cancellation. Shame about future items though, hope they can find a home for them elsewhere. Really more mid2000s stuff would be a joy to get. Universe 1.0, Battle in a Box, Robotmasters, Unicron Trilogy... But...

These are pretty neat. I've idly thought about getting this to rechristen the drone "Blockrock", but I may just repurpose SG Laserbeak as that. Has any 3P (like Dr Wu, who makes these) ever made an Autoscout at WFC scale? All I've seen so far is that one Funbie Studios 3d printed one. And the...

From the front page - first pics of Retro Seaspray are up via Walmart, and he's looking good.

YVAN EHT NIOJ We now know what the long-listed Transformers Retro version of Seaspray will look like. As Walmart continues its exclusive line of G1 homages, it's joined by one more upsized Minibot, as listed on their website. An all-new mold unlike the Minibot retools/redecos that have preceded...

I can see what they were going for, and why they'd make these so evocative of the characters. Some of the execution is actually kinda clever, and the altmodes are great-looking. But the compromises and uneven outcomes make me wish they'd just made new characters with their own designs (and...

His figure is out of this world.

I mean yeah. I was doing swimmingly just ignoring most of this and thinking it looked nifty and being content to keep thinking that from a distance. Even now I'm still just haggling and trying to keep it to a select few. But oh I could list the lines I thought THAT about at first...
