I appreciate how thorough this breakdown is, not just regarding BBTS' response but the very concept motivating it. It helps protect them from people thinking they're just greedily taking this excuse to jack up prices (although, being morons, some will think that anyway), because you know...

I'm tired, boss.

But YOU CAN have nothing, i.e. none of that. Reference: I have none of that

At this point, between many of the designs being done better in the mainline and Blokees/Yolopark/etc taking up the non-transforming figure niche, looks like R.E.D is dead, no redemption.

Kind of want an upgrade kit that's just More More More Flames.

I've got more non-G1-but-G1-looking Soundwaves than I really thought I'd accumulate. This mold looks like it'd pair well with the RID2015 one.

I'm an easy mark for "this is based on this unreleased concept or deco", and would love to see this on a mainline sized Megatron. But they already got me to buy the Siege mold with the winter colors Combat Hero, so... Maybe on whatever the SS86 Megs ends up being. But I probably would get this...

A complete story.

I mean, don't get me wrong. I'd love for a reasonable resolution to this to be possible or likely or imminent. I'm not rooting for the worst, I'm dreading it. It's just the universe has been pretty clear lately about where it wants to go.

BOCK BOCK B-GBWAAAAAAA

The thing is "appealing" is entirely subjective. The same problem exists with calling them "add-on" kits, as some won't see anything of value being added. And still others will, for either term, not see the upgrading or adding as significant enough vis-a-vis the price to warrant it being called...

This is one theory I've encountered about this. Create big sweeping problem, see who (governments/companies) pays to become exempt from it. But then not everyone's going to go that route; China hit right back with tariffs of their own, adding an earth metals ban that will have its own price...

I remember being resistant to how Armada did it because I just wanted a Scourge nod played straight (and was frustrated that Takara did it as an exclusive, as was the style at the time). But now I've been trying to backtrack and get the Hasbro one as well. Universe Blood Mammoth was awesome.

Swap red windows with yellow windows (I'm not bothering with the nonsense of calling them "urine-colored" or pitting that against super kewl bLoOd rEd) and teal with gunmetal and/or lime green. None of that is any less "strategic". There's about the same amount of creativity involved in these...

I think whether it's that or "paint it black", it matches the creativity involved in "what if good guy not good? Dun dun dunnnn".

Yeah, I mean, at least have the decency to publish a manga that depicts that or make a book and put this in the margins in some unusual font that says it's canon.

A Lego Megatron should be fine. They've made submarines before, right?

Just make sure he's still voiced by Brad Garrett.

Maybe if the backpedaling involves backpedaling right off a cliff. The schadenfreude is just not enough anymore and I can't afford popcorn. Yeah, one of my favorite interactions back when this was just Canada and Mexico being threatened was "this has long been needed, CHIPS was a bunch of...

I haven't been familiar with the comparisons of late, and I'm sure that IN Japan the US stuff is pricey for the same reason the inverse is typically the case, but wow, are we going to see Japanese mainline releases end up cheaper than US mainline releases Or maybe the stock market as a whole...
