This breakdown of the series premise seems to indicate that the five "energy" source elements don't include wind: "Flame Energy (fire), Glass [grass?] Energy (nature), Grand [ground] Energy (earth), Lightning Energy (thunder), or Aqua Energy (water)" I'm only going off of Google Translate, so...

Allsparker Donocropolis directs our attention to TV Magazine, who share a great breakdown of Transformers: Wild King figures. Their twin posts show off Energy Master Optimus Prime, ENergy Master Megatron, and the line's Energy Beasts: Lightlong, Hydrophant, Captain Volca, and Leafback! The...

I'd absolutely love to read that!

Shame it all seems so partformery. But...new designs and characters!!!

I gotta say, I don't miss the lights and sounds at all and was glad to see them eventually get priced out of the toys. Hasbro has shown proficiency at tapping into lots of other play patterns and catchy elements that wouldn't hobble an individual toy as much (or necessitate unwieldy...

Seek ye the Personal Canon Thread!

Damn, I should've put this on the list. This is exactly what I've wanted for some time. Just one all-new mold that has at least three redecos/retools waiting in line for it (green or purple to start, the other to follow, Destruction Bludgeon, canceled Combat Hero, Reverse Convoy, Megastorm).

I immediately tried to populate this with Hot Rods and Rodimuses, but let's pare those down to these. Pick one, I guess? 1. Energon Rodimus - maybe a tall Deluxe or sure, let's go Voyager. I'm either/or on the Powerlinx gimmick, but it'd be nice to see the design unencumbered by it. 1. New...

Gee, thanks. Of course I'd vastly prefer if some got the Sideways, Starscream, Hot Shot treatment. Just trying to manage my own expectations given what capsules have tended to be composed of (even Override was a surprise replacing a half-assed retool plan, iirc).

"Turn into EARTH cars? Eh, it'll never catch on."

Finally, Hasbro venturing outside predictable redeco ideas. But I stand by hoping for some Energon attention, maybe a capsule. * Energon Prowl vs Starscream (AOTP RA/Legacy Armada Starscream) * Rodimus (Scraphook retool) vs Divebomb (Filch retool) * Strongarm (Legacy Beachcomber retool) vs...

I really like how Red Alert Captures the lankier vibe of the animation model, chonky thighs and all. Just wish the chest panels could at least open (can they?). Hoping he gets an Energon (Prowl) redeco. Hell, give me the Armada Starscream too.

Insisting on it, in fact, will in many cases just lead to things not being made. Because even if year by year Hasbro chips away at the list of things that "MUST be" Commander or Titan class for scal3 and whatnot, before long it'll be time to redo some of the ones they'd previously crossed off...

SHEAAAGHHH

Tbh that sounds like a good argument for skipping a Titan for a year or two and producing two Commanders or something instead.

YES.

I can make fun of more than one thing at a time.

I'd welcome a Commander class PMOP. Motormaster/Armada OP are two takes on a cab that combines with the trailer for a super robot mode, and this can be a third. Nucleon Quest Super Ginrai for Selects or something? Then do a standalone Leader class Godbomber, just a straight up Big Weaponizer...

Whatever Hasbro makes of it, I hope it's more G1 box art super chonk proportions rather than the lanky anime model.

My fear is it'll leapfrog Commander class and be a Titan.
