    Transformers Legacy toyline

    There's also been some speculation the IDW comic Strika is a retool of this Bulkhead, but I don't see it at all personally.

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    https://www.allspark.com/forums/threads/personal-canon-thread.278/page-2#post-24174 i had a stab at it. I think the "drone comes to life bit" has been a bit overdone recently, but I did like the weakness I came up with.

    Hmm, kinda not great that there's not even an attempt at a bio.

    Hasbro not attending toy fair this year

    TBF Hasbro not attending London Toy Fair will almost not be noticed. They barely turned up regardless.

    IDW to Lose the Transformers License?

    I do hope this is at least handled more sensibly than the recent Buffy move. It would be a shame to see all of IDW's books go out of print at the end of the year, and from Hasbro's point of view having critically acclaimed books like MTMTE disappear to new readers would seem crazy.

    IDW to Lose the Transformers License?

    I wouldn't agree with the proposition that Hasbro have done nothing but nostalgia for the last few years, and I definitely wouldn't agree that a "fresh take" (which presumably means an Armada esque interpretation with only lose similarities for some characters) would be very successful for a...

    IDW to Lose the Transformers License?

    I would say exactly the opposite tbh.

    WFC Kingdom Appreciation Thread

    Just had Terrorsaur arrive. The box image has the wings held together by nice rivets, but the toy was downgraded to just a mushroom peg, and not a good one - it is basically impossible to transform him without both wings falling off. The sculpt looks pretty sharp, but yeah, another basic factory...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    I feel like Iguanus would fit in nicely with the Speedia toys, more than it feels like a representation of the G1 character. But is a little cheap core class so that's cool. Skywarp's tuning fork/slingshot looks hilarious.

    More retooling than expected. That looks really good.

    I wonder if they'll do another of those Pulse live keynotes then.

    Masterpiece Theater: the MP thread

    Skywarp arrived this morning. It's nice to have them all in hand, but man, that's an expensive shelf now. The purple is definitely more indigo than the solicitations though. But the black is more charcoal as it should be in hand.

    IDW to Lose the Transformers License?

    Skybound are an imprint of Image Comics founded by Robert Kirkman, and they are notably responsible for The Walking Dead and Invincible. They're still Image as far as the customer is concerned. Skybound are probably a good fit for getting high profile talent onboard, but ultimately there's...

    IDW to Lose the Transformers License?

    Realistically, if you're pitching for the license now then you've got two plausible routes to get the license. 1) That you can toys better by reflecting the toy line better than IDW did. Not sure I see this as being likely, IDW already leant into this as much as I think it's reasonably possible...

    IDW to Lose the Transformers License?

    It's perfectly possible to build up many different advancing stories while still having each issue have an ending and telling smaller stories - MTMTE did this very successfully, especially at the start. Sometimes Ruckley's issues genuinely feel like the last page has been cut off and they end...

    Yeah, that exo-suit looks like a good effort (though very cheeky that the head on the box has considerably more paint and care than the head on the toy).

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Given the same promo pics show Buzzworthy Cliffjumper as having clear windows I wouldn't assume the Galvatron pictures are accurate.
