    Misassemblies aren't unheard of '86 prime had the feet thing, and Miner Megatron had his inner knees the wrong way around. https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Misassembly

    Studio Series discussion

    Studio Series Wave 3 is probably going live on the 24th. https://news.tfw2005.com/2025/06/20/hasbro-pulse-transformers-fanstream-announced-for-june-24th-540240 I think this was already confirmed, but I don't want to speak out of turn.

    Heads up, sound like Star Convoy has a misassembly issue, but looks like it's an easy fix. https://news.tfw2005.com/2025/06/20/transformers-age-of-the-primes-titan-class-star-optimus-prime-possible-missasembled-chest-windows-issue-540242

    It'd be weird if you WERE impressed.

    The other issue is that, well, they kind of nailed it in their first go. G1 was fractured from the start (four separate cotinuities by the end) so it never had a definitive version, really. Some people like the cartoon over the comic, or vice versa. Some people read the UK comic and not the...

    IDW at least seemed to have dropped the "It's prehistoric Earth" portion, but they just didn't have enough time to actually do anything with it before they lost the license.

    Beast Wars has also a lot less major entries, none of which were as big as the initial one(s). (BW, BW Japan, Uprising, the IDW minis and then the IDW ongoing) Oh and I guess War for Cybertron is in there as well, and Rise of the Beasts if you really want. G1 has Sunbow, Marvel, Marvel UK...

    Joe also has Vintage, right? (or whatever it is they call their 3.75 line.)

    I know what the kid stuff for Transformers looks like because I'm heavily in the fandom, but what does the kids stuff look like for Star Wars and Marvel? I'm assuming GI Joe is strictly collectors at this point). I only really see what goes up on Pulse, but I'm assuming it's not all Legend...

    The films technically did this; Prime was quite distraught at the state of cybertron in The Last Knight.

    Earthspark, while having the old standbys, gave us not only new characters, but an entirely new type of Transformer, and basically an entirely new status quo.... which they abandoned after the first season. Honestly, given what the Cyberworld show is shaping up to be, I'm not sure Hasbro is...

    Yeah, Ark would have had to crash 65+ million years ago to get living Dinosaurs, outside of the wacky comic book nature of the Savage Land. Actually longer because a lot of the species the Dinobots were based on lived in wildly different eras. (Based on some real quick and dirty googling...

    Transformers living for millions of years might be my favorite bit of "Some people making a kids cartoon pulled something out of their butts and now 40 years later we have to rationalize it" of Transformers. Some of that might have to do with my own mortality anxiety, as well as how I've...

    Be glad the have to plan out toylines two years in advance, so we're so getting One figured into 2026.

    The new Transformers Deal Thread

    The problem with Marvel Fort Max is that toy makes up for a lot of deficiencies by being a bigass city, so downscaling him really hurts it as a toy. As that "aircraft" mode that's just him splayed out with a big tower on his gut ain't great either. At least with Scorponok, a big scorpion is...

    I just headcanon him as "Tronus" since the suffix -tron is used a lot in transformers. Megatron, Cybertron, Fisitron, Banzi-Tron, Computron, Magmatron

    I like the thirteen as an aspect of cybertronian culture: I don't need them to be real; I don't need stories of the 13 returning and Optimus meeting Prima or Megatron battling the Fallen or whatever. They're better as mythological beings; stories and parables that cybertronians use to explain...
