The turret ALMOST works, if it wasn't for the fusion canon being very obviously a separate piece. Tank mode is definitely not the best, though given what it turns into, it's pretty impressive. Bot mode looks pretty good, he cleans up very well on the back, headsculpt is a little off but...

Skywarp, Ironhide and Bluestreak, based on that scene from MtMtE pt 3 where the two autobots can fly and Skywarp teleports behind them.

Toy deco is still in stock at BBTS. https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/97646?o=4

Listings for Studio Series Skywarp and Thundercracker have been found for 2026 IIRC.

Who's got 2 thumbs and just paid a 50% markup to get ahold of 3 used Refraktors off of ebay this Monday? 👍 THIS GUY 👍 *sobs* They haven't even arrived in the mail yet.

So, uh, if I wanted ot buy somehting off of ebay that's from a seller in autrailia, would I still be hit with a tariff?

Only mentioning this as it relates to the tariffs, but apparently a Federal appeals court struck down the tariffs for now. https://apnews.com/article/trump-tariffs-trade-court-0392dbd59f548e49ad4f64254ae3f94a

Oh hey, mine shipped. Finally. Hopefully it's not cracked.

Mine still hasnt' shipped.

I made a bunch of preorders before they were shut down, but nothing's been canceled so far.

*shrug* Nothing lasts forever, unfortunately I think the challenges facing the franchise, the toy industry at large and even the world in which we live don't exactly fill me with long-term optimism.

Like, I could see them getting a cameo in a TF One sequel, but that doesn't seem like it's happening. It's unlikely they'd show in a live action film, which would probably go with more bankable names an a smaller cast. Maybe Cyberverse's 5 minute episodes will be a fluke, but I can't see that...

Is Roche still working on Transformers?

Maybe in the comics, if someone with a vision beyond G1 gets writing duties, but other than that, probably not. Well, maybe in 10-20 years, but I think assuming Transformers will even be still around at that point is pushing it, IMO.

Yup, I was going to mention that, alongside the whole deal with Megatron's gun mode, but I didn't want to get too in the weeds with that post.

The thing is, that's not really true and never has been; it's just been easier to obsfucate the connections in the past, especially decades removed from them in some cases. Like, it's not a coinidence that so much manufacturing got moved to China, and then so much started getting moved out of...

If I had a nickel every time I heard that, I could probably afford to cover the tariff costs.

Apropo of nothing related to Transformers, I just want to say thanks to the people who decided to get the hell off of Wikia back in the day and make the TFwiki independant. A move that proves more and more prescient every day.

I backed early on and still nothing for me, but that's pretty par for the course for Haslabs. If they haven't shipped it by Friday then I'll worry.

You don't copyright names, you trademark them, and I don't see any trademarks for any of these bots in the USPTO.
