Y'all act like this isn't a franchise built on 40 years of questionable continuity decisions. For this toyline Star Optimus Prime is one of the original 13, oh well? People acting like it's a slap in the face or something.

Is he a big deal, though? Until the 13, his biggest claim to fame was a one page spread with no set-up at the end of a comic series that sold so badly it got canceled after 12 issues. Even then, he no longer even has his biggest hook (being the progenitor of the Decepticons) because they gave...

I just realized the reason they used the G1 head for Prima might be because they used the Dreamwave head for the Fallen. Also, Prima gives me G1 Megatron color scheme vibes now.

Disappointed that Onyx doesn't appear to be a centaur and that Amalgamous does really have anything that suggests "lots of alt-modes" Really curious what they're going to have some of these guys turn into.

They already did that with combiner wars. These are going to something different.

Gonna need to see if Silverbolt has a vehicle mode without his "trailer" because holy god is that thing a brick. :D

Maybe Silverbolt fits into a larger shell that makes him a properly scaled Concord jet compared to the other arielbots and that shell is what becomes the frame.

Those bigass calves/feet and skinny arms.

It seems to me if you want the scramble city gimmick, and don't care about show accuracy or size, you go with Combiner Wars. If you want bigger, more show accurate combiners (even Superion's legs were a lot more square than teh toys allowed, what with them also having to be jets) then go with...

I will say this: Hasbro has had a rough couple of years:they massively expanded during COVID and made a lot of bets that didn't pay off and their media attempts fully collapsed. I wouldn't be surprised if a sizable number of investors would just like to get a big payout and move on. Not...

EDIT: Eh, this is off topic.

Called it. I don't know why everyone assumed the Titan class would have to be $200 or more. It's literally a single-item class! They can make it whatever price/size they want!

No, it's own line of 6" figures. Maybe the TF branding will be enough to carry them, but I get the sense that sports fans aren't looking for toys.

A line of NFL figures seems.. dubious to me. Like, didn't they have an entire line of NBA action figures that tanked hard?

"Estimated Shipping Fall 2025" is what my order still says.

TFA was pretty safe, but as a foundation for building a trilogy it wasn't awful, though I would have liked more explanation of how we went from 'Yub Yub" to the First Order poised to take over the galaxy, but whatever. TLJ had a lot of great ideas of where to take the franchise, wrapped in kind...

AoE has a the Romeo and Juliet Law scene. That immediately invalidates any attempt to justify that movies existence.

I liked them more at the time than I do now, so no they're not. I was much worse at noticing bad acting and digital effects back then.

That was one of the titans from Cyberverse. Very weird choice for a normal sized figure.

Honestly, the big reason I stopped is I had just watched a 5 episode miniseries that culiminated in Cobra Commander being captured and I wanted to see how he escaped, only for the next miniseries to immediately start with him free.
