The Fantastic Four are a big one. I don't follow modern comics, really, but from memory of the old ones I used to read, none of the FF really kept a "secret identity." They still answered to their civilian names and wore civilian clothes at times, but there was no separation of those from...
I never did pick up jet Elita. I do like how she's more similar in size to your average Optimus, but I was a strict Trukk-not-playne G1'er. I love Earthspark's take on her earth mode being a big offroad truck to give her some mass to work with.
I really do like this, but that price is a bit higher than what I had hoped. I was figuring on roughly $50ish modern Leader price. $75 for just the cab is a bit too much, I think. I think I'll wait and see if there is a more reasonably priced domestic release.
Christmas 1985. Not 100% sure if this is Sludge or Snarl (leaning towards Sludge). They were the only two Dinobots I had as a kid but I'm not sure who came first.
I did the exact same thing. I initially avoided the Siege Seeker mold completely, waiting for the eventual Earth jet version. But once I bought Hotlink on sale and realized how nice that mold was, I caved and bought a few more.
Yeah, probably would have preferred the Mercenary symbol, but I've been jonesing for a Detritus repaint of a Hound mold forever, so I still happily preordered.
I'm torn, because I was figuring on buying the no-trailer version just to save money not rebuying a trailer, but the toy-accurate deco/head would also be my preference (if it's an articulated version of the G1 toy, then I want to go all-in on toy accuracy.)
I still haven't seen the newest one. I thought the first film was great, as was The Animatrix. The original two live action sequels were ok. Worth seeing, but no where near as good as the first.
I could see myself biting on the trailer-less version (already have a decent G1 trailer, so if there are no radical improvements, I don't really need another). I don't know that I'd be all-in for a whole line of these, though.
Oooh, you know what would be really cool? If we got articulated...
