Not terrible but this has got to be one of the worst value for money toys in a long time.

Kingdom Slammer as the Autobot city missile launcher thing. Retool the turret into the launchpad. Think the colors would also look nice in robot mode.

Got Studio Series Springer in today. Here’s a comparison to my cleaned up Siege Springer. Legs are exactly the same as Siege but everything from the thighs up except the forearms is new, even the internal structural parts. The retooling also made him slightly taller. Got a bit of a lemon, with...

I’d argue cockpit sticking out of the tank is a demerit but that’s just me. I mean yeah, it’s supposed to be there but it sticks out way too much.

best part was the bald dude Chinese milk product placement. also, if being in AoE wasn’t enough of a turn off, never drink Chinese milk.

Counterpoint: Blitzwing is colored like a peanut butter and jelly sandwich

Mine had problems with the tabs for tank and jet modes. Robot articulation joints were good.

He has the type of shoulders I hate but he’s alright if a bit overpriced. It’s about all you’d expect of a slavish G1 Blitzwing. Tolerances aren’t the best though.

I'm sure most people lower down on the Hollywood totem pole are doing their best. Unfortunately, most problems with movies nowadays seem to come from up top, be it poor directing, scriptwork, time management or hell, sometimes the very premise of the movie.

I didn't know Hasbro hired tec

I think the new one could pass for a decently real lion with different eyes. It’s a bit pinheaded but the mane helps mitigate that.

Only accessory Tankor needs is detachable legs so we can stick him onto the included half-a-Rhinox

I bought their ninja Insecticons, Bruticus upgrade and their OC Steelcore. Ended up keeping only Steelcore. Got to handle a few other of their toys in one way or another. Everything they made until the bitter end had the same weird aesthetic that never sat well with even the blockiest of...

Tankor's not that complex. Maybe that'll let them divert some budget to mass.

Looking like he’s made of Lego is a big demerit. And outside of that he has breakage issues IIRC

I like how this discussion presupposes that there ‘s somehow a way that the toy could be made that would result in no dumb nitpick comments. This is the internet.

To prop up Takara’s margins for investors

It's a retool of the Legacy mold to give it the anime lion face.

I think Prime nailed it. The liquid metal look avoided the uncanny valley but isn't the movieverse's zillion tiny moving greebles. Sculpted lips would probably look like a ventriloquist dummy if not in 2D animation.

He could be there. Hard to tell with his stature really. You'd have to really zoom in to see him. Maybe get Perceptor to help out.
