    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Pulling up the live stream, a lot of the toys do look a lot better on video than they do in the official shots. BLC looks much more black, Axel Grease looks way cooler, etc. And Armada Megs does have the waist cannon.

    Black Lio Convoy doesn't look very black, instead it's burnished steel... which is fine, I guess, but I doubt it's what most people are looking for. Dirge's tan seems a bit too bright, but could just be the lighting. Armada Megs looks great but looks to really miss his accessories and needs...

    At first I was mildly amused that both Orion and Dion are now Kup remolds, but that actually makes a lot of sense as all three could be roughly from the same time period and thus have similar designs.

    If Francis is Frankenstein, I could see Waffles being Wolfman, though no idea what that would leave JoJo to be though.

    Went ahead and pre-ordered Cloudcover on Walmart. The comments here about their pre-order history has me leery, but they give me free shipping and didn't feel like paying $7 shipping on a $35 on Pulse. So, will take my chances. It'd be cool to know what some of the thinking/discussions were...

    Cloudcover looks great and I'm tempted, especially to pair with G2 Sandstorm. Toxitron and Grimlock also look great, but since I already have those molds I'm not sure I'll take the plunge. Be interested to see the G2 Grimlock for real, though. That Jazz though... why? I've never figured that...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Yeah, I had 'Bendy' Prime but not the Super version, so no real nostalgia for me, but damn if that toy isn't looking too good to pass on.

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Agreed, I'd probably pass on a Big Convoy but would definitely be interested in Ultra Mammoth colors. Or 2004 Universe Nemesis Prime, one of the few toys I kick myself for not picking up back in the day when I had the chance.

    Why is Snarl already sold out 😭 Only $2 more on BBTS, guess I'll order it there, they've never steered me wrong...

    The Repaint Concept Thread

    Yeah it seems really familiar but after looking up a bunch of yellow/orange jets I wasn't sure either. Gunrunner is also probably my best guess but the color layout is pretty different though that may be for gangmolding reasons? I've long wished that all the concepts posted be identified, I...

    Supremely cartoon-accurate robot mode, alt-mode on the level of Siege Soundwave or Legacy Skullgrin.

    Snarl looks mostly great, very happy since he was always my favorite Dinobot growing up. But yeah, that yellow plastic looks really off next to all the gold. I wonder why - budget reasons, or those pieces are too complex to be gold, or just unfinished? Hoping for the latter... Also kinda wish...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    I feel kinda dumb for not realizing there were elements of Predator Skyquake in the design, even though it's overall definitely Prime Skyquake. I'd definitely be tempted by a repaint of Predator colors, especially if Needlenose gets a Predator remold too. Otherwise I'll probably just be waiting...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Thanks for the heads up... I had just been in a Walgreens this evening thinking "are they ever going to get Minerva in stock??" Same here... Shrapnel's my favorite of the three 'regular' ones, and this one objectively looks pretty good, but I'm not moved to buy it. I think the price is finally...

    Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

    Yeah it feels like BM Cheetor with all the cool aspects taken away (nice bold color scheme, stylish curves, awesome swords).

    Does anyone have any idea of when it is most likely we will find out who the new Transformers comic publisher and why it has not happened yet?

    It got announced in May 2022 that Marvel was losing the rights to Conan the Barbarian at the end of the year, and a month later in June 2022 it was announced Titan Comics had picked up the license and would be publishing new Conan stuff in May 2023. I know that's just one data point but I think...

    Your Top figures for 2022?

    Kinda funny, even being a huge G2 fan and wanting an OG Jhiaxus for a long time, I was a little unsure at first because my mental image of him from the comics was a bit wider/squatter than the toy ended up, which is rather athletic. But having the toy in hand, I think it nailed it, and actually...

    Transformers: Reactivate (console MMO)

    Trailer certainly doesn't make it look an MMO, though honestly the trailer had so little it could almost be anything.

    Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

    I agree the vibe I get from the trailer is much more Bay than Bumblebee, even though it's in-continuity with the latter and not the former. Trailers can lie, of course... I think my main worry is the amount of characters. BB basically had Bee, Charlie, Memo, John Cena, Shatter and Dropkick. 6...
