    What would you want in a Transformers Playset?

    I saw it a few times at Tuesday Morning and passed each time.

    I was finally able to wrangle an Ultra Magnus that I can fully transform, and he's pretty darn fun.

    What would you want in a Transformers Playset?

    At the top of my list would be a G1 Ark playset. I do like the Kingdom Ark toy alright, but would welcome something slightly larger, that did not also need to have a robot mode. Along the lines of the original Millennium Falcon, it could have removeable (or opening) panels that would reveal...

    40th Anniversary Haslab: RID2001 Omega Prime

    My resolve is wearing down and I am thinking about backing this just for Fire Convoy. Only thinking about it, for now...

    Who should be Commander Class

    Yes! Although I would settle for a Leader Class version, if he was designed as G2 Megs first. This whole, "let's just paint regular, cannon-on-arm Megatron camo and call it a day" needs to stop! But yeah, I would love to see what the team could do with a true G2 Megatron at the Commander level.

    Sure you can! ;)

    40th Anniversary Haslab: RID2001 Omega Prime

    'Cause it's kinda lame, IMO. I mean, it's the nicest deco of those molds, but honestly, we can do better.

    40th Anniversary Haslab: RID2001 Omega Prime

    I wouldn't mind a new Ruination toy, so long as its planned repaint is Bruticus :)

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    I've already got a perfectly serviceable Chromia, but I would still buy that one. Looks really cool.

    Post Pictures of your Transformers, Let's see firetrucks fighting with sharks!

    I was trying to recall the other day which old 3p version had a leg transformation similar to the SS86 one (I want to say that it was maybe iGear, but I can't be bothered to check). But yeah, it's clever engineering, it just doesn't translate to a particularly pleasant-looking robot mode.

    I don't know that I would describe it as perfect. It looks good, but Earthrise Wheeljack is/was a good figure already. I feel like if the design team had created the rounded windshield from the beginning, there would still have been complaints (most likely that his upper body and chest look...

    Well sure, but that's not really a fair comparison, is it? ;)

    Who should be Commander Class

    Powermaster Prime would be a really good contender. I'd add: -JG1 Overlord. HasLab would also be a good fit, but there's a lot that they could do at the Commander pricepoint. -G1 Roadbuster. Make him big, chonky, armed to the teeth, fun to transform, and poseable as hell. -G1 Onslaught...

    40th Anniversary Haslab: RID2001 Omega Prime

    What I wish is that Fire Convoy could have been released as a standalone, Commander-Class figure. At $90, I would take the plunge. I just don't care enough about RID Ultra Magnus, Omega Prime, or Bluebolts to drop $250 on the one figure in the set that appeals to me.

    40th Anniversary Haslab: RID2001 Omega Prime

    Looks pretty darn cool. I don't think that I'm sold on the set yet, as I really only like Fire Convoy. I was always pretty "meh" on Ultra Magnus, and less enamored of the combined mode. Happy for those that want this though.

    Top 5 Micro Masters/Minicons/small bots (40th)

    Just wait until the upcoming Bacteriamasters are released! In all seriousness though, I think that those are some good choices. I came in here to sing my praises for Armada Ramjet, and I agree that the way he integrates with Tidal Wave was really cool, and probably should have been a...

    Post Pictures of your Transformers, Let's see firetrucks fighting with sharks!

    Yeah, that Brawn was disappointing to me. The top half of robot mode looks good, but the lower body needed to be left in the oven a while longer. I know that his legs look that way because of transformation. However, they're ugly and choppy, and those floaty little feet just look weird.

    Studio Series discussion

    That's cool, and I hope that the retailer doesn't need to step in. I've been in contact with consumer care, so I guess we'll see what comes of it. My desired outcome is to be recompensated for some of the $90 spent on my original Magnus. However, I am also excited to (hopefully) experience...

    Well, for what it's worth, SS86 Magnus is back in stock on Pulse: https://hasbropulse.com/collections/back-in-stock/products/transformers-studio-series-commander-the-transformers-the-movie-86-21-ultra-magnus I went ahead and ordered another one and am hoping that I can "return" the crappy...
