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

    I'm not sure, but it was definitely reserved for Classics Kup.

    I had to look that up. Pretty cool concept and I agree that it would have been a neat inclusion to the overall set. However, I'm not sure quite how they would have executed it and still kept the costs close to what they intended. It wouldn't have been impossible, but I suspect that if they...

    Catch me up.

    I still can't believe that we live in a world where a gigantic, Hasbro-created Unicron exists (shipped in a box the size of a mini fridge), along with multiple versions of G1 Arcee. Those releases, coupled with the upcoming Devcon, still make me pinch myself. Welcome back!

    What about Crown Royal Prime? Would he come with the little bag? I bet he would go well with Pepsi Prime...

    I will admit that I've warmed up to the headsculpt a bit as the day has progressed, and I do like the alt mode. For me though, the leg issues all seem to be necessary-but-unfortunate decisions made for transformation purposes: the hinges on the outside of his knees, the split down the center of...

    I was excited - and immediately not excited - for Brawn. I want to like him, I really do. It sounds like Evan and Co. spent quite a bit of time toiling over him, but yeah, it's just not good. The head and face look really off, the proportions are weird-looking in both modes, and crucially, it...

    Both of those decos look really nice - especially Ratbat. However, I have no connection to these versions of either character, so it'll be a solid pass for me. Plus, I'm like good on the Megatron and Scourge molds.

    The Repaint Concept Thread

    I saw that huge Cybertron Starscream many times at retail and passed on it. Then I decided to grab the Galaxy Force Voyager version, and I'm still glad that I did. I like the toy a lot, I just didn't need it at triple (or whatever) the size.

    This is definitely cool because I hear that he was tough to get. If only they could tool a much better-looking car mode for Breakdown to go with it. The other bots' alt modes look incredible, IMO.

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    What drew me to Reprolabels initially was the quality of their G1 sticker sheet replicas. In the 90s, I ordered from them quite a bit as I completed more and more of my G1 collection. As time went on and the Transformers brand branched out and offered more, so did their company; it makes...

    Yeah, I like the fact that they are kind of nodding to some of the Transmetal aesthetics. I don't generally buy Movieverse figures (except on rare occasions), but so far, most of the animal designs have been pretty cool.

    IMO, The Ark isn't so much horrible as it is just underwhelming for what it is (and how much it initially cost!). It looks okayish in ship mode, which is the "underwhelming" part to me, because they really should have focused on that mode over everything else. But they clearly tightened things...

    Right. But I would be willing to suspend disbelief if the set would allow me to both: a). Have a nice-looking space ship mode. b). "Convert" into a fun, engaging little play scene inside.

    Perhaps it's a case of Titan-sized shrinkflation? I was a little puzzled with the decision not to include another transforming figure, but I fear that this might be the cost of doing business in 2023.

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Yeah, I am firmly in the "wish they had been playsets" camp re: both The Ark and this Nemesis release. Throwing the engineering and budget into something that splits open and becomes a command center, bridge, general hangout area, etc. would've been far more appealing to me than "by God, we've...

    Yes, and I'm also getting some TF Prime vibes as well. Specifically, a Vehicon influence with the thin proportions and high shoulder areas. Edit: super-specifically, Prime Soundwave, too.

    I got my preorder in at Pulse. Just like The Ark, I'm not buying it for the robot mode at all (doubt I'll even bother transforming it, unless I need to). It's expensive, but I went in on The Ark at full price and I haven't regretted it.

    How do you view the forums?

    Yes, very nice indeed. Easier to read, and I think that should be the priority.
