I'm not quite sure I understand your post. No, I'm not suggesting that they never, ever, ever release another Core Class Prime in the history of ever that has a trailer. And sure, if they had done this from the beginning, it probably would have been more like 20-or-so bucks, as opposed to $12.

Okay, thanks. I've already got one Core Class Optimus. If they wanted for him to come with a trailer, they could have / should have done it from the get-go. I'm not buying another one plus a crappy Bumblebee just to get a trailer.

Didn't get a chance to watch all of the stream. I did see Bludgeon and Optimus though. Bludgeon looks pretty good to me and I don't have have any modern representations of him, so will probably pick that up. Is the Bumblebee that comes with that little Optimus w/trailer set the one that was...

I would love to see BM Megs get the modern treatment. I'd really like to see an updated version of his cloaked form, with wiring harness!

I've decided to just keep on truckin' with my LG version, which I have loved for a long time now. He's tiny and simple, but he just works for me. The mold references his G1 model close enough for him to stand among my modern '84 bots, but he's ever so slightly updated, which is nice. There...

-G1 Roadbuster. I'd prefer at least Voyager Class, but Leader might allow for him to really shine. -BW Tigerhawk. Definitely Leader Class. -BW Quickstrike. Deluxe. He's probably small enough for Core Class, but a Deluxe would allow it to be cooler. -BM Tankor. Leader Class for sure, to...

Raiden has always been a curiosity to me. He has long held a spot in my mind, right next to Overlord, for toys that I really wish that we could have gotten stateside in the original G1 run. I can't speak for every western kid, but I know that when I was an impressionable age, I liked trains a...

That's it, you did it, Agent X; picture thread over! Seriously though, great pics.

Hey, whatever they think will get him to the Leader price. It's basically just a slab with some treads on it; not too complex. They gave Starscream a big, plastic throne. Surely they can give Springer a big, plastic slab. Plus, you know, scale has never really been too big of a sticking point.

"Hello." I'm well aware of this version, too. But like I said in my original post, if they want to do this and shove it into an SS86 box, fine; there's no need for a brand-new mold Springer, IMO. Change the Autobot symbol and give him the mobile rocket launcher thing from the movie that he...

Exactly. See, this is the kind of stuff that pisses me off. You wanna re-do Springer for SS86? Fine, wipe all of the crap off of the Siege mold and call it good. But don't turn around a few years after you've already made a perfectly decent representation and go, "oh wait, we need to redo...

Some of us have already shriveled and died several times over, lol. Welcome to the club :LOL: !

Yeah, I just couldn't bring myself to take that kind of a financial plunge. In my head, I round a mental corner after about $2 - 300, where something ceases to be fun and it starts getting into "I don't ever want to handle or look at this thing, for fear of breaking it." The stakes are just...

I didn't know that Target did that! I'm familiar with companies "pinging" credit cards for like a one-cent preauth, but the full amount seems excessive and unnecessary. I'm pretty sure that I've preordered from them in the past though, but I don't remember them doing that.

I guess that "Saturday morning cartoon" is a good descriptor of the movie, but yeah, I don't quite get the spoiler reference. In thinking a little more about the movie (which is probably not something that is encouraged!), a few things that stick out to me are:

Man, that sucks, Tec; sorry to hear it! Years ago, I got myself into the habit of removing (or just not installing) the batteries upon opening my figures. I think that electronics are cool and all, but to me, they aren't a selling point, or a necessary part of enjoying what I've purchased...

I saw RotB yesterday and enjoyed it quite a bit. Of course, I was going into it not expecting too much, and I had a good time. There are a few things that I would like to have seen done / handled better, but for the most part, it did not disappoint. Crucially, too, it featured a lot of screen...

I put in a preorder for Prowl / Ironhide at Pulse. I've got zero interest in the troop builder pack though, which is great, because there'll be at least one more set going into the hands of someone who really wants it :).

I don't have any version of him yet. Not sure that this is the one, but it does look interesting.
