There's nothing to convince. If I haven't convinced you that I do understand your position (but take a different one), I don't see anything futher to discuss, either.

That's one perspective, but mine (and others) is that putting a dividing line that creates an "RiD2003" designation is something that Hasbro didn't actually do, themselves. It's something you can do on the basis of evidence (and let me be clear, I'm not disputing any of the facts you're citing...

NONE of us are confused. We know exactly what we're talking about. We're talking past each other. You're making a case literally NO ONE is arguing against, except to say that the points you're making aren't relevant to what we're talking about.

I know it's pedantic to say so, but acknowledging that the previous post is entirely correct about how late this toy came out (as well as the Armada styling of the package format), it's TOTALLY part of the RiD line. It says so right there on the package, as demonstrated by the picture visible in...

The theory makes as much sense as any, and I know of no known facts to dispute it, although I would point out that Hasbro was responsible for the anomalous "2" in Prowl 2's name. They didn't have to put it there! While neither Spychanger Sideburn nor Prowl (2) especially resembles their larger...

Are we at a point, yet, where most places are similar in terms of how many people have HAD COVID? (even places better about protocols have had most of their populations hit, but they've tended to be spaced out better, and have suffered less intense symptoms, thanks to masking and vaccinations)...

No good. We already use that all the time to describe things that aren't at all related to this "cel shading" (sic) phenomenon.

Actually, I kind of DO care, precisely because I've been struggling with language to describe this not-even-what-folks-try-to-call-"cel shading" thing supposedly attempting to emulate the comic book look (but failing, IMHO). To know that "cel shading" isn't even the right term when talking about...

I really WANT to like these comic figures. I love the concept. But I can't get past how much I HATE the comic-style cel shading. It really ruins the figures.

Myself, I LOVE the concept of these comic-colored bots, but they've gone too far in doing the comic-equivalent of cel-shading with them, and thus I'm likely out.

Leaving aside your idea of smaller versions (I can hear the cries of "Blasphemy!" among those who keep asking for bigger and bigger figures), are you aware that Encore re-issues of the original RiD/CR toys came out only a few years ago, and between them didn't cost much less (and in at least...

Perpetuating the old "Ravage is a dog" myth, I guess, but while there could be room to debate *which* Ravage mold to use, they needed something they could viably turn into Target's mascot at a small size, so I'm not sure molds for any non-Ravage characters could viably work.

I don't doubt it, but Big Finish is a MUCH smaller time committment than live-action (and I did specifically allow for such things when I said "maybe a one-off, at best"). As to taking advantage of the fact that some of the oldest actors are still alive, I was both surprised and pleased to see...

I'm not reading the comic, but everything I've read about it suggests they're sacrificing A soldier to build ALL THE OTHER SOLIDIERS. That's a rather important difference.

Unless I'm mistaken, most of the "Phase 2 reuses" came after Season 1 of TNG. Take that for what it's worth.

I don't remember that, but that fact that these aren't reissues, but instead are new molds done in homage to toys from 30 years ago, intrigues me.

How odd. I remember the originals of these (I had Donatello as Spock for many years). Interesting homages.

I'd have thought it would be worth much less than that at this point.

Neither of those serials are complete, and thus I wouldn't have expected them to be included.

Besides the episodes that are still missing entirely (or, at least, stories that are incomplete for that reason), are there any other stories besides that first serial not currently on the streaming services? I know about the dispute Echowarrior's talking about, but I'm not aware of any other...
