The thing that most interests me about the future of toys is 3D printing. Obviously the technology isn't anywhere near where we'd want it to be yet, but it's getting better every year. Print on Demand has beeen a viable business for stuff like RPG books for many years now. It's MTO, but always...

Difference there is Car Robots got released in the US as Robots in Disguise while Beast Wars Neo was not. Only people plugged into the Japanese scene at the time will have nostalgia for the character, everyone else will have had to come to it later. Also IIRC, there was never even an official...

We are getting two commanders a year now, though; one under Generations and one under Studio Series. Unless your'e talking about that rumor that they'd be dropping the titan class in favor of two commanders a year.

I still enjoy the Beast Wars Neo opening theme for how out of place it is.

I wasn't trying to imply doom, just a shake-up.

We still need a Windcharger so they can do a dead Windcharge/Wheeljack 2-pack.

To be honest, I have not verified this myself, but Hasbro designer Evan Brooks apparently said in the Triple Takeover podcast several months ago that the plan is to finish up the SS86 cast by 2026. (I'm assuming the end of 2026, not the start.) I suppose by that wording '86 could continue to...

Between AotP being a two year line instead of three, and apparently now Studio Series '86 ending in 2026, I'm curious if there's a large shake-up for the TF division coming in 2027.

To be fair, I wouldn't expect anyone from the original series to have much more than a passing familiarity with the franchise. People have more reverence for this now-a-days, but back then it was just another job.

I remember when people thought it was a slap in the face that they dared use G1 designs as background characters on Cybertron in that first episode.

Guys, you can just put him on ignore if he bothers you that much.

The thing with Sixshot is his alt-modes are SO abstract that if you want them to resemble the original toy/character in any fashion, you kind of have to stick pretty close to his classic transformation, otherwise they'll just look like a different compromised altmode and you wouldn't even have...

Welp, unless something goes very sideways, we're probably getting Deathcobra then. And probably the other unlocks as well.

RiD15 Steeljaw is like if Starscream learned subtlety.

They're pretty out of scale for one. Hashtag should be a voyager, while Nightshade is a tall, skinny deluxe and Jawbreaker is a shorter, wider deluxe. Thrash is a small deluxe and Twitch is basically a legends or core class.

With some luck we'll get that Skywarp and Thundercracker 2-pack reissued as well.

Reminder that you don't get charged until the campaign is over. You can grab it now and help push it to 13000 and if it doesn't look like it's going to make it, you can always cancel.

It takes place in the modern era and HoS Bumblebee is THE Bumblebee, not Centurion, and all of the crazy stuff that happened in IDW Earth (like All Hail Megatron) hasn't happened to X-files earth.

Yeah that's true. Even if that leg bulk was integrated, it wouldn't just disappear. You'd have to find some way of incorporating it into the figure, which either means a bunch of panel forming or just having the leg kibble hanging off them. That said, it's not like it did Killbison any...

Yeah, it wasn't until I saw the shot of him next to Deathsaurus that I realized what a chunky boy he was.
