Everyone saw what Marvel did with the MCU and went "Let's do that," like its the easiest thing in the world, and not a huge gamble that could have destroyed Marvel and required an enormous amount of hard work, luck and having people who give a damn about the property in charge.
EDIT: Also...
I can just not watch bad fiction that exists. I can't watch good fiction that doesn't exist, and it won't exist if they don't try.
The trajectory from Combiner Wars to Kingdom at least showed improvement.
The lack of good toy bios is only magnified by the fact there is going to be no Legacy cartoon and the fate of the comics are in limbo for the time being.
We might genuinely get no major fiction for the collectors line for the first time since like thrilling 30? (And even then those characters...
She shows up as a Wrecker in IDW2. She's likely based on her upcoming Legacy toy, in keeping with the IDW2 method of basing character designs whatever is the most recent toy. (She certainly bears a strong similarity to Legacy Elita-1)
The logical fallacy is assuming because Minerva showed up...
What makes him so impressive to me is that G2 Jhiaxus has a color scheme that.. well, not to disparage it, but it's the kind of color scheme that could only really come from a non-toy character in an early 90's comic. The fact that they replicated that design so faithfully, instead of like...
Now I'm curious if we'll see the other combiners done similarly to this, but I can't imagine what the "trailer" kibble would be for most of them. Feels like onslaught is the only one that might be able to get away with it.
Also it's interesting that It's just Predacon Tarantulas but Jhiaxus is...
I can't get over how good Jhiaxus is. He almost looks like he walked off the comic cover, it's crazy. I hadn't given the figure a second thought until I saw him.
Dang, I had zero desire to pick up that Jhiaxus, but I might have to get him anyway.
Tarantulus looks great, and Elita-1/Minerva might be the best female car mold we've gitten since thrilling 30.
Still torn on the stunticons. I think the cars being the back halves of the legs is really...
The reason I'm likely out on Legacy Bulkhead is because I didn't want a Bulkhead because I liked the character (I'd rather have Animated Bulkhead in that case, TBH) but because I really liked the show and wanted a collection to reflect that. There's nothing wrong with the concept of a G1-ified...
