It appears he does.

Someone get ToyHax on it. I agree with all of this.... I'd just like to see them take their time. IDW pushed the Revolution-verse out at once and in retrospect there were too many IPs not enough people cared about. I think making Visionaries or Inhumanoids or Rom and the Space Knights work...

A worthwhile sacrifice for the art

"Gimmick" is such a broad term that it's almost meaningless as far as Transformers go. Transforming is a gimmick, if we're talking toys in general. As someone who went as completionist as mom, dad, and allowance would allow for Armada I... kinda don't like gimmicks that hinder stuff like...

I'd say that Skybound does it properly. One, they're not flooding the market with concepts and titles. Two, because of this they've just focused on Transformers and GI Joe (as far as Hasbro properties go, I know there's also original IP in the Energon Universe). Three, because the focus is just...

That's on IDW. More Transformers content might have juiced sales (even if it was a one-off Titans Return tie-in) than that G-d awful MASK series. Or trying to make the Visionaries a thing. And yeah, it is IDW's fault. They went to Hasbro to pitch the shaded universe idea, not the other way around.

I donno, the blurple on those animation models look pretty close to the blurple on the Studio Series version.

More so taking the piss out of Chefatron, and to go "well here you go" to people who can't form a thought only than "lol step on his foot" any time they see a pic of Thunderclash.

Speaking of which...

I'd argue there was some cross promotion there. Dreamwave is, after all, the first time Ultra Magnus' inner white Optimus Prime-esque robot was canonized in the West and that is very specifically a thing the toy can do. And while DW didn't focus exclusively on whoever the latest reissues were...

I feel like the Galvy fatigue would be lessened if they didn't release him in Legacy right after Kingdom. Which wouldn't have had to happen if they had learnt their lesson from Siege and not slathered the Kingdom version with battle damage. I'm a toy deco enjoyer myself, but I have to admit...

No, but the launch of a G1 comic and a G1 reissue line that used the new comic's art seems like a bit more than just a coincidence. It was, at the very least, fortuitous cross promotion. With IDW... it's weird. The continuity lasted thirteen years. There are so many iterations of it. Early...

The time when I'd really want to get into MPs was when I was in grad school or just starting my first teaching job. Didn't have the money for it. By the time I started making enough that I could afford them well... the more affordable main lines started doing "Masterpieces but less insane and...

Yep. And they used Dreamwave art for the boxes.

But even that had its hiccups like Crosscut being a glorified nobody and the whole mess with Jihaxus and Starscream's body changes. By the time the Prime Wars came along, however, the pattern of regular G1-inspired Generations figures was well established. And while IDW had benefited from a...

Yes, but there very much was by the time T30 and TR came around, the instances we were talking about.

I have just enough Ghostbusters fandom to want this, but not enough to pay for it.

It's the best version of the ER trailer!
