I thought from previous posts that it was just the mustache that was added to an otherwise Galvatron-y head (there's an image, eh). But that head basically IS Rodimus Unicronus, just with a few tweaks like the circles at the base of the crest and the back-sweeping side fins. The stache, the base...

LBD Nytetrayn may have been being facetious with that, but this is good information to bring up now and again. (An Animated Megatron would be neat.)

Hey, if anyone doesn't need their defective copy anymore...

"Sound brick" is basically his G1 altmode.

Dang, that's a good point. Those are annoyances on all the jets from that era (first really noticed it with the POTP jets). Be wild if this is what finally got me over the fence on these.

Wait, let me get my April Fools folder.

Whatever it is, I'll appreciate it if we get at least one version with opaque everything. That and Jazz are among the scarier molds where the tricky balance of reduced sprues and maintaining clear windows resulted in clear plastic being asked to do too much. (I'd get the Jazz, but I've missed...

To clarify, I wasn't necessarily looking for a reissue, more an alternate release like the Dirge and Ramjet I mentioned. But that's on me, I should've said "rerelease" or sometbing instead of "a straight reissue"; I just meant to distinguish that from retools like Dead Prowl. To get a Siege...

Sunstreaker I can kind of see (the recent reuse was in a store exclusive multipack). But SIEGE Prowl would be some stunning tone-deafness. That is, unless there's some exclusivity hoopla that's managed to stay in effect this long (we never did get a straight reissue of either that Ironhide or...

Yeah, it took a while before I saw any (or, well, looked for any) as well. In case it helps, these comparisons with WFC era molds are from Alfes and Tagoal on Twitter (apologies if these were already in this thread):

Got a few of these and they're kinda nice. Still mentally adjusting to how big the Energy Masters turned out to be (in comparison pictures, vs assumptions from solo preorder pics/renders), but looking forward to Nemesis Prime and trying to figure out how to get Frost Saber solo (or what to do...

The Defender Version aesthetic in general is preferable to me. Something about shrinking them down makes the stylization/art style change work better. And the faces are definitely preferable to the regular size ones, which tend to look oddly long or big for the helmets. I've idly gotten a...

Maybe he just needs a moment to ketchup. Okay, sold.

If they finally use opaque plastic on this mold I'd like to get that. Would also really help if they gave it some retooling in the right spots.

Yeah, we're well into the "streaming is eating the industry's lunch" era and it's too big a cash cow and/or pet project for studios to give up on to pivot back to making theatrical releases more of an event. I don't think much will really hit those highs anymore, and quality as we've seen is...

I'll second this. And it's both good (getting away from the other bullshit that tends to be intertwined with that) and less good (it's an approximation at best, and feels like it). They really should've kept the momentum from the Bumblebee solo of carrying some of the visual style but moving...

I'm actually hoping for an even deeper, more blackish dark blue like the deluxe Armada Nemesis Prime got. And that tan instead of gray/silver. Although tbh I'd LOVE the Costco Energon 2-pack colors, even if it's then just a name-reuse/repurpose. Most importantly I'd like it without the...

It's not a bad way to eat the cake and have it too. Have Bay helm TF/GI Joe if they're still forcing that to be a thing. Have Cooley do more prequel fun. BUT assign competent writers to both and rein Bay in. I don't mind having his era's visual styling and action shots back, but it's only going...

That looks great. I'm happy with the Takara DX retool of the combining one, but this seems to offer a compelling improvement on that. Maybe if she and Soundwave show up locally.

I think given all that I'd rather have Blokees of the shells. As long as they don't Blokeefy the aesthetic too much and still have the more humanoid/organic overall shapes and proportions rather than block-figure ones. Pretender shell-based poseable figures are cool to have, but at Super 7...
