I'm sure SOMEONE has to have written a G1 Thrust one.

And of course...

I get that, but narratively the core concept is a crossover, a meeting of two worlds. And I think that helps distinguish it from the usual combiner archetype we've seen almost every other time. Although hey, there could very well be a torso bot native to that planet (I have not been following...

I think it'd make sense to keep the vehicle core + animal limbs thing going. But there are so many options. Vehicle main bodies who are the "main" brand icons you can expect: Starscream, Bumblebee, Soundwave, Jazz, Shockwave, Hot Rod And varying, mixed-release clusters of animals. All new...

Kick-blast was taken.

So it's true. The line really WAS ass.

I'm digging all of these, although some less than others -- that Spino is a bit weaker, but that pterodactyl is wow. But I love the colors on all of them. If they indeed make a stego (and they might as well, the triceratops shows that body type can be fudged from the base) I will get it on...

I imagine the goal is to reach all 32 teams eventually, but I'm guessing we're not seeing that in one huge pile for the same reason we don't usually see 32 anythings released at once, unless it's, like, Botbots. (Please don't make 32 Lacefaces, I miss the line enough that I'll be roped into...

It can always be both, sadly. Glad it's been spotted early and that there's a workable fix.

You may have to settle for a lot of great pictures of issues with QC. I was also going to be able to scale back a bit this year (waiting for later to pull any triggers on combiners), but honestly with what could happen to the prices of everything ELSE from food to other types of goods (a lot of...

Idk, I think TMNT was their only REALLY big thing going. And when that dried up it dried up HARD. Is Pixel Dan going to be offering digital copies of those? But then again it'd be nice to have physical copies...

I don't think the point was that GI Joe should rebrand as that.

It's a neat line and you can really see how into it the team is in every stream. (these streams are my favorite modern-era Hasbro thing, and I hope they never stop.) Once they decided to just go all in on the more-faithful updates their audience really wanted anyway, they really hit their...

Mm. That's good.

That's what I think Hasbro is doing by just letting Classified be its own thing, not attempting a show or movie in the meantime. Mine the nostalgia and the novelty of the new scale, let that drive a comfortable degree of sales, don't overreach just yet. (Who knows what'll happen if and when the...

In any case it's in their best interests to stick together on this. Hasbro has a lot of weight to swing and the other options are either busy/loaded or not as appealing. And the Disney properties are still huge and recognizable. I'd want to hold on to those too as Hasbro, because I can't really...

I had mostly the same thoughts in that Hasbro and Disney were probably the best match under the current circumstances, but... In a more positive light that didn't involve notions of "embarrassment" and "inability to move on". But then I'm not particularly knowledgeable about the retail ups and...

That's true, and always the case with GI Joe. But that's part of what I'm saying -- because they've kind of stopped trying to put it on a bigger stage than it can handle right now, they can just make a comparatively little fan-focused line whose only job is to play to that crowd and rehash the...

Volume, yes. But I do see your point in leveraging what works and works consistently. Maybe there's a middle ground they can find that'll be reasonable. Star Wars... It's kind of like GI Joe in that it's stuck in a certain framing, but worse off because GI Joe didn't spend the last ten years or...

I'll even take the Trilogy/Movie Advanced "is your head the Matrix or" sculpt just so I don't have to look at "we skinned Einstein and put his hair back on him". Maybe even the Trilogy color scheme as well (easier to fudge and repurpose as a new guy than the more G1 Movie Advanced colors) so...
