    Transformers: Age of the Primes toyline discussion || update: stock renders of upcoming Alpha Trion, Micronus, Flatline, Fireflight, Skydive, ++

    I actually like the panels after that and don't see it as Rodimus getting all "emo", but a deconstruction of the usual woo bang bang kill bad guys portrayal of the good guys in war stories. I mean it can be an easy "add depth here" button to push but the story and character benefited from making...

    That's who I repurposed him as. I dig how the colors and finishes are coming out in these. There's a clean sort of muting.

    I think I'll wait for a gift set. If they end up making one that's yellow or orange instead to be separate from the originals, so be it. I'm interested enough, but I literally cannot afford to play this game right now.

    That's a really neat Roller from a good Unite Warriors set. If I could have, I'd have gotten Megatronia and that. As it is I've only managed to encounter people selling the Grand Galvatron set piecemeal, and only have two of the five (Cyclonus and Starscream).

    Urge to get Galvatron... rising.

    Oh wow. Could use one of those. That's an amazing deal.

    Or any vision at all. The current regime doesn't seem to have any aspirations.

    Yes, thank you. I did say that originally but the more we keep just saying "the Takara one" we might create the wrong impression.

    I definitely took that guy for granted. His tenure covers some really strong years for the company, even given the awkward stop-start they kept going into with their "media company" ambitions. And that's no coincidence.

    Hasbr-uh-oh - Business and Tariffs Discussion

    I didn't even really get into those because the proportions were just not to my liking. And then the price was simply prohibitive, which also meant it was always going to feel like it wasn't worth that much. I had a preorder for the Furai model, but the specialty store never got back to me on...

    Hasbr-uh-oh - Business and Tariffs Discussion

    I don't know that that was their best bet. It seemed like an easy money spinner to keep the annual shows going, although I can see where it gets foggy in terms of making toys stateside. I have no knowledge of how the toylines performed. Still, having so much of the production of the show...

    Per the wiki and this tweet, apparently so. https://x.com/mechtavius/status/1667326036537753601 Sigh, idk if I'll ever get around to a new one. Here's hoping they bother to reissue it at least.

    Hasbr-uh-oh - Business and Tariffs Discussion

    I think it's been "almost cancelled" and such before (once before In Space, and another time or two with network changes and company shakeups) but I think this is new. Admittedly I wasn't paying attention during the 2000s so I've almost certainly missed something. Still. I don't think it's ever...

    This is frustrating. Warden is too good to not have on a team somewhere. Hasbro for the last couple of years has really felt reactionary. Longer term plans demand a lot of investment, which is harder now, but the payoff would be so much more than the recent string of "let's try and milk this...

    Again, totally wrong continent for it. But timing is such a crucial thing too. Primuses with the Unicron head were in healthy supply at the time, but I was really in no financial shape to get an item that big-ticket. And now that I'm... Uh, still in not amazing financial shape, it's been...
