Really? I am not familiar with Super 7 fandom lore. What's the story?

What don't they like about it? Seems like a perfectly cromulent toy.

Even "playset" is very generous, and calling it an ARK playset in particular is a stretch.

I love how easily he seems like he'd fit in with the latter-year Euro G1 stuff. Those plastic colors just seem so dead-on. Even has something similar to Flash's hood decal.

Not part of this conversation but popping in to mention I do recall someone mentioning he looks ok standing with the MP cars.

Excuse me. It very clearly says his name is Character Eraser.

I would not be averse to a Transformers: Batmobiles subline.

I do kinda wish we'd gotten two heads on Gears, with a cover for the one we're not using. The way the head piece is set up is perfect for it. And yeah, that altmode is kind of a mess. "Make it vaguely truck shaped" seems to have been the entire plan. Solid robot mode and nice transformation...

They could always give him a radio voice.

Eh, I dunno. That doesn't seem very on brand for Collaborative, which has so far been riding the wave of specifically using iconic vehicles and looks with their identifying features faithfully represented. Delorean time machine, Ecto-1, TMNT Party Wagon, 90s show Blackbird... And as much as the...

If this Bee uses opaque plastic that may well be what gets me to buy it. Give me the rest of them with opaque plastic and toy decos too. I mean yeah, it goes against "toy", but it also goes against "broken toy", so that's good.

Yeah, everything that's being discussed, from issues (especially as Megatron goes) to his bully taunting to his panicked begging for his life, is elevated by it being in Buscemi's voice. If ScarJo was surprisingly engaging, Steve brought a great level of personality and edge to this. Tangent: I...

My first thought with Bumblebee was confusion that they didn't put a battle mask head on the new SS86 mold. That thing was practically designed for this vibe. But yeah, given the bunch of other reissues they have going, it's nice that this gets redone too. And in a nicer, more familiar yellow...

My top pick is 89, next is BTAS. But it's got a good shot at being 66, and I won't be MAD, but I won't be anywhere near as happy as I'd be with either of those two. It'd be funny after all that for it to turn out being the muscle car from The Batman. Or Penguin's big duck tank thing.

I hope that's a Spittor/Diver pretool...

I guess that makes sense too, as we can get lulled into bad habits when things are good -- including the tendency to avoid anything that could threaten that. I was reacting like you too upon noticing that Chekhov's gun of burying and jettisoning potentially rough memories: with a bit of "this...

And 80s kids still blame Hot Rod.

I'm not sure it was even that. It's an unintentionally (competed to Soundwave's) common voice from a damaged voice box, that's enough to get a "wow that guy sounds weird". Working it into the movie was a nice touch, especially since it added to the Megs/Starscream lore and the choking was a...

And he's blasting off to his home planet. His people need him.

I'm fine with the Darkwing thing being on Sentinel's orders. While, yes, henchmen acting on their own accord happens, this streamlines the narrative and gives D-16 another reason to feel betrayed by his idol (which we were shown him feeling anyway). Sentinel had already gotten the benefit of...
