Now there's something that should come with spores.

Well I guess mine are gonna have to stay in storage then... Schrodinger's plastic it is. Fond of a lot of that line.

Gorgeous. I wish we'd see this (and even Cybertron Evac's) color scheme more often. Loved this redeco (the Blaze Master one not so much, because that mold was memorably unfun).

I think it's partly how impressively they managed to get articulated, accurate designs at that tiny scale, and partly the mental image of having a neat little display case of a bunch of them in that small unified robot mode scale. The latter was partly why I got sucked into QTFs as well. But i...

That would be a fun opportinity. I've been waiting forever for a way to get that helicopter/gun emplacement Shockwave from one of the games for the first movie, which is preferable to the typical gibberish-altmode one from DOTM. I'd love a Thunderwing in general. Like Powermaster Optimus Prime...

Don't need a ginormous Tankor, and I've kind of lost interest in the whole "the G1 cast are mythically huge compared to the Beast era cast". In fiction, sure, that's fine. On the shelf, that's not really as interesting or convenient as just integrating everyone into the scale that works...

Star Convoy would be very workable at Commander class, I feel. Can give him his height, similar to what Jetfire got; they can also bring in aspects of RID2015 Optimus' engineering with Titans Return OP's base mode (unfolding lower legs). Energon Prime is a fun thought exercise, but a trickier...

Iirc the 25th anniversary G1 toy reissue is sort of in that direction with its paler red cab.

I'd love a T-AI, but preferably not lumped in with this HasLab offering. Maybe give us a R.E.D figure (is that still going? If so, how about a Sky-Byte? Maybe even in shark mode) from R.I.D, and include a T-AI figurine.

The Wheeljack is hilariously bland. And the Trailbreaker, while not bad, is the definition of a lateral move (although the sky blue windows work better for him rather than Wheeljack for reasons we've discussed). So far nothing's REALLY stepped up alongside Hound to justify this set. But then...

Oh, man, give me an Earth mode Autotrooper with a ton of stuff any day.

Just stumbled upon the Dr. Wu line of tiny Transformers. I'd gotten a few Dr. Wu items in the past -- got their inaccurately-colored Slamdance by accident (translated listings are tricky) and had to repaint it, but I liked the outcome well enough -- and I still need to track down their...

The Transformers 40th anniversary rolls on, as Hasbro has announced in their press release that Dynamite Entertainment will be launching a new set of Generation 1 themed trading cards! As reported by BWTF.com, the first series of 110 base cards (out of what Hasbro promotes as a 200-card set)...

I love these as like a Night Attack Sandstorm.

I think that's more in the sense of "the car" (as in Batman and the car he drives) rather than "the one true batmobile", although there are definitely ones that come to mind for different people when the latter sense is invoked. (Which one is yours? Mine's either the 89 or BTAS.) But damn, I...

"Collect a new set of nearly 200 premium trading cards featuring fan-favorite characters from the TRANSFORMERS brand’s “Generation 1” era, showcasing classic art styles from an international array of top artists and Hasbro's design archives. More information and product previews will be shared...

It'd be nice to get a Nancy out of the Arcee mold, perhaps with some retooling to be boxier and junkier (although I'd be fine with just the new head). Sure, we've got a different Deluxe bike Junkion, and Axlegrease's head is based on the character, but neither of those is this.

Oh that's very likely. I think that was part of why I suggested a playset that had a lot of backdrop panels and such, because dio-setups could probably look workable with deluxes and that sort to walk around and pose in front of. When unfolded as a play venue, not a storage thing. But a full-on...

I'm sure Swoop will be along at some point, maybe even this year. But now I'm thinking of how hilarious it would be if they did release a comic style Dinobot with the swords and it was Swoop instead of Grimlock. People everywhere would be up in arms about that instead, because surely then...

I should really stop looking at these pictures. Shockwave I'm coming to terms with because the comic shading looks more like weird camo the more I look at it. But Stupid Sexy Grimlock, man. Just, that gorgeous blue (and to a slightly lesser extent that lovely sunny yellow) is calling to me more...
