Speaking of Studio Series Snarl. https://news.tfw2005.com/2023/02/06/studio-series-86-leader-snarl-first-look-in-hand-images-475292#more-475292 Damn the Dinobots are looking great next to each other. Almost makes me want to get the whole set.

Just say RotB mainline. We all know what your taking about if you say that. The best part of a fandom is that we are 0% beholden to the terms and definitions that corporations wish to apply to their products, so if something dumb happens (double use of the term "core") we can find a...

Definitely was a source of inspiration; though Furman had Cybertron as an uninhabitable wasteland and the Bots/Cons spread throughout the universe. I like the idea that the Bots and Cons have an entire nations worth of people back home clamoring for parts and materials, putting pressure onto...

Given Strongarm and Shadow Striker are in a wave with Bombshell and Detritus, I imagine that means at least one of them is a retool.

I had the idea of swapping it from an energy problem. (In the comics they had to knock themselves out of orbit in order to have an energy shortage) and make it about material shortages. Energy shortages was definitely still on people's minds back in the 80's, but these days rare "earth" metals...

They release Studio Series figures in Buzzworthy, don't they? I thought Hound was listed as one of those. Looks like I was mistaken though.

Is Studio Series Snarl going to hold the record for Studio Series figure with the least screentime in a movie? (Or game, given what's coming?) Dude was in the movie twice for only a handful of seconds each time. Though I guess that SS Hound might have him beat.

The problem is that G1 started fractured, even just in the US; Marvel Comics vs Sunbow Cartoon. Then G2 as the weird 90's growth on the side of the Marvel continuity. G1 has iconic bits, but it in itself has no definitive iteration. You can make an argument that the Sunbow toon/movie is much...

Hard to tell how well the most recent one did given it lasted 17 issues (I've seen better series die at 6 or 12 issues) and seemingly only ended because IDW lost the license.

Walgreens.com has Minerva in stock finally. https://www.walgreens.com/store/c/hasbro-generations-legacy-deluxe-class-autobot-minerva-action-figure/ID=300431835-product

Right, but that doesn't mean the correct message is going to reach the top of Hasbro. For one, they would be need to be able to distinguish that people don't like the lines because of the cost cutting measures and not for another reason - general franchise burnout, specific dislike of the line...

You ask a lot of questions thar none of us has any concrete information on. Nobody know for sure what's happening with the comics, so nobody can possibly know what the future plans are. We can only speculate based on our own personal opinions.

Unless we, in large enough numbers, just stop buying the products that come out, they'll continue to cut more and more corners as they chase record breaking profits at the expense of everything else, in their efforts to try and please their increasingly unreasonable "exponential growth forever"...

I wasn't suggesting they shared parts in common, I was taking about the aesthetics.

Is it just me or does is the non Studio Series RotB line almost feel like G1-ified versions of the characters. Like compare the mainline Airrazor to the Studio Series one. SS looks like a Bayformer robot while the mainline one looks more like something out of Kingdom.

Doesn't the show drop dramatically in budget as time goes on?

https://transformers.hasbro.com/en-us It's still stuck on Kingdom and Cyberverse. You know how old this is? Windblade is one of the only six characters on the character page!
