Same, think it's the color distribution (and this batch of colors helps). I'm loving this capsule.

I've been put off by the lack of a neck joint, myself, but this doesn't help.

I've been toying with the idea of repainting a Rung or a Soundbarrier or something.

Still wish they'd do one from the Supreme class Cybertron Starscream, but it's probably best they never did.

Fiddled with the thread title a little ;)

(Aha! The globe is flat!) Of Siege I only ever got the main three (well, two Starscreams, one I repainted into Skywarp), to de-Stege and have tetrajet representation finally. Quite enjoyed the mold, despite it being particularly greebly. It's basically the modern version of Pretenders, which...

I think this might be my first ROTB-proper product, oddly enough (as such, nothing to really measure height/scale against -- here, have a Flamewar). It's neat how close this is to Energon Arcee in so many respects. It's just missing a joint to flip the wheel-halves up above the shoulders. Also...

Bummed that the show-centricness mkea it quite likely that it won't have the yellow striping from the toy. But then that's why I went and got the Henkei all those years ago, so technically that's covered.

Yup, just the film and TV assets, not the properties. Sorry about that.

They're selling eOne to Lionsgate by the end of 2023 for $500 M. They're also establishing Hasbro Entertainment: Transformers and Spider-Man brands are benefiting from the recent films, with SPider-Man sales up by over 100% vs Q2 last year. Hasbro disclosed a $25 M process asset impairment...

That's actually a good idea. Like those old Impossible Toys ones but better.

To me the main thing that approached that level of bleh was Still Murderous Optimus. It continues to annoy me that they have Cullen on board and keep wasting him on RRRAGRH KILL NO MERCY faux badassery. The man's in his 80's, damn it. Let him be everyone's robot dad again while he still can...

I would've loved that. Just continuing that specific tone and combination of characters would have been great.

Think I've seen a few customs of it. If I had access to the headsculpt for it (I think some used the 3P Mech Ideas Gauntlet head or something based on it) I might've tried to make one myself.

SUPER jealous. Want that Jazz NOW. Well that cements it: [1] I need to get Tow-Line. [2] I am putting him with the Toxitron Collection deluxes as planned. Hmm, that series needs more Decepticons, especially in that scale.

It's more that the feet look like slippers, to me, especially with the ankle tilt bent. Sure, there's some chonk to the lower legs, but it's also that that suddenly tapers off an we've got flip-flops whose toes/fronts don't (maybe can't) even try to reconcile the shapes like. It's like SS86 Hot...

I wholeheartedly agree, but the answer to that is to write the robot properly, not this holomatter avatar idea. Even if the latter were somehow to be followed, the same type of writing (the humans don't fare much better in those movies) brings us back where we started. This is fair,, and I...

I am realizing how weird this sentence is as I type it, but: I wish SS86 Brawn's feet were more substantial. Less-weird thing to say and phrase: man, I am not sold on that face. Forget gap fillers and such, give me a better headsculpt for Brawn as an upgrade kit option. Actually, I wish more...

TBH, I don't disagree with Bay entirely here, but then I am very lukewarm on the whole integrating GI Joe thing. The only thing I halfway like about it is that approaching it from this vector lends itself to a more comic-booky, sci-fi-y take that may play better because it isn't a Woo Realistic...

Ehh, idk. I agree with how his formula has poisoned the well, but it's less that people want the same crap from new product and more that people have come to associate the films as a whole with that crap, to the point where any new product is preemptively dismissed as more of the same, and it'll...
