It's probably possible to make a transforming die that's balanced evenly, but it'd probably be more complicated than this, yeah.

What I want to know is, are they usable as dice?

I wonder if this is indicative of Shockwave being more minor in Earthspark, similar to how Cyberverse Blurr didn't rate a new mold.

Thunder cat...

Smokescreen?

Sparkling Ice!

I guess I technically buy add-ons, in that I buy Toyhax stickers and (mostly my own) Shapeways accessories, but most of the stuff y'all are talking about holds no appeal for me. I grew up on Micromasters, I'm immune to hollow parts.

...do you have a gun to Zephyr's head?

It's very possible. I vaguely remember hearing that licensor demands were the reason for some of the oddities with Alt/BT Tracks's history of decoes, and while Hasbro seems to have a bit more pull with the movies than they did then, they're still subject to odd demands like "Dino."

I do think it's mitigated somewhat by the fact that (as vaguely implied by where I free-associated to) we never have more than a couple at once.

Yeah, but there's some variety to the altmodes, and while Shadewing only mentioned colors I feel like it being significant that they're all cars was implied. That said, Optimus, Ironhide, Inferno, and Firestar are all in various spots along the "truck" spectrum.

Actually a pretty small oof considering how tiny the portrait-mode video ends up on the forum.

I feel like if anything the problem is they put too much effort into the packaging. The phoned-in approach would have been to bundle the guns in a little rolled-up piece of paper like they do with a lot of small mainline accessories these days.

I free-associated from this and now I'm going to have to go through G1 to figure out the greatest number of similarly-colored guys with similar altmodes who ever all appeared prominently in the same episode (not counting the Constructicons, I guess). Off the top of my head the highest I can...

I've been meaning to do this since I got Earthrise Sunstreaker, but only finally got around to it last night. The heads popped on and off easily, but the hands were a pain. But anyway now I have two "new" Transformers for "free."

He's naked, so the bike is naked too.

Yeah, I figured that out afterward. Looks like you have to be logged in to see it at all, though, which is a baffling user interface decision.

Reminds me of when people were wanting Overlord retooled into a Leader class Flywheels. edit: Jesus christing hug we only just heard this existed and it's already sold out.
