Just watched the fanstream and yeah, I don't think that any of these are must-haves for me. Springer seems kinda cool, but I've got him already and don't really mind the Stege. I've also already got the Netflix Soundwave, so I can't imagine wanting or needing another version of that. The only...

^Because the water's warm?

It's really $80?! Does it come with the other '84 Autobots in car mode, or a trailer that doubles as a tv tray or something? Seriously, while kinda cool, I'm not seeing $80 worth of value here.

I have watched the '86 Movie many times, but I don't remember Steeljaw having a giant speaker on his back; like, ever. Is it just supposed to represent the comm tower that the Decepticons were trying to destroy during the "battle of the cassettes" scene?

^This is exactly where I am with the Thundertron/pirate stuff. Not really my bag, but I am happy for those that like it, and now have the exquisite misery of choice!

TR was fantastic. Slugslinger, Triggerhappy, and Misfire were such cool-looking toys - and fun as hell to transform!

I wouldn't say that I was religious about comic books, especially in 1984. I went in and out of stories and would pick up issues that I liked here and there. I started to enjoy drawing around this time, and would mainly choose Transformers comics with cool-looking art that I could attempt to...

Wow, I loved Mr. T and the animated Beetlejuice too!

Oh, don't you worry. I'm sure there will be an upgrade kit if there isn't already one.

I still don't have Nemesis. She and Cyberton Metroplex were the first Titans that I decided to skip. I've got The Ark and have expressed my desire for it to have just been a fun, non-transforming playset, and wish that Nemesis was as well. As it is though, Nemesis is going to have to be at a...

Preordered Prime. It would be very easy for me to be swayed by Hot Wheels versions of the core '84 Autobots, so I'm eager to see what may be in store.

^He's too old for that jive.

Congrats! And join the thread, there's free cake and punch.

I've got mine as well.

You don't (read: I wouldn't). He looks okay for a retool, but where's Safeguard, and why isn't the front of his ship mode filled in? There's just a divot left where Jhiaxus' nosecone was. Really shitty, imo. Robot mode is great but too many compromises to be worth chasing him down to that...

^Yep, he looks pretty darn good! Although I did think he was a Core Class at first, based solely on vehicle mode (seeing the pins / unpainted wheels).

Wow, time flies. I was in my second year of college, so yeah, feeling pretty old.

Wow, kids are expensive these days!

I think that Prime's battle-damaged, near-death look would be kind of interesting to see, too. Like still being the traditional color, but having warped antennae, shattered windows, the abdomen gash, cracks here and there, etc. While we're on the subject, doing a similar...

Yes! And perhaps the Autobots/Joes could have their super-secret headquarters in some sort of "hill" that is made out of boulders. Just spit-balling an idea ;)
