Preordered Alpha Trion and Orion on Pulse. Then on a whim I ordered Scraphook.
Then I saw the preorders go up on Amazon. Where I don't have to pay shipping. So I ordered Scraphook again there.
Then I noticed I was accidentally logged on to my wife's Amazon account... so I logged on to mine and...
You can see how they got there.
They wanted to do G1 Slicer out of Wheeljack.
Only place there's room is the Shattered Glass so we say SG Wheeljack uses G1 Slicers colors.
But we want to use the Slicer name because we want the toy to do double duty and Slicer is the guy that we wanted to do...
I repeat ALL 4 Deluxe Insecticons in the package mural. Yes Please?
Also, if we get through a year of mix and matchable Junkions without Rum-Maj I will be miffed.
-ZacWilliam, I'd also take a Nancy but Rum is cooler.
Thoughts:
1) Core Dinobots are fine. I might want them. For Skar if nothing else. But what I REALLY want from them are Dinoking, or even better MONSTRUCTOR.
2) Poster - Lots of awesome stuff. Especially all 4 Deluxe Insecticons are on there. C'mon Venom.
3) Junkion gimmick is AWESOME. I...
Didn't see a thread for this and we shall probably need one. Mostly I wanted to say I wish it was tomorrow afternoon already. :p
Is this the first year in a good while Hasbro hasn't had some random website do an article on at least a few of their new reveals like two days before the reveals...
Admission: I've never cared much about the Stunticons. The Aerialbots were always my combiner team as a kid, and the Stunticons were the boring ones I let my little brother play with.
When I bought Dragstrip I assumed I'd complete the team. And they DO look better than the CW versions, but...
Y'know some of those toys are a Stretch for Buzzworthy but at this point it's been all over the place enough that I'd fully accept them. I do wish they'd given Barbecue a more Bumblebee inspired color scheme though.
-ZacWillian, that costume would probably read decently as a bee keeper in...
My Amazon order of Tarrantulas just shipped this morning. Despite still saying December when I went to bed last night.
-ZacWilliam, Elita still says Dec.
It's worth noting that QC varies a lot between figures sometimes. My Road Rocket is absolutely fine. No joints that were even a little loose.
-ZacWilliam, no QC issues at all, she's a great figure. Clampdown too.
No. But then this is Shadowstrip. There's room for why the new name lore-bits, ("Has entered the race under an assumed name after Scourge forbid the Stunticons from competing.") or interesting "why's he in the race" story-bits ("Was ordered to help Scourge win, but has decided to go for it...
Yeah, these four small crowded pages of fun Comic has made the Velocitron capsule my favorite TF toyline this year.Because they are a fun energetic story that clearly loves its subject.
-ZacWilliam, where as the rest of Hasbro's offerings are completely story less and hence so much more grey...
Well Hot Rod and Shadowstrip's bios are about as boring as possible. Hot Rod joined the race to show people he's fast and Shadowstrip is just described like Dragstrip, someone who'll do anything to win.
Crasher's is a hair more interesting, but just a hair. They describe her personality as...
If I didn't have the first I'd be cool biting on the second. Difference isn't enough for me to even consider buying him again.
-ZacWilliam, I like the concept of a toy and a Cartoon version being made but I absolutely dont need both.
It's not an obvious choice I admit, but it's not like we ever saw her RiD robot form in the show and I'm very into the idea of more lady TFs with varied body types.
-ZacWiliam, her being a thief and Doubledealer being kind of a con man made me make the jump in my head I think.
Hmm, just as an Exercise, what I'd do if I had to use each:
Optimus Prime - New Head (Previously Micromaster) Overload
Ultra Magnus - New Character, M.A.S.T. (Mobile Army Surgical Transport) named "Lifeline" Medical Deco.
Beast Megatron - Armada Predacon
Galvatron - Straxus remold
Blitzwing...
There's 1 Voyager in Wave 2 - We know it's a Hot Rod. Probably a repaint of the SS. No one know what it looks like but current theory is toy colors.
There's also 1 new Leader in Wave 2 - No one has any clue what it will be.
-ZacWilliam, the Leader is already in US warehouses so you'd think a...
