I interpreted the white part of the 'backpack' circled in blue (including that disc shape, and also the purple directly above) as his lower leg(s), as if his upper legs collapse into them.
Leaving the red section as either backpack or inside his legs or a separate accessory. I guess his lower...
I don't like how the tail is clearly him putting his arms over his head. You can see the shoulder joint and his hexatorso.
I guess his legs scrunch up and you attach the entire head/front? Or all that folds up into his legs?
I like the *idea*, but I hope they improve the design by a *lot*...
remember when Chris Farley was on Saturday Night Live and he hosted a series of sketches where he'd interview celebrities and was too star-struck to ask halfway intelligent questions?
That was cool.
this reminds of when VH1 did Love the 80's and it was so popular they did the 90's and then eventually a recap show for the previous week
or when a movie flashes back to something that happened ten minutes before
There's also those underwater engine pods from Armada that IMO seemed like an advertisement for an actual product.
Blindpacked random-colored build-a-figure pieces are absolutely right up my alley.
(Maybe no one else's, tho.)
I guess they don't even have to be entirely blindpacked- have one...
For a while, Star Wars accessory sets also had little droids and creatures. TF could more little drone guys and things. Scraplets, small single-piece army-builder-types-- that kind of thing.
The 5mm posts are also begging for thrusters, fins/canards/wings, wheels, armor blocks, etc-- not just...
The Four or Five or So sounds much less epic.
But seriously, if you list out separate aspects/attributes for each invidual of the However Many (combiner, bad one, beast guy, inventor, etc) it does all add up.
Same. I appreciate the premise of compatibility with actual Joes, but they're just too big.
A MicroVerse-style Joe line with compatible Transformers, some of whom are Joe/Cobra vehicles? That's right up my alley.
Hasbro could use the same scale as the current Star Wars vehicle line, even.
That's how the TMNT-MotU collab worked. They were MotU toys infused with/featuring TMNT characters and concepts
(Also compare the Hot Wheels cars with Twin Mill/Other Guy.)
The fact that they used friggin' SCAREGLOW and not any of the main Evil Warriors makes Bumblebee Armor look worse. They can dig deep-ish for one IP but not the other?
(Scareglow is awesome, but that's not my point.)
in this rant I will
I'm a little late to the accessory/blind box discussion, but...
Blind boxes make sense for army-building and mix-and-match kind of stuff. (Like 5mm-based weaponry.)
The best time for Hasbro to do that was during Energon. The second-best time is now.
(I guess Dark of the Moon and War for...
