On impulse the first answer that comes to mind is Cybertron. It's such a wonderful culmination of everything. But really, why choose?

I wish they'd rerelease this as a Halo of Primus, with gaps for the Prime Masters to fit within, where the symbols currently are. (And maybe for the names to be in Cybertronian instead). There were are some nice 3D printed efforts out there and one prohibitively expensive copy thereof with cool...

All I got today is this crippling sense of FOMO.

6+7 = 13 OMGWTCHOP

I'm only vaguely recalling that from one of the leaks. But I've also been very low on sleep the past few days as I'm crawling toward a couple of deadlines, so it might be the Mu Shu Pork or whatever.

I'm surprised at how much I like that Sentinel, although it's not THAT much. Never minded the Tarn mold, and they did a lot of new things with it. Not a fan of this altmode though, and he needs to be beefier and more beweaponed. Content to keep using the TR one, which has kind of stuck in my...

Still prefer it a bit to the ROTB design myself. That does some good things in streamlining and cleaning it up but ends up with some elements I don't dig, like the oddly high grandpa waist. Neither is as good as the 2007.

A lot of things have remained the same in Hasbro and in the industry at large over the last... 23 years, but a lot has changed as well. Not the least of them being that neither Archer nor Lomow have even been at Hasbro anymore for years by this point. We have multiple eras of combiners and...

Written out like that it sounds interesting, but to actually watch it and just see various remixes of the same "do stuff-dramatic pause-OPTIMUS NO-reassuring dialogue-dramaric hint at something" sequence for a few episodes, it just goes flat. And things were already flagging after the big...

After a few neat little things in the early waves, I'm content to sit this line out entirely. MAYBE I'll get the Frying Dutchman Scourge. It's not a particularly rational vibe but the lack of articulation is actively undermining how interesting some of the designs are. And this toy commercial...

"Ivory hunting is HARD. I can't see a thing through these this glass."

I'm somewhat intrigued by the idea of a Missing Link Skyfire that hews more to an Arcee approach than an Ironhide approach. Just sort of a "we tried to recreate a Macross-ish design from memory" with lots of surface-level "limited by 80s engineering" jank. But I hope it looks like the show model...

Nexus should've BEEN the frame, turning into idk a giant Enigma of Combination. Let him be what makes combination between combiner groups possible. But that'd still be bigger than a Voyager I think.

Got your nose! And, uh, the rest of it

I mean, what day of the week is it?

Yes, and eventually (not a Diaclone thing) yellow Tracks. But only if they fix the issues with the mold.

This was one of the big reasons I loved Selects, which seems like it would be a natural home for things like Riggorus, Reboost, and these as-yet "new" Diaclone relatives.

Not a fan of this mold, but I'm in for any of that era of eHobby stuff, so I skipped Blitzwing and was happy when this was announced. Prices were also not as volatile and ridiculous at the time (feels much further away). SS86 Blitzwing (or DCS Blitzwing, idk) is in that "if and when I have money...

Missing Link might yet do it. They're not doing it right now, but they also didn't do a cartoon Bumblebee head right away (despite Convoy and eventually Grimlock getting simultaneous cartoon versions). Even that was a (small) divergence from the "toy-based" vibe. It'll be good to have options...

This is the one thing I'm not so sure about. It may be a while, but Takara might jump on this. I can see there being an intermediate design step between "G1 toy with retooled articulation" and this current, more transformative take that they could roll with. There'd be demand for it, and it'd...
