    Transformers: Age of the Primes Thread: ll First Post All Listings II Update : April 12th, 2027 Bonus Wave: Repaint fun, Beast Wars, G2, Machine Wars

    I believe that somewhere, on another forum, it was mentioned that the price will be $90 (or $89, depending on if you're a glass-half-full type).

    Post Pictures of your Transformers and have people add captions!

    For me, one of the more enjoyable aspects of collecting G1 ( or pre-G1, in this case) has been the ability to take them apart and reassemble them using cleaner pieces/parts. I can remember taking apart both Shockwave and Jetfire to build the specimens that I currently have, and it is super...

    Transformers: Age of the Primes Thread: ll First Post All Listings II Update : April 12th, 2027 Bonus Wave: Repaint fun, Beast Wars, G2, Machine Wars

    Yeah, I've got a small display (pun probably intended) of what I consider to be micro/mini beings. Micromasters, various other "-masters", Decoys, Spy Changers, Mini-Cons, etc. Dinoking is proudly among them, as Monstructor will hopefully be, too. For me, it just depends on when and how this...

    So cool! I never had Monstructor as a kid because Transformers had kind of lost me by '89. I was growing up and even at the ripe old age of twelve, felt that the Transformers I saw on toy shelves weren't "my Transformers" (and of course they weren't; how could they have been?). Still, I had...

    Hasbr-uh-oh - Business and Tariffs Discussion

    Snake Eyes is/was just a cool-ass character, and so is/was Storm Shadow. All-time favorites of mine, when it comes to matters G.I. Joe. And yeah, my man Snake Eyes has some killer dance moves!

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    This, 100%. As a kid, I used to love peering out the window at the garbage truck as it drove by. I thought it was the coolest job in the world, and loved that the garbage men got to ride on the back (of course, at the time, I thought that they rode back there for their whole shift :LOL: ).

    So do you really love the simplified animation styles?

    I *think that I got mine through BBTS but I will have to check. Edit: Nope, it was Amazon, too (July of '22)!

    So do you really love the simplified animation styles?

    Yeah, I went in on the regular Reflector (sorry, just not gonna call him Refraktor). Then, like Sabrblade, was able to get the toy deco with camera fixin's for a good deal. Now, I am eagerly anticipating my PoL with the Sunbow design (and extra Thundercracker accessory ;) ).

    So do you really love the simplified animation styles?

    I don't mind the aesthetic choice to make things smoothed out (on the r&b tip), but I also don't want to double or triple-dip for a figure that I already own (looking at you, Shockwave). Had this version of Shockwave been released first, I'm sure that I'd have bought it. Now though? Nah, B...

    Robot Masters!! I had Starscream for the longest time - might even still have him somewhere. (By the way, that rug really tied the room together!)

    Upcoming Live-Action Film Rumors

    Especially Bumblebee. That was a high water mark for the live action Transformer film franchise. Not saying much but still, a decent Transformers film with an actual plot that can be followed.

    Studio Series discussion

    Yup. And as a Hasbro Pulse Premium member, I went straight to BBTS to secure my preorders. I did hop on Pulse just for grins, and it looks like Skywarp is already sold out. Still laughing at how a preorder for something like Skywarp is "sold out", but okay Hasbro. Yet again, I'm so glad that...

    New TakaraTomy Legends Line

    I was always more captivated by what Takara did with their decos, so I will watch this space with some anticipation.

    Fixed that for ya ;) I'm only kidding! I understand what your original post is getting at, though.

    THE Transformers THE Movie THE Apology Tour: We're Sorry for Killing Optimus Prime

    I enjoyed reading that old synopsis of TFTM! Like others though, I have some qualms about a few things, the biggest one being: if you didn't know what The Transformers were by 1986, you were the problem!! :LOL: Seriously though, I feel like the film does make an effort to setup the basic...

    THE Transformers THE Movie THE Apology Tour: We're Sorry for Killing Optimus Prime

    I like The Transformers The Movie. I watched it in the theater as a kid, and I appreciated it, warts and all. I made my peace with all the deaths/reformattings long ago. I still like watching it in a movie theater from time to time, if I get the chance. Seems like that chance might become...

    Studio Series discussion

    I'm actually excited about that Matrix! Kranix looks good and so does Skywarp, but I'm pretty underwhelmed by the rest. I see they're tackling Astrotrain again (cool, I guess?), and milking as much mileage as possible from that Shockwave mold. It's cool that he's de-greebled and isn't saddled...

    I absolutely love the Vehicons - especially the hover car version. I kept most of mine and will have to dig them out at some point. It's been a while...

    That's very odd. It certainly isn't the way it goes for me, as I generally will "fall back" to BBTS if when Pulse sells out. And to BBTS's credit, I actively choose them over Amazon, knowing that I will lose money on shipping. Amazon lost my Transformers-related business long ago, thanks to...
