    So we've seen eight of the Thirteen at this point, and we have leaks telling us the price classes of the remaining five. Given what we've seen so far, I'm curious what everyone's expectations are for the remaining releases. Keeping in mind that the AotP statue art has thus far mostly shown what...

    ... Great. Now I'm going to be disappointed by anything less than the AotP year 2 Titan being a New Rodimus designed to integrate all the Thirteen's relics... 😆

    I'm really glad they completed the set of Decepticon Battle Masters for the '87 Targetmasters. If they hadn't and had included his partner in this release, I would've been very tempted to get it, just like I ordered the Spinister two pack just to get a matching pair of partners for him. Having a...

    This is the thing I'm really curious about. When they first revealed the line and were talking about their artifacts, I was wondering if they might have anything in mind for them. So far, there doesn't seem to be any obvious gimmick going on, and they don't seem like they'd neatly combine into...

    I would've been tempted if it had the undamaged Megatron with a deco that fit better with his 2007 and DotM bodies.

    I already have Sandstorm and Slugslinger, and I was never crazy for the G2 Dinobots, so the 2-packs are easy passes for me. I'm all in for everything else, though. I was also surprised to see Alpha Trion's younger appearance, yet it makes a whole lot of sense with it being a revival of the...

    Oh, there will be a new Unicron eventually. I do think it's still too close to the HasLab for it to be realistic at this point, though. It's going to be a while yet. Mark's interview over at TFW2005 all but confirms that, I think.

    Is the SS86 Bumblebee head swappable with the WfC Bumblebee/Cliffjumper/Hubcap mold? I think I'll be happy with this Hubcap, but if they are swappable, I might be tempted to put his head on Worlds Collide Bumblebee. It's one of the spare toys from that pack that I didn't really want, but now...

    My wish would be for Anniversary Megatron to be a translucent purple reformatting Megatron.

    I don't see anything about the Titan being SS86, just SS. I'd guess one of the big live-action movie bots. Stratosphere maybe. Dragonstorm could be great. Maybe a larger Demolishor? Or Devcon? I'm guessing Titan is too big for Transit or Infernocus. I'd suggest PS2 game Tidal Wave as an option...

    Post Pictures of your Transformers and have people add captions!

    I'm keeping Legacy Soundwave. I never liked the mix of gold and yellow on Netflix SW. For Rumble and Frenzy, I'm keeping both the Siege and SS86 versions. The only one I'm iffy on is the toy-colored blue Frumble. He's just redundant with the others. For Ravage, I'm using Legacy Ravage with the...

    Hasbro: So you say you want a Titan Ironhide? :p

    Which way, western bots?

    It varies case by case for me. If I had to set a general baseline, probably cartoon decos. Like Sabrblade, I appreciate visual synergy. However, there are a lot of cases where I strongly prefer the toys. Thundercracker's wonderful deep blue and the Dinobots having a consistent color scheme are...

    Dramatic Capture Series

    I always loved the deep blue of the toy. He's definitely one case where I don't care at all about show accuracy.

    Yes, it has. See the character model evolution image on the wiki that I linked to on the previous page. The original toy has a red triangle sticker that goes on that spot on the cannon.

    I love the scale charts. They're the primary reference I go to when determining how figures should scale next to each other. However, I think there are limits to how much precision you can glean from them. Like Sabrblade points out, they aren't all done in a similar pose, so you can't always get...

    Swapticons (new gimmick line)

    Is it mere surprise, or is this the first crack revealing the abject body horror hidden in this supposed children's line? 😆

    Swapticons (new gimmick line)

    I've had nearly 40 years of practice avoiding cats underfoot. Nyx here is less than a year old, has been with us for 8 months now, and I think has already tripped me more than the other six cats combined!

    It's extra striking after being used to Siege, and Earthrise to a lesser extent. Those versions had the balance out of whack the opposite direction, with a long barrel and a really short back end. That's also not screen accurate, but it looks a lot better than this. A giant fusion cannon was...

    Swapticons (new gimmick line)

    But they're black, not orange. They're the void that literally stares back at you when you stare at them. And are completely undetectable as they try to murder you by walking in front of you as you try to navigate the stairs! And yet are also absolutely adorable...
