    New TakaraTomy Legends Line

    I am oddly excited about this. It's not likely to be something I can consistently patronize, but it's great to have options. And I've gravitated toward things like Dramatic Capture more and more of late anyway. But I'm especially excited for the possibility of more bonkers manga work.

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Dark blue with silver spatter, resulting in "stars" in different sizes more like a snapshot of space than the usual stylized five point stars. (And maybe a yellow head crest in robot mode, which aside from evoking the beak is a nice splash of bright color there). Although then it'd be Space...

    Transformers CyberWorld: Optimus STILL Hates Spiders

    I'm glad they cut bait as soon as they did, as late as that seemed. It makes more sense to outsource the whole "non transforming poseable robot mode with accessories" stuff. The results have been a mixed bag (currently the Auldey ones look the best) but the niche is filled, they're not taking up...

    I couldn't remember either, but some Googling turned this up.

    Transformers CyberWorld: Optimus STILL Hates Spiders

    As with so much of Cyberworld, I crave this in any other line than Cyberworld.

    Transformers Collaborative series

    I'm happy to pass on it too, Murica or not. But that red Twin Mill? Give me that right the hell now.

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

    I think a more modern franchise movie might have done just that, if they did anything so drastic to their existing characters at all. But it was a different time, when the focus was more on expanding the toyline. The bigs back then ran on the whole "cast of thousands" thing, where every series...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    That much is true. And the last time some dipshit snuck a reference to that into a toyline, Hasbro explicitly disavowed it. The fact that it had to be snuck in rather than something that was front and center suggests this is not something the company is comfortable dabbling in and associating...

    Transformers CyberWorld: Optimus STILL Hates Spiders

    So far as cool as everything is for the next waves of this toyline, I'm content to pass on it all, especially the bigger items. I love these designs but I can't enjoy them as much if they just stand there without even any elbows or neck joints. But that Scourge? Sweet damn, I will have that...

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

    And in 20 years, Takara can follow suit with Kiss Players: The Apology Tour for that 40th anniversary.

    Transformers Collaborative series

    Yup. There's no technically about it, that's what it is. That's unfortunately shaded into by some absolutely atrocious garbage, but one is not the other and conflating the two sets the discussion back. If this were a celebration of this administration it'd be a bribe, not an actual solicited...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Plus, again, the occasion itself would have been on their radar years ago to plan something for. Entirely unrelated companies latch on to Valentine's Day, this would make even more sense to jump on. The specifics escape me at the moment, but there's been a few instances of companies and...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    I'm not even touching the potential political nature of this other than to say that the YEAR makes sense for such a themed release (I'm surprised Transformers is getting in on it, seems more a GI Joe thing, but why only have one finger in one pie), and I'd guess these have been slotted and...

    Studio Series discussion

    These proportions on Bruticus are looking much better; I think it may be the Onslaught colored bases that look invisible because your eye stops at registering Brawl and Swindle. The little panels each has on the front help draw the eye to the real size of the foot. Of course now he looks like...
