Let's not discuss attracting boys ages 7-15 😅
But yeah, I can see the marketing logic. Strong color, double down on what worked... It's just at the time they'd mashed the same button a few times already.
I think of those the ones that mainly qualify are Universe 2.0, ROTF, PCC and Generations. The others (Animated, Prime RID) had red as an abundant accent but the main color was white.
2007 movie I agree had a LOT of red, but for some reason my memory of it has the base color as black, for weird...
That's always the tricky thing about these pairs, but I've been so selective over the last year I do have a number of gaps left.
It helps that the selection is actually nice and broad. Hatchet, an Origin Bee to replace the yellowed Buzzworthy one, Hot Shot, ROTB Wheeljack AND Scorponok... And...
(I know what you mean, but toy departments in our supermarkets dwindled away to nothing maybe 25 years ago, so my version involves a supermarket and separate toy store/s in the same mall.)
Doing my regular supermarket shopping is actually what establishes in my mind that all the other shopping...
Same, actually. I think these are international releases, not the US-based ones we'd get over here too. It IS still monolingual packaging, though, so IDK.
Ayup. I actually started this writeup thinking there'd be a lot to say, but as I was moving through the descriptions of the packaging I felt...
Yes, they're illustrative of that second sentence. I originally had them paired with their horizontal packaging variants but changed my mind about the layout.
Ah, that's right!
It's a nifty design, but I'm distracted by the sharp quality of the close-up... the clarity of the texture makes the gun look like it's made out of a pool noodle.

ROTF ran for seemingly forever, with this impression being added to by its subline imprint not really having substantially different packaging. NEST Global Alliance basically added a new badge for the faction to the packaging (on the card for Legend and Scout 2-packs, on the bubble...
The 2000s, 9: Revengeance
The 25th anniversary of Transformers coincided with the hotly-anticipated sequel to the brand's 2007 live-action debut on the silver screen. The hype for this sequel was intense, despite a writer's strike that could not stop Michael Bay from filming and putting the...
Oh, the US is getting cheap Tranaformers in bundles and at prices we'll never get here? Cool, cool.
Countdown until this gets posted in the Deal thread and this is the only reaction I can manage.
Tbh one of the reasons I consciously decided to scale down around the time of AOTP launching was that even then I was feeling the cost crunch. And space, because I'm still trying to bail myself out but selling off old stuff is taking forever. I think past me would be a bit disappointed and...
It did seem odd that we got another compilation seemingly so soon after another, but then my sense of time has flown even further out the window in the last few weeks
