In 10,000 BC, they replaced the mammoths with elephants and the world has been going to hell ever since

When I first heard of these, I was pretty excited as I actually love the Zuru 5-Surprise Dino Strike figures (they're 90% of the way to being Dino Riders, just missing little seats and, well, the riders), but the execution of the Transformers ones are a little lacking. Thinking I can skip these...

That is a huge improvement. In it's original form, it's just too large a swath of plain teal. The caution striping and Decepticon symbol really help break it up.

I do love the large scale of them and the fact that they can be a playset (something that is far too rare in today's toy ecosystem). I like to keep mine surrounded by roughly Legends of Cybertron scale figures to make them seem even larger.

Classics Prime really was a great design. I still have my original from back in the day, so no need for a KO, but for anyone that wasn't collecting 19 years ago (damn I'm old) it would be a good way to experience it.

I like the original's purple and translucent teal, but I like the darker gray

SOLD!!

This is true. I would 100% be ok with getting a newly-mold Metroplex instead of a re-release.

Based solely on the fact that I want one and don't want to pay e-bay prices: Yes.

Those were my first Dr. Wu cassettes, too. I loved them so much that I bought Slamdance and Decibel as soon as they were available, too. I'm a sucker for cassettes, so I'll buy pretty much any of them that Dr. Wu wants to make.

It really is the best Star Wars has been. I'm still 2 episodes from being done (we're slow to watch tv), but it really is so, so good. I would love to see this level of writing and production be a reoccurring thing for Star Wars shows. I'm not at all opposed to the "dumber but fun" Star Wars...

I like that they're letting Star Wars be a lot of different things right now. "Star Wars" doesn't have to be a specific tone. It can be a setting, with a ton of different types of stories being told that take place in that same galaxy. You can have your adult-oriented political spy thriller...

It would have been interesting in that it's kind of Optimus Prime's colors, just in (mostly) the opposite places.

Beautiful. No notes.

I always just shoved the big head back there so I wouldn't lose it. I guess it worked ina way. Now, approaching 40 years later, the only part of my original Powermaster OP that I still have is his head, which I converted into a custom Pez dispenser somewhere around 15-20 years ago.

John Oates has secretly been G1 Stranglehold all this time!

Huh. Now I kinda want to see that mold in blue.

Bumblebee was amazed to discover that when the Cylon was saying "By your command," what he meant was "I love you."

Ha! very much in a "it's ALWAYS been that way, YOU'RE the one that's crazy!" way. As an aside, I'm not usually much of a purchaser of upgrade kits, but I would 100% buy an aftermarket toy head for Walmart Retro Bumblebee. Just take a casting of the Goldbug head and match the yellow plastic...

Yeah, to me the line is built for toy colors. Being exactly the 1984 toy but with full modern articulation is the whole point to me, but I can understand how some people would want the cartoon colors.
