Just remembered Magmatron was Beast Wars Neo, not Beast Wars Second. Now we'll need a Big Convoy.

They usually leapfrog Studio Series and the other Generations line. We got studio series last fan friday, so it's Legacy this time. Next time will be Studio Series again, likely.

Cores: Energon Megatron and Tasmanian Kid look good; Iwas going to skip the BW2 characters, but then there was that Magmatron tease, dammit. The rocks are interesting but I need to cut back so they're on the chopping block. Deluxes: Chase looks surprisingly good, the rock car looks like a...

I just want to know what the next Haslab is.

I've seen talk of how Power Rangers doesn't really have listings for next year so speculation is it's going on a bit of hiatus while Hasbro reevaluates the franchise.

Given the models in the show are based directly on toy CAD files rather than the toys being approximations of the characters on the show, the toys pretty blatently had to come first.

The movies frequently suck with names anyway, so I just chalk that up to him actually being movieverse Bulkhead that they threw a vaugely related G1 name onto.

Availability?

For some reason I thought you were talking about ER Prime and I was like "Hey, his trailer isn't quite THAT bad."

Literally the first paragraph Uh huh. Walking Dead and Invincible, not enough to be a credible threat to the big two. Transformers and GI Joe, though? Look out Marvel and DC!!! Please ignore the last time comics tried that. This time will be different!

He's correctly sized to fight Omega Supreme, which is a big plus for me.

Arcee is also a deluxe, not six voyager (or bigger) sized figures sold in a boxset. It's an easier ask that people do a $25 upgrade than a $200+ one.

I think Fort Max would have been a good choice (remake of the biggest Transformer ever, until Unicron at least) but they're just reissuing the not great Titans Return version, so I'm checking that one off the possibilities list. I'd want a new Devastator just based on how dissapointing I found...

I'm the only one, but I'm still hoping it's a Studio Series '86 Autobot Matrix of Leadership. Guessing it will be Metroplex or Devastator though.

Did they say it was G1 themed, or is that just an assumption people are going with since it's a 40th anniversary thing?

RiD Scourge basically ceased to exist in fiction (well, US fiction) up until RotB, and that doesn't even include his "evil optimus prime" aspect and basically has nothing to do with the original character besides choice of altmode. Outside of a couple of Japanese references, every other time an...

Scourge has to share the spotlight with Nemesis Prime. There ain't anyone quite like Sky-Byte.

Voted for Sky-Byte, the RiD character who has had the biggest impact on the franchise. Voted for Tarn. It was a toss-up betweem him or the Nemesis, but I went with Tarn because I want to encourage incredibly good recreations of an existing design.

I never realized how close Vincent Price's voice is to Orson Welles.

Yeah, like, COVID is still a thing.
