This brand is more than forty years old, and that history has come with an undeniable amount of refreshing, reinventing, and rebooting. That also means it's been in stores, both physical and virtual, for all that time, and many of us (certainly the older element) have indelible memories of the...

Absolutely. I do allude to the Titanium's leg transformation in my idea above. And for all its flaws this was at the time a very welcome design experiment, in my mind. Let's keep doing this (Rodimus having his own non-Hot Rod Plus transformation) again so that we can eventually reach something...

But what happens if you add Kurt Angle to the mix shut up, self, no wonder math gives you trouble Thanks for that. I think it's making sense now, as it's dawning on me that of course the specials don't replace anyone ELSE in the lineup other than their regular versions. Right? You'll always get...

On the one hand, I want an urban camo ruination. On the other hand, I wonder how a Wreckers Ruination from a straight G1 Bruticus would look.

Just realizing after the excitement fades: The problem with being interested in the rares is, well, they're rares. Burning justice Rodimus is 1/144. Matrix Rodimus is 5/144, as is Waiter Grimlock. They do tout "Secret Hidden in every case", but that requires getting, well, a box... And I don't...

This is an interesting package. I remember the box feeling pleasantly heavy in hand; not exactly "I feel great about the price now" heavy but very distinct from, say, Commander fare. It definitely gives the impression that this cost something above normal to make. I appreciate that Hot Rod is...

I've thought about this a bit, and I still don't really have a preference. Sometimes I like things like RID Landfill (a walking bag of Skittles), and sometimes I like things like, uh... RID Landfill (yellow/black). In fact, what I REALLY like is having options. I guess overall I gravitate...

I am a little miffed that it seems to echo one of the worst aspects of the POTP version's vehicle mode: the angled, cut-off pipes. A huge part of the original's appeal are those crazy curved pipes that extend the Hot Rod exhausts into this absurd curving shape that turns giant box into giant hot...

Frontpaged! https://www.allspark.com/home/threads/blokees-keeps-cooking-with-the-full-reveal-of-the-rest-of-galaxy-defender-version-series-4.3549/ This wave is the first time I've got this many I'm interested in, not least due to its apparent flood of Rodimus Primes. I may even try to track...

Blokees' 5.5cm tall chibi Defender Version series has hit its fourth wave, with the official reveal of the first few inclusions hitting a few days ago. As Allsparker Exatron points out, Blokees has posted an official drop of the rest of the wave... and things continue to heat up. It just...

Insane amount of cooking here.

THE LEGEND EXISTS

I hadn't heard about cancellations. I think they pulled a US release (iirc Hasbro's call) but they're still available in... China? Asia? through some convoluted process.

Yeah, the Voyager price point is a big factor here. That's what drew me to the Combiner Force comparison.

From the front page: the Blokees socials have revealed pics of the full fourth wave of Defender Version figures. Next combiner seems to be Bruticus, as this leads with vehicle-mode Brawl (with a conspicuous peghole toward the front of the tank).

The official Blokees account on Twitter/X has posted promo pics of their upcoming Defender Version series 4 figures! The lineup for "Tyrant's Fury" is plenty interesting, with two followups to series 3's Hot Rod and Grimlock, in Rodimus Prime (now with arm blasters) and Dino Mode Grimlock...

Maybe it'll be like an RID2015 Combiner Force thing. Simple limbs with basic robot modes, small torso with slightly less basic robot mode. This line has had a few that feel like they're clocking in above their price point mass-wise -- Micronus, Onyx, Megatronus -- and this may be similar.

I kinda dig this dino mode Grim, and really appreciate that Rodimus now has the blaster pipes. Maybe if I get lucky and snag doubles of this I can upgrade the Hot Rod. The Carl Fredricksen proportions on Rodimus (the big collar heightens the no-neck part of the SD aesthetic) are kinda funny.
