I'm probably a curmudgeon anyway, rather than pay aftermarket prices for that Space Suit figure, I just got an orange Roboto during a clearance sale and stood it up in the corner of my Grayskull. Does the job! Edit: And got a better look at the 'Vintage' Grayskull and Space Suit set...I...

No worries, He-Man has about a BAZILLION characters, and a great many of them overlap their gimmicks (arm-swapping Roboto/Triclops, three faces/eyes rotating, neck/limbs extending, battle armor EVERYONE, etc), I don't know them all and I had a Skeletor the year he came out for the first time...

Could always do what I do. Wait YEARS due to a mix of economics and apathy, so your Collection Upgrades come in weird jumps and nothing ever matches. Like how I used a Cybertron Downshift as my Wheeljack till Reveal The Shield, then years after I went straight to Origins Wheeljack. Or from a...

I don't know...any Animated Blitzwing that does NOT wind up with a Man-E-Faces crossover I think missed the boat, despite the hero/villain mix being off.

I think the new scale for 200x is due to the difference between the original figures and the taller/differently proportioned ones. I have an original 200x Trap Jaw and he's quite a bit bigger. That being said, I don't think it was a smart choice. It makes every prior base/vehicle a question as...

Thank you Richard! I had mentioned that Hot Wheels SkyByte was the one thing from cyber world I was looking for. I was at Target just Friday. Nothing. But today there was ONE, a friend saw it, and now I've got it! As utterly bizarre as the original pictures made it appear! I'll try to get a good...

While it wasn't a thing for the G1 toy I hope Bruticus's various weapons can combine for the super robot, seeing as Ruination is probably a PulseCon combiner or something later, like they did with Toy Menasor. Though it wouldn't surprise me if the Brawl double-cannons somehow added to...

According to the most recent pictures it's 99% to Botanica already, I wouldn't be surprised at all if it was one of the Amazon exclusives later or the like.

Agreed, I never understood the whole "But they should have named it-" things. If I ever think I have a better name I just change it to whatever I want, it's MY shelf... I am considering Bruticus. Not sure. I've found most of the 'frame' stuff to be a bit dull and I did miss out on Liokaiser...

If you're referring to the joke I made, it was about the original RID Autobots. I don't know if the Hot Wheels guys have clear joints? I hope not. Also, for completionists, in theory any Volkswagen Bumblebee and truck Prime are Hot Wheels Transformers too and so is Tracks.

Maybe he's just a Robotech fan, in the Roy x Minmei fanfc camp... Though the idea of Cybertronian civilians on a Wrestling-style showboating racing circuit now has my attention. Explains the lack of factions, the gaudy licenced alt-modes, the mixed corporate sponsorships, everything. Hasbro and...

So what you're saying is the fourth movie was the Thor Looser? -I never saw it and till now didn't know there was a fourth Thor movie, so I guess that does actually mean something...

Maybe he's in the Cybertronian franchise of the Pirates Who Don't Do Anything. Intimidating alt-mode. Tuned for high-performance street racing. Sits at home on the couch watching Svengoolie and yelling about how the Transformers Franchise peaked in 1986.

The awkward part will come when Fool-Around and Find-Out attend the Cold Slither concert at Comic Con and accidentally live up to their names on live TV.

"Alpha Trion never told you what happened to your father..." "Yeah, he did. Clear plastic on ball joints, right?" "Oh. Yeah. Never mind, then. The Tragedy of clear Side Burn the Flashy..." Thing is, I do like how, unless I'm mistaken, there's no faction symbols, so you can put them with...

Well, there's only one logical thing to do. Let's film a bunch of explosions with a shaky hand-camera, blurr out something in the background, and claim it was a Decepticon. Then do it a few more times till you have an hour and a half long movie.

If anyone wants the matching Mumm-Ra to that clear Comic Con Lion-O that was originally a Cats-Lair stretch goal, it's on sale: https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/264625

Packed LIKE the Hot Wheels car, too. They did actually think this through...

I had an MMC Feral Rex, which I loved, but comparing it to the Titan Predaking a friend had, Rex was NOT a lot of fun to actually use due to a mix of sharp edges and a mass issue that caused it to collapse under its own weight (which made those sharp parts WORSE). I hope T-Spark works out a bit...

I didn't know there was a new Ramhorn and Ratbat? I knew about the Ramhorn reissue with Bombshell in the Retro line. Is the Ratbat a reissue of the Siege style one, or a new sort? I'm way behind in the news for some reason. Reason I'm wondering is my nephew discovered, by accident, that a...
