Iirc in a recent panel/stream the Hasbro TF team mentioned they'd sorted out the Weirdwolf panel thing. Seems like an easy enough thing to do with a small tooling change to only be one solid panel so the hinge can be thicker. And lol, I think by this time the ship has sailed on "greedy...

Noticed that too. Although the lighting in general seems to change a lot about how the colors come across; I note the same flattening or deepening in Hearts of Steel/Timelines OP. I sold my SS86 Perceptor in preparation for this, so getting this either way. But I hope the headsculpt is indeed...

Well, SOME video games. And some long-running series. But it may be more complex than that; I know people who are all in on like Elden Ring but also spend inordinate amounts of time in their day on Reels. And even with regular-length video you can notice editing that makes it choppier with...

Oh, that was another thing I didn't have. I remember eventually getting a hand-me-down of a hand-me-down of a catalog or two and treating it like sacred texts. Even when I'd grown up and eventually got a copy of the Generations book I'd pore over that. It's a big part of why I lean toward toy...

Part of me is wondering if it's that, or if this just IS what a "budget toyline" is these days and I just need to make peace with it.

I thought that was Binaltech.

My thanks. That'll do niiiicely. I mean, I wish his key were the right color, but oh well. Sprues.

Not just kids, sadly.

I'm having to adjust to seeing a lean, lanky Sideways, but it does my heart good to see that design. Now show me Excellion, damn it. The tiny edge of frame bits tease me. (Are he and Excellion just regular AOTP Deluxes? Not from a capsule or whatever? Praise be.) That Carnivac/Fisitron 2-pack...

It makes perfect sense.

I might never get one due to the likely cumbersomeness and uncertainty about what to do with it, but I just love that this exists. It's like someone forgot Double Punch existed and wanted someone to face off against Omega Spreem. Absolutely displaced Zarak Maximus. Want these colors on a...

Shattered Glass/Dark Cybertron crossover?

Bringing these into the thread from the front page. Apparently that's Mirage and Galvatron, in what might be the first dragon Galvatron since BW2! (Well, sure, RID2001, but...) That G2 colored Megs IS a retooled TLK Turbo Changers Hound. Armored something. I'd be into the beasts (the...

Allsparker Steevy Maximus shares that Collider.com has the exclusive lowdown on the next Transformers toyline, just in time for Toy Fair 2025. Premiering this summer on YouTube as "an original YouTube series consisting of 36 five-minute shorts", Transformers: Cyberworld will see familiar...

Toy Fair 2025 is under way and brand after brand, toymaker after toymaker has fans eager to see the rest of the year play out! You know, as is tradition. Hasbro has committed to "Play To Win" in 2025 and beyond, with updates for their existing IPs and licenses and some innovative new directions...

Yyyyuuup this is not for me, and this is one area where I'll be saving money. It's neat how random so much of it is (that G2 Megs has such repurposed AOE Hound vibes, what looks like Mirage as a jet, and a nifty Junkion beast dino thing) but everything looks like it's on an Authentics shoestring...

I did see a local reseller all angry at "Assbro" for doing yet another set with Jazz and Wheeljack in it (under the assumption that this was the SS86 and Earthrise molds) again. This despite him reposting a picture that clearly said "Takara Tomy" and "Dramatic Capture Series". Dude seriously...

I'm not sure if the intent has really been for all the sets to have a background element included. That may have been a coincidence between the Bridge throne and wanting to release a standalone Mainframe (very grateful for this in particular). The third set hasn't been released yet, I think? but...

I had friends AND relatives like that. Sometimes it was mangled fanon-y misinterpretations, like saying the Ultra Magnus toy came with a free "ghost" Optimus Prime (the white inner cab robot). Having it be white instead of clear made sense enough; as a tiny boi I was more familiar with comic and...
