I'd like to see a side-by-side of the previous release with this one in the same lighting (I've seen cropped photos side by side), but right now it's still looking a bit too similar for me. If anything it's not blue enough? Or too saturated? Something. But it does feel like a few clicks away...

I forget if I've shared this before, but I remembered I had the picture when the Galvatron discussion came up in the other thread. This is the Dark-ISM (3P) head for the WFC Galvatron mold. Decided to get it to set my Galvatron and Galvatron II apart, and so I wouldn't have to look at the...

I think the DW G1 comic/toy overlap was largely coincidental, in that G1 was experiencing a huge revival at the time and both avenues were being used to cash in on it. They weren't actively promoting one another (beyond ads and blurbs). Sure, there'll be some cast crossover, but it's not like...

A redo of Prowl with faded eyes and a blast effect simulating the smoke billowing from his mouth. Make it a two pack with just Earthrise Starscreams's lower legs in charcoal gray and a flattened crown that 5mm pegs under Galvatron's foot.

I've got the Selects toy colors one to try that with, but otherwise, same.

I'll be glad to finally get Hatchet. I'm kind of either/or on ROTB Scorponok and Double Punch. Although I will say I wish Double Punch were more in the Botcon Japan colors with the dark blood red base. Although sure, I'd prefer that on Kingdom Scorponok anyway. This is just a bit... boring...

I recall there started being a push to use toy designs in the comic around All Hail Megatron, so we'd start seeing things like Universe Sunstreaker's look. If I were Hasbro I'd have just asked for a Titans Return miniseries or something, disconnected from the main comic. Or run it as backup...

I've held off on the Unicron so far, but this looks like a good one to get.

It's that Homer Simpson meme where the back view is lots of trails of super glue and ends of scotch tape holding the shoulders together.

I'd completely forgotten that Titans Return did that, or maybe I tuned them out entirely at the time because I thought they were just generic line promo rather than individual character blurbs. Damn. I miss lore.

I do like how it worked the other way around, when Hasbro made toys of a bunch of characters who'd become fan favorites through that era of IDW. Tailgate, Brainstorm, Swerve, Whirl (albeit less MTMTE and more G1)... I just miss having regular fiction tying in with the toys and bringing things...

Yeah, and then there's things like Starscream dressing up like his Armada self just because and Jhiaxus copying it but in orange just because. Titans Return was like Crosscut's situation but for the concept of Titans Return.

It's kind of a shame after how well everything went (more or less) with Dark Cybertron/Thrilling 30.

Man, I really need to (checks notes) not be on a totally different continent when this sort of thing happens

I just had a vision of a "distant dystopian future" Jurassic World, with humans riding teched-out dinosaurs to fight robo-dinosaurs and other mutated creatures...

I love how their hand positions make them look like finger-snapping backup singers.

Yeah, damn, I'd have definitely grabbed one at that price.

I guess I do prefer that to the rumored "Mandrake". He can just be The Other Mandalorian. I mentioned it in the front page article I think, because that was the thing that most caught me off guard about it. Neat idea. (Do you mean you can't help but love it?)

oh lawd he comin

This has been the last few years for me, too. It's too bad selling stuff is such a pain.
