    Studio Series discussion

    Buzzworthy and SG have both had swappable alt heads, so hopefully that's a possibility for this and the damage visual is mostly contained to that part. And maybe a sticker or two or something for the shot he takes in the chest (or a blast effect to peg onto the left shoulder, closest thing)...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Eh. I'd be intrigued by it, if only to see more unproduced stuff get produced. But as canceled things go, I always thought this was much less interesting than the RID/TM3 Megatron that eventually did get made. This was always heavy on the "how can we Geewun up this fire truck?" and the execution...

    That's boring, all right.

    Studio Series discussion

    Yeah, there was a time when it felt like Animated -- something clicked and I just no longer had a strong desire to see more of it. Of this batch, Barricade is the only real interesting one for the newness, but it may be out of place with the other WFC era stuff I have, and it's just not that...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Oh yeah. This is how I felt about the Ark too, and what I've been saying about a Lost Light if they ever make one. Er, but scaled to like Core and old Cyberverse, not the main line... This has been the case for a few of their offerings, for me. I can understand lumping together, say, 4 Core...

    Transformers: One - New Animated Prequel coming September 20th, 2024 - New Toy Official Images!

    That happiness lasted just long enough for some Paramount exec (and later news articles referencing that) to call this the "first animated movie" (which, well, we've had a decade plus of live-action movies, and, well, we've seen this before). It's since been replaced by smug um-actuallying all...

    Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

    Currently it's just the beast Battle Master partners I can afford. And I've got my eye on Skullcruncher to start.

    Robosen: G1 Grimlock Coming Late Fall 2023

    Non-converting, I assume, but there'll be a limited edition ROTB-based Optimus Prime coming out in May.

    Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

    Yeah, I mean keep like Generations etc going, but testing the waters for a year where the kids line is a Micro play pattern line rather than "G1 in this art style"? That'd be fun. Sort of like Micro Machines now but with converting and with base/ship-looking playsets. This can be flanked by...

    Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

    For years I've wanted them to pivot to micro play and give us base bots at the Voyager and Leader price points, and a non-converting Titan class Lost Light that opens up into different bases and suites.

    Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

    It was a clever shot, too. Go from expecting keys to tossed to, what the hell, a gauntle-OH

    Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

    On the one hand, Unicron. On the other hand, Unicron is the latest in a long list of "we're throwing everything we can into this, maybe one of these things will stick". The Bee solo movie was all right and very refreshing at the perfect time. But as a follow-up, this is powered by too few...

    The Repaint Concept Thread

    Skipped this Metroplex, but this would get me to buy this mold. Replace Sparkdrinker with a bunch of Grandus-specific bits/retooling (replace shovels/scoops with gun bays, big multijointed runways on the back, a helipad/shield) and get it to shelves.

    Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

    New character posters. Love how colorful and bright these are getting, and really, it's starting to feel real now, like this is really happening and the Maximals are for real going to be in a summer blockbuster. It's kind of funny to be getting this cross-section of robot faces...

    Hasbro and Mattel to produce co-branded items

    From the front page. Currently it's just Barbie-themed Monopoly and ROTB-themed UNO, with Transformers-based Hot Wheels in early 2024.
