Was the toy deco Menasor box set a Selects release?

It was mentioned by a fan question iirc, and they said "maybe" they'll do it (while smirking), acknowledged the base molds already exist, and with a reassurance that if they do it, they won't be dinosaurs. I choose to interpret this as if they do it, they will be heavily remolding the core...

Having a small Monstructor is great for folks like me that are nostalgic for the toy scaling, and the base molds are already there (with the combiner part remolds) so it would be a crime not to use them. They could still do a full sized one later :) I'm sure an Abominus redo is on their radar.

I dunno, I really liked the premise of using a lot of the toy-only characters for their own story in the first IDW BW series. You could even get them off-world for some alternate hijinx, or even have them starting out as a rescue mission set during season 1, but they somehow end up in a...

I'm still not sure how they could cram so many play features into a deluxe toy, but so many of the other 13 figures feel more like regular figures (Onyx & Megatronus aside).

His dino head isn't black either :/

For the 13 relics situation, I'm reminded of the Throne of the Primes, so it's possible someone will come with a cardboard "well of sparks/kiddie pool" with slots for the relics to slot into. What would have been REALLY neat, would be if all the relics had a clear crystal bit in it, and a well...

TBF, anyone who dabbles in mind control would probably never be ok playing second fiddle in their group.

Yeah, the test shot they showed was a washed out, almost forest green, when it should be a BRIGHT green. Definitely not matchy with Grimlock, but they usually mention if a test shot's colours are vastly different from what they feel the final product will be, and they didn't bring it up here. At...

Wow, I am LOVING the look of Flatline! I've always felt Armada Red Alerts legs were waaaaaaay too long, but when it's all in black it's much less noticeable. Loving all the translucent red, new head sculpt is nice, different paint deco, and all the hand/gun attachments remind me of his spiritual...

Ooh, I might be an easy mark for a GITD Marshmallow Man...

Well, there's no reason Plasma Series couldn't have put out RGB figures, as far as I can tell. Apparently the Mondo deal had a requirement for their figures to be $100+ so hopefully that means something.

Agreed! A splash of red on the inner legs would have also looked good for balance purposes, but it wouldn't be strictly screen accurate. A toy deco on this might look fantastic, actually...with the chest loops & all...

Considering Megatron & Soundwave are getting (presumably) brand new molds, I wouldn't be surprised of Shockwave does, too.

Looks like with the switch out of the clear to opaque plastics, Perceptor's scope is now solid plastic. Bummer.

I often think of this as a "What if Generations ended, what final 10 figures would make you content?". Some great responses so far, and a lot more support for Beast Era/G2 than I was expecting. 1-3: BM Tankor, Jetstorm, Thrust 4-8: BW Quickstrike, Rampage (make it a commander), Depthcharge, &...

Just want to mention that kids swap out characters all the time. Any seeker repaint can be Starscream in their collection. Gobots Water Walk acted as both Cykill and Megatron for me, as a kid!

The shade of purple they're using REALLY doesn't like being photographed (I find a lot of the blues & purples they've been using lately tend to shift a lot with lighting). Hopefully these latest photos are more accurate to final toy.

Yeah, they wouldn't sell them separately. But would they actually be willing to do it as a Voyager? The only way it works as a Deluxe at retail today is if the body was smaller and the heads are the size of Spinister's targetmasters, which...would be less than ideal.

I'm still waiting for an Armada Sideways, though I feel it would need to be a Voyager to do the head/rider gimmick justice, though they seem to never do bikes as Voyagers (Other than the Junkions).
