(also wow this whole campaign became really awkward really fast huh)

I believe my objection was closer to "parents of kids who have Optimus Prime can probably be more easily convinced to buy New Guy Ultra Magnus than to buy Optimus Prime (But He Has A New Trailer)" but sure whatever

The bad news is this is essentially two whole cases plus a combiner parts add-on, and I'd be surprised if it isn't priced accordingly.

So... is there a MR Soundblaster?

I feel like the ideal audience for the advent calendar is people who are into Galaxy Version or other TF model kits and haven't tried out Defender specifically. If they get into it, great. If not, the release format will help it not feel so weird to have a bunch of much smaller guys in the...

I knew there was a reason I didn't trust that stuff

I mean, Aquarium Park was already a pretty strong indication.

By that standard, we don't need a Machine Wars Mirage, because Toxitron Collection Mirage is already green.

I mean, retooling Legacy Laser Optimus Prime is retooling Earthrise Optimus Prime...

While I'm thinking about it, it's really weird that the article Sabrblade linked reports that Bulkhead will have a head, as if that was Real News. The context of that comment was that they were doing a whole gag where supposedly they weren't allowed to tell us who was in the show besides Optimus...

Not directly relevant, but as long as we're talking about nineties toylines that had Mirage in unusual decos, I'd love to see his Go-Bot look finally come back. Sideswipe's too. I have no idea how we got Siege Sideswipe and its retools in sixteen decos and none of them were that one.

I think the problem here is we've been talking at cross purposes? You're talking about "rightfully huge" as sincere enthusiasm as opposed to sarcasm. My actual objection was over "rightfully huge" as sincere enthusiasm as opposed to empty corporate marketing.

It's not a character exactly, but one of the Wisp abilities from Sonic Colors is called Frenzy.

I'm sure this response made sense in your head?

I mean, Botcon 2010 was a convention with people in attendance, so maybe you could ask whether anyone here was at the panel where the phrase came up, and remembers what the was context and what the vibes were.

There are two! One is Metroplex's and the other is Trypticon's.

I can't wait for everyone who ever threw a tantrum because someone said "children are the primary target audience for toys" to try to claim this retroactively applies to the past 25 years.

"Rightfully huge" was essentially a meme and bringing it up as an example of Marketing Gone Mad is making me feel like I'm going insane.

Honestly? All your base are belong to him.
