I know there are a multitude of reasons to sell updates of figures beyond just improving them, but Cybertron updates do have the added difficulty of making new figures of what were already extremely good toys but with a now smaller budget.
Yeah, it's very clever. The way that the normal shins move up to cover/lock the small knees and make the small hips into the super robot knees while the super robot hips and thighs transform out of the torso is all so well done.
I don't know if I need it. As I said in the main thread, I...
It was a dark night in the city when Jetfire walked into my office. He was all legs. No, seriously, he was just a pair of legs.
From MarkClonus on Instagram, we have additional pictures of the upcoming Armada Jetfire toy including the first picture of him in "pants" mode combined with Armada...

Throne of the Primes is a surprising re-release. I mean, good on them for trying to get rare things back out onto the market, but that particular one just feels so much a "product of it's time" that it feels weird to see it come back out.
I'm definitely on a case-by-case basis with replacements. They have to be a LOT better to justify replacing a good figure. Sometimes I can justify an additional version of someone if they fill a different niche. For example, I think Thrilling 30 Springer is a better toy, but I did buy the...
