Not really the same thing, but Voyager Soundwave shipped with his redeco Soundblaster back during WfC.
They don't generally release a mold and its redeco in the same wave, but it's not unheard of. As much I want Unicron Soldier to be someone else, I don't think adjacent waves tells us much.
I should say that I *like* thus version of Nexus. I love generic robot modes and ad-hoc Cubertronian vehicles.
It's really just the combination aspect-- and the compromises that come with it.
But enough about last week's news. Powerglide's mask is my new favorite accessory.
I *guess* that's fair, bit they played it up with Armorizers and other combiners.
Part of it IMO is the frame system, which has many many flaws (and cross-selling is absolutely one of them).
The decision to leave the gimmick/selling point on Nexus's packaging is baffling,
If you weren't at least knee-deep in online TF fandom and you just saw it in the store, how interesting would it be?
Again-- I miss techspecs. Give us *something* on the box to sell this guy.
Nexus looks like a missed opportunity to use Micronus's wheel bike and Amalagous parts.
Or 5mm posts/pegs for Armorizer/etc. action.
but yeah, the frame situation is not helping
(nor is the complete lack of information on his PACKAGING- the thing that should help sell the toy)
Leige...
Borderline nothing. The man was an alcoholic who withheld that information from his audience and his doctor.
That was why his liver was in such bad shape.
But McDonald's never fought back.
I liked how Elita-1 remembered the game from before. I'd been wondering if the show would ever repeat them, so at least we know they do repeat, in-universe.
I also kind of think the program numbers should logged somewhere. (By someone else, I mean.)
Also a good one. My other favorite was the burger-stegosaurus because it transformed sideways.
ANYWAY I wonder if the Under-3 toy is part of the theme or not. (There was a single-piece, non-converting burger dino back in the day. Not sure about the robot ones.)
I've always been able to just buy the toy, usually for a dollar or two. The annoying parts are asking which ones they have and driving to different stores, but that's the hunt anyway.
I always wondered if TM Megatron (for example) would or could transform if his big kibble butt weapon was lost or damaged. (IIRC he was knocked off a cliff or something and his BKBW fell with him without him holding it, which strikes me as cheating by the animators.)
ANYWAY G2 comic-style is...
The Omnibots have been flagrantly absent from the updates. The Powerdashers got new toys, fellow mailaway Reflector has had updates, but the Omnibots? Even Bumper has been updated.
They're just about the last of the pre-Movie
toy lineup. I think *the* last if you don't count Mini-Spies or...
IMO that's preferable to the Beast Wars-style of weapons that are integral parts of the altmode- TM Megatron, Bantor, etc.
The secretly-hidden style, though (Insecticon, Ultra Optimus Primal, etc.) was great.
I never thought the Man of Iron on the cover was *supposed* to be Megatron or even any actual character. I ways considered it metaphorical-- lots of covers depict events that don't actually take place in the issue.
That being said-- I bet the coloring in some of the originally-black-and-white...
Not technically an error, but the Cybertronian Imperials in G2 #1 weren't depicted in the later-standard green/teal and white/cream/silver. (The actual shades/hues of their unified colorscheme varied a bit, too. I assume different colorists coupled with some variation in the printing process...
