For some reason the shades make it pretty tempting. But what I'm really hoping for is for them to get past the usual Seeker colors. Do a Skywarp to round these out, then get into the further reaches and surprise us, similar to how randomly the green Bumblebee movie Thrust showed up. The concept...

Because then all the people screaming about how a dimetrodon is not a dinosaur would come out of the woodwork protesting that the name is patterned after the Dinobot name. But then much cooler people could stop them by saying "joke's on you, the name is patterned NOT after the Dinobot name...

This sounds amazing.

I mean, it WAS the 90s, who's to say Black Shadow wasn't a Space Gangsta What just happened

Roadbuster would be a perfect candidate, but I don't see them taking that layup. These remakes seem to either be "I see what you were going for but it's heavily compromised because 2/3 of it is someone else", or "wow this was blessed with its own mold and can be crazy faithful". Maybe to...

I'm in for that second one. Viper was pretty cool and I hope they make a new one along with Bad Boy. But for the former, I'd prefer new characters. For all the development they'd probably never get, it'll still be less annoying than the millionth "but why is the AWE Striker Bumblebee, he's not...

I would actually not mind a separate subline or capsule that uses the Headmasters/Titans Return play pattern.

I think part of that is just the dearth of Transformers that aren't remakes or expansions of existing concepts or designs. It's been a minute since we could randomly get something like Energon Snow Cat for the first time. Idk why they don't do it for, say, Cyberworld, but I more fervently want...

In a vacuum or in general I get it. The vehicles are supposed to be the moneymakers because they're generally large, empty chunks to produce, so pivoting to needing a lot of engineering and parts is not the move. But it's such a no-brainer for a Collaborative line. Joe compatibility has to be...

They could just retool the lower half/legs so he becomes a fat/wide engine block. I do hope they also change up that spoiler. Sureshot is a fun mold but that part was annoying.

The listing does specify "Headmasters", so idk if it'll be a head without the visor that the Rebirth-based Legacy one had. Seems like a lateral move, unless they also spring for the little blue wing piece.

That's a neat wave. Very glad the newer stuff is mostly evenly packed. So tempted by that Megazarak... But can we see the Machine Wars Starscream already please

So... anyone else seeing this on their Legacy Beachcombers? (The thread also mentions Sandstorm.) Something similar to the problem with blast effects being left touching painted plastic too long, or the older ROTF Bludgeon treads thing. Ymmv depending on climate and other conditions I guess...

Had that gut reaction too, a pretty pleasant push on a very specific nostalgia button. It'd be pretty interesting if the Thirteen got retooled into various Unicron cultists and heralds and whatnot...

I used to have those a lot more often. Usually in the vein of a G1 remake with modern whatever, back before those became commonplace. I remember one where I saw a remake of Slag, about Deluxe size, packaged in dino mode in a white/silver/black box with red accents that reminded me of the silver...

Does seem to be a Megatronus base. Makes it a somewhat comfortable pass, although it could look really good in color. I wonder if they'll eventually make a comic series Fallen in entirely black with a lot of glowy orange/yellow wash. Maybe that'll get me to buy the mold.

He's an Earthrise Hoist/Trailbreaker retool -- if the neck joint is the same, those should work at least. I don't have this (yet?) so I can't check. I am very tempted by the fact that he seems to have opaque plastic rather than clear. Plus some neat accessories.

Has anyone done up AOTP Alpha Trion as a Matrix-deformed Blobby Scourge?

New ep is up, and DWJ would love it. A number of cool moves, "broke me in half", and... An actual interesting twist.
