Toys New Age of the Primes Behind the Scenes Has a "Sureshot" to Turn Some Heads

"I can do the 'Superhero Landing' pose, now that I have knees for it to ruin!"​

I know what you're thinking: "Oh Primus, why are they letting him do this again?!"

To which I say: Don't be such a SpoilSport. That's the Targetmaster's job.

Anyway, Markclonus is back, showing off what to expect from the next round of toys at some point in the not-too distant future, and I'm back to make stupid jokes while sharing them with you. It's a win/win.

"This symbol of our freedom and liberty makes for excellent cover. Like a shield, you might say. I wonder why no one has ever thought of doing this sooner?"
or
"Hey, wanna check out my guns while checking out my guns? Yeah, I'm dual-wielding, and I'm not even a Double Targetmaster!"

"A properly rotating point of articulation is a wonderful thing to waist!"

"You can just call me Drew Carey, 'cause I've got a parting gift to thank you for playing!"​

SURESHOT! Sure to make a bot body drop!! But don’t you dare forget his Target Master buddy SpoilSport! Feels good to finally get this guy out there to yall! I’ve been trying to get this dope character out there since Legacy series 1!​

"Why are my blasts a different color now?"

"Look, SpoilSport. Everything the light touches is our kingdom."
"Dude, 'Kingdom' was like, so four years ago."

"Haw-haw! Mr. 'My Gun Doesn't Turn Into A Little Dude' can't keep up!"​

My main man Yuya san has just done it again. Dude crushes it! He always has this amazing ability to get the wildest articulation while utilizing it in transformation sequence.

"Targetmasters! Transform, and--"
"Ahem."
"Sigh, fine. And you, too, Crosshairs. Roll out, or whatever."

"Huh. You look bigger than I remember."
"Funny, I was just thinking the opposite about you."
"Would you like to go bug some dunes?"
"Would I?!"

"First person to make a 'Cheese Wagon' joke gets it right between the eyes... once I figure out where my gun wandered off to."​

The color scheme tho, sheesh, talk about that pop sizzle shake, make ya wanna get up and shout! OW! As I was saying, ahem, the deets on this guy are pretty much self explanatory. He has great ways to connect and utilize his Target Master, dune buggy mode will keep ya entertained, 5 mm connections strategically placed, great colors, grest (sic) articulation, rebirth head style to match his crew, big wheels got me giving the big feels on this dude.

"Clear your schedule for Monday nights, because I'm bringin' back Nitro!"

"So I may not be especially toon-accurate, but I'm me-accurate, and that's what counts!"

"Kids, don't try this at home! ... Are your parents gone yet? Good. Now, you should totally try this at home!"​

I somehow just couldn’t resist starting off with this guy even though the first wave of AOTP for the second year has some power houses. I think I might have to jump up to the wooly next!

So, what do you think? Does this release seem like a sure thing, or do you think they need to take another shot at it? Tell us in the comments below, or in the Age of the Primes thread on the good ol' Allspark forums! Until next time!

I'm not the biggest fan of the character so maybe there are some nuances I'm missing, but that looks like perfection.

This being one of my childhood toys, the only thing I don't like; and this is an incredibly minor thing; is the back of the car mode; the Spoiler is part of the shoulders and not part of the back. Which seems to come from them changing how the arms hide away. Originally the red part would be on the bottom and blend in with the legs and the forearms would blend in with the yellow of the car.

I still think he's great, but I would have liked if they kept the color cohesion of the vehicle mode like we see in the concept art.

If that's in reference to my line about toon-accuracy, take a closer look at the toy versus the animation model. They're similar, sure, but there's tons of differences in the details.

Not sure about the original toy so much.
