What's truely outrageous is I saw those dolls on the clearance aisle at WalMart recently. They haven't even been OUT that long, have they...?
I never saw them out, period. Got this one for $15 off the clearance shelf and it's the first time I've seen them in person.
Is the outlining on that shield meant to be asymmetrical?
Ye. The shield has a nub for a blast effect on one side, which means the outline couldn't be continued.
It's been a while since I have paid much attention to Classics OP. I really should appreciate this toy more.
When Legacy Cosmos was first released as a WM exclusive, the only indication of his existence that I ever saw was when they put up the clearance shelf tags for the whole capsule and one of them had his name on it.
We were talking about these 3 over in the Studio Series thread. Thought I'd snag a picture of the way I display them.
Time to dust my shelf! LOL
I did see that and agree about Airachnid. I want to like this, and I feel they did spend on her in a way that makes her more durable than she might have with more cut corners (the bulk of her spindly stuff is pinned or riveted, at least). But it's kind of a chore to pack away in altmode even given that. Bumping her up to Voyager would have been welcome.
I am kind of holding out for more unusual or uncommon Seekers from the One design (Red Wing, Slipstream, or dare I hope for some generics), but I'm kind of tempted by that Thundercracker. This design in general is interesting and lean, jet mode is nice and sleek, as opposed to "cumbersome despite getting points for the unconventional design" like the Bumblebee movie Voyager mold. And the combo of dark blue, inverted robot mode wings, black instead of silver/gray, and visored head all make it distinct enough from the usual Thundercracker take that repurposing will be easier. Basically everything that Starscream isn't, heh. I might pick one up if I see it far enough below retail.
I only got this mold as Ultra Magnus. And while I love it and it's a favorite, I really wish I had it as Optimus, too.
I lucked out and got it as a Christmas present back in the day. He is on my Optimus shelf right now.
