When's the next toy-reveal? They did the last few sets and now have a 'fatal wounds' Prime and Megatron, plus that dead Earthrise Prime. We aren't far off from a 'full' set.
With all these movie-themed sets, maybe a Springer and Arcee "Better Things to Do Tonight Than Die" set?How long until Target gets a Dead Wheeljack and Windcharger set?
There are more visually interesting 5th or 6th gen fighters, from the Su-57, the J-20, or 6th gen concepts like the F/A-XX.It's quite possibly the most advanced fighter jet on the planet.
Like... the F-15 may have a GOAT'd Kratio that will never be topped... but there's no reason why the Seekers would choose F-15s over F-35s for their alt modes, aside from OOC nostalgia.
More specifically, the UNITED STATES auto industry is boring. To be fair though, Transformers tends to skew towards high end sports and specialty vehicles that aren't the typical "bubble sedans" most people drive. That's part of the appeal of these as toys!I mean, he's not wrong that the auto industry needs more flourish and whimsy.
Yeah, I'd be down for a "hug, this hurts" grand boxset.

I do think a Prius would make a great modern Throttlebot(and totally not biased by owning one)More specifically, the UNITED STATES auto industry is boring.

...yeah, but I said those parts were unpaintable plastic, so even a toy colors deco would still leave them barren.
I don't know, but if it happens, Wheeljack will get a more show-accurate chest, just banged up. Like what happened with Ironhide and Ratchet's decos, lol.How long until Target gets a Dead Wheeljack and Windcharger set?
The Seekers were F-15s in the 80s, when the F-15 was the most advanced fighter on the planet. That's the F-35 today. I'm not particularly concerned with the subject side of it all.There are more visually interesting 5th or 6th gen fighters, from the Su-57, the J-20, or 6th gen concepts like the F/A-XX.
Eh, I'm sure that appeals to some people. Me though? High end sports cars are fun, bubble sedans are boring... but the real sweet spot for me is late 70s/80s mass market boxiness. Skids' Honda City alt mode is my jam.To be fair though, Transformers tends to skew towards high end sports and specialty vehicles that aren't the typical "bubble sedans" most people drive.

If they ever do the Titan Spanner that ZacWilliam wants, he can come with a Yugo partner/minion. And a fan.Give me a Yugo Transformer, and give it GPS on purpose.
We jjust got a Trypticon redeco, right? Somehow, a Titans Return Titan returned.Somehow, Titans Return returned.
Look at this peasant who doesn't drive to work in his not street legal European Formula-1 race car.See, literally what I was saying: it's one thing to hide as a car, to be a robot in disguise. But when you choose a vehicle that costs a million or more, is high grade military hardware, or only exists in a product run you can count on one hand: you aren't hiding in plain sight.
Be an armored cash truck: no one notices those in cities until they're pulling up out front making it a pain to leave. Be the ice cream truck: no one will notice unless they want ice cream, and even then: they're not LOOKING, they are LISTENING. Don't be a cop car: generic decals don't work out.
