Transformers Collaborative series
- Thread starter TriBlurr
- Start date
I'm not super interested in them, but they're interesting enough that I kind of want to get exactly one of them... which is why I don't have one, because I'm holding out to see if more are coming, because I think I'm morally obligated to go with the Panthers if they're an option.
Supposedly ALL teams are getting one, they're just rolling out in waves to not flood the market.
Hasbro can do this jive, but not mobat prime...
Thanks to TFW’s Jtprime17, we now have a new batch of codenames for some upcoming Collaborative projects:
-“kick”
-“race”
-“green”
-“song (SDCC exclusive)”
-“Cemetry”
-“monster jam 1”
Not really sure what some of these are but I think the last two may be Monster Trucks. Well, the last one certainly but it's certainly possible Cemetery might be Grave Digger. Wouldn't surprise me if Monster Jam 1 was Bigfoot.

So its probably not Bigfoot.
EDIT: Anywho, my thoughts
Kick: Has got to be Soccer/World Football. They did American Football, but that a very regional thing. A soccer transformer could be sold in Japan, the UK etc. etc.
Race: I hope it's the Mach 5 from Speed Racer, though I've seen speculation it might be F1 related.
Green: Could be anything, really. Yellow was Tonkanator, Blue was Sonic/Tails and iirc Black is the rumored Batman figure. Someone suggested Halo and I could see it. Green is the Xbox color, Master Chief is Green and the Warthog is green. Makes a lot of sense.
Song: People have suggested K-Pop Demon hunters and Hasbro already has a relationship with Netflix, and given how much it blew up, I honestly I think a K-Pop Demon Hunters is likely.. which is why I don't think it's this. They'd want to get that out into every store possible, not have it be a SDCC exclusive. Dunno what else this could be. Maybe another collab with a musician like Project Jam? (J. Balvintron)
Monster Jam 1: Probably gravedigger, though given it's "1" they might go with a different truck to start with
Cemetery: I would have guessed Gravedigger, but *see above* Honestly, this could be anything, probably something spooky. If it gets us an official hearse Transformer, I'd definitely be interested even if it's not a crossover with something I care about.

Is that why it lives in the woods and messes with campers nowadays?
In this economy, you take your fun where you can find it.
That's how they get you.
It starts with just the one, but then there's an opponent for him to face. Well, who wouldn't want that? It would allow for a more dynamic display.
But oh, the opponent is playing dirty, so now you need to bring in backup. But you can't just have it be two on one, so there goes another...
Next thing you know, it's Super Sunday and The Big Game is just background noise as you're moving an entire league's worth of figures around a giant map in your living room as you play fantasy football with them.
Nice! That's a great figure. I managed to find a little Grogu at a local discount store for $5 that fits into the bubble compartment

Lots more pics in the article.

I have no strong feelings about soccer one way or the other, so that aspect of the figure doesn't appeal to me at all, but damn if that wouldn't be a good base for a small-scale Primus remold.
Ah, finally. Actual Football.
Why on earth would you name a sport where the ball is 95% controlled with the feet Football? Clearly that name should be reserved for a sport where kicking is something done occasionally and as a last resort.
Space Marine Rugby was too long or something
It is a surprising choice. Unless he's not supposed to be Optimus, but just a different guy with a vaguely Optimus-like helmet and is in Team USA Colors that also happen to be Optimus colors.
That's why it should be Handegg.
Somehow Botbots returned
