Unbeknownst to their respective sides, the Ark and Nemesis were secretly lovers, their tale of forbidden love eventually inspiring a bard named William Shakespeare...

And the only way he could resolve the story as the two that he got the idea from, were going to outlive him, he thought, it would be best that he had them die!

Beat me to it.

Even though my "it" was just a "Now kiiiiiiiiiiiiss!"

Dammit. I'm going to buy that Legends Optimus/Bumblebee set just to get that trailer, aren't I?

Love the new Junkions. Bludgeon looks good, though he could have used a bit more remolding to differentiate himself more from Tarn.

The Air Warrior looks a lot more lavender here, which I really like.

Bludgeon looks a lot cooler than I expected, I'll gladly take him as a replacement for whenever time inevitably ruins my RotF one.

Didn't get a chance to watch all of the stream. I did see Bludgeon and Optimus though. Bludgeon looks pretty good to me and I don't have have any modern representations of him, so will probably pick that up.

Is the Bumblebee that comes with that little Optimus w/trailer set the one that was released in the Buzzworthy line? It kind of looks like it. If so, that toy's a bit of a turd, IMO. And is this just Core Optimus (again) but with a trailer, or is it an all-new toy?

I believe that's the same old BB and the same old OP, just with a new hat*

*Actually a trailer.

Okay, thanks. I've already got one Core Class Optimus. If they wanted for him to come with a trailer, they could have / should have done it from the get-go. I'm not buying another one plus a crappy Bumblebee just to get a trailer.

So either, because they released the core toy, they should never ever ever release another version with a trailer? Or because there's no way to include a trailer in a $12 toy, they just should never have done an Optimus Prime in core class until now?

If the price isn't too ridiculous, I might. I don't need Optimus or Bumblebee, but I do like that trailer quite a bit. If the price is too unreasonable, though, I'll wait to see if I can get it some other way or on sale.

EDIT: Ah, it's $40. That's too high to justify for only wanting the trailer. I suppose I'll see if they release just Prime + Trailer or something later down the road.

That Core Pack is $40, so they apparently think the trailer, roller, the med drone and the axe constitutes a $16 value.

I might wait and see if it goes on sale.

Missed the stream due to a dentist appointment. Stupid dentistry.

Anyway, PRiD Strongarm and the Junkions are definite buys as soon as they are available, same as Antagony.

I'm kind of surprised the Core Bee doesn't come with an alternate Bumper/Bumblejumper head. Still, liking that trailer for Optimus. Pretty much what I've been wanting for years!

I'm not quite sure I understand your post. No, I'm not suggesting that they never, ever, ever release another Core Class Prime in the history of ever that has a trailer. And sure, if they had done this from the beginning, it probably would have been more like 20-or-so bucks, as opposed to $12.

If they had, I would have paid the $40.

It's puzzling, because the detailing on the figure makes it seem like the mold was purpose-built as a Bumper figure, yet neither release has a Bumper head. Since they are adding extra heads with some of these exclusive releases, it seems like not including a head in this set is a missed opportunity for added value.
