Thank you for the offer! I was at a graduation and afk for the morning. We have a fair number of Lego vendors at shows around here, so chances are good I can find one eventually. Thanks again!

If the rumor is true, hopefully the writers have enough time to wrap up major threads before the end of the second season. And hopefully the show remains readily available on streaming or, better yet, DVD/BluRay and doesn't get buried due to tax writeoff or other such nonsense. It's a good...

Wasn't the Masterpiece line announced to be folding into the MPG series? If the Missing Link figures sell well (and continue to do so), I could see them continuing the line to fill the space left by Masterpiece. (Similar complexity/parts count, but without the need to be combiners as well) That...

From the Action Toys run, I wish I'd picked up Steam Robo and Buggy Robo, but they were getting pretty fiddly, and I was trying to budget better, so I didn't go completionist on them. My personal wants for a Machine Robo Missing Link series would be Baron Von Joy, Turbo, and Flip-Top for the...

I would be tempted by Missing Link-style Machine Robo figures...

My Grandma has had a couple UTIs within the last couple years, and I know they kind of messed with her mental state until they were successfully treated. Hopefully the medical staff are monitoring everything well. Sounds like it's been a rough journey for both of you.

So, I doubt it would be an SS86 release, but I'm realizing I would be more interested in SS86 Bee if it was Red Bee. Maybe could be a Selects or Legacy release?

FWIW, I understand the desire to keep the discussions of separate toylines separate, but when it comes to the SS86 figures, they kind of only exist in Studio Series to make room for figures that aren't 85-86 G1 dudes in the Legacy line. Does it really hurt to cross-post those reveals when they...

Quoted for truth. I have a friend who used to work the toy department at a Walmart, and she had all kinds of stories about Hot Wheels collectors... Full disclosure, if this were in the $20-30 range, with the trailer ($10-15 without), I would absolutely buy a figure in this scale to go with my...

Pretty sure I can still find a Gobot Road Ranger second-hand for $5-10 that has die-cast, is the same scale, AND has a trailer in alt-mode. For that matter, Core Optimus is around $10 for just the cab and on sale on Pulse for $30 with trailer and a bonus Bumblebee. How they think $80 is a...

The Legends releases were pretty sweet, for sure, but I just couldn't swing the prices for all the Targetmasters. Got Legends Blurr because Blurr, and Legends Haywire w/Doublecross for obvious reasons, but the Decepticons were sadly just not in my budget. Still pretty happy with the TR/Siege...

To be fair, distribution on that price point kind of sucked. At least locally, a lot of stores that had carried the Titanmasters and Prime Masters from TR and PotP dropped the Battlemaster price point when they did resets. If I remember correctly, I only found them in about a third of the...

If I get a Thundertron, it will be the capsule version. Just depends on how lucky I get with this one; I've had decent luck finding the Velocitron and Toxitron ones, but some of our nearby Walmarts have only just put out the Toxitron guys with the recent reset. The other issue is deciding...

RE: Brawn: As far as Unicron goes, if he hadn't been in the movie, the Nazis would have gotten the amulet from Marion, found the Ark in the Well of Souls, taken it to their secret island, and Belloq, in his hubris, would have opened it and all the Nazis would have died anyway. So, clearly...

The retail head isn't meant to evoke Alpha Trion, is it? Somewhere in my foggy brain, I thought an Alpha Trizer was rumored for the future (and/or TF:One Alpha Trion, really)

They were very successful updates, I thought, plus I love that they all shared sort of a base form but modified for each character; sort of like the Conehead trio, but more visually distinct. Minor gripe: I do wish the Targetmaster characters in TR had come with their Targetmaster partners (the...

I think that's the coolest thing about CW's redeco-of-an-Aerialbot Blast Off, that the altmode actually makes more sense with the team. It's the only CW Combaticon I own (though I wish I had bought the G2 set, but I was trying to dial back on the collecting at the time...) That said, a combiner...

I do think it odd that there's never been a Star Wars CMF wave. There were just recently 2 CMF series of Marvel figures , so I would think it's a possibility, at the very least. But, as Axaday pointed out, they would still have to fit within the manufacturing and release schedules already...

I'm not disagreeing with your overall point, because I agree, Lego has to make money to stay in business. The 2 counterpoints I would like to make are: 1) I know that I am likely wrong (minifig completionists are an interesting group, after all), but I would hope no collector is buying a $160...

Yes? tldr: Lego has all kinds of fans with all kinds of budgets, and attaching figures of specific desired characters to high-priced sets kind of ignores those fans on the lower end of the budget spectrum.
