Transformers x Hot Wheels images leaked!

I'm sure it was a budget thing, just ran out of paint apps. Honestly, I'd have preferred the missiles on the sides of the trailer, but that would probably stick out too far for some track sets.

Of all the possible missing paint applications, this one is probably the easiest to do by hand after the fact.

It's getting to the point where I'm thinking of taking up painting as a hobby just so i can touch up the lacking paint apps in modern toys.

Mattel is clearly leaning more toy than toon.

Don't they know that the proper toon / toy ratio for new versions of Transformers is a slightly different, constantly-shifting and unguessable number that happens to conform to my exact tastes and faltering memories?

The only real issue I have is that these are the "Track Fleet" series, which is not as widely available as the "Super Rigs" that are carried at almost every Walmart and Target around. Otherwise, they're kind of cool little bits of merch!

I did find Optimus at my local Target, which is a mid-sized one that doesn't get a lot of the stuff that the larger ones do.

I don't know if it would have helped them shake that... look.

But can it hold other hot wheel cars?

The original poster at TFW says the designer told him "no."

It is hard to see how you could make that work given the wheelbase is a standard HW size.

 

[Donocropolis]

i guess there are a couple of different lines of Hot Wheels semis:

Mega Rigs can hold cars, but are too wide for tracks.

Track Fleet can fit on tracks, but not hold cars.

Magnus and Prime came out in the Track Fleet line, so no dice.

Why is it we can get a booby trap that actually catches boobies, but not a car carrier that actually carries cars?

Spoiler

Okay, I know a couple can, but they're starting to feel like outliers.

 

[CoffeeHorse]

They can always reveal the Mega Rigs version after you buy this one.
