I mean, official word from Roche is that it was never intended to fit into any preexisting continuity, but if you squint, it could be the final story of any of them.
I was wondering that myself. I feel like the original toy had a darker green plastic that, while still clearly (ha!) translucent, was less obviously so? But it is very likely just the camera/lighting in those pics.
I did the cancel-my-Nov-Pulse-Jhiaxus-and-order-on-Amazon-with-free-shipping thing on Sunday, and he arrived yesterday. Holy crud, I still can't believe this is a toy that actually exists. He's just so great.
The BM show was gorgeous and mostly still holds up visually. The worst part about it now is in being able to binge episodes, seeing how much of the first season is just repetitive running.
The toyline is still a thing of brilliance that gave us some of the most absolutely-bonkers-out-there...
I always thought TM2 Meggy's animation model just looked like TM1 Megs wearing red footy pajamas, so I've always preferred the more bestial face of the toy.
A Generations take on Depth Charge would be cool to see; it would be nice to have an action-figurey toy that doesn't have a foot of tail/gimmick sticking out his back.
Yeah, that Ratchet is an insta-buy, considering Marvel and IDW Ratchets are my favorite TF characters, I just wish they'd give us a red-helmet version at some point. (I justified snagging SS Bumblebee Ratchet the other day for the same reason--fantastic toy!)
I think a lot of IDW1's success came about precisely because it ran for so long. Yes, Roberts and Barber are absolute legends, but their work (and Barber's in particular) was so rich often because it had so much backstory to draw upon (regardless of said backstory's quality!) Heck, even in...
IDW2 really suffered in comparison to IDW1, which is pretty much the crown jewel of TF fiction at this point (and I don't see how it can be topped, given the current state of tie-in comics and TV.)
Haven't read the finale yet (Amazon never told me it was ready!) but I would be surprised if nothing from Ruckley's run got picked up by later writers. Heck, Rubble already showed up in an MLP crossover, I think. "Going immersant" probably has the best chance of gaining traction in the...
I've had this on my Fire unread for almost a week now, and keep forgetting it even exists. It's a shame the series wasn't allowed to run a few more years, I feel like it was just getting to that point where a so-so comic starts to get a feel for what it wants to actually be. It could have been...
Finally got to open mine last night (it arrived last week and has been taunting me the whole time.) Spent about 2 hours or so on it, got to the halfway-point, bagwise: torso and legs. Satisfyingly big and hefty so far!
