It's pretty obviously going to be the only way to get Buzzsaw. I could see the other two tapes being Earth mode Ravage and Laserbeak as otherwise nobody who missed the Netflix toy will have a way to get those.
I can't really see who else that shoulder pad could be, and they pretty much confirmed on the stream that it was a relatively obscure character.
There was also a rumour that it might be a Flame/Xaaron two pack.
Springer looks better than the Siege toy, but that missile and his fun are so crazily oversized for no reason. Maybe that plastic could have been used to fix his helecopter mode a bit. Both of the swords are flat out bad sculpts too.
Bumblebee has a nice transformation and robot mode but that...
I suspect Glavy will just be more blue too, but I'd be in to that, he's not supposed to be as purple as the Kingdom release.
In an ideal world he'd be a bit more slim and have longer legs, but I doubt we are getting a new mould.
I'm a little surprised (genuinely).
I thought the licensed Heat Toys version of this would preclude them licensing Hasbro to make a similar (although probably cheaper) product.
That might be true but it's unlikely that an animated feature will be predicted to have nearly the box office and therefore merch shifts that a live action one will by retailers.
Again, we'll see, but I think people in this thread people are papering over the cracks a little bit because of one...
The movie line shipped - that's a one off (or at least occassional factor yoy. If that accounts for 40% of sales then the line being up 25% isn't actually all that good and there would be a signifcant drop next year. We'll just have to see.
The concept of what this line is seems a bit wooly to me.
Are they supposed to be a celebration of the original comic for the G1 anniversary, or is IDW in scope? Will they all get original little accessories or just some? It all just seems a bit thrown together.
