I wouldn't mind a new Ruination toy, so long as its planned repaint is Bruticus :)

I've already got a perfectly serviceable Chromia, but I would still buy that one. Looks really cool.

I was trying to recall the other day which old 3p version had a leg transformation similar to the SS86 one (I want to say that it was maybe iGear, but I can't be bothered to check). But yeah, it's clever engineering, it just doesn't translate to a particularly pleasant-looking robot mode.

I don't know that I would describe it as perfect. It looks good, but Earthrise Wheeljack is/was a good figure already. I feel like if the design team had created the rounded windshield from the beginning, there would still have been complaints (most likely that his upper body and chest look...

Well sure, but that's not really a fair comparison, is it? ;)

Powermaster Prime would be a really good contender. I'd add: -JG1 Overlord. HasLab would also be a good fit, but there's a lot that they could do at the Commander pricepoint. -G1 Roadbuster. Make him big, chonky, armed to the teeth, fun to transform, and poseable as hell. -G1 Onslaught...

What I wish is that Fire Convoy could have been released as a standalone, Commander-Class figure. At $90, I would take the plunge. I just don't care enough about RID Ultra Magnus, Omega Prime, or Bluebolts to drop $250 on the one figure in the set that appeals to me.

Looks pretty darn cool. I don't think that I'm sold on the set yet, as I really only like Fire Convoy. I was always pretty "meh" on Ultra Magnus, and less enamored of the combined mode. Happy for those that want this though.

Just wait until the upcoming Bacteriamasters are released! In all seriousness though, I think that those are some good choices. I came in here to sing my praises for Armada Ramjet, and I agree that the way he integrates with Tidal Wave was really cool, and probably should have been a...

Yeah, that Brawn was disappointing to me. The top half of robot mode looks good, but the lower body needed to be left in the oven a while longer. I know that his legs look that way because of transformation. However, they're ugly and choppy, and those floaty little feet just look weird.

That's cool, and I hope that the retailer doesn't need to step in. I've been in contact with consumer care, so I guess we'll see what comes of it. My desired outcome is to be recompensated for some of the $90 spent on my original Magnus. However, I am also excited to (hopefully) experience...

Well, for what it's worth, SS86 Magnus is back in stock on Pulse: https://hasbropulse.com/collections/back-in-stock/products/transformers-studio-series-commander-the-transformers-the-movie-86-21-ultra-magnus I went ahead and ordered another one and am hoping that I can "return" the crappy...

Clearly, all the clues point to Beast Machines Nightscream being the next HasLab.

Yes, I hope that your conciliatory Prowl and Ironhide 2-pack will be on its way to you soon :)

Pardon my ignorance, but where - and what - are these "clues?"

It's gonna be Overlord. Please let it be Overlord...

Really makes you feel valued, doesn't it? Nice to know that they stand behind their products :rolleyes:

Congrats on that, Tec. I've got some of the little dudes in the pic (DA-93 Robot Base Machine Set and DA-96 Dia Fighter). Both are wildly fun and good values, IMO.

Yeah, it sucks pretty hard. I would have been more satisfied even if they had just issued a partial refund or store credit. But instead, I've got a broken Magnus and this raggedy 2-pack.

So the "replacement" for my screwed up SS86 Magnus arrived today. True to my prediction, it is something that I do not want and will have to get rid of: Other than fitting with the SS86 theme, I'm not so sure that this lines up financially with what I spent on Magnus. But as mentioned in a...
