    Transformers Collaborative (Transformers X Star Wars: The Mandalorian)

    If this had been the Volvo Op I might have been more interested (shame it doesn't make as much sense to use the Laser Op trailer, which is a bit cooler), but at least it's a new color scheme on this iteration.

    Transformers Collaborative (Transformers X Star Wars: The Mandalorian)

    If this doesn't work out, I'd like to make the same offer (i.e. I just need Bullseye).

    Request to identify accessories!

    Huh, that's absolutely right. I could swear I've seen that specific circle with two wires leading from it. But I've never had that Optimus. Those blue ones might be the tips of a launcher or something? Or something designed to look like one. Anyway

    Request to identify accessories!

    It looks so frustratingly familiar. The tube bit at the non-notched end seems like it's held in place by nubs on either side, which I agree suggests this is like a gap cover or hatch cover or something. The notch may also be for a fingernail or thin tool to open the cover.

    Post Pictures of your Transformers, Let's see 40 years worth of Transformers!

    I typically just scan them and toss them these days. Before I took to throwing them out quickly, I would up accumulating quite a bunch -- fortunately, a local friend was willing to take them off my hands (just had to arrange delivery). Sometimes things work out and I open something with a...

    Is that wing from PCC Skyburst?

    Request to identify accessories!

    I keep thinking it might be a PART of an accessory rather than its own thing becuase that flat panel at the end seems like it plugs into something. But it's the wrong shape for the TFTM 2007 Camaro's blade weapon.

    Request to identify accessories!

    THAT'S it. For some reason I never thought "talon", I kept thinking insect leg or mandible or THUMB, partly because of the size of the socket. Like the Side Swipe weapon, it's just such a particular piece (uncommon color, shape, and size). I kept wanting to go all Swerve and do a Thumb Quest but...

    Blue missiles - BW Ultra Optimus Primal?

    Request to identify accessories!

    The clear orange dagger/pistol is likely from the Armada Side Swipe mold or one of the redecos (Treadshot/Oil Slick).

    Forty Years of Transformers Hot Takes

    Oh, here's one. Not sure how hot this take is since we've had time to get used to either, but I miss the days when TFs were packaged in vehicle mode.

    Forty Years of Transformers Hot Takes

    I agree with all of this. But those complaints were typically accompanied by "yeah so Starscream's ride transforms, Starscream doesn't", followed by a return to the original "logic", so this isn't lost on them, just dismissed because of course it was. Never bought into it myself. As a kid the...

    Forty Years of Transformers Hot Takes

    As a main line, non-transforming Transformers are an easy pass. But I've never understood the "durr why put TRANSFORMERS on them when they don't transform", like seriously, mac, do you expect your Transformers branded underoos to have a robot mode? Separate, ancillary product lines with...

    Studio Series 86 Appreciation Thread

    Assuming this still sees a 2-pack release with the same sort of accessory pack-in as Ironhide/Prowl, I'm just gonna want the blast effects. I managed to get the Ironhide/Prowl pack for well below retail here -- blast effects, an opaque-plastic Prowl I could frankencustom up with Siege and...

    When is the last time we got an original character redeco from a G1 character?

    This has been true since Generation 1 started. In any event, again, the question for me is whether or not a comic appearance counts as "exists in any way", or if "exists in any way" has to be in toy form since the title question does specify "redeco". Because there are plenty of "virtual...

    Yeah, that sounds good. Not into the Lockdown as is, but an Axer sounds dope.

    When is the last time we got an original character redeco from a G1 character?

    I'm not invested in quibbling about this because it's not my topic to begin with, but if I were counting that as a viable option on the same footing as the two I mentioned, I would have mentioned it. Although sure, real-world reveal announcements and the like can also fall under the question...
