I'm loving this. Predaking IX (and counting)

Huh? What conversation did this come out of? I know you're responding to people who aren't here, but I don't know what they said. As for G1-centrism, this isn't that different a mix from the Kingdom lineup. Two normal G1 guys, one G1 guy with a Sieged up alt mode, one G2 guy, and two Prime...

I saw Bulkhead first, and my immediate mental response was something like "Excuse me?" and I wanted to speak to the manager of Hasbro. Skids looks weirdly like a Cyberverse toy, but decently executed enough within parameters that don't seem to apply to the rest of the line. So when the reveals...

What's to not understand. He goes to space! To prevent rocket fall down!

So depressingly true 😭

Counterpoint: The show also already hated them for it in 1995. Or at least by 1997. 😓

Yeah but Misato is unparalleled

I know you know this and are just talking, but like Hatsune Miku, everyone wants a cross-promotion with Evangelion. Including toothpaste manufacturers.

Gotcha. That is a different rubber, though, since it's clear. I think it's actually a kind of PVC?

T30 Rattrap and Rhinox are seven years old now and I don't see any change in their rubber.

That's very much where I'm at. Hazbin has that Disney movie tightness of concept and HB is the kind of concept that results from creating the characters to fit an existing lore and that happens to exist in the same universe. Hazbin has a toothier satirical edge where HB has a bit of an Adult...

Same here, wow. I had the thought that I'd like to see this scene again, but I thought it probably wasn't as snappy as I remembered and expected it would let me down. I was completely wrong, it's probably my favorite Amber scene in the thread. 😁 Gosh. Amber and Static played off of each other so...

Caboo got her Rodimus in and it's weird. Seeing it in person, the robot is pretty damn impressive, with a transformation that feels a bit like Studio Series and benefits from having a Leader part count in a Voyager toy (pity he's not either of those price points but meh) and the painted orange...

Games that play like FF7 never appealed to me in the first place at any age, but they clearly have a following and people will clearly continue making them. Fundamentally I need a game to be fun to drive and menus aren't, and that's purely a matter of preference. I don't play TCGs either...

I mean, it's repackaging plain and simple. It's not a type of anything. Same as the weird bukkake Prime and Megatron that got little display islands at Walmart. But the ones under the Kingdom label were intended specifically to give those figures another shot in the distribution coin toss that...

I don't really think that's been a problem with WFC though? Like, most characters who don't share molds in G1 don't share molds in Earthrise, and Kingdom's given every BW show character their own mold. (And I mean, I know you don't mean Combiner Wars literally, the line where you couldn't...

He is damn fine. It's a different feel than Earthrise because he's so cartoon focused, which means slightly smaller parts and a step with the torso twist and doors that isn't very mashable, but it's a clean transformation and a damn fine robot and car with a spot-on sculpt that plays the movie...

We've also had Beast Wars now and we're getting more AEC guys right? I feel like the G1 doesn't contain the scope of the problem. Like, for me, they're applying the same 90° template to everything, they're actively disallowed from doing anything original, etc. And they're so weirdly open about...

Lopunny I'm not taking notes

This is extremely appealing. Like, nothing would feel quite as nostalgic as jumping back into Amber, and the change in setting and background would be enough to make it interesting, buuuut also a differently gendered descendant of Amber with Sourdough Bitter would give me a lot more space to...
