Eh…I personally think some are being more forgiving to the Core deluxe figures because they are, aesthetically, more aligned with Studio Series and Generations and aren’t trying to replicate a stylized look like Prime, RiD2, Cyberverse and Earthspark. As far as the Core vs Studio Series thing…I...

Which is probably why the OGL revision (especially the part about claiming creative works) reminded me Blizzard’s own EULA shenanigans with Warcraft 3 Reforged. In that revised agreement, for those unfamiliar, Blizzard basically said “anything you make in our editor, we got dibs on”. Likely to...

I’m still hoping for a Transformers Collaborative Owlbear. I’m also surprised we haven’t seen more reveals of the toy line. Hasbro stated that the dragon they showed last year with the Golden Archives first reveal was part of a kids line, but it is getting rather close to the film’s release...

Over the past week or so, wave 2 of the Target Special Teams have started to hit retail (Bazooka, Recondo, Cobra Trooper), and today I just got the notification for my preorder on the Tiger Force guys shipping soon from Hasbro Pulse. In addition, during an unboxing stream for the HasLab...

I think TMNT, at its peak, was higher and lasted longer than Transformers. Transformers pretty much peaked at 1986 with the remainder of its run riding that momentum to its conclusion in 1990 (with season 5 being a glorified repackage of older episodes). TMNT was basically THE top action toy...

Just about everything I had on order for March shipped by this point, between Voyager waves 3 and 4. I would NOT be surprised if Voyager wave 5 is that soon so that Hasbro can focus on the movie line for the spring and summer.

Since this thread got bumped... Online retailers are getting a rerun of the Retro box Headmasters. If you missed them a couple years ago, now's a good chance to get them for decent prices.

Oh, oh that's nice... I really like what I see here. Not just in terms of "it's a nice looking new beast Transformer", but the engineering is damn near perfect to be applied to a new iteration of Beast Machines Cheetor as well. The comparison to the Core Deluxe is more complicated though. I...

More likely it was "this stuff is already tooled and it's just easier and cheaper to reuse the existing molds than modify them for this sort of release".

Otherwise known as “New Member tries to break Nevermore’s Sanity”

It, frankly, wouldn’t surprise me. I think it’s something that probably flies under the radar or the NARA just isn’t nearly as thorough as they SHOULD be when it comes to document retrieval. The problem is that Trump flashed a giant light on it because of his ego. From what I’ve read, Biden’s...

Because 20 years ago, Titan Books had the license to reprint the Marvel-published comics while Dreamwave published their own Trade Paperbacks. By the time IDW took over, the comic licenses were sorted out so IDW could reprint anything Hasbro owned. They decided NOT to reprint the Generation 2...

Reassure you of what? Hasbro probably knew that was a possibility, but likely didn’t care because people were just voting in a poll about Transformers.

*Blows dust off thread*. Not sure where else to put this considering all the fuss around the Flash feature film, but Spinmasters is moving forward with the toy line due in March. No official reveals or anything, but leaks have obviously occurred. 12” figures have been shown, including two...

Just a curiosity I’ve seen, I’m wondering if others are as well: I’ve been to three Walmarts and a Target. ALL have clearanced out the Netflix kids line (one Walmart had PILES of the Talon Fighter). This is a bit surprising to me since Mattel is just launching a Castle Greyskull play set and...

Silver Optimus has posted more information on the toyline, mostly from his native country. But it does help “fill in the blanks” on some details. He’s also reporting information regarding a “Beast mode Optimus PRIME”. Humorously, Hasbro seems to have a Core Deluxe (aka, not Studio Series)...

Except for the fact they have partnership with Paramount to promote the multimillion dollar movie due in a couple months. Regardless of the mess Wizards of the Coast is making right now, the toy guys still have cartoon and movie toys to try and sell to fans.

Still, the vote was just a couple years (YMMV) from the release of Combiner Wars Ultra Magnus (which was pretty good), a year after Takara’s version (which was also pretty good), and Ultra Magnus was heavily featured in Transformers Prime, and got a number of good toys there. I’ll stand with...

So…you’re saying it already WAS the perfect conclusion to Generation 2? :p
