Thanks! I had to take advantage of a weekend when the wife and kid were away so I could invade the living room. I tried to get a lot of fun little groupings in there, and also representations of as many eras as I could. Still left lots out, though. It does remind me which figures need updates...

The current Core class figures work really well with older playsets. From left to right, we have a Renegade Thruster, Trypticon, Thruster, Diarobo gas station base, Guardian Command Center, Machine Robo Battle Base, Command Center, Omega Supreme, Androform Andro-base, and Machine Robo Rescue...

Burger-Bulldozer is pretty out there, too... I'm not sure they're meant to be ghosts? I think Machine Robo Rescue had some non-toy villains that seemed to exist just to cause chaos and destruction (and possibly even Confusion and Delay!), and the baddie kind of has a similar look? Also, the...

A little late to the party, but if there are any fans of the Hanna Barbera Godzilla series, the official Godzilla channel on YouTube has been posting episodes in 3 parts. They have all/almost all of season 1 up, and they are starting on season 2. The last part of the first episode, Calico...

So these just showed up on BBTS: UNITROBORN Supposedly part of the Machine Robo universe. There are some...interesting combinations, to say the least. I'll be interested to get my hands on a couple and see what they are like.

Well, Iron Man was sort of taken...

It's like this: I have a slightly better chance of getting all my favorite Transformers in the Legends/Core scale to interact with my Gobot collection than getting all my favorite Gobots in Deluxe scale to go with my Transformer collection. If Hasbro would really fill the Core scale with a...

Truth, but, in all fairness, some of Hasbro's reveals have happened after the figures hit retail anyway...

May as well throw in some classic Gobots, too, if you have them!

I thought Hugo was one of those authors who got paid by the word? Like, he was intentionally wordy because he got paid more that way?

Well, when the book came out, the idea that dinosaurs could be resurrected by cloning seemed pretty cutting-edge. Although GI Joe's cartoon ep, Primordial Plot, got there first. My favorite part of the book didn't make it to the movie, though: The system they were using to keep track of the...

LANDMINE!

IDK, by 2024, it might be a $25 premium... :unsure: ....I'll still have to pay it...

I mean, yes and no? In this particular instance, the previous Hiss Megatron robot is pretty clearly a G1/G1-adjacent version. It's not outside the realm of reasonable assumption that the Autobot counterpart ought to be a similar close fit. I personally don't think the AWE Striker is a good fit...

Okay, we've now got 3 versions of the newest Blurr mold, and not one comes with his Targetmaster partner? Rip-off! Come on, Hasbro, #releasetheHaywirecut!

I do get the novelty of Transformers that can actually hold Joe figure riders, and I'm glad for the fans that want them, but, for me, that feature really compromises the transformer part. I know I've said it before, but I would absolutely be down for a Joe/TF crossover that just had the Joe...

Thinking of existing GI Joe vehicles, Hound should not be the AWE Striker, he should be the VAMP. It would be a much better match to Hound's usual altmodes. The AWE Striker would be a best fit for Beachcomber, but if they had to shoehorn it on a 'popular' character, Bumblebee is a better choice...

I thought Marvin the Martian worked okay, and I got a couple of him, but Looney Tunes was not Lego's best example of minifigures capturing their likenesses. The Muppets really do work better. Also, can I just say, I really miss Lego Dimensions! A Muppet level pack would have ruled that game!

Is that base mode for the Ark official, or is it a fan mode? Now I really need to get my Gobot and Machine Robo bases out for a photo op...

Isn't the Leader class listing a separate release from the mask? The mask is pretty cool, for sure, but not a Studio Series release, surely?
