Nightwing's dating history was one of the things relegated to the tie-in comic from way back when to play with, so it's interesting to see it get a nod here. Loved the Danger/Haley's callback. Also, Aqualad's been out for a month. There's been so much it's still tricky to piece together a...

Hope it ends up being a mild case, and that nothing long-term is left behind. That FU is well-deserved I'm sure.

That is really well done and also not something I can display with anything else. But wow.

Indeed. Was bummed about the many riveted bits when it came time to paint, but really appreciated the overall look of the design. He's got that Animated Blurr vibe of looking incredibly fast while standing still.

Thanks for that! Added to the front page article.

Twin Twist (Titan Master Headmaster not named) up on Amazon.com.

To coincide with the pandemic-delayed Top Gun film (I still can't believe they didn't just put this out in the interim), TF Collaborative Maverick is getting a Walmart exclusive rerelease with updated packaging and a new accessory.

Pretty much in the same boat there. The originals are still solid, but I am very curious as to the redecos/retools for Bulkhead and Arcee. Knock Out, the original was not very good, but the new one isn't really grabbing me all that much more, so I'll wait to decide when the toy hits shelves...

I did have something typed up, but it was pretty incoherent and just repeated a lot of what was said, so... I'll just say I'm happy to have lived through both eras, both design ethos are valid and BOTH have notable hits and misses, and I feel a bit spoiled to be getting stuff that's so strongly...

Saving a lot of money from this batch, which will probably go to Velocitron stuff. Hope that's more readily available. All I want from this is Leadfoot and Masterdominus, and Spindle (so if anyone wants just the Impactor, lmk). The rest look nice enough but I can comfortably pass on them. Maybe...

Throwback to an old custom, inspired by a recent reveal. Making the decals was fun. Funny enough, Leadfoot was actually the second custom I whipped up in the process. I had on hand a Classics Mirage lower body and a mostly-yellow upper body from Universe Drag Strip; I'd used their other...

Amazon.com preorder.

Already got a Legends Arcee, but this is very tempting, if only for having legs that aren't so weirdly jointed.

Oh dang, that is cool. More of these alt head pack-ins should be a thing. Better than fireblast effects.

SG Blaster and Eject (Rewind apparently), from In Demand Toys

There's grails, and then there's stuff you just never think you'll ever own so you don't bother. But then you stumble onto them for an unbelievable price and it's just... Yoink. No gun, no flame trail, no problem.

Galvatron is a good take, seemingly basically the same sort of inside-out-unfolding as the AOE one but with a better backpack. I wish the chest sculpt was a bit more raised/3D. Also the arms are a bit weedy, but perhaps that's just the angle. Both are likely constrained due to the...

It's the infodump phase where masterminds and motives get revealed, after a ton of episodes of dragging out the mystery (which in turn needs other things to also be stretched). It says something when multiple scenes pass, including backstory dump slideshows (which would have made great episodes...

Well, I don't really troop-build, so I would've just gotten the one. Plus it might work out better saleswise than "buy these nobodies". Of course, said Autobot could be something like the NEST Bumblebee, who can be sold AS a named character but double as an Autobot-aligned troop. Ratchet in...

Yeah, it's very refreshing.
