The race was just cover for a heist on the other end of the capital or something.

Man, the last two posts take you from utter despair over the soulless closest-thing-to-fiction Hasbro gives to this, to such glee at the fun signature bonkersness of Takara stuff.

Vehicles always seem like such a hard sell to me even at regular retail. Even more so with a $350 price tag. Doesn't help that the early-bird bonus is the blandest one they could've gone with (an unmasked alt head should already be part of this GR's accessory complement by default). I don't...

That gradient on the face is goddamn delicious. Aside from the kickass Universe nod, and the great color scheme in general, I like how this looks less like the robot mode doing ab wheel workouts. That's been the main holdback for me with Iguanus, who is otherwise a great looking mold.

Damn, I gotta get one!

Saving some money with Reprolabels. Fortunately Artfire comes with plenty, enough to give him the gaudily-stickered look I've always associated with him and to throw Inferno a few to break up the solid blocks of color. But not too much. Just those front of shoulder panels, the silver on the...

They also recently reissued it in the new plastic-free packaging format. I'm probably going to get this because Hot Rod, but I'll not rush to it given how much these are going for now. It looks okay, but I'd still rather have any of the other options for it. (and if they were going to hew so...

Yup, there are threads that run through all the episodes with mounting development. It's not negative continuity per se, but it's also not hamstrung by those plot threads -- they're there but they're not the focus. Thus we get to have a roughly case-of-the-week format feel while still having...

I think so, and not undeservedly; however I think they've said the show and this movie are not connected, FWIW.

This has been such a breath of fresh air, although I wish the eps were a bit longer. Seeing some complaints about the slow plot development and how episodic it is, and I just shake my head at how people are conditioned to expect big plot arcs while forgetting all the complaints they had about...

I would love a good toy of that Arcee and the sidecar bike. And maybe Soundwave or Megatron. Gonna love the voice acting on this show for sure, but I may never get fully used to Handsome Squidward Optimus.

Yeah I was confused there for a bit. Thought it was the Battle Across Time packs. Wouldn't mind more like those and the Wreckers pairings. Mostly same price point, some mixed like Mirage/Grimlock. Planet vs Planet! Filch (Kingdom Airazor) vs. Skydive (Kingdom Wingfinger) Crosswise (Legacy...

Be neat to have that mold without needing to figure out how to cram those long strands in there. (sees tail) Oh.

Hooray!

Fair question. Leaked lineups notwithstanding (I've not been able to follow those), I don't think we even knew there was a second wave until the Crasher leak attached "Velocitron" to the toy, and that was confirmed alongside our first inkling of Shadowstrip existing. But given that, it seems...

Big deal, so's the present.

Super glad to finally see Detritus. Odd that Devcon is a Deluxe and not a Scourge retool, but this ought to be interesting. Hope this is RID2015 Strongarm. If this is finally a Weaponizer style Junkion like I've been asking for forever, that would be awesome. Glad to see the coneheads coming...

However else I might feel about their other offerings, Toyhax/Reprolabels has some nice stuff for the Wreckers sets. I kind of want more real estate occupied in robot mode to really match the obnoxious "cover the entire shin in weird wires" of the original, but this set for Springer is tempting...

Definitely agree.

I had to do a double take when I saw who posted this, because you're usually the one who chimes in with continuity stuff like that. That said, Side Burn blue is not a deco I want to see on this mold AHEAD of the others (I'd like at least one or two of the black redecos and a magenta, first)...
