This customizer made a real one all the way back in 2015 for BotCon's custom contest. Won first place. https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/tmnt-metalhead-bulkhead.1065349/

And now... "Man of Iron", the most difficult one to fit. Unlike the other three, this one occupies its own little bubble, with all scenes set in Stansham, England and no sign or even mention of the Ark, and with a very limited cast of Autobots (Optimus, Jazz, Mirage, Trailbreaker, and...

Another long one that had to be split into two posts. Recently, I've been trying to do what most might consider to be an impossibility. That is, to find actual workable placements (in relation to the US issues) for the events of the first four Marvel UK G1 comic stories: "Man of Iron", "The...

Ugh, we don't need another Galvatron. Legacy Galvatron is plenty fine, and there are still boat-loads of him clogging all the shelves and simply refuse to go away.

Why? Wouldn't it make sense to make him in-scale with the other combiners? Fictionally-speaking, he's not supposed to be bigger than his peers. Heck, even his original toy was the same height as the Scramble City-type combiners. It was only Predaking who towered over them all, and he wasn't...

There was this really good figure in the interim between those two:

By that logic, nearly every single toy ever released in Classics, Universe 2008, and Generations is not a toy of the legacy characters that those toys are meant to represent in new body-forms. Classics Optimus isn't G1 Optimus, Classics Megatron isn't G1 Megatron, Universe Dinobot isn't Beast...

If you're trying to say that the very first and ONLY toy of the RID Scourge character that I was able to get as a child (a toy representing one of my favorite cartoon characters from back then, no less, even if it was in a toy-only upgraded body-form like so many other TF toys that had been...

I'll say. I'm sorry I even asked. 😱

This is really impressive. A full 3D-printed movie-accurate version of the Ninja Falcon Megazord based directly on its unique CGI design from MMPR: The Movie.

And for me back then, that Deluxe toy was the ONLY option I had for a Scourge toy. The other two weren't available to me. It was either get that Deluxe, or don't own Scourge at all.

He did get another toy.

They said the G2 Laser Optimus Prime was perfect, perfect, and couldn't possibly be improved upon...

The running theory on that is that the "2" was a holdover from the Deluxe class Supercharge Mode Autobot Brothers' toys being internally labeled with a "2" at the end of their names in store computers ("Side Burn 2", "X-Brawn 2" etc.), and that the Basic class toy was colored based more on the...

I've been theorizing about something from the RID 2001 toyline lately. As we all know, the Hasbro line was greatly expanded to have way more toys than those released in the original Car Robots line. While most of these extra releases were mere redecos of preexisting molds from G1, G2, Beast...

Huzzah! No claw machines necessary! Online listings for these plush toys have been found! EDIT: Doggonit! We commonfolk can't actually buy from this site, as they only sell to those who own and operate the entertainment machines that these toys are found in.

Yeah, the Core class Dinobots are Legacy toys. This is SS86.

And some specialty stores like GameStop did carry him last year, for however brief that time was.

I've seen Snarl once, at a GameStop, and never ever again since (and I didn't have the money for him at the time, so I missed out). That was last summer/autumn. Meanwhile, retail stores are still filled to the brim with leftover Sludges and Coronation Starscreams that simpy won't go away.
