  1. Transformers: Age of the Primes toyline discussion || update: Wave 1 Box Art

    Probably. And it wouldn’t be the first time! Eh, I’d still peg him closer to Core, if not a bit smaller given some of the oddities of depth and position. I fully expect Liege Maximo to be a leader class figure. Hasbro knows he’s probably one of the biggest “deals”, besides Alpha Trion, of...
  2. Transformers: Age of the Primes toyline discussion || update: Wave 1 Box Art

    It was a bit surprising to me simply because we just got the mold in the Toxitron set which omitted him. Given general “cost concerns”, it would NOT have surprised me if Hasbro had opted not to include Wheelie. But let’s be honest here: G2 Grimlock is being done because he’s a popular...
  3. Transformers: Age of the Primes toyline discussion || update: Wave 1 Box Art

    Because I’m on a tablet and can’t like directly to the images…In this TFW2005 post, there are images from the panel reveal, including “on hand” images of the new figures. CS 53, 54, 55, 59 and 60 are all images from a display table showing the new figures. From Grimlock and Wasp, we have...
  4. Transformers: Age of the Primes toyline discussion || update: Wave 1 Box Art

    I have no problem with the design of the robot or vehicle mode. What I found baffling was the strict adherence to replicating play features of the original toy (the “meh” base mode, the mini Hot Rod, the micro trailer) which was EXPLICITLY designed to interact with stuff that the current...
  5. Transformers: Age of the Primes toyline discussion || update: Wave 1 Box Art

    In fairness, his beast mode may have more black elements that we aren’t seeing with that piece of art. Not sure if reported in this thread, but preorders go up next Tuesday, 12/10. Worth remembering that Star Convoy and Silverbolt may ship a little later than the rest of wave 1. My full...
  6. Transformers: Age of the Primes toyline discussion || update: Wave 1 Box Art

    It’s a replication of a gimmick the original 1991 toy had. Several toys came with little “battle trailers” that interacted with the Battlestar bases (aka, the big guys). That’s kind of why I’m baffled by the slavish devotion to the original toy, since so much of that just isn’t present in the...
  7. Transformers: Age of the Primes toyline discussion || update: Wave 1 Box Art

    There are comparison shots of Star Convoy next to G2 Grimlock. Convoy is about double the height of Grimlock. General comments I’ve read from recent interviews seems to indicate Hasbro might be scaling their lines back a hair. We’ve already seen that in Legacy with Hasbro moving to more...

    Giggity! Also, art has leaked for wave 2's Heatwave https://news.tfw2005.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/CC_011.jpg Also a scan of part of Star Convoy's instruction sheet, indicating some out of box assembly and a space for a second trailer, possibly indicating future Battlestars, I...
  10. Transformers: Age of the Primes toyline discussion || update: Wave 1 Box Art

    Seeing actual figures, it confirms my earlier suspicion/theory that the core "gimmick" for Age of the Primes seems to be the ability to "forge your own relic". Each of the Primes we've seen (even Star Convoy's dildo-saber) seem to break down into parts for you to customize. It also looks like...
  11. Hero Mashers Returns! (Hasbro Mixmashers)

    More stock images, including Optimus Primal. Info is probably getting rolled out to retailers for a rollout early next spring https://tformers.com/transformers-mixmashers-customizable-action-figures-official-images-and-details-/54124/news.html
  12. New Authentics product -- Mini Bot Racers, masks, Cyber Battlers

    And because I don't know where else to put these and don't know if many will care any more about these than Authentics, in general, here are Hydropods. Hydropods are a new Gacha/Surprise product that Hasbro is introducing to its IP range. In addition to Transformers, there will reportedly be...
  13. New Authentics product -- Mini Bot Racers, masks, Cyber Battlers

    A new Authentics toy...and it's NOT one the same half dozen characters? BLASPHEMY! Chefatron got his hands on a new Bravo (aka, the big ones) Class Authentic Mirage figure. Sporting an F1 sports car mode, the figure transforms into our first look of his Evergreen robot design. Also notable is...
  14. Transformers: Age of the Primes toyline discussion || update: Wave 1 Box Art

    Is that a Micromaster Hot Rod with Star Optimus Prime? If so... 1. that surprises me, Hasbro's been a bit tight on secondary figure budgets. 2. Why aren't we getting more Micromaster stuff?! Dust off those WfC Trilogy boys and give Hot Rod some micro-buddies!

    Cybertron Con, over in China. Hasbro will probably post some of the material in an official capacity over here, soon.
  19. A Long Time Ago In a Galaxy Far, Far Away.... - Star Wars General Discussion

    It’s OUT! First two episodes! It’s “Space Goonies” in all the positive ways. It’s very “Amblin” in ways you just don’t see in most media these days. Accessible to kids and families, but it doesn’t talk down to either group. Most of my reservations come from how Disney has been handling its...
  20. President Biden pardons Hunter Biden

    Legal Eagle posted a response. It's one of those things that I see his points...but it's also well past the point, IMO, where such concerns are that pressing. The comments section MASSIVELY (and with a good deal of respect, mind you) in disagreement with his position. Most of the comments...
