Tbh that sounds like a good argument for skipping a Titan for a year or two and producing two Commanders or something instead.

YES.

I can make fun of more than one thing at a time.

I'd welcome a Commander class PMOP. Motormaster/Armada OP are two takes on a cab that combines with the trailer for a super robot mode, and this can be a third. Nucleon Quest Super Ginrai for Selects or something? Then do a standalone Leader class Godbomber, just a straight up Big Weaponizer...

Whatever Hasbro makes of it, I hope it's more G1 box art super chonk proportions rather than the lanky anime model.

My fear is it'll leapfrog Commander class and be a Titan.

Yes. I'm not wild about this figure becoming the basis of sooo much torso engineering, but he's perfectly cromulent (especially the UW one with the nice, lighter yellow). I do think the main figure of AOTP Silverbolt looks great, though, and finally delivers the most satisfyingly...

I think the WFC Leader gimmick could've worked quite well for Thunderwing. Have something akin to the Generations robot mode as a base, with extra bits to turn him into the Stormbringer ultra whatever mode (and change up the altmode too). Throw a Titan Master-ish inner robot in there maybe if...

Apropos of nothing, YouTube recommended Triple Takeover the other night, so I settled in to check it out. I don't think I'd ever seen it before, not in full at least. I'm more familiar with Blitzwing from FFOD than from this, and was thrown by how thick the voice effect on Astrotrain was...

I was woefully late to G1 toys in particular, having lived in the middle of nowhere during its heyday and not having the financial capacity to explore stuff to this degree until the advent of BW. (Around that time we'd also moved to a bigger city, and I had the privilege of going to the one...

I enjoy the mold in its various forms despite it, but i wish that whole chunk didn't partsform off. Apparently it's possible to have it connected via an unfolding armature; i wish they'd done that.

I would love a standalone rerelease that looked like this. Ugh can we just open the floodgates for Euro G1 already

Still hoping Collaborative isn't done with the Universal Horror(cons), but more such collabs are welcome.

You'll know I made it when Botbots makes an absurdly-luxurious comeback.

Is that before or after you replace its parts bit by bit and confuse yourself over whether it's the same boat?

non-chucks?

Not to my knowledge. By S3 Astrotrain was very much just another mook rather than a transport, and not one widely used in general -- since there was a new triple-changer to promote, and a fairly set main Decepticon cast in Galvatron/Cyclonus/Scourge/however many Sweeps are needed to sprinkle...

It's a pretty neat look overall, but for some reason I'm not into "Bluestreak jet".

And none of the Starscreams are G2 Starscream, but there are three other G2 uses of the mold. But let's have a Sunstorm already.

Ironically, it's in being a space Uber that he isn't so easily replaced by any other Decepticon.
