Glad and concerned (due to costs and availability) that this capsule may be bigger than expected. Lots of neat redecos that they can do-- Dark Nitro Convoy at the top of the list (now that Excellion is done, although I'll get a second to make DVD Red Exillion), and also Production Noisemaze. And...

You get a price hike! And you get a price hike! Everyone gets a price hike! My favorite response to this so far has been someone saying this is good because it'll move toy production back to the US. Because, y'know, they didn't move production out of the US for being more expensive than elsewhere.

And boy, house=broken all right.

Yikes. Tell Blaster. The little guy ought to be housebroken by now.

Yeah, the dominos are landing and it's not pleasant.

I was okay with the TR Perceptor in general (thought the armature for the lens was neat, and loved that it was a basic working lens). But he got hit most with the Headmaster problem, not having anywhere to really store the head in altmode where the others at least had cockpits. I've since gotten...

Update: Printformers has now made this set FREE on Cults3D. https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/art/earthrise-wheeljack-improvement Now to find a printing service, maybe.

That's undeniably Riptide. IDK, maybe the retool will be the head and his weapon accessory will be shaped like the robot mode boat-kibble and plug into the back. Hope we get a Generations version later on... AND an Elita retool of THAT! This... doesn't really address Princess Viola's contention...

I think that was part of the first leak, the Perceptor set having "Bullseye" in the listing name. That made me wonder if they'd also throw in that particular Battle Master, but as it turns out that's just what Target exclusives are called now.

Same. I liked a lot of what we did get, but when the stuff was first announced I was disappointed that it wasn't more inventive or Cybertronian (drawing from the brand's decades of Cybertronian designs). And then Earthrise came along and proved that yup, Siege was all just "Earth modes but with...

I like the changes to Wheeljack (mainly the less green-seeming chest windshield), but a lot will come down to how much this ends up being. One Voyager, two Deluxes; this may be the "smallest" set yet, which would be good. When is this due out? I guess I can just skip the Legacy United Bee, and...

I don't have the energy to hate this line, which is good, because it doesn't quite merit that. I can safely let it pass me by, which is also good, because my wallet's taking enough of a pounding. Some neat ideas and fun things in there, curious enough to have me keeping tabs on it from afar.

Metrospex

I may consider that Chop Shop. It's one of the better balances of design concerns and budget I've seen of these. I wonder if those horn mandible whatevers fold down or come off as a weapon or he's just got scary hugs to go with that demon face. What's the size on these? Legion? Scout?

I would love a Snarler. And a Finback! Although I'd like for them to go back to the Legacy style of blending shell and inner robot more.

Can I just say I've missed you saying var mode

I think that first issue is why I've largely been meh on Carnivac as a Weirdwolf retool. I really grew to appreciate the POTP shells, especially when the Metalhawk retool of Trigger-happy got made. Having the Deluxe and the Pretender shell for the Titan Master was an interesting little mix...

There's been a lot of that in Legacy United and AOTP, and it's only been a good thing. If someone doesn't need it the simplest thing to do is take the breather and not buy it. No point in being "disappointed" in a rerelease. Maybe it's not FOR you, you know? Go buy one of the hundred other...

I'd be fine with G1 Headmasters not getting de-Headmastered. But I also don't have a problem with TR Headmasters getting de-Headmastered. I can see the appeal and wouldn't really begrudge their existence for others who can maximize the play value and experience. But it's not for me. If I'm...

That's too bad.
