    Siege Alpha Strike and Phantom Strike sets getting re-released?

    Reactivate is interesting to me in a UT sort of way, like a "new" design that tried to update or hew close to the original rather than a straight-up re-try of the original. Or, indeed, what we might have gotten if Classics Starscream had diverged from the G1 look a bit more. I remember being...

    Siege Alpha Strike and Phantom Strike sets getting re-released?

    I like the Reactivate design well enough, but not as a "G1 with knees". Call it being spoiled by the years of shooting for redoing the animation model and/or original toy. I'd love a redeco of it as an all new character. Or again, an opportunity for Sunstorm (reminiscent of what I've always...

    Siege Alpha Strike and Phantom Strike sets getting re-released?

    Yeah, the pattern is they milk a mold and get us to buy everyone, everyone in it... And THEN make a new and usually better mold that we then have to re-buy everyone in again. Which, fine. But give me a damn Earthrise mold Sunstorm first.

    Siege Alpha Strike and Phantom Strike sets getting re-released?

    I remember hearing about these supposedly/seemingly getting rereleased years ago (around the time preorders were being taken for Omega Supreme and Jetfire), but that may have just been a specialty store taking orders for a belated allocation. Or whatever it was never pushed through. Either way...

    Siege Alpha Strike and Phantom Strike sets getting re-released?

    That was my first thought upon hearing about this. I think Runabout might be one of the last remaining hard-to-get ones from that time they haven't found another rerelease venue for. Ah, and I guess Greenlight/Dazzlestrike.

    Post Pictures of your Transformers, Let's see 40 years worth of Transformers!

    That grinding noise is my teeth, after I just got outbid on a Treadshot (no Catgut, but still). AND a Strika. It's been 20 minutes and I'm still salty enough about it to give someone hypertension just by being in the same room.

    Orange Onyx. Guess Megatronus had dibs on black. Love that he's a centaur! (The TF One depiction seemed to give him digitigrade bipedal legs.)

    I wish there were an upgrade kit for Strongarm that gave her chonkier wheels that protruded a bit out of the wheel wells, just to give the robot mode an illusory bit of added bulk. (So far there's just some -- surprise -- gap filler and a redo of her original gun.) As it stands, I'm still...

    Post Pictures of your Transformers, Let's see 40 years worth of Transformers!

    Aside from of course wanting an all-new Rotorstorm mold to be done in these and the original colors, I now want to see T30 Sandstorm in MW Sandstorm colors. Frankly annoying that we didn't get many regular retail uses of that and Springer, the latter of which was only even used for Botcon or...

    Transformers: Age of the Primes toyline discussion || update: 2026 Computer Listings - Big Convoy, Quickstrike, Armada Sideways, and more.

    I like the Earthspark characters a lot but being one of the kid lines has hampered the toy representation of its cast. I'd like to get a Twitch, but the Deluxe seems a bit big. The Warrior class one seems to cover those bases better but the altmode is kind of off. Funny enough, Thrash is the...

    Siege Alpha Strike and Phantom Strike sets getting re-released?

    It'd be nice to have the Kingdom mold as Sideswipe and Red Alert, and the Siege mold for the eHobby guys. I do wish the Kingdom mold uses had just had opaque or dark windshields (or with silver or whatever painted onto the outside rather than the inside) so as to avoid having the more...

    Not to say anything of how old DAD will be -- hopefully with even more years to follow. Yeah, tbh this may have decided the matter FOR me.

    Siege Alpha Strike and Phantom Strike sets getting re-released?

    I'm kind of tempted. I somehow managed to get a Phantomstrike set TWICE, selling Skywarp each time (I forget what was going on, but the first time at least was to keep the Battle Masters). Maybe this is where I get one to keep. The Alphas I'm good on, although I could use a box to scan...

    Hasbro "Transformers Timelines" comic packs

    I wonder if it's down to flash settings or whatever (I've been trying to figure out how to color correct a friend's video to fix greenish blonde hair since I got home from work so my eyew are a bit fried). But the pics of Prime in this gallery seem to show a better, deeper red and blue. The...

    A redeco would admittedly be easier to talk myself into getting, as it's one more thing the original doesn't offer.

    HasLab 2025: Liokaiser

    I genuinely really liked CW Long Haul. I'll take different proportions, which can diversify the team visually and serve a character purpose, rather than "it's 2025 and we want to need combiner pieces." Fists, okay. Fists and forearms even, sure. But entire waist and upper legs as if this were...
