Any indication of why they didn't just make that jet mode piece standard to suit both head sculpts?

Funny you should mention TFWiki and Allspark... https://www.allspark.com/home/threads/where-can-i-find-the-translation-for-a-tale-of-the-pretenders-manga.986/ There's a link to an archive of those Allspark scanlations in there (thanks, past Sabrblade) that works.

For me, it was scrolling through the pics and seeing that Optimus Primal face artwork.

His name IS SkullCRUNCHER. Which is clearly not referring to his head, but his donk.

Be pretty funny if they did have a middle piece/extender mold and they only occasionally did them in odd-numbered multipacks. Like Scorponok would be a block with sculpted-on legs and full claws out to the sides, that you could use to create a long truck with scorpion claws.

Yeah I think they occasionally do one at a time (I got the TR Windblade once, since I already had the figure).

Come to think of it, I do recall watching a handful of season 2 and a few from season 3 (a few years back) and finding it decent to interesting light entertainment. And I do remember the first or so of the parade episodes and finding the device clever. But I'm apprehensive of (what summaries...

I feel a light pang of concern at how this will play out, as very little in that entire press release seems appealing to me. This is almost certainly because I'm obviously not the target audience, and partly informed by how it's partly couched in promotionese. I wouldn't be surprised if this...

Or the RID2015 dynamic of animalistic Decepticons (with some having full-on beast modes). A stretch, I guess. I just really want that line back and those great designs to get another shot.

These are legs. It'd be either HK or MK. JK, IDK how SF controls these days

He might as well. This midlife crisis is taking a while.

Ben Yee's review has several pics with the wings folded up like that. Not a bad look. Interesting. I still want to see a Slipstream from the Earthrise Starscream mold, maybe with some retooled limb parts and such. (But FFS give me a Sunstorm FIRST). But for some reason the Legends redeco...

Also, am I missing a function those holes in Hot Rod's spoiler serve, or is it just more of the usual monkey's-paw that Hot Rod updates get?

It's true. Kingdom Rodimus came in at just the perfect time for me to fulfill that prophecy.

Between Hydro Pods and Swapticons, I'm reminded of that mid 2010s stretch when a bunch of side lines (Bot Shots, those Battle Masters rock em sock em type things, and Hero Mashers -- which is also back) littered the landscape. And, huh. Here we are also mid-decade, a decade later. I'd trade...

Mmm, gimme.

Well, when you're a jet, you're a jet all the way. Even if you're a helicopter. Or a shuttle.

You're right about that, but I'd agree with that choice on Hasbro's part. I'd actually not mind it as Brawn (and for more than the Scioli TF/GIJoe reference), but even that name's not going to be more likely than those two.

Not that i don't appreciate these Jazz reissues (the first US release was right at the top of Studio Series, and the most recent one was in a multipack). But is exclusivity or whatever still affecting a "peacefully piloting the shuttle, not knowing he was about to die" Prowl reissue?

I'm sure there's also a fair handful of official Transformers weapons and accessories that have a hole and a peg configured like that, but it's the proportions/distance that gets tricky. Plus, having to wade through hundreds of the things in the ol' accessory box to find that specific combo...
