Is it more than I want to pay? Yeah.
Is it more than I think it's worth or am willing to pay. No.
I mean it's a complete G1 mold remake with extensive and intricate added articulation, die cast metal parts, and diaclone driver Spike. Anything sub $100 is reasonable imo.
That said, at that...
I was 8 when Transformers launched in 84 and you can bet I watched it. I remember catching a mention of it when my Dad was watching the evening news and they had a brief blurb about a new cartoon based on the robot toyline. I already knew about it at that point so I was in early. I started my...
I like the look of the retro Power Rangers and Joe games we've just seen happen.
I'd be up for something of the type for TFs.
-ZacWilliam, though ideally it'd have to be something different from a beat-em up to make the transforming matter.
Don't read it?
I mean the comedic footnote jokes, not the comic. North has done that since Squirrel Girl (if not before) it's just something he does on comedy books. Personally I find it fun. But if I didn't I can't imaging it'd be hard to just read the actual comic and skip them, at least my...
Ah memories. As a kid in the 80s I was never one to wander too far. My friends that were within walking distance all lived on my street. There was a corner store right on the far end of my street which was the only place I would walk without getting permission. There was a library, small park...
That reminds me of a decent while before Attack of the Clones released and I briefly checked the Anakin figure for a glance only for the package to say something like: "Removable hand to recreate hangar duel!"
Definitely biggest spoiler I've gotten from a toy.
-ZacWilliam, did better than...
He does not have the spines.
-ZacWilliam, they probably would have been difficult to do given how the dino's upper body transformer but yess it is still a major miss.
Warning: I have basically not watched any of Picard this is second hand.
I believe I have heard people say that the crisis Starfleet is going through at the very end of Prodigy, where Janeway is mad at the Federation/Starfleet from turning more inward away from exploration was the big disaster...
I'd be More interested if the large torso bots were new characters like the limbs. I understand why they're not, it would just be cooler if they were.
But I do like the quirky concept and all the new Energy Beasts.
-ZacWilliam, very interested to see the youtube anime.
I can't imagine why, I mean me and all my friends always thought he was one of the best joes and the coolest thing in the movie.
I mean my impression has always been that most 80s kids love that giant vampire monster.
-ZacWilliam, it's why he gets used and made way more than the rest of the...
Nemesis Enforcer rocks. I really want to be able to order him soon.
I'd kill for a V2 yellow black alley viper with the dragon-y helmet.
-ZacWilliam, I can't believe they havnt done Sci-Fi yet. He would have been day one to me. Also and forever I'll be asking for a Hydroviper.
No spoilers.
Seven episode season I burned through it fast yesterday. Not terrible, but not as good as S1 still either. Some good plots passably told, but also a couple places where the writing wasn't great, belabored an obvious point for too long or just abandoned making sense to move the...
It's not a model car, its an action figure vehicle scaled for the 6inch action figures it comes with. Like GIJoe and Star Wars get all the time? These types of toys aren't and never have been die cast.
-ZacWilliam, I mean there are die cast collectible vehicles at scales smaller than this sure...
Honestly it's a little silly but I miss the 80s Marvel Comic era of toy shilling. Where Transformers and GIJoe books had to near constantly introduce new toys while telling their story.
It was one of those challenges that forced the writer to be more creative to tell stories around it. But...
The general guess is that Gears had that head pre-planed as an existing part of the mold so it was free to be used, but the BB mold didn't have a counterpart.
-ZacWilliam, I mean the Goldbug head is closer but also not exactly the G1 head, so shrug..
Ooh, ones we want them to make:
Botanica
Show-design BM Jetstorm
Scrounge
Spanner
A School Bus transformer
Any of the Autobot Pretenders besides Metalhawk
Headmaster Nightbeat, Siren and Hosehead
Beet Papil homage
King Solon
RiD 2015 Sideswipe
Azimuth (the Kronoform watch)...
I'm sure they'll do the Thunder Hawk right off, since it's THE iconic Mask thing. The obvious counterpoint to that is the Switchblade but it's notably bigger and might end up being pretty expensive at modern toy prices.
I hope they do the Condor and Piranha myself. Both are pretty small so...
