I hinted at it when I mentioned John Warden wanting another shot at Roadbuster when I said "y'all are in luck" instead of "we're in luck" because...Oh and I missed it: are we not liking T30 Roadbuster now?
I kinda like T30 Roadbuster. Whirl is more of a mixed bag because they tried to shove two versions of the character design onto one figure but Roadbuster came out a-ok.
His biggest determinant is that his stickers are, as is the case with most Hasbro offerings, subpar. Otherwise though? I enjoy him a lot. He's chonky and ratchety, two quick ways to my heart.
Funnily enough I love that toy too and prefer it to the Siege Commander.At the time, T30/LG Jetfire felt like a decent enough place holder for an updated toy.
Sunbow Skyfire just does nothing for me whereas T30 Jetfire has the Macross Valkyrie stylings I want out of Jetfire.
I agree with this, I just think it depends on what they use as their base.Not saying he needs to be a Commander, but I feel like the current team would be capable of cranking out a nice version that homages the original.
People have mentioned wanting an IDW Roadbuster and I'm not sure I'm into that. Roadbuster should be a bigger guy- I think Voyager or a Voyager sized Leader with accessories is perfect- but I don't need him towering over everyone else.
I'd like something that skews closer to the original toy's general aesthetic, maybe the
Marvel Comics character model for inspiration. I think the current team could do good things there.
An IDW take though? No thanks, I don't need my Roadbuster that huge.
