Transformers: Age of the Primes toyline discussion || update: Wreck N Doom Collection - Spinister VS Topspin
- Thread starter TriBlurr
- Start date
The anniversary year for Beast Wars would be the perfect time to do the beast Prime.
On the other hand, it would also be the perfect time to finally get to Rampage, Depth Charge, Quickstrike, and Dinobot 2 to finally finish updating the entire cast of Beast Wars.

Yeah, a book or a pen or the key are thematically sound for Alpha Trion but when it comes to the relic building gimmick, I don’t think they’ll translate well. I guess you could make a key part of the bigger weapon but breaking a book into smaller pieces just makes a bunch of smaller rectangles.

It could be a stock or an ammo cartridge for a big gun. Knowledge is firepower.
I mean, they've previously integrated a pizza box into a weapon, so a book is not out of the question...
Heinrad had a book and a bottle of sake that combine into a gun. It's not unprecedented.
Although the testicles would be unexpected on a modern toy.

I'll be shocked if Nexus Prime doesn't come with the Enigma of Combination, so non-weapon artifacts are still on the table IMO.
Yeah but the Enigma is usually depicted as being spiky. You can still take someone's eye out.
Didn't stop this from getting made:
Alternately, the Enigma had another form that it could become in Machinima's Combiner Wars cartoon, a more orb-shaped form:
The last thing I want is a spiky enem*gets dragged out of thread by lesbian ninjas*
Revenge of the Fallen Devastator: *bong*
If Prima is precedent, he probably will have a small version of it that can attach to a bigger weapon.
For that matter, Star Convoy comes with a Zone orb.
Or, as I like to affectionately refer to it as (starting now), the "Zorb".
Anyway, the Enigma should have a sort of one-step auto-changer feature that lets you change the arrangement of the points so that it becomes a giant shuriken that Nexus Prime can throw at people.
Then they and anyone around them instantly turn into Combiners.
Okay, maybe not the last part. But I think the first one is pretty solid.
This is Generations, No fun allowed!
And when the combiners form, their hands MUST be blue...no, no, wait, wrong fan rage...
I ended up getting Legacy Vector Prime (among other figures) for Christmas and, while him being a Jhiaxus retool is still disappointing. I actually ended up liking him more than I thought I would. So yeah, my Thirteen Collection has (technically) started. I am however, already preordering the 3p DNA upgrade kit to beef him up a bit with bigger wings, armour and sword.
The new Trypticon may allow me to get him this time. I mean, so long as Hasbro having fixed his leg ratchets.

they should rerelease brunt with the new purple as well.
Make some noise! Seriously, Hasbro DOES listen and try to make good on things, like they did with Cosmos. Fans just have to make some organized noise about a new version of Brunt to go with Trypticon.
I finally figured out why (besides pure nostalgia) I actually dug the Retro G1 Bumblebee- The colors and the lack of eye detail evoke the Pretender version to me. While I had Listen and Fun Cliffjumper and Goldbug, the Pretender was my first "real" Bumblebee.
My mind might be reaching these days...I'm also attracted to the MOTUxTMNT 2025 Raphael because the overall look evokes my memories of the Jim Lee TMNT Raphael so maybe my brain is just reaching to justify these purchases?
