Hm. This seems to be one of those where the comic shading lines didnt hit as well as they do on others, mostly because of how the mold lines break down. Still looking pretty good.

I've been wanting such a collab for some time. At first I thought it would be neat if it was a crossover with Zoids, seemed natural. But this would be amazing.

That might actually be a fun accessory pack. It'd even provide a container. (It'd even be perfect for a closed/windowless Selects box.)

Nah man. I can see how you got there, but I am reacting to two separate things separately. The combination is indeed confusing, I agree, so let's not go there. Legacy Op is small, I don't agree it was worth going for that to match this trailer, done. I agree they'd get flak if it didn't match...

They seemed to be deer analogs, yeah, bigger than either fox or rabbit analogs would be (and had antler-ish bits, and trotted/ran like deer do). Although to be fair idk if Cybertronian fox or rabbit breeds are similar in scale to ours.

Meh, someone's gonna take that up if the opportunity presents itself. At least the trailer's still someone else's problem. It's just such an unnecessary budget complication at this point. (And it seems like an easy enough thing for them to engineer and produce and sell for way more than it's...

And I HAVE the Earthrise Op and the pairing does nothing for me. Honestly i wouldn't mind if Hasbro just abandoned G1 Op trailers altogether and focused on putting the whole budget into the cab. Leave the box to the third parties to deck out.

That's a bit frustrating then. I could've done without that integration if it meant a more substantial cab Op.

Eh, I think it was a harmless enough "making a reference" joke. I don't think the original post was demanding die cast either. It's an understandable response; even before comparing the figure to Missing Link it's somewhat surprisingly short and light. I almost wrote "counterintuitively"...

I've not encountered it said aloud, but I've always pronounced it zær-on.

Man, there's just something about the lines and shapes of that Thunderclash trailer that fills me with such joy to see it. It's a riot of detail and colors and fonts and styles that just proudly declares its 90sness and I'd have it no other way. I kind of miss my old copy, but the GPS of it all...

Yeah, 3D movies going 2D for subsequent adaptations/series is not unheard of, and frees up resources that can go to design and writing. It's succeeded more often than not. I'm just hoping it gets a robust toyline that's more than the kid mainline style we've gotten for the last few years where...

Going the opposite direction would be a strong move on many fronts right now. First, it diminishes the chance of this being a prequel (if kept up), so even the people who still harp on that have less to work with. It also keeps this new characterization going (I just hope it's tempered a bit...

He's lucky they seem to have self-building roads to wherever.

They're not, iirc -- a lot of the external camera shell is extra parts, and the texturing is from the Toyhax labels. That was a great set of labels.

Well, SO truncated as to be barely alike by the end -- a one-off encounter doesn't shape Megatron the way it would if it were a system he came up in. But you're right, the parallels are there and it serves the same purpose. That makes sense. But there could have been ways to show the Matrix...

The last two live-action movies have done a lot to rekindle public interest in the brand. I'm not even sorry, but thinking that the nostalgia-driven opening of Bumblebee is a metric of quality is indicative of missing what the general public is looking for in these. "Hon, let's take the kids...

Good to see you, stick around.

Except someone else has the Sigma trademark so they have to call it Ligma.

Some things that are occurring to me upon reflection: We essentially skipped the entire gladiatorial combat bit, at least as far as it relates to Megatron's origin. That's interesting because this movie's setting is more of a fake peacetime, rather than the more transparent occupation of the...
