I've avoided or just sold most of the boring G1 redos like the seekers and carbots, most of the WFC stuff I've liked has been the weirdo new bots or dudes that never get any attention like Snapdragon and Skylynx
The Bayformers had one thing going for them: the looks. The movies sold well but most Transformers fans hated their stories. It's usually the cool designs which led to them being sold. Which is why I have a few Bayformers toys in my shelf.
I'm more interested in the Aligned Continuity bots. I was bummed out that we never got a Voyager-class of Megatronus, Skylynx, or Hardhsell, and we also never got a WFC game version of Zeta Prime and Warpath.
I really enjoyed the Beast Wars Transmetals but that's hard to say in 2021. Chrome'd out metallic paint jobs are underrated on these figures.
Thew, Jobby is an annoying faggot who reminds me a lot of a young Doug Walker...... and it’s just as cringey.
Look at his Nicee review. It’s 80% skits and 20% review, remind you of anyone?
It kinda sucks that it's just a headswapped paleotrex considering transmutate's kinda got a specific weird smooth bodied hunch about her and paleotrex is just all jagged skeleton dinosaur parts. The other kingdom beast wars figures have so far been more accurate to the show models than any prior figures before them so it's kinda weird they didn't just reissue the "build a figure" transmutate from like a decade back as a single release. They've been reissuing other figures from around that timeframe over the last few years and IIRC that figure was kinda small to begin with so it'd probably fit the whole "series accurate scaling" thing the WFC/studio series figures are going for.
Well in the press release photos they did show an alternate configuration doing the iconic scream and it has her more accurate show proportions. I too always assumed she was female (big ups to Hasbro for confirming it) and in the context of the episode her being called “it” was just to show how the Maximals and the Preds viewed her, as a barley sentient abomination.
Yeah that's pretty much what my thoughts are. I kinda pointed out that she was pretty much confirmed as female to begin with which is why the wiki was kinda fucking odd to see. her proportions are somewhat similar to paleotrex but you'd think they'd make her look more robotic retooling more than just the head. As far as this figure goes it's pretty much just a botcon type of deal where they just swap out the head as opposed to some selects releases where they do a bit more retooling like spinout and cordon.
It keeps them away from ruining the good things in life. Don’t know about you but I’d rather not see TF or any of the other gay shit I like get fucked into the dirt like Star Wars or Star Trek.
If this were true, where are the rest of the fucking Pretenders?
Well they are doing the Rocket Base..... in a way. The first time they tried to pass Omega off as the Rocket Base, the next one is the final Galactic Odyssey pack that’s is literally an expansion pack for Sky Lynx and the third will likely be the inevitable Hasbro Pulse Omega Sentinel that will probably go up by the end of the year, as a “made to order” like Abominus and Volcanicus.
