    I was about to make an apologist joke, but that guy's seriously upset isn't he?

    Glad someone else likes that new Cosmos as much as I do. My own Cosmos enthusiasm aside, I think it's the best figure Hasbro's done at that size class.


    And I'm also in the special club with TJ.




    (and I don't regret it at all)

    I doubt it, but I really hope the new TF series is basically Prime version of More Than Meets the Eye. From the way Prime ended, basically all of Cybertron's populace hasn't clued into the fact that the planet is functional again.

    So BB & Crew could go out & find everyone who's left, having odd adventures on the way. And occasionally run into the odd Decepticons who doesn't know the war is over. Maybe a Galvatron faction could arise, and we could face off against them.

    ...

    But that's just a pipe dream.

    So Vangelus, since you have both Hasbro Swerve and Trashtalk the people will likely want to know which one is TEH BESTEST EVAR and which one SUXORS!

    I agree with what you are about to say in that both have their merits but I'm curious where your personal preference lays.

    IMHO TrashTalk blows Hasbro's version of Swerve completely to tiny little pieces. In fact I'd go so far as to throw Hasbro's Swerve to the dog as a chew toy... if I didn't feel like it would be a complete waste of money.

    Like, legit, it feels silly to compare them given the enormous price disparity. I do like Trashtalk more, but I'd hope that would be the case when he's around triple the cost of Generations Swerve.

    Generations Swerve is hardly a terrible route to go if you don't want to drop the money on the Maketoys version though. If he had either a waist or neck rotation I'd call him a you-should-purchase-ASAP, alongside the you-should-purchase-ASAP Cosmos.
