    The angled side and character art sure are "appealing to the optics," just like what Marvel Legends does. But the more eco-conscious part of my brain is griping on how the box could be more compact to reduce plastic usage. Are they hiding a Build a Figure part down there in that corner?

    Because the tcg have nothing to do with the toys, if they added a tcg with that specific character and utilizing the same art style than that would be an OK idea, but addin in unrelated TCG cards or even blind pack just seems pathetic, like a ploy to push their card game which many are projecting to be an eventual failure. Collector cards are way better and harken back to the originals

    it's not about the toys it's about adding something to help launch to card game. Further more tech spec cards have been long since gone from toys now I wouldn't mind if they went either route but from a money stand point it would make more sense to get as much TCG merch out as they could so it saturates the TCG market cause they are competing with games like MTG, YuGiOh, Pokemon and others who have been in TCG markets for years.

    Those are all better card games based on general reception and word of mouth, we had tech specs as recently as Titans Returns, CW and POTP had collector cards etc. Shoving that TCG down the fans throats won't help it sell, it needs to actually be a good game firstly

    Definitely in for Sideswipe and Ironhide. The others are no biggie for me in deluxe scale. Micromasters will be mine though

    So Siege Deluxes are now in Marvel Legends-Style boxes. They've also pretty much reached the same price point as well. Except for the fact that you get a lot more for your money buying a Transformers Siege Deluxe than you do in a Marvel Legends figure.

    I would hope it would be noneff out of those 3. His prices are very reasonable. Shockwaves lab seems to be focused on MP figures. And the problem with renderforms weapons is he uses resin which is very heavy. The larger guns always weigh too much and make the arm fall down. Not what I would want in a fusion cannon. An ideal fusion cannon would be cast in pieces so it could be hollow on the inside and light weight. And most importantly, no lights or sounds please.
