nice!

Oh I know, I know! It's leader class Wheelie!

Now that you know, post pics of you setting the box on fire  

 

Or your brain blocked out the horror of seeing Wheelie in real life to prevent trauma.

But on serious note (rare for me I know)
If it's the Magnus box there should be like energon cubes and I thought it came with two micro/battle master guys.

 

Seriously were you shorted on the box?

 

Check if there was a small strip of cloth in the box, it might be making things difficult to see.

 

Just got POTP Nemesis Pax's left leg!

My POTP Nemesis Pax/Prime came with two right legs... I now have the correct configuration after trading with a fellow board member that had two left legs!

NEEDED: POTP Nemesis Pax Left Leg <---Only took 2.5 years.   


Before... double rights legs  


After... a left and a right!  


Feels good, man!  

 

So apparently they're packed 2 hot rods and 1 scourge to a case, and Walmart isn't currently selling them at the $26.86 price point of their other Voyagers (or more specifically, their Voyager tags, since many stores are out of stock of nearly all non cyberverse TFs);

...but man the likeness of the characters we're getting from this 86 studio series line!!


 

 

Fresh in from Amazon.

 

Found these guys at Target and could'nt leave them behind

 

Of course not! That wouldn't be right!

I found Cyclonus at Walmart on Thursday! Just amazing!

 

Congrats, Cyclonus is literally a smaller Masterpiece. He might be the crowning achievement of War for Cybertron so far ( excluding Unicron of course)

I don't have Arcee, but Ratchet is fantastic! Enjoy!

 

Hype. I can’t wait to open them

 

Love the packaging

 

Got a pair of lucky finds recently with Studio Series Grimlock and Kingdom Blackarachnia.

It's weird, I already have Masterpieces of both these figures, and in both cases, the Masterpieces are very, VERY similar to these guys. And in both cases... I think I actually prefer these new ones to the old MPs.

Kinda wish that Grimlock came with his sword, as opposed to that weird Wheelie figure (which is going in the accessory bin and probably never coming out again), but I do understand WHY they included him. How else is Wheelie gonna get in the Studio Series?

 

He could have gotten in the SS with his own toy, for those who would want him. As an un-posable accessory "statue", he's pretty useless unless you want that obligatory "best buds" photo with Grimlock. I agree with you, the sword would be more useful, but I don't recall Grimlock ever having a sword in the '86 film, and channeling that film's vibe is really the whole point of the SS86 line. I don't honestly remember him using it in the cartoon series, either. I think maybe the sword was only an element of the toy and comic story.

As for Wheelie, I absolutely despise him as a character (probably like 99% of people reading this), but I've seen some toys of him that are pretty cool. Generations was a great repaint of a nice sculpt, TR was a pretty decent representation, and XTB's Ollie is in my opinion a great figure and essentially the unofficial "MP Wheelie".

 

He used the sword when defending the castle in Madman’s Paradise. It might have had other uses but that’s the only one I remember

 

Purchased the Amazon Barricade/Punch-Counterpunch 2-pack. I mainly got it for Barricade, but I’m not sure about keeping P-CP. I owned the original POTP release, which is aesthetically better, but sold it since it didn’t really wow me at the time. Not sure what I’ll do with this one when it arrives. If there’s enough demand to warrant a hypothetical Nonnef-engineered Nightbeat conversion kit, then I may consider keeping it in the long run.
