    What was the original version of the Generations Skullgrin? I had picked it up at some point, it is bound to be in storage somewhere, but I honestly can't remember who it was..was a good figure though.

    The figure was called Darkmount. But it was obviously supposed to be Straxus.

    This new version also hasn\'t got a mouth.  The original version was odd, as the mouth was molded into the body, with the top of the head being able to turn, effectively twisting the upper and lower jaws.

    I’m a huge fan of the Pretenders (and yes the band too) and I love that Hasbro/Takara are using this as a way to give homage to the originals. That being said I wish the Prime Masters ( the robot inside) where a little more detailed with some paint, they seem a little cheap. But I still love them. I hope one day Hasbro will do a Monstructor.

    Im sure this has been said hundreds of times, but wouldnt it have been nice to have voyagers of the Primes other than these key chains

    These "key chains" are the highlight of the line for me. Potato Po-taw-to.

    For what it is worth, the original Pretenders shells can wield the Decoy Suit weapons, because they are 5mm pegs.
