    Are "EX" releases exclusives? I'm not sure... *Shrug* well then I have no idea, other than "they can put whatever price they want on their products". Perhaps it's inflated to account for the people who won't be able to get the Amazon one and will flock to TT's release.

    We'll probably see them at NYCC next month. That was where they revealed the Terrorcons last year.

    I am just curious. As far as I can see no one has made a comparison video on YouTube. I know that the figurs are completely identical but normally a few people still do such reviews.

    Wait, weren't the Hasbro Siege figures scheduled to come out in the Spring of 2019? Is it possible that Takara will release their stuff first? I'm pretty sure February is still winter right?

    Hasbro said the same thing for power of the primes at nycc and wave 1 deluxes popped up at target the next month in November so I got a feeling we will see seige wave 1 around the same time so November.

    Why is Cyberverse the main line with a cartoon, and Seige isn't?

    Nowadays the kid-friendly line(s) are the ones that get cartoons on mainstream TV. Generations only ever had that horrible experiment that was Machinima, and we all know how that went... :puke2:

    Hasbro seems to be forgetting that MEDIA is the #1 way to sell toys...* For example, I've made several Legends purchases I wouldn't have otherwise just from looking at scans of the included comics.

    * Yes, I know we have live action movies, rescue bots, and RID / Cyberverse to sell their lines. I am referring to the Generations lines.

    Yes it was bullshit. Though i liked Megatronus plot twist where he actually did all those bad things in the name of LOVE, that was unexpected lol.

    My PotP wave one stuff turned was delivered on December 1st, so I reckon WfC:S wave one will likely come on December 1st too. I might book the day off work.

    We probably will.
    The fact that we got a cartoon for every Prime Wars subline seems like they might be comitted to idea of a webtoon for the generations line.

    Or the IDW reboot that’s happening about the same time Siege is coming out.

    Which is why "Nothing" is what we got with Machimima.

    Beyond that Hasbro feels like the CHUG lines can sell themselves (since they basically have been the last 12 years). But when it comes to children they regard them as stupid and just need a silly cartoon to advertise their "Happy Meal" quality Cyberverse toys.
