    Astro Magnum/Galactic Man is not Diaclone.

    I'm with you. I have no idea how much cooler exclusives they can make. People gon' bitch, I guess (?).

    Me, too.

    Eh...

    What are they gonna make Powerdashers from?
    Nightbird? They've already done that in CHUG, and I couldn't give two shits about a robotic female ninja "for the benefit of mankind"
    Refraktor IS "G1". Oh, you mean microman/Microchange...?
    Hot Shot? No. I'm 100% glad that the current Hasbro team couldn't give a damn about the 'Unicron Trilogy' series.

    Look; I'm not buying this, but after 35+ years, Hasbro or Takara are acknowledging the history of one the prescient toy molds. I wish it were the MP, but since I wouldn't buy it, but I just think this is the coolest idea Hasbro has had in a long time.

    The yellow drill guy is gonna be made from brunt

    Takara did nightbird not hasbro

    Refraktor 3 pack is g1 toy deco not toon, both are g1

    Hot shot actually looks pretty dang good and the existence of both him and galaxy upgrade prime kind of goes against them “not giving a damn”

    when My shockwave broke as a kid, the hasbro purple one was no longer sold in stores. Then I found Shackwave at a Radio Shack and bought him as my replacement, he was Shockwave upgraded in my head cannon. So I have good memories of this guy. Cool hasbro did this. Wish they would have done Combiner wars Ultra Magnus as Delta magnus, this way ( if they do it in Seige ) my Ultra magnus and my delta magnus could have been different molds altogether.

    I’m not sure I want to spring another $50+ for this, as cool as it looks.

    Yeah. People are gonna bitch it seems.
    Maybe you should read what I wrote later on. Or you can also conveniently ignore that and make a pointless snide comment about it.
    Anyway, I think we both know they can, have done, and continue to make cooler exclusives. But enjoy your Diaclone Shockwave ;)

    CC0855F0-589F-4E98-8CD7-32772A3A3A1D.jpeg I’d like Powerdasher Drill to be repainted from Takara Nosecone. And Powerdasher Car would be a perfect red Mirage as a double homage. Any deluxe jet mold would work as Powerdasher Jet.

    What's your beef, man?

    Seriously; I corrected you. If that you rubbed you this raw, you'd better get to your safe space.

    What part of your quoted post did I misread/misconstrue?

    You clearly didn't read MY post, because I wrote that I won't be buying this or even a MP version.

    I guess I'll find out if this wrinkles your panties:

    This is very cool, like Ghostbusters Prime and Ectotron. Not for me, but I like some of the team's thinking and some things they're doing.

    I personally can't wait to see it. Obviously by my tag and picture, I love the Unicron Trilogy and am happy to see the things I grew up with even acknowledged in the overwhelming sea of G1
