    what are those stickers? I see dirt for the car, heart eyes, puddles with a hole in them, and a weird snake thing made from the stars that you can slap on him for some reason.

    I dont think they are heart eyes, but rather hearts for the I Autobot NY License plate. That way it can be I heart NY.

    I figured the hearts were a cheat for the license plate but I'm glad I'm not the only one going "WTF are those other ones?"

    Cosmic Rust for the brown ones? Not a clue on the blue/star thing...Morphobot infection spots before they became tentacles? I'm really reaching into my G1 memory here to even remotely find an idea of what the others are.

    I think the blue stickers are the spores from the episode where cosmos brings back some kind of virus or something. Does that seem right?

    Yeah that would be those Morphobot tentacles I think. What's the white ones with a dot in them?....I feel like I'm back in biology class looking at stuff through a microscope.

    "Ummm....is it an Amoeba?"

    "NO it's a Paramecium and if you didn't read comics in class, you would have known the answer. I will see you after class for study hall!"

    "...crap."

    So, my apologies if this is old news in terms of deserving notice, but I just realized he’s a partsformer. A Masterpiece partsformer? I thought that was bordering on sacrilegious for the MP line. And in part what made the line’s engineering so admirable. Then again, I haven’t been paying close attention to the most recent figures and their transformation specifics...

    Regarding the stickers, @Sam and @HolyCulture identified them a while back, confirming the thoughts on them above:

    @W-P38: He’s not a parts-former, I’m not sure where you got that idea.

    Not normally one to nitpick photos but... in those newly front paged stock images the forearms and the backpack are mistransformed? And there's some sort of photoshop artifact left over behind Spike or something?

    I see I'm not alone :lol

    Stop useless pointless complaining it’s plastic toy you don’t like Display picture s toy companies put out go there work then no one dies if stupid plastic toy is mistransformed it is not crime if I got dollar for every comment I saw that g1 is better ty is mistransformed I be trillionair are you not going to see museum paintings are not perfect will you not go car show if car have all its doors closed not open for you see inside no one gets fired no Unicron will show up for mistransformed toy i like transformers you know what to people say g1 is better it’s not somethings they don’t like in movies g1 did it first I can name countless flaws g1 cartoon have.

    I will name one transformers are stormtroopers you be lucky if you see someone get hit by laser fire all transformers can only make hit contacts by punching and kicking and crashing into stuff unless you watch animated movie which is different will you get fired for display picture of toy that is mistransformed no that is petty less move on you want to complain about something tedious that’s not important complain how joker movie is getting a lot of bad press before it gets released press and critics are saying joker movie may cause real life violence purge is more violent purge, saw, leather face movies came out before joker no bad press about those movies may cause real violence

    What in the name of Primus are you saying? :lol  People are going to jokingly criticize professional promotional images for soon to be released products that display significant mistransformations.

    Then again, it wouldn't be a masterpiece Bumblebee release without a mistransformed Hasbro image, right? :lol

    Critiquing poor marketing is fine, it doesn't impact the quality of product but the goal of its marketing should be to highlight the product
