The only remolding was the head, right?

 

Yes

 

Warden said it at NYCC to attendees. I saw him say it like 20 minutes into a video of an event on the floor of the show.

 

The thing about the grey hands ins because they're gang molding the trailer with the inner parts of Prime's legs as well as the hands. That's why they can't be blue. To change the color of the hands would require making the trailer blue, as well. Granted, I don't understand why they have to mold the hands with the trailer, but I'm not a production engineer, so.

 

My guess is it’s about sprue sizes and costs.

I BET if they did a multipack release with an all blue Deluxe Roller, you could shift the hands and leg panels over to a Roller sprue.

Maybe that’s the answer. Release a deluxe silver Roller (animation accurate) and do a multipack with a largely blue Roller with Optimus’ hands and leg panels shifted to a sprue dedicated for Roller.

 

Finally got my mirage and impactor to go along with my barricade. Wave 4 is officially out at target and Walmart so happy hunting.

 

That's a rumor that got started by Salter reviewers mad at him for his scoops and getting figures before them. No one has actual proof that he stole anything, Kevin Liu was the same way before it was made clear that he had endorsement from Hasbro etc. To clarify, I dont know how TonTon acquires his figures so early but there is no proof of thievery and it's not logical, if a YT reviewer were stealing official Hasbro products from the factory on a consistent basis for months, now over a year, do you really think Hasbro wouldn't notice?

 

My Rainmakers set arrived today. I still don't have Red Wing (because Canada), but...

Taste the rainbow!​

​

I wish I had thought to buy a bag of Skittles today so I could have a prop for these pics  

 

Is Barricade an exclusive?

 

I don't think so. For whatever TFWiki counts he's listed as part of the standard Wave 4 release with Impactor and Mirage.

 

Had some fun giving Barricade a super mode:

 

Opinion please. I love Hound's mould but not too enticed on getting this Hot Shot.

 

I helped a friend @TFU_INFO on Twitter cover the NYCC Press Event for Transformers. We attended an unboxing and received Astrotrain along with the other Siege Wave 5 figures. I'll probably be posting more soon here but you can find the rest on Twitter here: Steel City Bots Podcast (@steelcitybots) | Twitter

 

Mostly Siege, anyway!

 

For those on the fence and didn’t want to buy Shockwave at full price, he’s priced at $28.99, but only in cart on Target.com.

I’ve had him sitting in my cart for months and finally pulled the trigger, along with two Micromasters sets and two Battlemasters sets to take advantage of the $10 of $50 promo. With all five, came out to around $43.

 

I tried that. Mine couldn't quite take the extra weight.



Barricade looks really good cruising Trypticon's streets, looking for trouble.  



Of course, when he finds it, it might be a bit more than he can handle...



Which is why he usually picks on the little guys.



"ARE YOU AUTOBOT SCOUT 217?! WHERE IS THE ALLSPARK?!"

 

Anyone know when single and rung or coming out? And how come they aren’t for pre-order anywhere like HP, Amazon and places like that?

 

Sometime next Year

 

Mighty fine line up! Great though he is, RTS Jazz sticks out like a sore thumb. Seeing that makes me want a WfC Jazz even more.

"Why you ungrateful, snivelling, little organism! We risked our lives to save your misbegotten town and..."
"MIRAGE! Control yourself!"
Mirage hates peasants.
