    Also I think my comment was grammatically correct, which is weird.

    Elbows are a little odd but looks better than blue hands. Yeah the more I look at the elbows I don't like it. Just keep the blue off the arms then I guess? Haha.

    Friendly reminder that Takara stock photos are less indicative of the final product than actual in-hand images.

    I’m gonna laugh if this thing ships and after all the back and forth on blue parts, we wind up getting Diaclone Powered Convoy.

    At this point, I’ll appreciate whatever comes in the mail and probably buy an eventual redeco of some kind.

    I’m just gonna treat this thing like it’s a LootCrate.

    I don't give a rat's ass what color Prime's hands are, I'm going to buy him anyway. Why? Because fun things are fun.

    Things can still change from Takara’s photography. Remember when Red Alert had a black lightbar?

    Even though EarthRise does not start till Spring 2020, I wish I could find Wheeljack early before Christmas.

    Had a thought - you know how Hasbro keeps saying that Cliffjumper is not a pre-mold of Bumblebee? It occurred to me how weird that is. Why say that? Why not be more vague and say “we have no plans for that at this time?” Or, more expansively, why NOT have plans for it? It’s a good mold. It would work. No one would complain. Easy money. Why paint yourself into a corner like that?

    Look at this guy. He’s beautiful:

    But what if they AREN’T in a corner. What if they have a unique mold Bumblebee on the way. Could this be the hint that Cybertron mode Bumblebee could still be coming?

    That would be awesome...

    I hope and wish you're right, but I feel like 'Cliff isn't a pre-mold' is legalese for 'shared engineering'.

    The weird thing to me is how CJ’s arms look more like BB than CJ.

    That said, both of you could be right.

    The car parts could all be remolded as BB’s Cybertronian mode with the accessories replaced with wings. They could share arm and leg engineering.
