Cuz Hoist and Impactor are EVEN BIGGER than Ironhide and Spinister, so by necessity they need even more open space if they have roughly the same mass.

Honestly, I think HasTak might be waiting to figure out if they want to try and tackle proper Pretenders again in some way before they do a CHUG Bludgeon.

 

Ironworks is a ton of fun.

 

I cant wait for these. Hope they get shown at the next con.

Deadlock, Octane, Detrius and Lockdown will be must haves.

 

For all we know, there might be an infinite number of Reflectors in this "continuity," like in Sunbow. Possibly a whole bunch of Brunts too, given that they're inspired by the IDW centurion droids. If that is the case, then the Autobot's numbers suddenly aren't looking so good.

 

I wouldn't mind a new Blitzwing who's par to Springer in scale and quality. But like Astrotrain, I already have two previous versions of Blitzwing. So if HasTak slaps another pointless $20 backpack on another Voyager class figure, then they can keep it.

I really don't like the way that the Leader class line has been marketed. This upcoming Prime with the Trailer would've been cool IF they had done it with the SIEGE version in the first place. I spent an hour wiping most of the weathering (bird poop) off of the Wave 1 OP so I'm not buying another Optimus any time soon.

 

Yeah I know, I want to see pics before I commit to ordering 2.

 

cons utilize troop builders more than the bots do. you can actually bump the number slightly considering the 46 cons should actually be a minimum 48. reason being i counted spectro, spyglass, viewfinder and only 1 refraktor when at least 3 refraktors should be counted technically. then you have sunbow where there would occasionally be many more reflectors. also the narrative and the toyline rarely match up. hasbro isnt going to release a line where the majority of figures are badguys, we should honestly be pretty happy with a nearly 50% ratio

 

Thats very true

 

They're going to be awesome! Here's hoping we see those guys at Toy Fair. 

 

I hope so. Its obvious Detrius is going to be a repaint of hound just with a roof. As long as they are not exclusives cause that would majorly suck. Given the first technical merc was a selects figure (nightbird)

 

Please tell me they're going to do Frenzy / Buzzsaw in Earthrise. Would be a shame to not finish off Soundwave's crew.

Of course, a Blaster and co. would be nice too.

 

I'd rather have small deluxes that look complete like Cliffjumper than big deluxes full of holes, like Hoist and Impactor. They should either make them smaller or find a way to hide the hollowness. To me all those holes just aren't acceptable for my collection.

 

There's always more good guys because they are more popular.

 

Yeah I get that im just saying the narrative is a blatant lie lol

 

Except the narrative uses troop builders like reflector and seekers. There’s also insecticons that can clone themselves, sweeps, vehicons etc etc. just because we don’t yet have toys of them doesn’t mean they don’t exist within the narrative

 

Considering that the ratio is that the Autobots are mostly deluxes and Decepticons are mostly voyagers which the seekers as example are much more powerful and capable due to flight to be worth the equivalent of at least two, three, maybe even four Autobots, as also, the seekers are made for battle at a much higher level, it does make the Decepticons on top.

It's like comparing civilians with hunting rifles in regular cars against army soldiers and military equipment.

 

I\'d love to see this mold be turned into a EarthRise Hubcap 

 

Bruh you're a psychopath lol

 

Yes please

 

Who would have thought a £20/$20 would be so divisive.

I spend more each day on my starbucks and lunch (not hyperbole) although that is a separate issue.
