    Ah yes, the police car. One of the most important construction vehicles there is.

    Since the DPCI codes are the same, all the guy would need to do is return the siege Prime using the receipt from Earthrise Prime.

    That's diabolical. And fairly good, actually. I mean, who's gonna compare the figure to the back of the package? Who has time for that?

    Not assholery- OPPORTUNITY!

    Even if you already have one... boom! Instant cash return! I mean, ~$30 for a now ~$50 figure? HECK YEAH!

    You know what really sucks about that image? The voyager class Fallen fits in the modern Leader Class box perfectly.

    Damn downscaling.

    between re-colors and repeat characters, this will not just continue, but happen more and more.

    With how similar they are to non-fan retail workers... the whole "oh last year? No THIS is G1" approach to releases is almost promoting Swappers.
    Quarantine and this crap... how many more nails does the Brick and Mortar coffin need?

    Man, that has me hoping we get a new Generations (at least deluxe) Waspinator, so he can be recolored into "Buzz Kill" for how they just mow through bee hives. That's how my yellow Botcon Waruder stands in already.

    This reissue Bumblebee I saw today is so MOC my eyes couldn't visually process the information I was seeing.

    I decided to pass on it though. I think I'll sleep soundly with my decision.
