    I finally received Grimlock and Kup yesterday so now I have all the SS86 bots and Cyclonus. Great line and I will buy more but Kup has a lot of parts that keep popping off. They go back on, but are falling off way too easily. And I'm not talking about the parts that are supposed to come off like his limbs. :) 

    Blurr is also a pain to transform because of the way the tabs work. And Wheelie really needs some knees.

    But other than that, great job TT/Hasbro! Keep them coming!

    I'm assuming that Daniel's exo suit will not transform like Wheelie. I can see that causing a lot of complaints. Wheelie and Daniel probably should have been separate core class releases that transform. I most likely would have bought them.

    Daniels exosuit is probably just a reuse of spikes exosuit from the buzzworthy bumblebee figure

    Grimlock arrived via Hasbro Pulse to my surprise today. He really is good. SS86 line is my all time favorite line. Hope it continues.

    It really is a fantastic line. Best thing Hasbro has mass produced in years and the only reason the SS series will remain relevant and in demand.

    I feel like you may be a bit delusional there. SS was doing fine before SS 86 and they still have more movie bots planned over G1 bots.

    I’m not a fan of the Bay movies myself, but I love that they exist due to all the money they make for the Transformers brand... The rest of the lines wouldn’t be what they were if it weren’t for the Bayverse, and when they do well Transformers as a whole prospers.

    Besides, I’m just glad people are enjoying an Optimus & Megatron, we all like different things and one part of the fandom doesn’t have to starve so others can get fed. There’s plenty room at the table for everyone.

    I’m loving this line & they can put a lot of figs in this line that won’t make it in kingdom ie Brawn blaster & so on! I never thought I would buy a SS fig but I’m happy for them now!

    the bay fans can keep getting their figs too as long as they keep making G1/toon looking ones for us !

    Atleast hasbro is making figs for most fans! We have G1/toon in the 86 /Kingdom line we have beast wars /bay & whatever comes next! I just hope hasbro can give us all the 80s line up to finish off our collections! Then they can work on the unicorn Trilogy !

    That all depends on the sales figures mein freund! If one particular genre doesn't move enough units............

    About Grimlock, he is indeed quite and amazing evolution from the MP version. Price wise, you get the most bang for the buck! Like that he's got ratcheted shoulders (seems like the GPS still hasn't been solved as we get a painted gold chest. No big and, finally we get his Galaxial rocket launcher:thumb . Now where can I find a sword.............

    If there's any problems I got with the unit it, an errant scotch tape stuck on the diorama's floor. Really, there's an inch wide tape stuck on the diorama's floor!:mad: 

    Wheelie is great too, again, wished his legs were poseable, but that would have broken the bank already.

    From April to next week. Only one left of my SS-86 is Scourge. Amazon's delivery dates are all over the place (or should I blame Hasbro? Takara Tomy or C19? )
