    @Seth Sunthay 's post about TF Shine was liked by @Jtprime17 and he did post this a month ago:
    So we could be looking at a retool from this Starscream.

    Is Nightbeat still happening? I’ve heard conflicting rumors about that figure. Some say it’s unknown, some say it’ll be in the line.

    The main rumor seems to be that they are happening, but are not in Legacy - so likely their own separate releases/line.

    Maybe they're in that new Walmart line Catz talked about?

    It sounds more like Apollux just straight up cannot talk about it until it's officially revealed by Hasbro themselves. At least, that's how I read that last message.

    That's right, can't talk about it, any movie stuff at all, or any mainline figures before they're listed/public domain.

    Sorry guys, gotta keep my friend safely employed.

    I swear Hasbro executives derive sexual pleasure from the clusterfuck of scalping that ensue from people trying to finish the Head/Targetmaster lineup.

    I'd say its definitely in decline outside of the toy part. For all the issues of modern toys (such as price increased from a fucked economy to hollow parts, among other things) they are definitely getting damn good when it come to articulation and screen accuracy. Even retooling went from lazy and disliked to a main feature that can help make some great figures at a reduced cost. However, G1 and BW nostalgia aren't sustainable, the movie market has changed, the Bay hype is gone and we haven't had a good show since Prime. Transformers in its current state is a celebration of the last 40 years but in 10 years what are we going to celebrate, the 10 years of the 40th anniversary?

    Well yeah, the kids and zoomers like Bay because they got nostalgia for it and ignore the fact its basically like a bad episode of G1 but with violence, sex, stupidity and Michael Bay fellating the US army (at least before he seemed to change his tune to something more politically correct to keep his job). Oh and sunset and CGI that gives you headaches or a stroke.

    Beast Wars is doomed to become lost to future generations of fans because everyone who is too young will laugh at its 'bad PS1 cutscene visuals' not understanding it was part of the original wave of all-CGI television shows made by Mainframe entertainement. Then again, this is the same mentality as people screaming games, anime or movies from 5 years ago are 'too old'.

    I've made a prediction about what the next show will do the fanbase and they booed me.

    It ain't the thread for it, so go look up my lengthy and controversial history in the Unpopular Opinion thread. Just keep in mind the nature of said thread.

    Hmmm... F-117-inspired UT:Cybertron Soundwave or B-2 bomber Soundwave that keeps WfC microcassette compatibility? (I know it's not happening, but I can still dream.)

    Edit: The more I think about it, the more I like A-10 Thunderbolt Grimlock.

    @Apollux do you know if blaster can store 1 or 2 cassettes? I figure if he has 2 it'll basically confirm more will be coming at some point

    I hope so, that Earthrise mold just isn't going to cut it for me.
