Jar Jar Binks, indeed.

On the other hand, we've seen terrible cartoons get priority before: Generations shipments pushed back or skipped in order to clutter shelves with cartoon merch. Unfortunately, the cartoons seldom hit a chord with kids, and collectors flock to the aftermarket for product they want.

So, ironically enuf, Earth Spark is more likely to set franchise back and HURT sales.

 

I doubt that.

I think it could be that or they are with Megatron cause in the first teaser you can see Megatron also in Mandroid's base fighting off his drones.

 

I hope that the snowcat figure is good.

 

i can respect that, but I totally did for macadam, I just loved him too much and he never had a figure before

 

If you haven't seen enough of Alan Tudyk's work yet to be a lifelong fan of his, do yourself a favor and look him up. I celebrate the man's entire catalog!

Rogue One wasn't my cup of tea, but his performance as K-2SO should be proof enough that he can do a characterful and multi-layered robot performance.

"I went to JULLIARD!"

 

I wonder what the lack of faction symbols on most of the toys is all about...

 

Likely a budget cut on paint apps more then anything.

 

You young kids have fun with this. Show looks very much for the youngest of kid's. Save for maybe one or two, these kids toys look extremely cheaply made, but that's just Hasbro in 2022!!!

 

Not my cuppa tea, but Hasbro is keeping the Transformers brand alive, so yay.

 

Yeah, you kids enjoy yourselves.

 

Megatron looks nice.......almost a V TOL Osprey Type Aircraft.......(similar to Animated, but without the swords (I think)

 

Some of the Warrior figures look interesting to me. Like the new Twitch figure. Or the new Megatron figure. Optimus doesn’t look bad, but would have liked more transformation to happen with the backpack. I don’t recognize most of the actors beside Dietrich Bader and Alan Tudyk (I’m really liking his voice for Prime. Definitely would like to see him return in the future.). Looking forward to Earthspark b/c they might change things up with the formula with the two Terran characters joking up with the human family.

 

Whats the name of that Windblade looking character. And is it just me or does that one seem to have an exceptional paintjob. Maybe its the light

 

Yes please.

Twitch

 

I don’t know if anyone commented this but the gun elita has for her gimmick is the same gun used by siege cog.

 

I really hope they do this eventually

 

Beast Wars didn't have faction symbols until later, if I recall correctly. It's fine, actually.

The thing with Earth Spark (at least for now) is the "Deluxe" price point isn't really a scale in the same way Studio and Legacy are. Much like Cyberverse before it, it appears all of the figures are the same size regardless what they are in show. Which is fine when all you want is toys.

So they could absolutely do Voyagers and Leaders, but it would likely wind up the same way and you'd get larger versions of popular characters along with a few that seem out of place at such a large size.

 

Considering the Autobots have a similar logo and this takes place in the future after the war is over, I'm assuming it acts like an Earth alliance logo. Optimus and Megs probably made a deal together and have some kind of truce to not harm Earth.

 

Could also be a thing defining rake but that is very possible.
