    With the confirmation that Skyquake connects with Needlenose in their jet modes, they're almost certainly going to be retooled into G2 Dreadwing and Smokescreen, possibly even BWII BB and Starscream.

    Will genuinely never understand the people who are overly critical of core class figures not looking like their voyager counterparts

    Sometimes yall forget these are 8cm tall childrens' toys and not some hyper-poseable sh figuarts action figures or something

    What did they say exactly? Not that I don't believe you but I must have missed it.

    More likely were getting G1 Skyquake and the Predators considering how much Mark was name dropping them.

    I guess they're waiting for PvP or Chefatron to make a video review instead...

    I only wish I had as much enthusiasm day to day as Mark has for the Junkions he designed. They aren't things that interest me as a collector — but hot damn, Hasbro and Mark are absolutely on a roll with those. You can tell they have a great idea with them, and enjoy making them. All the new Junkion characters have been absolutely baller looking. Those look like great toys with a great combining gimmick.

    I think it was right after they talked about Crashbar, they said something along the lines of “it would be cool to see them in different colors” “there coming”

    I think G1/2 Skyquake and one of more of the Predator jets are much more likely, neither of them look anything like G2 Dreadwing and Smokescreen. Don't get why people seem to want them made from these molds. I supposed it could be made to work with really heavy retooling but considering G1 Skyquake wouldn't need any new parts at all that just seems so much more obvious.

    Doing the through the space bridge reveals is a really smart way of Hasbro trying to stay ahead of the leak squad. Yes we knew about the listings but at least teasing the figures before early production samples get into the hands of leak reviewers is really smart.

    Super excited to see how Armada Megatron turns out!

    That’s preorders in for Grimlock, Thundercracker, Shrapnel and Metalhawk. Now we play the waiting game.

    I think they suffer a little due to the fact that they have to combine. But that being said Grimlock came out better than Slug and espSludge so that
    So many, Dreadwing (which we know is coming), G1 Skyquake, King Atlas, Machine Wars Skyquake, it won’t happen but I could see a g1-ified movie Starscream out of this.

    The best part about Legacy is not preordering the entire wave. $$$

    Not saying that in a way to disparage characters I don't want, but genuinely celebrating there are characters I don't want. Lol.

    Do we know who is Skyquake’s wave mate is? Now that I think about it who is TMII Megatron’s wave mate? Unless they’re both part of wave 1 leaders or TMII Megatron gets packed and released for the third time on legacy…

    I only ordered Shrapnel. And yeah, it does feel strangely good to not feel much urge to order anything else.

    Interesting that on Crashbar's packaging they point out that his head can be removed
