No TF vs GIJOE set?

 

Rotorstorm will make a fine addition to my wreckers collection.

 

This one is more toon accurate I guess.

 

I liked that they used the Spinster mold, but on second look, I agree about the head. Doesn't work.

When I saw the pic of him holding Blaster I thought”Blaster for Earthrise!!!”, then saw it was a reissue. Dang it. The weapons pack is really cool and I will get it, but seriously no Siege Hound missile?! Maybe in the next pack, but we really need that missile if they are doing those types of packs.

 

Ok Hasbro, now give us Generations Selects

well...

*watching video......*

Not really sure what to think here.... or how to be polite about it.

For the accessories, I was thinking more generic accessories, and not really stuff like that. The items as the "mini" figures do not appeal to me as I'm not a "mass shifting" fan, and why I really liked that the Siege approach to those characters that did, were redone as ships and such. The Optimus parts that SHOULD have been included with the figure... it's a weird choice for approach taken as far as I'm concerned. The few pieces that appear new or at least can be consider as "new" and appears to be actually worth getting, are eclipsed by the rest. Overall, it's actually a pretty bad selection, but even then, to have it as a special exclusive kit that is part of a figure.. just..dang.

The whole "oh wow, these are amazing" thing that this guy was doing was over the top... these figures are pretty much all cheap repaints... nothing new at all aside colour. Seriously... "here's Sideswipe again, but this time he's yellow and we'll call him XXX".. just give him a new hat already.

I can go and buy any of these right now and take my paint out and have virtually identical to these by the end of the day if I wanted... it's just.... just ... sad.
Heck, I already have a spare Spinister that I plan to customize and I can assure you that it will look better than this skittles coloured disaster.

Very disappointed overall with this. The best thing about this is that I'll save money as they didn't show anything that I would really want.

 

It was nice to see there were actual new reveals and not just the stuff that's been leaked out recently!

I really love the weapons pack. Hope we see more like it in the near future.

Tigertrack was a huge surprise and I'm definitely picking it up.

Rotorstorm didn't really do much for me to be honest. Typically I'm always excited about supporting the more obscure characters but I really don't know if I'll get it. I'm sure the lack of a new headsculpt didn't help matters.

G1 Blaster reissue...cool for those wanting it, but I don't need it.

It was good seeing the RED stuff in hand to get a better idea of what they'll be like. I'm still not interested in getting many of them, but I'm happy they'll be spreading out to more characters than just the G1 A-listers.

I'm intrigued by the possibility of getting more Japanese centric releases made more accessible...I have most of the Japanese G1 stuff but I want to see what they're going to offer!

 

we got a deepcover rumor for netflix so that one off

 

Yellow sideswipe.....sure why not.

Weapons pack HELL YES!!!!

Now they need to start making blast effect packs!

 

So do the pulse exclusives usually end up at other places to buy besides ebay?

 

I’ll be buying the weapons pack today and eventually will buy Rotorstorm. That Spinster mold is great enough for me to buy two of that mold. I hope someone comes out with a new head though because that head on the figure is really lazy.

 

And also Roritchi as well, maybe based on Masterforce Guardminder

 

Yeah, that's what I thought too. Hmm.

Overall the accessory pack is a very pleasant surprise, but I have similar concerns like some of you guys. I'm not sure how I feel about the Centurion figure, so I would've preferred for the accessories to come by themselves, maybe in a $5-6 pack or something like that.

Tigertrack is something I'm happy to see. I didn't buy any version of Sideswipe yet, because I want an earth mode of him, but I think I might get Tigertrack and Deep Cover, because either way I think that mold looks really good.

 

...they could spoil it and tell what happens.

 

Hm. I missed it. Is it hosted anywhere?

EDIT: Nevermind, I found it, it's on facebook. I should have known.

Hasbro Pulse on Facebook Watch

 

I'm in the exact same boat.
I'm sure however there are tons of people who are the exact opposite.....THRILLED that they are getting (insert reveal name here).

 

because they finally made one that looks right?
