    Not that I'm not completely thrilled with what's here, but I'm still going to say we need the following from IF in the next year or two:

    Computron
    Thunderclash
    Hotrod
    Chromia (I need to complete my legends combiner hunters set! 2019 mid-year reveal maybe?)

    Mother of God. Iron Factory is gonna be killing it. These look fantastic. In for everything but the BW guys (don't collect beastformers). Starscream girl is a nice surprise. Hope we see more like her.

    They gave her a new product number prefix. I'm guessing they have more planned.

    Thans for the tip. I managed to find the toyplus weibo, but that’s as far as I got. No clue where to find the app, so I’ll just have to hover over Ebay until my prize turns up.

    I wonder if next year in this hobby I’ll be taking Chinese classes :D

    I stopped getting seekers after Acid Rain and Sunstorm, but if they made a hot pink version, I would get it. I don't why.

    Wait for it, next convention they’ll have one :) 

    There’s supposedly a pink KO of classics Starscream, but I think it’s rare now and I know of no others. A shame, I want a Barbiescream too.

    So does anyone think that a IF Starscream reissue can be in the works?

    I'm happy to be the asshole sometimes. Lol

    And I never said they screwed the pooch on this whole line, just soundwave.

    Really great designs on a number of these. This TM2 Megs seems like the one to get, Op Op looks like a good translation to this size, and Magnus does a look of fun things with the elements of his design. Interested in more pics from all angles and final prices. I only have some many collecting dollars on the table for 3P with Seige hitting it out of the park.

    I’ll agree with those who find Soundwave and G1 Megs disappointing, though.

    i'm oddly interested in that BW TM megatron as well... something about Death incarnate warriors in tiny packages make me happy.
    *looks at pictures of tiny pokemon of destruction being pet*
    ghh.

    i don't like to derail topics, but what is TE blackarachnia and rattrap?

    edit: nevermind, found them

    Maximus Ambus looking good.
    967.jpg

    Oh, let me see...

    100% yes:
    Maximus Ambus
    Megatron
    TM2 Megatron
    Wheeljack
    Mirage

    Maybe:
    Hound
    Runamuck
    Runabout
    Cliffjumper
    Scourge (Nemesis Prime)

    Pass:
    Blue Bluestreak
    Bitstream
    Redwing
    Soundwave 2.0
    Kissplayer Starscream
    TM2 Optimal Optimus

    I'm guessing Wheeljack, Mirage, Hound, and Cliffjumper will be paired off. So there might be less of a choice picking one or the other.
    Same with Runabout and Runamuck.

    Cliffjumper is a Mini Cooper, per the IDW series. His bot mode has most of the parts in the right place as well (shoulder headlights, hood chest, rear end feet).

    I'll be getting TW Exhaust. I don't have the MP and I like the racing livery.
    I'll probably get IF Wheeljack, as I already have the MP and IF's looks like the chug Wheeljack from back in the day.

    In for everything but the Starscream girl thing.

    Megatron must be bought...no matter the cost.

    I’m 100%
    Megatron (here’s to hoping he’s the size of their prime in armor)
    Wheel jack
    Hound
    Mirage
    Cliff Jumper

    Maybe:
    Maximus Ambus (price might be high)
    Bluestreak
    Runabout and runamuck

    Probably pass on everything else.
