    So does that mean Action Masters, Pretenders and some original ‘84 figures are ‘fake’ or ‘bad’ Transformers? All of those use parts forming or don’t use transformations.

    But I get what your saying, it’s just that some folks have this weird belligerence for what others prefer. I prefer scale and a high level of screen accuracy, big deal. I might be okay with some parts forming, big deal. I don’t really care for Pretenders and some folks love them, big deal.

    Folks get out of shape when scale gets brought up but we still have SIX different size classes that range from $10 to $160 in price. If Hasbro is not satisfying you with its offerings, I’m sorry I guess. I’m not fond of every choice but I also know Hasbro is not catering to me specifically.

    A CHUG-styled M Megatron or the "Cobra Mamba" Megatron, please, please, PLEASE. The later is especially a big want since we can't have a gun and if we're never getting a proper G2 tank any time soon.

    Marauder Megatron would be amazing in any style, I would definitely consoom the hell out of that.

    Hasbro makes an Animated copter Megatron . . . but it's a heavy retool of Siege Megatron again.

    Looks like there is no reveals today for Transformer Tuesday. At least I have 2 more Fan Firsts to look forward to this week.

    why are people expecting Road Rage and Wireframe Galvatron so soon? Won’t they only be reveal once the “main” figures that Road Rage and wire frame Galvatron are based on are available nationwide reach full-saturation? Road Rage and wireframe Galvatron are exclusives/selects figures. Hasbro will make a majority of their money off the main figures and those are Tracks and Kingdom Galvatron and those figures aren’t readily available yet nationwide at retail. No Walmart or Target in US have gotten Tracks or Galvatron in yet. Hasbro don’t want to cannibalize the sales from their mainline figures.

    People don't think about logistics when they talk about reveals

    If they are releasing a new Nautica, it’d be great if she looks like this. upload_2021-6-8_13-29-35.jpeg

    Basically a rotor with blades slapped on the hood of the tank. It’s now a Hovering And Heavy Artillery vehicle. Or a H.A.H.A. ‘Copter.

    Just a few months ago people were expecting Selects Toy Galvatron to be revealed before Kingdom Galvatron had even been officially revealed.

    That would work better than the new SG Megs that is coming out.

    Full disclosure: I preordered SG Megs but solely due to the fact how ridiculous his alt mode is.

    I mean, Cordon and Spin-Out were announced before Sunstreaker was released. I want to say the same for ER G2 megs but that could be wrong.

    But I do distinctly remember Cordon and Spin-Out being announced before Sunstreaker released. I had a conversation with somebody about that.

    The TR Nautica is a poor stand in. I say this as someone who owns it and put the Reprolabels on it. It just doesn’t satisfy. A flat panel with a sticker doesn’t work and it shouldn’t be a damn Headmaster.

    But why would they not do Armada for the 20th and instead do it a year later? it just doesn't add up to me.
