    Redid my limited shelves before the new arrivals come and all the movie 1 bots plus Soundwave and his minions (because they are awesome and i am literally out of space) ended up in the same shelf for the first time.

    So I've got a few announcements.

    1st

    I've been informed that my sources are going underground and won't be sharing anything else with me that I can share here this is expected to be until September at least.

    Unfortunate I know but nobody wants corporate Ninja's to suddenly suprise you and you lose your job and reputation in the industry I'll be staying around and will update you when I can.

    2nd

    As a parting gift they asked me to be patient and look forward to 2021 it's going to be a wild ride and when it comes to SS and the inclusion of the 1986 line it's not yet confirmed but seems to be either included in main retail or may be exclusive.

    Thanks for all the info so far!

    Between the stuff that's confirmed for 2020 and the rumored/product listing character,s there's a ton of TFs I want to buy.
    Have to say though, I have been thinking about The Fallen and Galvatron frequently. I would like to see one of those come out next year.

    I bought the @capcomkai BA Prime head but since it's designed to be able to transform, it looks small on the OSKO. So I (permanently) tried it out on my MPM-4.

    It looks amazing on him and will no doubt look a lot better on LT-02. I haven't put batteries in it yet.

    It's not perfect. My biggest gripe is that even though the head is on a ball joint, articulation is barely better than a swivel joint. So you have a swivel at the base of the neck and a swivel with a bit of wiggle at the base of the head.

    Just because they are called French Fries, doesn't mean they are French.

    So a whole line of actionmasters for one figure, that was already awesome AND transformable in MP-36?
    Not so unpopular. Most people just already had lockdown at that point and didn't want/need another one. SR looks really cool in both modes.
    We appreciate everything you do for us getting us this info! No worries.
    Looks really good! And yeah my DMS head for BA Prime has the same lack of articulation, although it is definitely serviceable. Good thing is he can look down a lot. The people who are good at modeling, printing and painting really need to team up with the guys who are good at transformation engineering and make a larger head that is also transformable. If the ears folded down and the necks collapsed or something it'd be so cool.

    Thanks everyone for the kind words but feel like I need to make an amendment to my earlier message.

    I'm not going anywhere and ill continue to bring new rumors and info but they will be less frequent and until it's safe for my source to surface they may not be very interesting or very accurate.

    He isn’t CHUG scale. Besides, if Hasbro really does give two shits, they can do people like Minerva, Cancer, Clouder and all sorts of Godmasters and Headmasters.

    These were ordered via ebay uk from a chinese seller about a month ago. I just searched regularly for ‘unique toys base’ and kept an eye on listings until someone had a cheap job lot vs the sellers putting them on for more than a leader class lol.

    Just wanting to show some appreciation for Stockade:

    IMG_20200720_083403.jpg

    When it comes to movieverse toys, most of the off-screen characters toys has some of the more obscure but interesting designs around, and 07 Stockade here is no exception; With the bulky torso, massive fists and long, bulky arms, Stockade here has a quite a robot mode that looks more like a gorilla than your typical humanoid TF robot mode.
