    Honestly just sounds like a rebranding of their premium finish line

    Maybe this is the last chance at those molds before the probably inevitable SS86 upgrades in the next few years ?

    Looks like they enjoy the extra cash grab they discovered by recoloring the Kingdom BW stuff with ultra-toon-accuracy and want to keep that ball rolling

    Well, I don't have a siege Shockwave and my Netflix Soundwave is yellowing pretty badly, so this is nice for that, but Earthrise Megatron still looks like ass and I already have the throne from Starscream

    Yeah, I think that's exactly what this is- and not the harbinger of things to come that I've seen others speculate.

    Just throwing my opinions now:

    While cartoon accurate, I think most people are just sick of the Siege/Earthrise Megatron mold at this point.

    Shockwave is nice if you couldn't find one from Siege.

    Only really care about Soundwave, though I rather buy him separately from the other guys I really don't care for.

    Ghost Starscream is for....I dunno, people who aren't going to seriously play with it? (Waspinator is there I guess)

    Um... you are aware that all transformers toys are made in the same factories, regardless of whether it's a Hasbro or TT release, right?

    Hasbro said that plastic was fixed and last case of yellowing was SG Soundwave.

    Indeed I am but given the new paint jobs and Hasbo said they fix the issue, I'm willing to take a punt on this 3 pack. It looks amazing.
