    They repacked two Seige figures people had a hard time finding in early waves of a new line...and that's bad?

    People "vote with their wallet" all the time. Why do you think they stopped repainting figures as often as they did in CW/TR and went back to repacks?

    Takara Tomy Transformers Twitter uploaded new images of Maccadam. Seems a fun and posable figure.

    Not sure how to feel about this - he doesn't transform and honestly, the design doesn't really do it for me. Then again, I'm biased and I think the mustached bartender guy always should have just straight up been Macaddam.

    Well, to be more technical, this particular incarnation of Maccadam actually is Alchemist Prime.
    For example, this is the design you prefer:

    This is the design of Cyberverse Maccadam:
    [​IMG]
    And this is Alchemist Prime:
    [​IMG]
    You see, Maccadam was always implied to be a member of the Thirteen. To be more exact, your personal theory is that Maccadam was actually Alchemist Prime. Well, in Cyberverse, Maccadam IS Alchemist Prime./SPOILER]

    Personally, I kind of wish Maccadam had remained the unseen bot of mystery he used to be.

    I would like to buy this figure without having to buy 8 crappy cyberverse figures that I dont care about. Im open to displaying characters of other aesthetics with my generations collection. So hopefully the KO guys take advantage of this, or someone sells him for a reasonable price.

    I'm not surprise that he can't transform, but I really wish he was bigger. He's shorter than every one of the deluxe class toys.

    Ah, its not THAT BAD. it was only a matter of time before Transformers decided to make a build a figure.....even  tho combiner kind of always were....but regardless. I cant complain about a Maccadam being made because i sure as hell didnt ask for one, but nice to see him!

    His alt mode was never seen for intentional purposes

    The thing with Maccadam was that his alt mode was always intentionally unseen. Whenever he transformed you could just see the shadow and it was implied to be some kind of hulking, ridiculously-powerful monstrocity. It would be weird if this guy transformed.



    Pretty bad quality, but you get the point.
