  1. Generations Arcee and X-Transbots' MP Wheelie arrived. Really happy with both.
  2. They learned that lesson well. By underestimating how endearing to kids the Marvel and Sunbow writers had made the characters, Hasbro clearly thought of them as interchangeable and/or expendable. Now they release multiple molds for the same characters rather than kill them off in favor of new ones. Even Prime Cliffjumper (who died in the first episode) got three molds in that line. Bets are seriously covered now.
  3. Yup, it's a reissue. I forgot Omega was part of the Encore line. Nice grab, David.
  4. I really didn't. Thanks for clarifying, though. Good news that we should be able to ship Bee and Magnus together.
  5. Daniel? I though Bumblebee comes with Spike. He looks like he got MP-10 Spike's hips with a skinnier upper body (for whatever reason).
  6. Which makes me wonder if they even listen to consumer feedback on their prototypes.
  7. Well...I was hoping to have gotten a payment request from HLJ for Ultra Magnus, but...
  8. I'll take HLJ's word for it. They were spot on with BB & Wheeljack's release dates. Plus, I like their date better.
  9. Same here. Just opened Wheeljack. He's definitely a high point in the MP line.
  10. Haven't received mine yet. I'm sure if it has that flaw, I'll learn to live with it. I mean, if the choices are that or the mallet.
  11. That's a great idea. I don't think Nintendo wanted in on this. Too bad, because a light gun Megatron would've rocked. Or the Sega Master System Zillion gun. Edit: With Soundwave as the Master System!!
  12. The "Explore, explore!" bot should have been fired. He's part of an Autobot ship, but repairs the Decepticons first.
  13. The comics have addressed that in a way. The idea is that each bot is born (or forged) as they are with whatever their alt mode is, be it truck, speedster, jet, microscope, etc. They can change their alt modes, but only to one within the same category. This explanation is from a couple years back (and I haven't read any recent books), so it may be different now.
  14. I'd be interested to know as well. Just FYI, though, Ley also has the faux leather material in his outfit.
  15. Did anybody visit the link? There's a FAQ there that addresses many of the points made in the past couple pages. The idea actually started with an IDW TF artist and a writer/colorist having a hypothetical conversation about what they'd like to see and what they could do with it. Like everybody on IDW's TF series, these guys are fans. They'd rather not make something that people hate.
  16. Please sign this petition and spread the word. https://www.change.org/p/idw-publishing-bring-back-the-transformers-generation-one-cartoon-as-a-new-idw-comic It's a push to get IDW to fill in G1 stories, like the events between Season 2 and TFTM. Or the events after "The Rebirth" in Season 4. Lots of potential for good storytelling there.
  17. That's what I was thinking. It didn't really feel any more like a derail or threadjacking than a discussion about Diaclones.
  18. My favorites were Pathfinder (UFO), Bad Boy (A-10 Warthog), Royal-T (Harrier), Road Ranger (Flat bed truck) and Psycho (Future machine car). Still missing two of those.
  19. LOL! Already got that bug. I landed a lot that included most of the ones mentioned in the last bunch of posts. Got puzzler in another moment of weakness. Kinda loosey-goosey, but he was a good combiner...upper thigh swivel to boot.
