My immediate reaction was WTF Is this generic trailer and song? BB is basically Toad from Mario bros movie and something about Megatron I don’t like. Maybe it’s his face, lips, attitude but his voice doesn’t match in my head even for a younger version. I realize this is not G1 continuity. It’s bumblebee movie continuity which we know there is no real continuity in these movies. They want that Mario bros money, fair enough, but I don’t think this will get it there. We’ll see.
Anyway my 5 yr old daughter was laughing with it. She is probably still too young for the intended audience, but she’s seen some G1, prime, BW, and watches rescue bots so she knows who’s who. She wanted to watch the trailer multiple times.
My wife is not a big TF fan, but she knows I am and thought the trailer was great in that you can finally see a more relatable side to Optimus. As she put it, Optimus is always out of reach. He is an authority figure that you looked up to, but you never really knew him.. he’s the boss you don’t know how far you can tell dirty jokes before he fires you. Which I’d argue is a good thing. Anyway I don’t want to get deep into how he’s millions of (now) men’s robot dad.
I already accepted that everything I loved growing up will be destroyed or $ht on. I feel like Danny Glover “I’m too old for this $ht” I don’t like, but I don’t want to spend time and energy hating it. I wont spend money or time on it. That’s my general attitude towards current media.

Finally a wolverine with the articulation I want but not the wolverine I really wanted.
Since I don't have this iteration, I guess I'll pick it up and have to wait
until they get around to brown and tiger stripe with this articulation.

month. Even fell down the shf money pIt of figures. I think he was involved with the upcoming Dragonball daima anime.
This really sucks. RIP.

that's about 323 usd (or more if using paypal's conversion rate)
prob saving about 30 buck and tax vs. USA sites
well, at paypals conversion it was coming out to $340+ so just set it to pay in yen and let CC bank convert it. bank says $327.31 instead.

I'm surprised they didn't include some sort of little swing over heatshield cover on the inside of the cockpit given that they like doing little gimmicks like that.
Also, it's clear they were trying to duplicate this
but they somehow really interpreted the canopy shape wrong and made it way rounded off. In the illustration, you can still see that the canopy should still end up having two points to match the frame.
The Hasegawa model also has that highlighted detail, but the canopy shape is correct there. This annoys me that this got past everyone involved in designing this toy despite going to the lengths of looking at illustrations like the above...
ya it's gonna bug me, i'll probably end up painting it.

Courtesy of a very reliable source, 2024 will see a Commander-class Studio Series 86 Optimus Prime.😮

I would buy a Sonic Video game with Arcee as the star. that's what that video made me imagine I think the video really highlighted her true personality and timeless G1 styling.
What's funny I just watched another video shorty before with Arcee & a Beachball, but it was just a cameo of her and not well done .
Lol i remember this.

Somebody needs to mix all the different upgrades to make the perfect prime. Still waiting for TW-1030 to arrive. It’s too bad the shoulders weren’t fixed on that one.
