OPTIMUS124 Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 (edited) Possible leaks for an upcoming Takara release . . . . An articulated G1 Optimus Prime (Convoy). If true, this is G1 2.0. Edited July 31 by OPTIMUS124 Abbachio, DangerousJ and RegH81 3 Quote Link to comment
RegH81 Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 Why is Shockwave terrifying in, like, every single version of Transfomers? Dude is like that one MF you pray you don't see when you're going down a dark alley and look behind you. That said, the EarthSpark figure of Shockwave looks BALLER. Like, I love that MF in bot and alt mode. OPTIMUS124 1 Quote Link to comment

RegH81 Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 As per usual, Hasbro releases their Transformers months ahead of the original release date. So My War for Cybertron Studio Series Gamer Edition Megatron arrived on Sunday. He looks so dang good. Might be one of my favorite tank Megs alt mode but I LOVE his bot mode. Thinking of getting one for my nephew for Christmas. Also, Armada Starscream was on sale for $21 on Amazon. YOINK! He'll be at my doorstep on Wednesday.

RegH81 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 I KNEW my reasons for being shook whenever this MF is shows up were valid. Quote Link to comment
RegH81 Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 I saw Rise of the Beasts a few weeks ago. Pretty good flick. I was initially surprised at Wheeljack's designs, but it quickly won me over. Like, the color scheme, and design all just work for me. I just wish he had more screen time. Same for Rhinox and the other Maximals. DangerousJ and OPTIMUS124 2 Quote Link to comment
RegH81 Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 I've never bought anything on Hasbro Pulse, but I'm seeing they have some items that aren't on Amazon yet like that SICK Core Class Optimus Prime and Bumblebee 2 pack. they also have pre-orders for Missing Link Optimus Prime.

RegH81 Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 (edited) Much as I love the more high end figures from the Studio Series and Legacy lines, I really like the gimmicky, more child friendly Transformers. I found some one step EarthSpark figures, Bumblebee and Soundwave and it is just endlessly enjoyable to just transform them back and forth. They remind of Transformers you would find in Happy Meals back in the day. I guess it's the kid in me. The Rise of the Beasts Beast Alliance Battle Changer Optimus Prime is so freaking fun to transform back to truck and bot mode. He's also pretty detailed for a smaller figure. Yeah, he isn't much for articulation, but he's got the freaking sword attached to his hand and he has a simple, fun transformation. And I dig his armored truck design. Much as I love the trailerless Prime truck we usually get, I love it when Hasbro changes up the design. Edited September 4 by RegH81 DangerousJ 1 Quote Link to comment
DangerousJ Posted September 14 Author Share Posted September 14 Early review of SS86 Commander class... Ultra Magnus! RegH81 1 Quote Link to comment
RegH81 Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 Thar Studio Series Ultra Magnus looks GODLIKE. Had my eye on him ever since he showed up for Pre-order on Amazon. Maybe I'll treat myself to him for Christmas. Hasbro is effin' up! My Target and Walmart never have the Buzzworthy Bumblebee Rise of the Beasts Optimus Prime or the Rise of the Beasts Voyager Class Prime. Both those figures look sick AF and it pains me that he is never in stock. Same deal on Amazon and other online retailers I shop at. Quote Link to comment
RegH81 Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 Went to the Walmart by my church. I found EarthSpark Thrash, the nifty finger EarthSpark tacticons, Arcee and Hashtag. And finally. I FINALLY found a Rise of the Beasts Voyager Class Optimus Prime! The detail on this sucker is SO. GOOD. Easily one of my favorite Prime figures. DangerousJ 1 Quote Link to comment
RegH81 Posted September 20 Share Posted September 20 I love Transformers Animated and have been wanting to get my hands on more figures from this series. This Bumblebee looks CRAZY GOOD! My Legacy Evolution Core Class Optimus Prime & Bumblebee arrived today. This is one of those boxes I'm gonna hang onto. DangerousJ 1 Quote Link to comment
DangerousJ Posted September 23 Author Share Posted September 23 Legacy United wave 1 figures revealed. Release: Jan. 2024. https://news.tfw2005.com/2023/09/22/transformers-legacy-united-wave-1-official-pics-and-pre-orders-494950 RegH81 1 Quote Link to comment
RegH81 Posted September 23 Share Posted September 23 Amazon is taking pre-orders for a few Legacy United figures. Windblade Animated Optimus Prime Animated Bumblebee Energon Megatron I never picked up Cyberverse Windblade and I kinda kick myself for it. She has such a cool design. Def getting her this time around. I put Megs, Bee and Optimus on pre-order. DangerousJ 1 Quote Link to comment
RegH81 Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 Gimmick Rise of the Beasts Optimus Prime and Lionblade looks cool, IMO. The Leo Prime look is strong with this one. Quote Link to comment

OPTIMUS124 Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 (edited) Me and pre-orders on the Transformers front have been terrible. Via Amazon, I missed out on the Gamer Edition Prime (BKA Optimus Prime from the War for Cybertron game) and now the Animated Legacy one. Animated Prime is still available at most other retailers, yet they charge shipping. Gamer Edition Prime is going to be a re-pack with the upcoming wave.

RegH81 Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 Target canceled their pre-orders for Studio Series Buzzworthy Bumblebee Rise of the Beasts Voyager Class Optimus Prime. The figure being a Target Exclusive wouldn't have been bad if there was enough supply to meet the overwhelming demand. I don't think I'll ever own an legit version of this Prime without paying 70$ or over 100$ and I ain't tryna eff with that. Soooo, I looked into KO versions and ordered this guy. Comparisons between the KO and official version are pretty interesting. Abbachio and DangerousJ 1 1 Quote Link to comment

DangerousJ Posted November 20 Author Share Posted November 20 Sad news... Peter Spellos (RID 2001 Skybyte) has passed away from pancreatic cancer. His character was recently induced into the Transformers Hall of Fame a few months ago. (On the left in the tweet) OPTIMUS124 1 Quote Link to comment
OPTIMUS124 Posted November 23 Share Posted November 23 Not sure if anyone is a Hasbro Pulse member but their Cyber Sale is going on for certain items (AKA Seasons Savings). Use the promo Code CYBER25 for 25% off. Premium Members get 35 with code CYBER35.
