 My PE Deathstalker and Warden booster set arrived today. I'll sort his legs out at the weekend but have some squishy Scorponok VS Lego warrior action in the meantime.

Rhyno posted:Odd question: Did Armada Megatron every get a retool into Scorponok? Sort of? OTFCC 2004 had a black redeco of him named "Megazarak" (Scorponok's Japanese name), but other than the name they don't seem to have much in common.

BBTS seems to have preorders up for wave 2 deluxe and legends Combiner Wars. No Motormaster yet.

So I've been out of the loop for a few months. Did the combiner stuff drop yet? I really want to grab a lot of that stuff. I haven't really been looking out recently. Are Arcee and Brainstorm out yet?

Arcee and Brainstorm are 'out' but have not (and probably won't) reach saturation. Combiner Wars has new packaging and is a new line, so the older Generations line isn't being stocked. As usual might show up in the discount slash close out stores.

I thought you were saying that I thought Hasbro was going after companies, I just meant that the reason they have weird rear end names, is to not infringe on hasbro's copyright so they won't eat a Cease and Desist letter.

AQNA is an acronym for "A Question Not Answered" which I guess is an injoke for Hasbro's stance on third parties. It's also the name of quite a few people on the No Fly list, so watch your search histories.

Knormal posted:I'd recommend picking up Arcee (with Chromia since that's the only way they're still selling her) from BBTS while they still have her if you want to guarantee yourself an Arcee. Between being in the final wave of the line and being scalped to all hell she's going to be rare. Thanks a ton. Also grabbed the MP Bumblebee and Wheeljack while I was there. Are there any free shipping things going on with HTS currently?

So, remember how Windblade was created through an official fan poll? It's time for another one: This time a fan created combiner team! http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/generations-classics-44/new-fan-built-combiner-poll-announced-by-hasbro-181859/

Blackheart posted:Finally, the five-bumblebee combiner team I've dreamed of. It's people like you that are ruining the world.  Also a fan created bot, if it has the same timeframe as windblade it could be well into 2016 before it's released. Because they started Windblade back when FOC was a thing. Which means more combiners for years to come. Also Defensor is real http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers...nfirmed-181861/ Looks like Wave 3 is going to be interesting. First Aid is a combat vehicle which isn't something seen since the PCC Protectobots. Also Rook is an armored truck so unless Blades and Streetwise are not happening there will be no motorcycle limb. However Motorcycle could still wind up being a legends figure. The Taint Reaper fucked around with this message at 20:43 on Jan 15, 2015 |

Neato. I have G1 Blades kicking around and would love a modern take. I also have a Motormaster and a busted up Silverbolt plus some other randoms for that matter. So with all these new versions my inner 5 year old is super excited to finally have full iterations of the combiner teams with current engineering. On another note, I mostly lurk, but if folks are interested I can post pics of some robots I'm clearing out for a potential move, and to make room in the collection, before I before I start putting things up on eBay.

I am really hoping there is some weird rear end not-combiner to use as a torso so I can make this mishmash abomination combiner. So far Rook + Alpha Bravo + Offroad! And Black Jack jammed in somewhere randomly. It will be hideous.

As goofy as the all bumblebee combiner idea is I could totally see the comic running a guy who combines with himself from different times. It'd be like Dr. Who Voltron.
