So I got my Steelbook copy of TF:TM 30th anniversary edition today.

It's missing the widescreen disc. It just has the fullscreen disc.

Is this being reported any where else? Are there any other people with the same problem or is it just my bad luck?

Is there supposed to be one? Just wondering because of this.

I guess I dodged a bullet, I ordered my copy off Amazon and it had both discs.

I was considering ditching my 20th anniversary TFTM DVD, but as I look at the special features on the 20th Anniversary edition, there's a surprising lack of overlap with the new bluray.

I got my Classics Prime from a Goon, and I love him like crazy. I don't even mind the arm kibble because I think of them like gauntlet-shields, like how Captain America usually holds his shield. Best Prime I've ever owned, and I used to have MP-01.

MP-01 sucks, so that's not difficult.

But yeah, 06 Prime is a good toy.

Gosh, TR Rewind is such a good boy, but transforming him gives me anxiety 100% of the time because it'd be so EASY to absent-mindedly snap his gun in half.

I had to throw the gun in a drawer after I bent mine nearly 90 degrees, like an idiot. I can't believe it didn't break.

Master Made Apollo turned up and good god almighty it might be the sexiest thing I've bought all year.



I'm really enjoying this series, so far despite being "Super Deformed" the only one that actually has a weird off-kilter head is Titan. Diabolus Rex just looks like a super stylised Trypticon and Apollo just looks badass.

Can't wait for their Scorponok now.

This might be a minor thing about the bluray but I'm disappointed the digital copy isn't iTunes or UV. You get a link to download it from the Shout Factory website.

Amazon currently has Optimus Primal available for just under $40. It looks like its the Beast Machines version rather then the Beast Wars model. Anyone have this already and what do you think about it?

It can be bent back into shape but it's amazing how literally everyone has hosed this up so far.

Got that YOTM Primal Prime. Never had the Air Attack mold before but for $40 shipped this is a great big chunk of toy. Simple but kind of inventive transformation, goofy but fun deco, dumb gimmicks that are localized rather than pervasive...

If he had thigh swivels he'd be pretty superb.

I sort of want a decent version of BM Optimus Primal, but that mold is too huge and I can't figure out who he's supposed to represent in those colours with that weird monkeytruck faction logo. It's a shame the smaller Blast Punch Primal sucked so badly.

It's just... perilous. Totally end-user error, of course, but...

I wonder if having the gun be affixed permanently as an arm cannon on a hinge would have reduced the likelihood of idiots like me making that mistake. Of course then it couldn't be the turret so nevermind...

I wasn't going to bite on Superion but for the cost of a torso you bet your rear end I will. And wouldn't you know it a KO of those color PE hand/foot kits is available.


Edit: People on FB are saying they have been coming back into stock and quickly selling out so if you need one just keep refreshing.

The opposite of Skull, apparently. Mine is pretty tight in most joints and some of them might be a little too tight. I bought him loose so the soft plastic rotors is a little bended

Yea it's currently sold out at 188. I'll keep checking though cuz that is a heck of a price for a whole combiner. Plus I had G2 Superion growing up so it'd be nice in a way haha
