I was born in 87, so basically as much as I love the retro late-80's nostalgia funzone that HasTak has been happy to have we manchildren wallow in as much as the rest of you guys even *I'm* ready for something else to get referenced like Armada recolours to mix things up a bit. I really appreciated Generations Tankor even if his subsequent inclusion in the IDWverse makes no sense, anyway "lol BM has no positive things about it" is a stale joke excuse me while I preorder more nu-headmasters

Just because it's time for some new blood doesn't mean we have to go straight to the swamp water. I'd rather see them salvage stuff from the Unicron Trilogy or RiD than dig through Beast Machines for desperate nuggets of potential.

In fact, even though I don't like the Unicron Trilogy at all, really, once they're done with Titan Class Trypticon, Scorponok, and Omega, I would be 100% on board with a Titan Class Tidal Wave. Maybe that's just the kid who wanted the USS Flagg and never got it in me talking, but I think they could do some pretty cool stuff with him at that size.

Vehicons should be what they call the ones who discriminate against beast alt modes like Ravage and co in IDW.

Uncorked TWINFERNO today. Wish he had wrist swivels but I still like him, he's a weirdo cyborg mishmash with Nataku arms and stumpy legs and freakin batwings. And the saddest crotchplate I've ever seen.

Blastcharge was legendarily weak, even at the time of release. His vehicle mode is great but not worth it. Reminds me a little bit of Armada Demolishor in that regard actually, though he's closer to not sucking than mr. tire-knees here.

Bought a Masterpiece Inferno from China, cheaper than anywhere on eBay by a margin of $10 AND randomly came with super express courier posting. I mentioned how bizarrely awesome this was to my gf and she's like "... so it fell off the back of a truck, yeah?".

Is that likely? Kinda not into that.

Over $10? No, it's probably just someone who wants to get rid of it. I don't see why someone who stole it wouldn't just put it up at the going rate. You think the MP cops are gonna bust down his door at any minute and he's gotta get this hot robot out the window before they do?

And yeah shipping out of China is bizarrely fast.

No but seriously that's a handsome combination of colors.

Universe 1.0 had some really underappreciated redecoes.

Reptilion, Snarl, Blastcharge, Skywarp, Striker, the Air Raid and Wind Sheer Cyberjet redecoes, Frostbite, and Depthcharge were some of my favorites.

I had forgotten all about Universe 1.0, it was *great* to help fill out the Armada era with some really rad decos. Nothing will ever make me buy the Blastcharge mold again (I bought it the same night I saw Charlie's Angels with some friends, an evening full of poor choices) but that is a fine rear end paint job right there.

Know that Universe Razorclaw was a vastly superior repaint to the original, too.

Chefatron has reviews up of most the newest wave guys, both Titans Return and RiD too (Brawn is awesome, and RiD Soundwave is too). That guy tends to ramble a bit however though the reviews are still short. There's a couple of photo reviews over TFW too if you wanna see.
