The AoE line was widely derided for being anemic so this is probably Hasbro responding to that.

There was just so many bullshit bots in the AoE line, the actual "decent" core line had what, a dozen deluxes, six voyagers and two leaders?

Has it been more or less confirmed that the third "Masterpiece" is Barricade? Because I'm probably down for a Barricade.

If you really REALLY like that mold then you should check out the one a 3RD party called Generation Toy is doing.

Looks to be about masterpiece scale?

The only problem with the mold is that's Megatron's "eat phase sixers for lunch and poo poo them on Starscream's face" moment in the comics and it's a tiny little thing.

It's a pity no one read Chaos, that scene was good.

I'm surprised there isn't an oversized knockoff version

Overall a great mold, but I won't deny that some aspects of his transformation can be annoying to deal with

I guess the CAD file for that Megatron never fell off the back of a truck. But almost all the KO's of Generations deluxes are pretty bad.

Well, I'm in Louisiana, and Wave 3 is everywhere. I've picked up another Gnaw (out of about 10 I've seen dotted around stores) and a Kickback. Target has TR deluxes at 9.99, so I'll get Twinferno tomorrow because that seems about right for dragon hands. Also, somewhere had Soundwave for $35.

Haven't been in a Walgreens yet, but that's probably where I'll find wave 4. So many Astrotrains still on shelves.

I'm bummed about TLK Barricade, because other than having the entire drat car roof on his back unchanged, the rest of the figure is pretty good. Great transformation, cool handgun and baton accessories that store at his hips, wrist swivels!. And the car is nice too. Wish that backpack folded up and the guy would've a must have for me, but I still kinda want it as it is.

I finally found a Triggerhappy at Target. I don't really have anything to offer about him that hasn't already been said... Great toy. Unique transformation.

He is going to best buds with Highbrow on my shelf. They are going to have a cross faction bro-ship that confuses everyone else, but they seem to make sense for each other.

An eleven year old girl stares into the camera. "Feminism is being exploited for this marketing campaign by 90 year old rich dudes" she grunts disinterestedly.

We hard cut from her dead eyes to a scene of the same child- too young to cross the street alone- repairing an advanced alien robot that couldn't be fixed by his actual species' leading physician.

Whip pan back to the child who looks enough like Megan Fox gave birth to her three weeks ago that Bay might as well change his first name to Roman. She addresses the viewer directly, in the most condescending PS ever filmed "Idiots will argue about the political importance of this poo poo heap film on the internet. Seeing the fifth transformers movie is important for the culture war and if you don't, you are a misogynist racist".

Cut to IP theft montage of Metal gears, tie interceptors, and the ship from Prometheus.

Dip to white to the only transformer actually doing something in the trailer, the most brutal of the autobots, being told off by Marky Mark.

I'm dead inside because I find Squeaks more annoying than the obvious marketing angle they're using in that trailer.

Though to be fair that's a trail for the kid's choice awards, which is already old rich white dudes exploiting children (probably?)
