What are the chances of anyone having spare hands and helmet for Generations Metroplex? I ended up finding one at a thrift store missing everything that’s not bolted down. I know there was that DNA kit for both going around a few years back that’s impossible to find, thought I’d see if anyone here bought em and wants to sell the originals. In the meantime I’ve used a couple Sixguns to flesh him out and fill gaps, and a G1 Scorponok helmet works ~pretty well~. Figured I’d check here before I buy the DNA fort Max hands and either live with blue hands or paint em

There was an older upgrade kit that has a whole new head but it's extremely rare. A bunch of DNA kits just got put back up for preorder so there's a chance they will re-release the 'plex sets.

Hasbro Pulse is letting you buy Netflix Soundwave and Netflix Axey Prime, and just sent me an email about coming to the UK. I would have waited if I had known instead of hunting down a Netflix Soundwave at COVIDtowne, er, Walmart.

They're packing Rattrap in with Optimus for the Netflix release. There's a pic floating around but it confirms BW Netflix stuff is coming.

Today is a shitshow, and the used G1 and G2 bots I bought on eBay are no exception. I got a G2 Windbreaker and he’s missing a head (which wasn’t apparent in the photos and wasn’t mentioned in the description) and I got a G1 Ironfist which is missing his light piping (it was present in the listing photos). It’s just... not in his head. Am I an rear end in a top hat for complaining to the sellers and looking for partial refunds?

SNAD them and pick something else If an eBay item is significantly not as described, you can report the problem in either the eBay Resolution Center or the PayPal Resolution Center. You may be asked to return the item to the seller to be eligible for a refund. strangehamster fucked around with this message at 04:58 on Mar 13, 2021 |

I got Maverick and the color isn't really as bad in person. It's not good, but it does look better in hand.

And apparently the Voyagers for this round are Primal & Rattrap, and a sparkles Seeker with two Targetmasters. I shall call him "Shitstorm." Also, I guess that's the other version of Deep Cover they were talking about, huh? I do like me a blue Transformer...

 Stopped back at Ollie's to get a better look at the smaller ones they had, these are $6 but definitely didn't interest me. They had Doubledealer but I didn't see any more Primes. Waterford Michigan location.

Oh, "Sparkless" As in "without spark" I think y'all both had it autocorrect to "sparkles" and I was expecting something way more fancy looking

I always thought it was weird how the original character model of Megatron's arm cannon had a handle like that, since it didn't on the toy. I wonder where they got that from?

I have a bin of original Beast Wars bots with three BW2/Neo bots. Anybody interested in that stuff or should I just trade it in at the shop when I go to indy? Most of them are complete. I can do a detail list and pics if there's some real interest but I'd be wanting to sell it as a lot. There's a BW2 Lio Convoy and Galvatron in there, both 100% complete.

There were two Marvel hardcovers, Battle for Earth and The Autobots' Secret Weapon. Both open with this cool trippy (or nonsensical) space scene:  Battle for Earth is the one where Sparkplug is drawn looking like 'Bob' Dobbs:  Also at the end of that one the Autobots literally murder all of the Constructicons. https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Battle_for_Earth https://tfwiki.net/wiki/The_Autobots%27_Secret_Weapon

There's also the Spoiler Pack: https://www.walmart.com/ip/TRA-GEN-WFC-N-UNBOXING-3/234945305 Leader class, a Fossilizer, and six accessories. Word is that it'll be a Megatron redeco (T-Wrecks? A less neon purple version of him?) and the clear purple Paleotrex that was seen before. Edit: And what seems to be the first glimpse of Kingdom Galvatron. https://twitter.com/Daim_Choc/status/1371395329619267584?s=20 Keldroc fucked around with this message at 01:26 on Mar 16, 2021 |

Finally the chonky boy showed up. The alt-mode looks fantastic and while I wish he'd had a little more articulation like on the wrists and such it's still decent. Also, the transformation is really fun to tool around with. Great figure.
