The_Doctor posted:Were people really crying out for a new Inferno? I'm taking a pass. It's... Inferno. I've even already got Hot Spot and Pyra Magna. Buying the same mold again for a character I didn't even care much about in the first place doesn't appeal. (I will be jumping on the rest of the Terrorcons when they show up, so it's not like I'm ignoring the wave entirely.)

I was told that TFC Toys' Poseidon is back in stock. I feel if I buy it, Hasbro will definitely put out an updated version promptly two months after.

Gaebril posted:POTP is an easy pass for me... I only really need the Dinobots. Abominus too, but that's it. I ended up getting Dreadwind and Darkwing when they were 10% off, they are surprisingly good retools, very nice in hand. And the legends too, I got them but they don't count because I'm already completing the minibots anyway and BattleTrap is once in a lifetime. I'll get the girls when I can too, you still don't get that many fembots... But that's it. POTP is an easy pass. The only figures I'm not planning on getting are Inferno (because I've already got Pyra Magna and Hot Spot) and Optimus Primal (because kinda expensive). On a personal note, I wish they used the gaps in the last of Wave 4 so that I could finish off the Scavengers. Just need Spinister, Fulcrum and Crankcase. (Although it would possibly be a hard sell for Fulcrum to just turn into a bomb. I definitely want Spinister, though. I would even take YET ANOTHER ALPHA BRAVO retool.)

Captain Invictus posted:Okay, if you're willing to drop four times the price for an equivalent combiner, then sure. For his retail price he is impeccable. The sturdiness is basically unmatched, I had him perched on a semi-wobbly perch for about six months in a dynamic pose and he held it the entire time without falling over. What's more, I got him as a gift so super cheap. I've still been toying with tarting him up some.

SlothfulCobra posted:I've never really liked movie or Prime Bumblebees. The whole reason he was prominent enough to remember and use a feature character was because he was a little tiny robot that could plausibly interact with little tiny humans, and then the movies make him big and built like a gorilla for god knows why. Because Bay decided that the robot mode had to be proportional to vehicle mode. Mass displacement? In our giant robots from space movie? Laws, no.

Rhyno posted:The TF addicts group had a thread about fuhrman returning and it had 3000 upvotes. Yup. They want the comics to go back to the way they were when they still weren't buying them, I expect. I would have liked to have seen like anything else besides All Hail Megatron, so in that regard it would have been nice to keep Furman around.

I put down a preorder on that Predaking but I'm not sure if I'm gonna stick to it or not. It is weird how things will show up one place and not others. The only thing I had to order online (yet) was Elita-1 and Hun-Grrr.

Phy posted:Yeah, discussion of the actual comics has cooled off a lot since probably about Combiner Wars. I know that's where I started to lose interest. (Actually I'm pretty sure it started to lose most of the thread around Dark Cybertron) It is true that I really like MTMTE with the qualifier of 'except during the crossovers.' And the other series seemed...fine, I guess, but... eh? quote:Anyway apparently IDW is rebooting the entire line soon, I figure comics talk will pick back up again for a bit, mostly to gripe Without Roberts, which some of you might be happy about and that's fine, but it still probably tells us something. Maybe Rhyno's GEEWUN theory. Which is depressing enough to be true.

My first was Trailbreaker, picked up at K-Mart and I think they had all of that first wave. Why Trailbreaker? It is a mystery. You'd think it would have been Sideswipe or something, but no.
