Likely something Hasbro are thinking on doing?!

[@lonewolf9578]

It’s funny that Hasbro listens to UK slang but can’t be bothered to make stuff more available here Also I’m hyped for Tarn, definitely the best looking figure out of evolution so far

[@cyranantone8430]

Remember? I'm getting scraphook and tarn

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Of course, and I think everyone is after those two.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Yeah, I think just about everyone is Thrilled with Tarn.

[@KateOfFate]

Hell, I’d even say the best looking figure of Legacy overall I will not take back what I said

[@Thomas_Name]

A bunch of Canadians trying to run into two brothers carrying knives was even more funm

[@acer3721]

All of the new Legacy reveals have been super exciting. One thing I'm hopeful to see based off the promo art is the Armada Prime that had a prototype shown a few years ago. And since Legacy is offering more Beast Wars characters maybe they'll offer up some Fuzors or Transmetals.

[@TransformersMCfan6]

Yes! I’ve been wanting a transmetal Megatron, my favorite design for Beast Wars Megatron

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Yeah, I knew they were lying when they said that Prime Prototype wasn't a real thing. Like why would you mold the Fists into the feet if it was just meant to look like something you could maybe make, if you actually designed it.

[@estebanalvarez8777]

Definitely hoping that Armada Prime is commander class so we can have him combine with his trailer and maybe come with a minicon or more than one minicon for the other armada characters

[@xavi5876]

Also this isn’t in the video, but since Lugnut won the Best Character in Transformers Animated Poll, he’s probably getting a new figure soon (probably in 3rd part of Legacy) FOR THE GLORY OF MEGATRON

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Indeed he did, so hopefully he gets a new figure soon.

[@Cent_Reviews]

The voyagers are easily the highlight for this wave for me, as a huge fan of both Lio Convoy and Tarn is practically a dream come true to have them in the year’s opening wave

[@logancheese4208]

Too bad lio convoy looks like he came out of a family guy sketch...

[@boobs_n_bots]

Lio Convoy beating a combiner 1 on 1 in BW2 was bad ass AF.

[@PlatinumKnight-je3vy]

Legacy’s just generally made the voyagers the most solid and coolest figures in the line period. Tarn looks like a nearly flawless leader class with hardly any hollowness and Leo Prime looks better than the masterpiece, overall Hasbro are doing a great job on the voyager front.

[@logancheese4208]

@@PlatinumKnight-je3vy Leo convoy looks better than the masterpiece?? Have you even looked at its face?? It looks like complete shit lol

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Everyone is so Thrilled about Tarn, I don't think I've ever seen so many people agree on what the Stand out of the wave will be.

[@jinxtheunluckypony]

Tarn is such a beautiful figure, I can’t wait to get one. I’m usually the type of person who drags her feet when buying new figures since I’m afraid to buy something I don’t know I’ll like but this is the exception. The second I see a Tarn I’m buying him.

[@PlatinumKnight-je3vy]

Don’t blame you, he looks like a really good voyager.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

You know after all this time, I probably should have figured you were a girl, but I am immensely dumb. Yeah, Tarn is Obviously going to be good, unless there are serious breakage issues with him. No need to wait.

[@jinxtheunluckypony]

@@PerspectiveEnd I don’t think I’ve ever mentioned my gender so I don’t blame you for not guessing it. Honestly, I’m mostly just surprised that you realize how long I’ve been commenting. I always figured I’d fade into the background since I pretty much just comment on whatever the videos are about. I know you reference frequent viewers but I imagined they did more to stand out.

[@kociarzultimate384]

Honestly, figures of Lio Convoy look good when shoulders are actually on shoulders, as that head is more original for kibble usage and at least fromt paws has blades extending from underside so they work as some form of claw weapons

I’m literally coming back to these videos because I genuinely love seeing him react to these reveals because it’s justice and fun

[@PerspectiveEnd]

That's very interesting, because I never really think of these as videos people would care to see twice. I Kind of view them as Magazines, periodicals that don't have much value after a month since time has moved on.

[@geo-fry6372]

I’m extremely excited for Hot Shot, Lio Convoy, and Tarn. Tarn is just epic, not much else to say about him. Hot Shot is a character I quite liked in Armada, and this might be his first decent figure, so that’s cool. And Lio Convoy, for some reason, is one of my favorite transformer designs ever. Don’t know why, but he is. His figure looks really solid, other than the hilariously bad lion face.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Is something wrong with the Universe Hotshot? Like I said I can't see anything but regular prime in furry boots with Lio.

[@geo-fry6372]

@@PerspectiveEnd universe Hot Shot has very bad shoulders, they clash with other parts of the figure constantly

[@rubiconprime1429]

Gotta love how Galaxy Shuttle is not only lacking in terms of a name, but also a personality. According to TFWiki, his bio is “he is the shuttle”. THAT’S IT. This man is a blank slate of a character. He could be ANYTHING.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

So he Shall be Jazz now.

[@carolynwood5574]

@@PerspectiveEnd As Megatron would say, “Yessss…”

[@m0stlyGh0sty]

As someone who has professed Breakdown to be their favorite Stunticon, I feel like he got a bit shafted for my liking. I'm still gonna pick it up, but the fact that he isn't the same alt mode as Sideswipe bugs me. Tarn and Scraphook look great, and I'm also really interested in the Needlenose for some reason, despite not even knowing who the character is outside of the VS pack that never happened.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Yeah, absolutely, Like Wildrider sucks bad enough, but now it doesn't even get the right altmode.

[@dootdadoot2278]

I'm excited for everything in this first wave, especially lio convoy and galaxy shuttle because I love the Japanese side of transformers. I'm loving the armada love coming this year with hot shot and the armada prime in the poster too. Also the designer for the core dinobots, Evan Brooks, hinted at a possible reuse of the team, and with all the victory love going around due to the release of victory saber soon, most people believe that the dinobots will be used as pretools for the dinoking team. I adore that combiner team so much so I'm very excited to get that when they comes out.

[@boobs_n_bots]

Only JP Transformers so far I seen is BW 2 & Neo + the sub of Armada.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Yeah that is a rumor the TF Podcast is real happy to espouse right now. It makes some sense, but I don't think it can be taken as a given at this point.

[@sideways198]

The photographer sure loves that one walking pose

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Indeed he does.

[@ZacTFF]

I can’t wait for these releases! They all look so goooooooood!

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Most of them do at least.

[@MrFedoraFilm]

The Legacy Evolution reveals are awesome. Along with other reveals from Shattered Glass and Velocitron. -Core Class Soundblaster looks cool. Half of me thought that he would have the Mercenary badge, or the Decepticon badge. Either way, he looks cool. Like for the tape deck chest is purple and that he'll come with a yellow Buzzsaw cassette tape. I hope this will lead to a voyager class cassette player Soundblaster down the line. -Shattered Glass Sir Soundwave looks awesome. Hasbro has done a great job with the white and blue repaint and remolded head, so Soundwave has his green bandana. Like the Siege Laserbeak and Ravage repaint as well. -Stunticon Breakdown is cool. I don't mind that he's a reuse of the Wild Rider mold. But the gun and spoiler to be a weapon, I don't praise it, it's both lazy and suck. I would rather have the spoiler be part of his legs and spilt when he transforms. And for him to have two guns, like the other car Stunticons. And cool that his packaging is still Legacy and not Evolution. -Velocitron Speedia 500 wave 2, Galaxy Shuttle. The name isn't that creative if I'm being honest. Sounds more of what he is, than his actual name. But I like how Galaxy Shuttle looks. And it's cool that the Victory Universe is getting some representation. I do hope that we get a G1 toy color Astrotrain from the Siege/Earthrise mold somewhere in the Legacy line. -Targetmaster Needlenose. He loses two fan votes back in the War for Cybertron trilogy in Siege and Earthrise, so I'm stoke that he's finally getting a new figure. But I do like your idea, of how the wing backpack should have open up so the nose cone could fold into his torso. To have a better transformation and look better. And he comes with his little Targetmasters, Sunbeam and Zigzag, cool. -Junkion Scraphook is awesome. First off, his design looks great. Secondly, he's a weaponizer that doesn't partsform to transform. Love that. Wish that something back in the WFC Trilogy. -Core Class Sludge and Slag. First off, I agree with your rant about Slag's name. Secondly, it's a pass for me. As I already have the Volcanicus combiner. But I like what Hasbro is doing with the core class Dinobots. Having six members to make Volcanicus. As the theory goes, this will be remolded as the Dinoforce combiner Dinoking, from the Japanese side of Transformers. -Armada Universe Hot Shot is cool. I remember growing watching Armada. Hot Shot was my Bumblebee. And Legacy Evolution as done an awesome job with him. But I do agree with his back legs, wish it was done another way. As it looks like the windshields prevent leg bend. I do wish he came with his minicon helicopter partner Jolt though. -Beast Wars ll Leo Prime. Honestly don't have much to say. His robot mode looks cool, and it said that his chest can open up to have an energon matrix. Will get this anyways to go along with Maximal Skywarp and Grimlock to face God Neptune. -IDW Universe Tarn is awesome. From Decepticon mask to toes, Tarn looks like he was pull straight out of the IDW comics. Sure his mask doesn't come off, but it's fine with me. Tank mode looks great, I do wish he was a leader class instead of voyager, as he looks like he should be taller. A must have in my book.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Breakdown just doesn't have the right altmode, and yeah the Spoiler is super lazy, like how did they not just make that part of his transformation naturally. Yeah his name is too descriptive, it sounds like a product listing rather than a characters name. I think this is probably the Needle Nose that was intended to come out in those two fan votes. They probably had him laying around are really wanted to use him, but no one would vote for it. This is probably going to be the Best Weaponizer. Yeah I don't see these dinobots being hot sellers, they look real crappy and lame. And yes EVERYONE agrees Slug is stupid. I was always confused as to weather or not Hotshot was bumblebee growing up. Like he fit that same role, was the right colors for the most part, he was so weird to me. He just looks so silly to me those legs kill me. Everyone wants Tarn. They better make enough.

[@rubiconprime1429]

I hope that if they have that Mad Max looking Junkion muscle car from the poster be an actual figure, that they have a repaint of it as an animated-esc Lockdown. It would still work with the Junkion theme since Lockdown was known for swapping out his body parts. If it’s a generation selects or something they could even include additional arm and leg parts to make the robot mode more reminiscent of the animated design while still having all the symmetrical parts for the alt-mode. That shit would sell like hot cakes Edit: I only might pick up the dinobot combiner if they do them as the dinoforce or whatever that pretender combiner team was called.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Well I think what that was was Scrap hook reconfigured.

[@APlatypus]

Soundblaster didn’t originate from WFC, he first appeared in The Headmasters, making his English debut in Cyberverse.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I know where he Originated, but he was Stupid in the Head Masters. Being a Separate somewhat crazy character with an Inferiority complex, made him way more interesting.

[@APlatypus]

@@PerspectiveEnd Yeah, that’s fair. Actually it was hilarious Tbh.

[@PlatinumKnight-je3vy]

Hasbro wanted to reference Head Masters by giving him a purple window, a cool little detail.

[@dkkanofkash8798]

This was the first Transformers wave in a long time when I love EVERY SINGLE ONE of the new reveals. I look forward to owning all of these figures. Especially Needlenose, Scraphook, Hot Shot, and Tarn.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I was more about Siege's wave 1 and Kingdom's, but this does look really good.

[@stiglapoint5672]

THE FACT I’M GETTING THE LEADER OF THE DJD IN TOY FORM I CANNOT WAIT

I know you did not know, aren’t I considerate?

[@ignitedmotion5807]

Now where’s the legacy reveal video already!

[@zacharyzwickl5860]

Although disappointed in Breakdown I am not surprised that one of the Stunticons is recolor with some remolding. It makes me wonder with Breakdown and Wildrider being recolors is something that Hasbro will say something like " We did it that way to make a shortcut to te allocate design money for Moter Master" and the people praising the weapon is in denial since they most likely pre-order him before his revealed.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I wouldn't be surprised if they did pull that yes. They still could have done a better job.

[@PlatinumKnight-je3vy]

It’s not really an excuse for Hasbro to not do cartoon accuracy because of cost concerns, they’ve done it in the past with figures and some get treated well when some don’t. Overall they could’ve just went the extra mile and made him a Lambo.

[@Kuroketsu]

Breakdown might as well be renamed Letdown. He's not just a retool of Wildrider, he's barely a retool. 2/3 of the car are the same, and it actually makes it look weird because it throws the proportions off. At the least I could've gotten by with some details on the side windows and a change to the headlights. I don't need a completely different figure to be happy, but a photo negative just ain't cutting it

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Yeah, he's not a Lambo any more. People were having a Fit wanting Wildrider to have the right altmode, and now Breakdown doesn't get his.

[@PlatinumKnight-je3vy]

Breakdown’s now officially the most disappointing Stunticon of Legacy, the other four are definitely much better in design than he is despite him and Wildrider sharing a mould. I’ve got to say though that even though he’s not a Lamborghini I still dig his robot mode, even when I’ve just criticised it. He’s still a clear pick up me still.

[@Storm-fl3mp]

This is the most excited I've been for a wave so far. Legacy Evolution is shaping to be a great toyline imo. Great video.

[@PlatinumKnight-je3vy]

I’m really eager to see wave 2 and onwards now!

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Thank you very much. I for sure was more Excited for Siege, and Kingdom, but this does still look excellent.

[@Pterodactyll]

Im only now realizing scraphooks a weaponizer, thats awesome

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Yeah, it's a really cool concept.

You are welcome.

[@alexholker1309]

Scraphook and Tarn are the highlights, along with the Core Soundwave rerelease. I'm not sure how I'd "fix" Leo Convoy, but I'm fairly certain it would make the toy a less accurate depiction of the original character.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Yeah, I'd go for less accuracy as well. Get rid of those stupid elbow arms.

[@hiimnameless5520]

As someone who is in the UK and a father who only remembers the g1 continuity I can say slag being slug is something we don't care about but my father does always look scared for his dear life when he says slag

[@FyreCat3454]

I wonder if we'll ever get core class Constructicons that combine into Devastator; in a similar fashion to the upcoming Dinobots. Devastator seems quite under-represented despite being such an iconic character.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I mean the Original G1 Constructicons were about Core Class Scale.

[@FyreCat3454]

@@PerspectiveEnd Yeah. The Combiner Wars Titan Class Devastator was OK, but the Constructicons themselves were a bit too big. Out of the reveals I'll probably get Core Soundblaster since I missed the Kingdom Soundwave. I also like the G1 JP Headmasters show he appeared in.

[@KingCycl0ps]

Leo prime's lion face is just durpy enough to make me smile whenever I see it. It's bad, but just enough for me to kinda love it.

[@PlatinumKnight-je3vy]

His face needed what Tarantulas needed in Legacy, more show accurate details in it.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

It is truly haunting.

[@txoptimusbob]

Most people don’t realize Tarn has wheelie-hands in vehicle mode

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I had no idea my self.

[@KateOfFate]

Something people are misunderstanding about Needlenose, he’s clearly based on the F-16XL, which actually has larger wings that just sit more flesh with the rest of the plane. I mean, just look up an image of the F-16XL and look at his alt mode. His wings really aren’t as bad as people are saying when you look at it like that

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Problem is they are sitting on a bed of kibble which destroys their aerodynamic nature.

[@lucastheprime787]

I CALLED IT On the 86 Wreckgar video I commented that the Junkion 1 in the Legacy listings might be a weaponizer in response to PE wanting a Junkion Weaponizer. Surprisingly it actually happened.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I think we both called it in a way.

[@Cinder_the_Art_Gal8144]

I swear after Legacy's Stronger Clear plastic "Gimmick" we BETTER get a toy line WITHOUT DISCOLORING PLASTIC with that stronger clear plastic from legacy

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Yeah hopefully none if this is prone to self destruction.

[@timeman7753]

I feel comfortable saying that Scraphook is what I wanted from Kingdom Waspinator, but in the form of a mad max combination between Ironhide and Tow Mater instead of the green bee boy

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I feel you on that.

[@zacharyzwickl5860]

The Shattered Glass Soundwave colors look cool and all, but that green sweatband makes him look like a dad that has finally started jogging to work off the holiday season fat he gained months ago.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

It's supposed to make him look like an 80s dancer.

[@fratersanguinous9243]

The yellowing is caused by them mixing bromine into the PLA, bromine is commonly used as a flame retardant. The yellowing occurs when the bromine in the plastic bonds with oxygen forming bromium dioxide. Unfortunate, but interesting. Just wish my Tigertron wasn't piss yellow.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Why the Fuck are the mixing a fire retardant into their plastics.

[@InfinityBlock192]

8:03 you know it's bad when Perspective's voice begins to crack

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I wouldn't call that a voice crack. I was trying to hit a weird note there.

[@lucastheprime787]

I'm worried hat Tarn might be the cosmos of this year, everyone wants him, and I mean EVERYONE. If I manage to get him, its gonna be a miracle.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Oh yeah, Hasbro is going to neeeeeed to make enough.

[@Kuroketsu]

I actually saw Clampdown in two different Walmarts today, so here's hoping for a little relief on the Cosmos for people at any rate

[@0pt1tr0nD27]

See the cool thing about tarn is even though it seems like they blew half the budget on paint and sculpt it’s actually supposed to be 7” tall and a voyager

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Yeah, thats the other thing, they didn't skimp on the size or anything.

[@NebLleb]

The name "Slag" refers to molten metal, aka. Slag. However, as a British guy, even I can say that "Slag" also means the act of sex over here. Even I don't geddit.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Doesn't Slag mean Whore not sex? And yeah, that's the thing, even British people don't care. So why are we trying to change it.

[@dogrobot9933]

Scraphook looks to be the out of nowhere darling of the line. Every comment you made about Hot Shot was on point. As a non-US viewer your Slag rant gave me life and "Jazztrotrain" was the best nickname of your proposed two for Galaxy Shuttle (Who does look more like Jazz the more you stare at him).

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Are you from the UK, or just somewhere else that is irritated at the UK? And yes Scraphook is the figure that just came in like a Wrecking ball that no one saw coming.

[@dogrobot9933]

I'm from Ireland. We do share a lot of slang talk with the UK, though I'm sure any irritations perceived between the 2 countries is more like banter between friendly neighbours. I prefer Slag's original name since it was chosen with some meaning when the designers had to name a brutish metal dinosaur robot who was a member of a gang of brutish metal dinosaur robot misfits.

[@ThatBigChillSimp]

For sluge the left one seems to be the way they are working due to the ball socket being visible

[@PerspectiveEnd]

This would make sense, but then again nothing about the way it looks makes sense, and what is that box on the side if not part of the joint?

[@Starshine13131]

1. Soundblaster: He does not have the Mercenary badge because they are trying to be accurate to the Headmasters anime. Thats why his chest is purple not red, unlike his 2 Siege figures 2. Brakedown: The worst part of him is that he is designed not to partsform. There is a port on both legs. All you have to do is take a utility knife and cut it in half. The same thing happened with SS86 Ironhide. The hipskirt is designed to seprate but doesnt. I can send you a tutorial if you want. 3. Galaxy Shuttle. Hello there VicspectiveEnd. There will be a fun fact about him later in the comment. Itll make sense soon 4. Needlenlse: Yes, his transformation is mostly likely simple due to including both targetmasters. Wave distribution and all that too. If you want more info I can link that to you. 5. Scraphook: His vehicle mode can also split in half to combine with other Junkions in legacy to make crazy Mad Max vehicles 6. That England rant is comedy gold. Good to have ranty Perspective back. It felt like he went away but heres a classic to bring him back 7. Volcanicus: You know what time it is. Transformers Lore with Ashla! Go! Volcanicus is now a 6 man team. Who is the 6th dinobot you might ask? IDW Skar. What other combiner is made out of 6 dinosaurs? Victory Dinoking. His chest is made out of the triceratops and (insert sludge dino here). The sixth member turns into (spiky dino name here). Skars beast mode was never shown. These are just Dinoking pretools. Legacy Dinoking would be perfectly on scale with Galxaxy Shuttle. (Told ya it'd come back.) My man Galaxy Shuttle was combiner sized. Also, Hasbro has hinted at retooling the dinobots into dinoking in at least 1 interview. 8. Hot Shot: fun fact. Each legacy Unicron Trilogy figure has gotten a new mould 9. Lio Convoy: One of my favorite Beast Wars charachters. Right up there next to Blackarachnia and Airazor. (Top 3 BW charachters) 10. Brakedown 2: He was supposed to be part of Legacy Wave 4 along with ER Wheeljack, Kingdom Cheetor, and Legacy Twincast. Twincast has been moved back to Legacy Wave 3 (I think, dont quote me on that). Cheetor and Wheeljack are rumored to still be coming out but nothing concrete. Sorry for the essay. Had a lot to say. Also, your doing a good job at appearing more positive. I know you. You like the figures. It just doesnt come out that way in the videos recently. It came out really good this time!

[@PerspectiveEnd]

But the Siege version also didn't have the Faction Badge he should, so we have no good representation of the only interesting version of this character, as the Head masters one is just REGULAR Soundwave in black. Yeah that's the thing, it would have been so easy to not have this partsform it's moronic. Vicspeciveded? Then the Target Masters can burn in hell. I am aware of what Scraphook can do, I've been planning on it ever since I had the idea originally. It has been a while since I ranted about something. Feels good. Yeah yeah yeah, everyone else said the same thing. I had noticed that yes. You disgust me. Why are we Talking about Breakdown 2? And where is Tarn? But its so fun to be Negative.

[@zacharyzwickl5860]

I am sure the Needlenose is one of those figures Hasbro had made and ready for some st lest two years but "couldn't fit him anywhere" in the regular toy lines until now.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

He does look like an older design who's been dusted off.

[@PlatinumKnight-je3vy]

He’s that one figure in each TF line which gets the “short end of the stick” so to say, him having his entire jet mode on his back screams Combiner Wars Silverbolt!

[@zacharyzwickl5860]

Leo Convoy in robot mode looks cool, but I think he should be a bigger size class for him to work. That droopy lion face makes me feel like the alt mode was secondary when designed.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I don't think he needs a higher size class, I don't think there's any way it could ever be good.

[@r.p.4531]

Couple thoughts. Breakdown: that boomerang means he must head into Australian wilderness and kill a giant boar per the B-movie Razorback.

some things to say so here it goes. Core soundblaster: sure why not shattered glass soundwave: I’m just glad that the Netflix mold isn’t being held hostage by Walmart anymore. Also I do like his colors Breakdown: disappointed in him. Not in the robot mode but his alt mode. Was hoping they remold wildrider Ferrari 308 to look even a little bit like a countach. Also his sword, a child sword is more menacing than that Galaxy Shuttle: you think that name is bad, wait til you hear Shuttle Robo (not joking, he was called like that in episode 2 when he was in robot mode). Anyways, he looks good and I need him Needlenose: at least he’s here. Gives me a reason to finally pick up Tracks, so I can have both display them together Scraphook: everything is a solid yes Core slag and sludge: wasn’t interested in them until seeing that they’ll form volcanicus. If the dinoking rumors are true, then yes please. Hot shot: Definitely want to pick him up, but yeah a bit concerned about his posability when jt come to his legs Lio Convoy: liking what I’m seeing except the lion face. I don’t normal bitch on realistic beast modes, but I’m gonna be bitching on his face because it’s that stupid Tarn: tarn tarn tarn tarn tarn, I need fucking tarn Also while not in the vid, just want to say my thoughts on the 3 other velocitron figures. Crasher and g2 dragstrip are cool (tho surprised g2 dragstrip was here. I thought the g2 stunticons would be a selects release like with the previous g2 repaints). As for toy colored hot rod: no. Was hoping they would do what they did with blurr and retool him into idw rodimus in some way, but instead colors that aren’t as appealing as his ss86 version And the poster. Oh boy hell yes armada optimus. Crosscut and the rest of the junkions too. Also hope you enjoy your camping trip on Friday

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Yeah it's cool that they some how wrestled it away from walmart. Shuttle Robo is even worse, yes. Volcanicus is a cool idea, just strange. Everyone needs Tarn, that's obviously the winner of this entire line. I forgot about the other Velocitron figures. And yeah the poster has some cool little teases. And thank you.

[@barzalonerboyy]

And I’m back too! (Crickets) Anyways, here’s my thoughts: Soundblaster: I gave the Core Soundwave to a friend last year for her birthday, and she really enjoyed it. So going off of her account and yours, it’s a good figure. But I don’t really know. I collect in Deluxe/Voyager scale and don’t really collect Cores unless they fit that scale, like Rattrap or the Pretenders. Cool how he’s based on the Headmasters anime, but I’m sticking with my Voyager Mercenary SB. (I wish he was in the Netflix show more. He was so cool.) And speaking of Voyagers, Shattered Glass Soundwave: I need this. It looks awesome, and it gives me a chance to experience the Netflix Soundwave mold for the first time. It’s a win-win. Jazztrotrain: I had money on this either being Cryotek or a Quintesson Overcharge. Or I wish I did. (I need friends.) Anyways, this guy is a nothing character to me, and I’m not really interested in him. Nor am I interested in the rest of Velocitron wave 2. I have a Hot Rod and Drag Strip already, and Crasher is another nothing character I don’t know that well. So, thanks, but no thanks. Slag and Sludge: I had no idea that Michigan was the size of the whole UK. I should learn more about my own home state at some time. Anyways, the reason Slag and Sludge are the torso for the combined mode is because they’re making a Victory Dinoking from these molds, which I suspect they’re gonna be making into a Monstructor afterwards. Which is cool, but I don’t know. Monstructor was huge in the IDW1 comics, towering over the Scramble City Combiners and reaching Devastator and Omega’s heights. So, cool idea, but not the Monstructor I’d want personally. Needlenose: I know how bad this looks, but I still feel vindicated. Needlenose lost two consecutive fan votes, and everyone in those got made or is getting made soon. So getting a Needlenose after all this time feels cathartic to me. Although yeah, those Targetmasters are pretty terrible. Scraphook: I’m never suspected the Junkions to be the next army-builder, but I’m not complaining. I’d probably display him in alt mode if I got him. The Mad Max aesthetic is too cool. Breakdown: He’s aight. I get why people are mad that he’s a retool, but I’m just gonna use him as a leg anyways, so I’m not that mad about it personally. But the spoiler axe is kinda dumb, I won’t lie to you there. Hot Shot: I may pass on this. I like the design of Armada Hot Shot, but I kinda like the IDW2 version more. Plus, I haven’t really seen enough of Armada to have affinity for the character. I could say the same for Armada Starscream, but Screamer did look like that in Dark Cybertron and the Windblade series, so it’s got that going (although Hot Shot was in the Windblade series now that I think about it). I’m considering picking up the Siege one instead. Leo Prime: I get your complaints with the lion arms, but they were there in the show, and they serve as a gimmick for the figure, so I’m not that mad. I like his realistic lion mode, and I think he’s a pretty good interpretation of the best character of Japanese Beast Wars in robot mode. I can’t wait to display him fighting God Neptune. (Note to self: source a Takara Selects God Neptune) Tarn: Yes. Need I say more? Overall, the line looks promising so far. I can’t wait for the Ramjet and Dirge refreshes in wave 2, though. That’s gonna be the real shit.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Welcome back too. Sometimes it's nice to just have a little figure you can have on your desk. The Netflix Soundwave isn't very good, but this looks like the best possible use of it. Why would Cryotech make sense in Velocitron? Michigan is 2000 Square miles bigger, it's barely anything. I've heard that theory but there is no guarntee of it yet, just speculation . Needle noes looks like something they've had ready for years and are only releasing it now. I thought they'd be army builders back in 86 but now here they are in legacy. To be fair yea, I just wish there was something that made me want to have him as a figure on it's own, that's what makes the best combiners. I've not seen IDW 2 Hotshot? I'll have to check that out. I liked the IDW 1 version of him. Yeah but they are so ugly and stupid looking, and they were only there in the show because they were also on the toy. No there is nothing more you need to say.
