The Buzzworthy line for Target has some real dogs, & some of their stores/supply chain can't stock their stores/TF sections well enough to minimize the impact of shelf/peg-warming duds. It's weird being someone that fits the ideal customer [in some aspects] for the Autobots Unite 5-pack; I have a 5-year old nephew with none of the 5, as I've been wary of giving* him any of the classic lineup with trans-plastic for him to wear out & break, & he won't mind the simplistic animation decos. While I personally find it blatantly anti-consumer to bundle an updated Hound & repainted Sunstreaker to "force" sales of the bundle, unless they announce PR's of them as solo releases; preferably as repaints of Hound [in toy deco] & Sunstreaker [with clear windows & a more consistent yellow paint-job with a metallic silver air scoop.]. Maybe in 2025 or 2026--got monetize those molds with endless paint decos/palette swaps! *parents/uncles/relatives buying their kids toys [instead of video games] is always Hasbro's preferred market to more particular adult collectors [that talk sh!t online/give more critical feedback, & some of whom tend to scalp under-produced releases like Cosmos, or try to, & take popular releases out of circulation, hence the upcoming A-line focusing on the more popular characters associated with the brand, vs. nobodies like Detritus or TF wiki articles like the Mayhem Attack Squad.] You get more sales of garbage like Kingdom Tracks to low-information buyers

Breakdown you know the bulkhead was only chosen because his bot mode had a similar silhouette to breakdown in bot mode. By the way the Minotaur looks to have the solus Prime symbol on its head. And giving the reported leaks for 2025 is all about the 13 Primes, sounds like foreshadowing. The 5 pack I think think is a mix bag because of the inclusion of Wheeljack n Jazz. The former has released multiple times and jazz is still to similar the SS version. I think a better fix would to be cartoon color version of the Netflix Bumblebee for this multipack instead. Also why Wheeljack makes less sense to be in the multi-pack is because we are getting the origins figure soon.

Barrage and Chop Shop are pretty good. Could have been better, and there are definite opportunities for upgrade kits here. Don't like Windsweeper at all.

Don't like Prime Breakdown having the exact same alt mode as Bulkhead. The mould works OK for him, but it's not really good.
