My Gosh!! Mike! I think 🤔 I've never seen you miss a single news week!! God Bless you and family ❤

[@dziadeck47]

MS just revealed a new Soundwave will follow the casettes. Its MS-B27S this time. I guess S goes for silver, looks brighter than the A one.

[@BlackArroToons]

Some cool preview figures and items. Garfield looks good from the comics and animated cartoon show. Thanks.

[@jamievaughn1485]

My dream now is to also get a Healthcliff to match this Garfield.

[@tydiriumhanger1320]

They are making some great looking figures from smaller 80s properties

The Commander Class Prime looks like a mini MP-44 & I will be getting it although I don't really collect Mainline anymore...if we get a Commander Class Megs I'll be in on that as well...also can't wait for the TA Silverbolt

[@Optimus7591]

I am 100% in on that commander Optimus, he looks absolutely amazing and will go very well with my ultra magnus

[@Wayo.]

Yup that DA-82C is from the bad guys for Diaclone. The Waruder. They more biological style than mechanical.

[@kirbymarchbarcena]

The disproportionate torso and visible joints gap of that Batman '66 looks awful IMO despite the increased articulations. On the other hand, the Mezco Casey Jones had its clothing hide the chest gap making it look far better.

[@RJackson300]

I think a good way to express the attraction to drama is (my instance for example with viper island). I am not giong to voice my opinion but i will say that i felt a certain way. I believe the attraction starts with justification. I am now curious if others feel the same way. Or feel different. Strong opinions usually lead to the drama we see once someone ethically oversteps. But now I'm invested and thers a sense of commitment that draws you back. And fulfillment, what is the outcome, was i right? Am i wrong for feeling the way i do. Etc.

[@davidpyott3710]

Conan and Garfield/Odie look good

[@stevecriscione1567]

I looked for more info on that Reborn Voltron and found it's 16in and Bombusbee has a preorder price of $190 before shipping. I saw other pricing at just under $300 as well. For something different and big enough to pair with Blitzway, I'm in! The effects and lighting are cool, especially that base effect. Looks like the shaft that the pilots drop through to get to their lions! I preordered so we'll see where this goes. Also, separately, I'm no fan of power Rangers, but I through down a preorder for the big Gilgal Toys Megazord because it looks like something that would display we'll with Voltron. Still waiting to hear if preorder numbers are good enough to send it to production though.

[@spargotee]

Thank you

[@FracturedReality777]

Commander class Optimus might be like Commander Magnus, limited production run. So FOMO time.

[@jjsheets330]

I ordered those MS cassettes and made sure I used TH.

[@tydiriumhanger1320]

I appreciate it and you will enjoy them

[@rziggie9754]

Maketoys made the completely green seeker which looks like the cartoon g1 rainmaker, they should make the other 2 rainmakers in those bright cartoon colours, then we would have the first cartoon accurate rainmkers masterpiece size.

[@josephmonroy3865]

💯 agree. I would love maketoys to do the rainmakers. Then I'd have representation for all the seekers molds.

[@tydiriumhanger1320]

I figured by now they made so many colors they have done it but it only makes sense for them to do them all

[@alkiviadesgeorgakis209]

Backed the cantina... and the only place I have to put it is my @@.... 😂 it's a unique item .. so episode 4 done , episode 6 done what about 5? Hoth? That would be awesome and with AT AT along...

I'm out. I planned to back a base and deluxe, but I have a Sailbarge still in the shipper and 2 jabba's palace to go with 2 Jabbas coming next month. I don't have the $1k to spare anymore with this clown show. Haven't bought anything Disney in a year except a silver 3po with a server tray and cup from the Disney store.

[@tydiriumhanger1320]

It is getting harder and harder to back these for me these days

[@christopherbee8800]

So I'm figuring MPG just stands for Master Piece Generations? Hasbro is just going to milk recolors with a few retools? Just a few new pieces.

the Technodrome is smaller...but isn't it cheaper? i have NEVER had this.

[@tydiriumhanger1320]

$80 is a good price as many say the original was $50 in 1990

[@Scotty-Z70]

@@tydiriumhanger1320 $50? Wow! No wonder I don’t know anyone that had it back then

[@lareh5501]

22:00 looks like a wired cape... but will it have a large glass of fresh orange juice? 😊

[@tydiriumhanger1320]

HA I have not seen the accessories yet

[@SmokeForPants]

The Technodrome being 1.5" shorter is 10% smaller in ONE dimension. In THREE dimensions, it is 27% smaller (0.9^3 = 0.729), which is a big deal. Saying it's only 10% smaller is misleading. If you put this new one next to the original, the difference would be very apparent.

[@Scotty-Z70]

i always tell people that going back to 3.75 vs 6 means i can put 3x as many figures in the same space. [3/2]^3=27/8=3.375. is it worth the $79? i have NEVER owned the original. I had the sewer playset until i moved and sold it.sigh. but i told myself that i'll just lego build a world for the amazing Mega Bloks TMNT figures.

[@Destro-zw9ig]

So in other words, the Technodrome is going to Ross🎉🎉😁🎊

[@Scotty-Z70]

@@Destro-zw9ig can’t wait to get it for $12.99!

[@lareh5501]

Whoa, did you actually calculate (0.9)³?? Well, that's misleading as that math is not mathing. 😅 I wrote a TL/DR explanation explaining why that 0.9^3, or 0.9³ portion of your statement was wrong, as well as the inaccuracies of the 0.729 answer I assumed you pulled from someone comparing the differences in *_volumes for spheres_* that were 13.5" vs 15" in diameter; but took that portion out from here as I'm not sure people in these comments are that concerned with accurately reflecting mathematical calculations and the inferences that can be made from them. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@tydiriumhanger1320]

I was setting everyone up for some "that's what she said" jokes but a math discussion is way more fun! LOL
