I just wonder why the car is the way it is, at all.
It's just an ugly block that looks like a McDonald's happy meal toy.
It's not even like it's a compromise due to transformation, like TR Arcee's vehicle (which ended up looking better), because it has no correlation to the robot mode at all. They could have made it more accurate, and shapely.
Much as I don't like Floro Dery's designs, I always loved Arcee's car mode, and honestly wished for a toy of that, more than the robot.
As for Elita, where's the paint??? It's already inaccurate as Elita never transformed into a car. So they could at least paint up some of the details.

IIRC Elita transformed but was mostly obscured by Prime on screen (Sunbow).

Yeah but that certainly wasn't this car.

Having seen the series now it's made me wonder again about the next spoiler box. The one thing the cartoon does is faithfully use the toys, which means the next spoiler box character is going to be important to the plot, not just a random repaint. I'm sure there was a split second shot of Astrotrain during one of the fights in the cartoon, which I read as a teaser, and I can have a good guess why he'd be a spoiler for chapter 2. I still think it's him regardless of the transformation steps thing.

Nice. I thought that Megatron on Page 34 was from the RED mould for a minute, but it's not.

Seeing the Sunstreaker in there, and looking at Exhaust here, they are same base, aren't they?

They TF very similarly, but we don't think there's a single part in common

Interesting. Not quite sure if I'm impressed by that or not.

Loving my Netflix Magnus but seeing it in the plastic makes me wonder if they shouldn't have gone all in and made all the white grey? |

Wait for the inevitable W*NC Sunstreaker, and then buy the two of them together.

Smyths' website has the Wave 2 spoiler pack listed with a suggested release date of 1st-8th October. Is this date new..? |
