The unattainable dream.... Remember when Binaltech was perfect? MP10? Even Siege Optimus?
It never ends...

The Generations deluxe was a nightmare to find. I could never find one so gave up. So the chance of a new Warpath I might be able to get is of considerable interest to me. -Ralph Never came out here, was in the under produced last pre Movie 3 Generations wave in small numbers and then in the surprise post Movie 3 wave also in small numbers. I imported one which may or may not have walked out the factory early. It is a superb toy, one of the best Generations remakes. tmukhub.proboards.com/thread/5312/phils-generations-warpath-reviewThe Universe 2 Legends Tank is also very good, especially after you take a knife to it tmukhub.proboards.com/thread/2375/phils-universe-legends-wave-reviewsThe CW version Wanged Chung

But you must have the ultimate form of any of THE FIVE. But that's it though, isn't it, Pinwig. That's exactly it.
There IS no 'perfect', no 'ultimate'....Doesn't happen. The next line over, they change the scale, they change the esthetic. ALL CHANGE. Perfect CANNOT exist. It will never exist. Not in Transformers...

Core - the new Legends/Basic class So Legend becomes Micromaster becomes Core. This is all the $9.99 price point isn't it? So given they haven't gone back to using Legend, does that tell us Core is abitsmallerthanlegend class? The Core class name was in previous rumours so it appearing in listings is a bit of an uplift for them. tmukhub.proboards.com/post/416557/thread

I enjoyed CW Warpath as I couldn't get the Legends 2 or Gen Deluxe one. It's not as good but at least I could get one!

I liked that mould as the tiddly Megatron. I've got the Takara two pack of that one with Starscream. Very shiny.

Well, I really wasn’t expecting Warpath, so this’ll be interesting to see how they keep him to the all-important scale whilst also providing a tank mode that doesn’t end up looking ridiculous.
As far as Blackarachnia goes I’m hoping that they do a decent job of the mold and don’t just have her being another shellformer. Or worse, somehow being a repaint or Arcee. (No I don’t know how it’d work either, but this is Hasbro...)
The core class Prime really is the interesting one here. You could assume that they’re just making a smaller version of Prime to better interact with Titans, or something, in the same vein as the original Prime Cyberverse line. But then consider that Rattrap’s also in the line, and that one of the key play patterns from Prime Wars to now is that all sizes classes can interact in some way, and you do have to wonder what’s going on. Is the story going to be that the G1 cast land on a planet of giant creatures, a la Godzilla and King Kong, resulting in the Beast Wars cast towering over the G1 cast? If so, that’ll be an intriguing inversion that’ll upset a lot of people. Whatever the case, I’m looking forward to finding out what this turns out to be...

As long as the BW toys are consistent and correct within themselves, I don't particularly care how the G1 guys scale to them in hasbro's Headcanon. I don't have netflix or internet not reliant on phone data, so I won't get to see a cheaply made bad cartoon, either.

Post by Pinwig on Aug 21, 2020 8:20:17 GMT
This is quite an interesting situation really. Whereas the G1 updates we've had in the first two parts of this trilogy have been some way distant from their previous versions, like comparing the cars to their classics equivalents, there are some pretty strong Beast Wars figures from the T30 era that would still stand up as modern toys. I'm not saying don't do it, after all, some characters we get new versions of every five minutes, but if you think about T30 Rattrap, Waspinator, Rhinox, Legends Blackarachnia - those were good figures that probably don't need updating at the moment. Be interesting to see if they can be bettered.

That listing says it's a leader, so I guess it's a straight reissue.
It looks like the Wave 2 Netflix Prime is the Earthrise one without the trailer, so that could be an option. Probably have a decent paint job too.

And comes with a pee-coloured version of Soundbarrier! Pissramp! And yeah, if that Optimus Primal doesn't have at least three spring-loaded weapons that can pop out and then also fire missiles what's the point? I'm pretty certain that it won't be able to beat its chest. I guess we'll just have to be happy with an abundance of 5mm- sorry, C.O.M.B.A.T. C.O.L.I.N. ports...

I was going to say that can't be that long ago, but... Movie Hailfire had those you push, but spring loaded...? Animated, maybe?
I seem to remember the big Megatron maybe having one in his cannon?
