Ah, cool. So still no Spike number. Does Kup get a new SS86 number?

Remember when the very idea of just one Arcee toy was a pipe-dream?

I was thinking just the other day how I was going to be fine passing on SS '86 Arcee since I had most of the Arcees anyway. Then I saw that picture. How wrong I was...

Those are useful pictures. I think I'm just going to stick with Legends Arcee and be done with it. The difference won't justify the price of a studio series deluxe.

And me on the flip side am actually getting a bit excited for this. ER Arcee was one of the worst figures ever made, and T30 is one of the ugliest.
She's better than ER, but that's not a difficult bar to pass, and she only barely passes it.
This new one actually ends up fairly decent.

The other day, my Studio Series Scourge, who was the Herald of Unicron in this narrative, was persuaded to give up his evil ways by the Power of Friendship, wielded successfully as it was by the the My Little Pony team, aided by Bumblebee and the Dinobots.
She won't be into playing like this for all that much longer.

Brawn and Ratchet? Yes! No Dinobots? Boo.

3 of these are expected repaints Brawn is another Minibot as deluxe update. I am conflicted on this as the Titans Return Legends Brawn is one of my favourite TFs ever and, armed with his Titanmaster cannon, is still a permanent resident on my desk. That leaves just Prowl from the shuttle crew to go in Studio Series 86. There's a Prowl on the 2023 Legacy List but we don't know *which* Prowl he is. Would they do 1984 Prowl in Legacy if there's a SS86 version coming? |

Maybe. Kingdom Cyclonus is effectively SS86. He definitely got bumped across for some reason.

Has anything 86 Movie been done in the main line since Kingdom's Cyclonus/Rodimus/Galvatron/Magnus effort?

Got Arcee, Sideways, and my new glasses today.
Arcee is a significant improvement over the last two.
She's not made of pure magic, like Kingdom Blackarachnia, and she's not gonna wow you like many other toys.
But she isn't pure garbage like ER, and she isn't awkward and ugly like T30.
If one were inclined to own all three molds, and all options were available to you, go Combiner Hunters or Chun Li for T30, Lifeline for ER, and this for Arcee.
Also, I CAN SEE AGAIN FOR THE FIRST TIME IN LIKE, SEVEN YEARS

They are not because I've made no secret of how much i hated the last two molds

I've realised why all these 'Sunbow Accurate' Ironhides always look off - its the colours. Cartoon Ironhide's body was mostly grey in robot mode and the toys are always red all over.
Of course I promised, so I won't end this by saying 'Now if they gave him his sled....'

At some point I'll have to compare this Starscream to the other one to see which is the one to keep, but he's still in the box. The chair however, well that's pride of place on the shelf. Toy of the year. I would love it if positive feedback on it meant Hasbro gave us other accessories. I'd buy a leader Ratchet off the new Ironhide mould if he came with a repair bed from the ark. A BAF teletraan-1 would be amazing.

That chair is honestly my favourite TF toy product of the last year.

There doesn't seem to be an 'explode' feature to that Ironhide. Or a 'shamefully and brutally written out' feature.
