They've not used that gimmick on toys larger than deluxe before You forget the garbage truck junkion. I did, thank you!

Is Ramhorn the only non redone 86 toy? Or do we count his Titanmaster as "good enough" even though there's no tape mode? (The FoC Datadisc definitely isn't good enough!) You're right, it is indeed not good enough. It is *the best*. It's *VERY* good, but it's not a Tape Ramhorn

Ramhorn can be more than a tape.

Ramhorn can be more than a tape. -Ralph Indeed. He can also be a robot rhino! He is in fact a robot in disguise. There's more, much more than meets your eye when you simply see just tape Ramhorn.

He's a rhino, a little man, a head, a tank and a weird gun thing! A tape is a downgrade after all that.

Possibly. But if you want a Ramhorn to fit in Blaster, as Ramhorn traditionally does, the Titanmaster is not up to the job.
I reiterate: I like the Titanmaster Ramhorn

He will 100% be a Armada Red Alert repaint. There's another version of him that's a near 1:1 match for Legacy Bulkhead. But between Heatwave being a hood match for a Bulkhead retool, and the G1 version of Flatline being a great match for Red Alert, I seriously doubt there'll be two retail released Bulkhead retools in the same year. Flatline's a Leader, Red Alert a Voyager. You are mistaken, my good sir!

Ramhorn can choose not to enter Blaster if he wishes.

Titanmaster Ramhorn however can rip off Blaster's head and steer him around like Racacoonie

Why would Ramhorn want Blaster's head??

Tra Gen Studio series Deluxe 86 Bonecrusher Product Number: G0568 Tra Gen Studio series Deluxe 86 Scavenger Product Number: G0570 Tra Gen Studio series Voy 86 Scrapper Product Number: G0562 Tra Gen Studio Series Voy 86 Mixmaster Product Number: G0563 Armada Scavenger and Hoist from Constructicon Bonescrusher & Scavenger respectively - is that a possibility? I could see A Hoist and C Scavenger sharing legs but beyond that .... A Scavenger's arms are his tracks which are C Bonecrusher's legs

No sign of a new Outback which must be an easy partial/retool of SS86 Brawn

Huh. I saw a photo doing the rounds this morning but figured it was just a custom. Clearly not. Ah well, not expected - and he can be a good Marvel comics Ratchet, given the routine beatings he received there...

Can't wait for Dead Ratchet and Dead Brawn. Along with Earthspark Prowl (if a UK seller ever has it) these are the top 3 toys of 2024!

Fucking hell. Arrgh, the pain. Yikes. Terrible... terrible... THE YEARNING. Such misplaced angst. Misremembered nostalgia.
