Why are Pulse always more expensive than other sites? I would have thought buying from the supplier would be cheaper? Anyway, hopefully Worlds Collide will be orderable soon. -Ralph Fingers VERY crossed on that one.

Blackarachnia is a loose woman! Her boobs just go flyin' everywhere!
Shoulda suspected as much from her leopard print bra.
I secured a set through sheer luck late last night, and had to go way out of town this morning to get it (two hour round trip). I've only fiddled with them a bit, and haven't transformed them yet.
Bumblebee is nice, and would be great except it doesn't feel like a substitute for Netflix. I really wish they had done something different, like given him his TFA off center stripe, or swapped the black for dark blue for a Marvel deco.
Blackarachnia is a bit loose, but not terrible. Her new head sculpt isn't as nice in hand, but also not terrible. I think I'm renaming her (shadow striker is the front runner, after the Cyberverse version).
Nemesis is a nice deco, but not different enough from Primal.
Fangry's mold is past it's prime. The new parts are good, but the original parts are pretty much spent.

I have problems with the "black optimus repaint=evil clone" trope, as it's boring, old, and has no creativity to it (even if Beast Wars cartoon is the one continuity where it makes sense as it's already set up for it) So I came up with something more original for Nemesis Primal. Feel free to use it!

I still feel like they should knock out Blue Bluestreak and Silverstreak in a twopack like Cordon and Spin-Out, and just build new characters around them.

I have a mighty need for Blue Bluestreak.

I'm just headcanoning it as Gorilla Warfare Primal. Hoping someone makes an updgrade kit that includes a clip-on cyberbee.

I'm not sure. I love the Siege datsun mould but wasn't keen on the ER Datsun mould when I got regular flavour Bluestreak and could not for the life of me get it into car mode!

They can be tough to fold the legs up properly. I have more trouble with the heel spurs though.

I put Nemesis Primal into beast mode for the first time yesterday.
My Oh My, that looks so nice.

To be nearly the same deco as Optimus Primal (basically a black repaint of an already black toy), and with an unrealistic purple chest... Nemesis Primal is way nicer than it has any right to be.

The Monkey is helped by the base of (what would be) the missile launcher being black and blending in better with the beast mode

I had a shot of Phil's Worlds Collide set. Very nice. Here's hoping a UK store gets it in!

So, Bluestreak is silver (grey), and Silverstreak is blue....

Post by Toph on Sept 21, 2021 21:12:38 GMT
They really should have done a twopack with Silverstreak as the toy colored bluestreak, and diaclone blue Bluestreak with a new name.
