I think we might be able to make a good guess what that is It's the Mega Maid from Spaceballs! {Spoiler}

Please be shit. Please be shit. Please be shit. Transforming faeces would be an odd direction for the franchise to take.

Please be shit. Please be shit. Please be shit. I do wonder if Hasbro thought it was and hived it off to a separate reveal as to not bring down last week......

It does seem odd that the big flagship product missed all of that. Too many pre-orders at once perhaps? Mind you, the complete Menasor won't cost £200 and it's far more exciting than this.

It's the Mega Maid from Spaceballs! Reader, I was incorrect.

That was a bit of a mare! Lots of post moving because I didn't spot the Buzzworthy BB reference halfway through the blurb on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CdGqHXbuyQX! Here's the full text which I split between the threads:

I'd completely forgotten that the Trainbots were coming until I saw those pictures. I've just seen prices, which make me sad. Metroplex looks impressive next to the others but it's one I can easily skip.

I am indeed fully expecting to know all of these reveals by the time the stream airs. I'm not holding out for any Jhiaxus-level surprises this time. (Although even he wasn't a complete surprise.) It'd be nice if they actually said something abotu Earthspark at this, but since these streams are for serious collectors who aren't interested in children's toys I sadly doubt it...

Stream day
I think we're expecting this one to be Legacy w2 Core and the remaining Legacy exclusives. Possibly some Studio Series
We know there's one toy we've not seen due to go on sale tomorrow so there should be something new

Oh no, I'd forgotten about the TR Streetfighters. <wearily adds to the list>

They're from a few years ago. Unsold stock being punted to the American market?

Yeah, they're not great looking toys, so I'm unsurprised they didn't sell. But maybe the new Xovers will push them a bit more.

The Xovers do seem to end up on deep discount in general so it does surprise me thay they keep coming.

The Street Fighter I think would have been handled better by Hasbro.
Flesh tones for metal? Never a good idea. All except for Chun Li are titanmasters, so it makes more sense to me to deco the TFs in a functional colorscheme that's similar to the character, but still works, while the titanmaster are the streetfighters themselves.
Also, the mold choices weren't the best. Arcee is a dud, not only being a terrible mold, but is the odd man out by not being a titanmaster. There are worse molds for Ken. But Optimus for Ryu? Just...why? The only one that works on principle is Megatron for Bison.

I always felt that Arcee worked a LOT better as Chun-Li. Better colours and maybe it's just posed well enough to not notice the proportions are a little off.

Post by Toph on Jun 25, 2022 7:38:30 GMT
I have to agree with that.
It helps that both her and that mold have hips and thighs that are unequalled.
The choice wouldn't bother me nearly as much if at least one other mold wasn't a TR.
