I don't know enough about how the toy is supposed to look to know what's supposed to be wrong

Green chest hinge, bottom of the picture, is snapped out the box. Compare to the one at the top

Ouch. Glad I'd not yet pulled the trigger on this one. (That would have snapped as well, I'd imagine.)

Lots of clear plastic on hinges on this toy gives me The Fear.

New chest, head, and rear wheel assembly, and Holiday Prime becomes a great Energon Rodimus

I don't see the point. Won't the trailer just be the same deco as the Earthrise one then?

Oh, oh oh. G2 black trailer on Hero Sureshot would be a hell of a combination.

Will that be Holiday Prime redone as Combat Hero/Sureshot?

Post by Toph on Mar 6, 2023 5:17:50 GMT
Please not combat hero. We got more Combat Hero Optimi (one) and Meg (two) homages than we do Hero (one megs, zero op) homages, already. And those were never actually released!

If it is the Siege Prime I would be up for that. Far superior to that Earthrise mould.

So they just went with the most boring deco possible.

Hasbro (I forget who - either Mark or Evan): "We've got a classics-styled repaint of Holiday Prime on the way!" Everyone in the fandom: "Well it's clearly got to be Hero Optimus Prime - we've not had that before." Hasbro: "Ah, you'd think..."
It really is quite dull. And uninspiring. If they'd wanted to hew closer to the original G1 colour scheme they could've at least put some flames on, as a movie homage, to give it some interest. As it is, this isn't even a "wait for discount" toy, it's a "why bother?" toy...
