Hoping that we hear something about Grimlock tomorrow, and that it doesn’t turn out to be luridly-coloured lies…

Waiting for sales on Toxitron line toys. Too expensive in this economy.

I've got Jazz on pre-order but, yes, the rest can wait.

Yeah, subsequent posts on that TFW thread said that was a mistake. Shadowstrip repack is still on. Hasbro would be mental to try and do a G2 Menasor when no one could get the first limb. |

Phil showed off the Toxitron box on the call last night, that is glorious, so vivid.

Although, having said that, I do wish they'd used the toy head.

It is written that Mankind will only witness the Mirage toy head but once, and there it shall be invisible. So it is written, so shall it be.

Except Crasher has the toy head.
(God I wish they'd burn this mold and give us a decent Mirage)

It's a strange thing in modern TF's that in order to justify the prices, they have to give us an overabundance of engineering, when something much simpler would suffice.

It's bugging me the croc details aren't on the side of the car like they would have been in 1993/4

I still don't have this mould - was tempted by the yellow Wreckers one, but this looks looks very very cool.

If that is the finished version then, close as it may be to what we think G2 Mirage might have looked like, I don't think I'm keen. The way the colours are distributed makes it look like a prototype...

I eagerly await the first 3p replacement head for it and will be all over that like shit on velcro.

On the down side, the colour layout on Mirage unfortunately still makes it look like an unpainted factory sample, to me. On the plus side, crocodile details! ILLEGAL FUN!

Hypothesis:
What if the upcoming rock-izers are being used to justify an undisclosed Botanica?

With the caveat that this is a rumour.
It makes sense - Shadowstrip wasn't widely released in the US. I think I'm right in saying it never got onto Pulse and was only scarcely seen in shops.
