Don't be shy Hasbro, this is your chance for a G2 version finally too! They did G2 in G2 |

And never since.
Plus we are still in the G2 era.

Slightly bigger Huffer and the other Mini Autobots next please - in all their Ladybird book glory!

It says MISSING LINK in giant letters. A third party KO? -Ralph I wondered that same thing, but it has autobot symbols. No 3Ps use symbols, at all. It's the one thing they're all consistent about. I was also wondering if this was the next Haslab, but there are apparently two versions, so also unlikely. |

They've certainly picked one of the easier G1 toys to give articulation to. I imagine others like Jazz or Megatron would be a bit harder to do.

Missing Link as a subline name makes sense in G1 toys with modern articulation.
I mean hopefully its full subline.

I would kill for an articulate Hotrod and Jazz.
And I know someone who would be all over a Dead Prowl!

The Dinobots have always stood out as the ones that could most easily be articulated and with those original moulds gone they just seem like no brainers.

Now that's what I call an articulated truck!

It's certainly a way to make us buy all the toys all over again. Except for Megatron, obviously. And Shockwave.
Oh.

Just put it in the box upside down and its a space submarine.

Why would you need a submarine in space?

Right, I now can't stop thinking about a properly articulated G1 Shockwave. That would be absolutely mental.

How much more mental could he get? He was already adjacent to modern standards as it was. It wasn't until the cyberjets and laserrods before we had a TF with a wider range.

I am very skeptical about this being an official thing. I thought realistic gun toys were a no-no now?
I remain unconvinced by MISSING LINK.

That missing link logo screams KO to me. The fact these have dates on but there hasn't been anything official seems unlikely. A proper pellet firing gun Megatron? Hmm.

Yes, but we are very much a secondary, if not tertiary market in terms of production so not a factor in decisions like this in a lot of cases. |
