Three toys I don't want, which effectively makes Buzzsaw a $55 toy.

As for motormaster, I'd have preferred they give him a new chest and did cybertronian optimus instead.

Not paying £55 just to get one new tape. Easy pass.

They'll be back soon enough. Pulse has a pattern.

I'm sure they will but it's interesting to note what sold quickest

Do we know if they get the same amounts of each toy in? Are they solid cased? We don't hear much about case assortments these days! -Ralph

That's an absolute swing and a miss with Slipstream, there. I know that her first toy was also a retool of Windblade, but she's meant to be more Seeker-like - and absolutely is in Cyberverse. "Cyberverse Universe" Is it just me or have all three of the Cyberverse Universe toys this year - Windblade, Chromia and Slipstream - not exactly been representative of their Cyberverse forms? Windblade... maybe. Chromia? No. Slipstream? No.

You forgot shadowstriker and tarn.
And I agree. They're all good stand alone toys, but as representation of that particular version? Like "Prime Universe" Bulkhead, they suck.

More evidence, thank you.
I'm not sure any of them are particularly bad toys of themselves, they're just not Cyberverse
And, while I was forgiving of Bulkhead because I thought the Prime aesthetic didn't translate so well, you're right, it's part of a larger pattern.
Astonishing then that the Animated toys have turned out so well!

Now that Legacy Wave 4 is revealed it's probably worth a reminder of the added Legacy Wave 5

Oof, shoving Tarn out again? That decision is especially odd in the light of the 4 pack version

So how does taxi Overcharge relate to triple changer Overcharge? They must be the same person!!!

Astonishing then that the Animated toys have turned out so well! Yep. And I’d agree, none of them are bad toys. In fact, that Chromia’s growing on me to the point that I think I might have to get one, and I prefer the colour scheme on that Tarn over the original IDW one. As someone put it elsewhere, they’ve gone for the “vibes”, if not strict accuracy. Which I guess is certainly a thing to do.

(Turn around) Every now and then I get a little bit lonely And you're never coming 'round
(Turn around) Every now and then I get a little bit tired Of listening to the sound of my tears
(Turn around) Every now and then I get a little bit nervous That the best of all the years have gone by
(Turn around) Every now and then I get a little bit terrified And then I see the look in your eyes!
(Turn around, bright eyes!) Every now and then I fall apart! (Turn around, bright eyes!) Every now and then I fall apart!
