I dont understand what a capsule is. Does that mean they're all sold together in one box?

A capsule line, as I understand it, is called that because it's small and self-contained.

What's the betting we'll get a re-release of Ferak as Movie Concept Cyclonus? I'd say it's pretty much guaranteed...

Oh arses. I'd forgotten Ferak was the ship from the opening of Return to Cybertron. Right, he's got to go on the list then.

That's really thrown me. Now I look at that more closely I can see all the remoulding. That's a definite purchase.

That's something of a surprise....
Thundertron looks a slightly different shade of blue, nothing major. EDIT: New head and a hook hand
I know Karl was thinking of maybe getting Voyager Thundertron: looks like he may well be able to have mine . Can't complain about Nightstrike and Calcitrion looks nice.
Not the Perceptor as Chairman we were expecting!

This is the Netflix set idea again isn't it. Remember we had Siege Megs with a purple Fossilizer. That's annoying if you're wanting to collect all the rocks.

It is, I have no interest in Thundertron.
And with that I can swap bits with Magneus and make him a little bit brighter and Calcitron a little darker.

Hang on though, is this the first evidence of a new Ratbat mould?
Edit: ah no. I'd forgotten about the siege one. I forget a lot these days.

I was going to get Thundertron because he looks like a Zoids Liger. So I guess I'm in for this set to get the rock too.

Yes. I'd blanked that out of my mind.
I was busy complaining to Mrs P yesterday that I'd been to town and forgotten to buy milk, only for her to open the fridge door and show me the bottle I'd put in there ten minutes previously. A micromaster from six years ago has no hope.

I am very confused. I'm sure I saw Thundertron in Smyths and it didn't come with extra guys?

This is in the the Star Raider capsule line.
Just like you saw Siege Megs on his own, and then very slightly repainted with Spoiler Netflix purple Paleotrex.

Post by Philip Ayres on May 12, 2024 9:40:14 GMT
And also very slightly repainted with two Battlemasters
Original Sculpt head for Thundertron will be back as next year's Alpha Trion surely?

I see. Glad I skipped the voyager then!

The deco on Nightstrike’s cassette mode just caught my eye on a second look - it’s supposed to be a pirate flag, isn’t it?
Not as random as I first thought!

A transforming flag! Sold!
Thinking about it, a voyager, deluxe and a flagmaster for leader price isn't bad.

It makes me even more annoyed with myself for forgetting to cancel my voyager Thundertron preorder, this does look like a good set and Thundertron is a decent, if flawed, figure.
The capsules almost always get massively reduced at some point so I’ll hang on and hope for that

Oh man that open window package is so stupid.

Post by Llama God on May 13, 2024 7:11:07 GMT
Definitely good value for money, this one. If I see this reduced I'll be getting it, since I have neither a Thundercat already nor any of the Stone Serfs... Original Sculpt head for Thundertron will be back as next year's Alpha Trion surely? Given how he looks in Transformers One, I think this is a certainty.
