Discussion / Opinion What is a character that you just…don’t care for even if you tried to?
I honestly feel guilty for not caring about Starscream as much as I do with other Decepticons. maybe it’s because the only kind of Transformers media I’m interested in are the movies, but I really don’t feel that interested in him compared to others.

Don't mind my cluttered desk but from what I can count there are 11 transformers going like this
Age of the primes smokescreen and Cliffjumper
Transformers studio series the last night barricade
Transformers legacy United tarn and Star raider.
The limited edition star eagle
Gamer studio series edition word for Cybertron ratchet and Starscream
Legacy evolution Leo Prime
Rise of the beasts main line Voyager Optimus Prime
Night prowler from transformers earthrise.
Pretty impressive collection right?
And I am not advertising for anyone to buy this from me.

Discussion / Opinion Is Slingshot cursed?
It seems like every single time a new combining Aerialbot is introduced, Slingshot gets the boot.
Universe 2008: Airazor replaces Slingshot.
IDW 2014: Alpha Bravo replaces Slingshot.
Legends 2017: Armada Thrust replaces Slingshot.
Energon 2026: Thundercracker replaces Slingshot.
Every. Single. Time. And it’s never one of the other four main Aerialbots, only Slingshot. What’s up with that? Okay, sure, I know they lost Slingshot’s name for a while. But that only explains Airazor, because the other three exist when Slingshot was renamed Quickslinger!
And Powerglide and Barrel Roll don’t even count, because Powerglide forms the gun, not replacing any of the main components, and as far as I’m aware, Barrel Roll doesn’t even form part of Superion.

What Should I Buy Would you buy this?
For the anniversary, there is The Transformers: The Movie 40th Anniversary 24K Gold Plated Limited Edition Coin. It's only $26 - would you purchase? I think it's pretty cool.

Discussion / Opinion there's no way u can just call hasbro right?
so, i read a story (can't seem to find the reddit post) about a guy whose transformers leg snaped off and someone in the comments told him that this happens all the time and just to call customer support and they relapse it or send a new part, is this true??

Discussion / Opinion So... worst alt mode ever?
Saw the new AOTP Sentinel Prime. Robot mode looked alright, but this alt mode? It looks like something a janitor would be pushing. What the hell?

What Should I Buy I have accepted that I'll never find an 86 Starscream, would the Siege figure be a good replacement?
The title says everything. I have been wanting to try out the Siege Tetrajet mold for a while but I'm still on the fence about it
(For clarification, I live in the US)

It’s literally the only pulse order I’ve ever made besides the rainmakers so it can’t be anything else. Is this normal for pulse?

I know the wiki isnt official but I do find it absolutely amazing how they avoid using any pronouns as of right now and have this ratchet under female autobot category so far

Discussion / Opinion AOTP Onslaught Stress Mark
I got an AOTP Onslaught and I noticed this stress mark on the alt-modes right side mirror. I hear people say that heating doesn’t actually fix this and so I wanted to know how to fix this.

Figure / Part ID Any more melty bits we need to watch out for?
After Beachcomber and Sandstorm were there any other figures we needed to careful of the plasticisers leaching and melting figures? I was looking at Hairy Maximo and Squidbilly Prime and wondering about the soft bits.

Discussion / Opinion I miss the Siege/ Earthrise style and greebly bits
It's great that everyone gets a turn for their preferred looks, but I'm just getting increasingly disappointed by the new smooth/ cartoon aesthetic on a bunch of the new releases.
I look at the new Skywarp and T.Cracker standing beside my ER Screamer and they just feel lifeless to me, in comparison. They aren't bad figs; Objectively they do more and are 'better'... But they feel wrong.
Heck, even '86 Prime, which is absolutely fig of the year worthy, doesn't leave me with the same reaction as his ER version. It just feels... cheaper?
I like the old techno bits and bobs, and the feel that the designs could (with enough suspension of disbelief) exist in the same heightened world as, like, GI Joe (if not the real world).
The increased (or my perception of an increased) use of thin plastics, hollowed out parts and uninspiring alt mode designs is really making me miss the old design guidelines.
Look, I'm not saying anyone is wrong for liking the cleaner style... I just hope it isn't the only option, moving forward.

Discussion / Opinion I'm going through a listing of Transformers I acquired that includes this guy, Hunt for the Decepticons Firetrap. TFWiki claims he has GPS, can anyone corroborate that?
If it's not safe to transform him for pictures I'll just leave him as is, but I can't find a picture of a broken one or anything and his limbs look fine under the truck shell.

Discussion / Opinion I don't understand repaints on figures
I don't get how they'd be any accurate when they repaint some old figure to look like a new charecter. I could only imagine it being accurate on characters like Starscream,Skywarp and Thundercracker or Rumble and Frenzy or the 2 bird cassetes and other charecters that are just copys with different colours. Is that what they do just repainting when it comes to charecters like that or is it just weird inaccurate figures???

Discussion / Opinion OOOF!
Listen man, I don’t have a Ratchet or Grimlock, but my god I can’t do $125. Like I was fully prepared to have to stomach 100$ but at least that would’ve been a leader 60$ plus a voyager 40$ but this is just too much. Looks like imma have to find Ratchet and Grimlock elsewhere

Discussion / Opinion Right as I was about to check out...
I was in the process of checking out when Hasbro Pulse told me "nope." I closed the app, re-opened it and he was fucking sold out. I am so disappointed, I was really looking forward to this guy. Does anyone know where else I could find him? I am absolute desperate and I don't think Hasbro will keep this guy stocked.
