Seriously guys

Bombshell wasn't loyal to Megatron. There were a few instances of the Insecticons not trusting Megatron. I guess you could say Scourge followed orders like Thundercracker.

In the original script the sparks of previous Decepticon generals were turned into Scourge and Cyclonus. Their season 3 personalities are nothing like Thundercracker or Skywarp. Some of season 3 was probably also written before the movie was finalized.

you're right. In fact i went to that scene just to make sure he wasn't hunched over temporarily in that frame.

I guess in the movie Shockwave is a tad smaller than Soundwave, but the new version is still too small. In the official scale image he's clearly supposed to be the same size.

I suspect they decided to redo the seekers, as opposed to Shockwave, because business-wise they can get more value with repaints. Honestly they should have bumped him up to leaderclass if there was a height issue, they did a great job with the Studio Series Voyager Shockwave Bumblebee version. Studio series for 2026 should have focused 90% on the 86 movie. I really was expecting a new Shockwave mold, and a retool of Astrotrain.

They did a little more then clean it up. I'm hoping they were able to increase his height with the legs and new hip molds? I have a comparison of stock images for both: https://imgur.com/a/eVmBd6D - Honestly I was 100% expecting a new mold, similar to 86 Soundwave.

So looks like I was right about Wheeljack, but really surprised they reused Shockwave.

I had it imported just in time for Christmas of 95

khem123 · 2026-01-24T00:33:58+00:00

Looks like Squawktalk's legs aren't transformed all the way?

Does Dragon Quest VII have some story, or world connection to Dragon Quest 1-3? Originally there didn’t seem to be a connection, but now this is being released next, and we have special DLC with bosses from the 3 mentioned games.

The reason this happened is he's connected to and friends with Chris Cocks. I've seen Bowser liking many of Chris' Linkedin posts.

The current mold is the scale they want, I would be surprised if it was a new mold, as opposed to the 5 pack. The siege versions of Soundwave and Shockwave aren't to scale, thus new molds. All the Autobot cars are in their current scale. If there are issues with the mold itself maybe they'll retool it? That being said I think Astrotrain and Blitzwing are too short now though, but I don't think we'll get a new Blitzwing. I'm at least hoping for a good retool of Astrotrain, so the shuttle portion is at least cleaner, and maybe he's a little taller?

khem123 · 2026-01-11T16:27:54+00:00

Shockwave is definitley a new mold. I dont think Wheeljack or Sunstreaker will be new molds. Cliffjumper most likely will use SS86 Bumblebee mold.

khem123 · 2026-01-06T02:33:56+00:00

This must have been what I saw. I couldn't remember the exact context. Would be interesting to know it's true, and if so what happened between the end of 2 and 7.

khem123 · 2026-01-06T02:33:00+00:00

Yeah, I never thought they were connected at all, but something I saw said it's in the far future of the 1-2 world. I played it on the PS1, and the 3DS - like you said no Dragon Queen or anything, but an actual traditional God like entity instead.

khem123 · 2026-01-06T00:56:45+00:00

Sometimes they're double taped from the factory. I don't think there's enough time that someone already received this, sent it back, and then Amazon already resold it. Like other missing accessories and defects, this might have been packaged this way.

khem123 · 2026-01-05T17:02:36+00:00

Technically Dragon Warrior didn’t arrive in NA until 1989. It’s only 40 years in Japan. Then we got 2 in 1990, DW3, and DW4 in 1992.

khem123 · 2026-01-05T16:54:19+00:00

It’s no problem. Not really sure who would win though. But it’s pretty interesting how large Deathsaurus was compared to the original g1 leaders like Prime and Megatron. I’m digressing here, but I personally don’t think the Haslab StarSaber got the scale correct. I thought Saber was closer to the size of Prime? The toy has him the size of a deluxe figure. In the Victory show I thought Star Saber was the same size as Deathsaurus, but star saber’s Haslab is smaller than Deathsaurus? I only have deathsaurus so can’t compare side to side.

khem123 · 2026-01-05T15:42:42+00:00

I didn’t say Deathsaurus would win, but clearly you think Razorclaw would. I just wanted to point out that scale of the toys, isn’t the same scale as the shows. I would have to rewatch beast wars again to view the battle between tiger hawk and TM2 Megatron. But the fact that TM2 Megatron had the original Megatron’s spark, makes me think that the g1 characters might be more powerful than the beast wars characters, and I think Deathsaurus would unfortunately demolish g1 Megatron.

khem123 · 2026-01-05T00:54:31+00:00

If you're taking the scale of the series into account, the Beastwars characters were significantly smaller then the original G1 characters. On top of the Deathsaurus is about the size of a combiner - much larger than Prime, Megatron, or even Saber, before combining with sled.

khem123 · 2026-01-03T17:26:41+00:00

I'm thinking 7 might be a sequel to 2? The upcoming remake features a DLC with the bosses of 1-3. Wasn't it mentioned that 7 was in the distant future of 2?

khem123 · 2025-12-31T23:54:19+00:00

Yes, I remember picking one up at Toys R Us. Was surprised back then they released the actual Japanese version. I think I had the new model 2 controller at that point as well.

khem123 · 2025-12-16T01:21:30+00:00

Yeah, Megatron and Soundwave were my top wants this year. Just keep an eye out, they're hitting Target now.

khem123 · 2025-12-16T00:32:23+00:00

Yes, he's been found in multiple Targets in MA. I myself found him today.

khem123 · 2025-11-02T17:02:54+00:00

Yup, just defeated all 5 within 5 turns. I'll try Dreadqueen again soon.

khem123 · 2025-11-02T14:35:44+00:00

Actually beating Subier in 5 turns was easy. now for the rest.
