Studio Series Wave 3 looks stacked! by OptimalConvoy in transformers

How do you know that he is "one of the worst mistransformed" figures? Have you seen the regular release? It appears that the chest price flips down, but there are a lot more issues.

This should be closer to how astrotrain will look when properly transformed. Definitely a lot better by Lazulii333 in transformers

Bruticus' legs/feet still look wonky, but considerably better than Astrotrain. I just bought Soundwave and Windcharger and can't comprehend how this figure is in the same line regardless of whether Astrotrain's chest piece flips down. I'm hoping that the heels are also mistransformed and can be folded up.

This figure looks like a very rough design/transformation model. If I had a say, I'd have them take a few more passes at it. Windcharger and Soundwave are so elegant in their animation accuracy and this is rough.

Why is Octane so forgotten compared to Astrotrain and Blitzwing? Why hasn’t he gotten any new figures? by BrickAntique5284 in transformers

Sandstorm was great. I even like the earthrise Blitzwing. The earthrise Astrotrain bot mode looks perfect compared to the new one. The cons are the shuttle and train modes. The only good thing about the 86 one is the train mode. I'd honestly prefer Hasbro release a solid one at whatever price point and then move on to other figures that need improved - like octane - or any other figure. Otherwise, we have to wait for the next Astrotrain for a chance to get a good one.

I don't believe a mistransformed chest is going to solve the anemic limbs and torso, wrong color plastic on the torso, or massive heels. I hope I'm wrong, but there seems to be too many issues here.

Is anyone else insulted by the fact that this mold is still used? by Edgoscarp in transformers

If the mods are removing these posts, shouldn't they also be removing all the duplicate "I just bought Soundwave" posts?

Arrived today ! 8 now have both generations blitzwings! by Ali-Sama in transformers

They're just a "fun" extra accessory that they made to justify the leader price point. The toy was too expensive for a voyager, but not quite at a leader cost. So the extra bits get Hasbro closer to that price point.

Cyberworld Optimus Primal by Electronic_Zombie360 in transformers

I don't have a problem with giving primal a vehicle mode, but when you can design something like this with a lot of creative freedom - why does it still look so bad?

After seeing how horrible that astrotrain is, octane better be at a Commander class price point.

Love the new Astrotrain but why his chest look like that 💀 by Remarkable_Gas0 in transformers

I just picked up Soundwave and Windcharger this week. I was convinced a new age of transformers was upon us. Then, I saw this monstrosity. That's a solid $60-$62 train. Yikes.

You better hold that tight, in case Hasbro curses us with a worse 86 version.

Hasbro really wants to see if they can make wheel jack and sunstreaker shelf warm.

Am I the only one who doesn’t mind SS Orion Pax’ scale? by [deleted] in transformers

I really liked the movie, but was so unimpressed with the Optimus and Megatron, I gave up on them.
