    I bought my tickets for the 40th Anniversary show! I am going to a Cinemark. I will also get whatever memorabilia they’re selling. I am definitely all in the reissue of the first 44 comics!!! I’m glad to hear James sounding so much better!

    I am excited for the Rising Force Howl. I was initially reluctant to get these as it being a company with no track record but their Motormaster really ignited a spark of nostalgia in me for the toy. The robot mode is better looking than the Magic Square. The extra car looks a lot like a Monte Carlo SS from way back in the day too. I like that they made all the parts forming pieces turn into an articulated bot. I wish more combiners designers would go that extra mile. I was the one who made the bio for the extra bot. I always loved Bob Budiansky's bios as one of my favorite parts of the original franchise so all of my toys get them as a tribute.

      I thought it was you but didn't want to say the wrong name on the spot. Monte Carlo.... I can see that. The Motormaster looks great. I was in when they were initially rumored to be MP size. Now I'm glad they are Legends because I do not need anymore MP Stunticons for now.

    When I saw those tentacles on that box I thought Octopunch also. I hope we're getting him but I hope he's not a pretender. When I look at Nucleous all I can see is a chunky Cylon. I keep hearing him say "By your command!" in my head.

    • @botvscon
      @botvscon  4 місяці тому +1

      I think Octopunch was leaked. I'm curious what repaint he will be, as all the Amazon exclusives have been repaints. I can't think of any figures that really fit him. I guess we will see soon!

    You know what REALLY tripped me out, about that SS Scourge from ROTB? So, with his cannon split, and stuck on the back of the truck, it's actually screen accurate like that. Go back and look James, it'll trip you out too. I thought the same way you did. Front looks ok, but past the doors, it goes to crap.... cept it's supposed to apparently.. who knew..

    • @botvscon
      @botvscon  4 місяці тому

      Wow... I did not expect that. I looked up pics and you are right. I don't know who decided that it would look like that...

    I am there with Bobby on the Powerglide. If it looks like the picture it's an automatic purchase. With the XTB Runamok and Runabout, I'm floored they didn't fix that hole in the windshield........🤦‍♂️
    I agree with James that the missing link Bumblebee is a bit over priced but I don't have a Retro collection so I am in on these. The Megatron being a pewpew might be a pipe dream but keep hope alive......😊
    Read somewhere that Takara did the Cybertron Universe Starscream and Hot Shot on their own. I like the Starscream, so I think I'll be getting the Hot Shot.
    Nucleus looks like a rock Cylon....
    I've seen new pictures of the mmc Hotspot and it looks much better. Excited for that one.
    Great show guys as always

      It must be an engineering issue because it is crazy about the hole in the chest. Engineering meaning we messed up and I'm not fixing it.
      Bumblebee is bought!
      A bot can dream can't he when it comes to Megs.
      I haven't watched anything new in the MMC since an early review a few months ago. Glad it's coming but more excited to just finish a combiner. Thanks for watching as always.

    Missing Link Starscream is gonna be expensive. All the seekers will be. There is a lot they would need to do for a head swivel (his head would need to be separate from the cone), the hands won't be partsformed but part of the transformation, elbow and knee joints need to be added, waist swivel, ab crunch, thigh rotation, joints to do the full Van Damme and Full Monty, ankle tilt and toe tilt. Maybe even finger articulation.

    • @michael.delano
      @michael.delano 4 місяці тому

      For the seekers, I'd be willing to bet they will be able to do some sort of telescoping mechanism in the arms with hands and be able to keep the original transformation scheme.

      How many life savers Seekers will we get this year?the Battle Chargers should've had those shoulder cannons anyway.the G1 figures could only have the weapon clipped on their shoulders.the Bumblebee and Cliffjumper could've removed the silver head plates.do you guys get the opportunity to look at the G1 Transformers series,Beast Wars and the other Transformers series.I know you guys are busy.have you seen all the Transformers TV toy commercials?it would give you guys a better understanding of knowing the Transformers Universes?

    Thank you for the heads up on the Omnibus. I've been hesitant in the past because any issues with marvel characters have been left out in the past. So this was an easy pre-order. Little sad it's not currently available in a hardcover.

    I think that beige on Runamuck might be a badly photographed / rendered gold. This Runabout is black rather than the charcoal grey.

      MMC came out fast with the first two limbs. I how the last two come out fast now that Hotspot had dropped. The ships seem to come out about the same time between each release. I'll be happy to complete them as well.
