Re: is the hunt over?
Those figures are outliers, and do not work as reference points. The bad face-sculpts and lower articulation were more common in "Beast Wars". But, they were acceptable at the time because standards/expectations were lower. What do you mean it's an outlier? How doesn't it work as a refere...

Re: is the hunt over?
The older figures are still "okay" because of when they were made. But, if a modern figure had those problems, it would not be okay. Modern figures DO have those "problems", and are still okay. Legacy TM2 Megatron that came out a year or two ago? Not a good face sculpt. But I'm ...

Re: is the hunt over?
Beast Wars was 25+ years ago. As I said, some updates wouldn't hurt, but just being older doesn't mean the original figures are "unacceptable now", or even that a newer version would necessarily be better. Take the PotP Evolution Optimal Optimus figure as an example. The 'evolution' gimmi...

Re: Transformers: Legacy
Tigerhawk I never expected we'd get a new Tigerhawk figure, and I'm so happy that we got this one. The only thing I'm not really a fan of with this figure is the beast mode's head. The sculpt just doesn't look much like a tiger to me, looks more like a bear. I am glad they left out the falcon mask,...

Re: is the hunt over?
Honey Bear and I marveled at figures that would be wholly unacceptable by today's standards, such as many of the Transmetals. (I happily bought Rampage in 1998. That figure would be unacceptable now.) How so? The Transmetals are among the best figures of the Beast Wars line. I was never a big fan o...

Re: TV shows are awesome
Loki season 2 I'm conflicted on this season. I liked the overall story, but the time travel and multiverse stuff felt messy and inconsistent. And the writers never attempted to explain any of that. Like, Loki's time slipping is pointed out to be impossible in the TVA, and the character's essentiall...

Re: is the hunt over?
I've been sticking to the Beast Wars characters. Pretty happy they made all of the season 1 cast and Legacy TM2 Megatron and I also got the Studio Series RotB Maximals. My Legacy Tigerhawk was actually supposed to arrive today, but it got delayed at the last minute and now isn't arriving until next ...

Season 2 of What If...? Nebula Joined the Nova Corps? Straight forward story with Nebula investigating Yondu's murder on Xandar. She'd joined the Nova Corps after Rowan successfully took down Thanos, before turning his sights on Xandar. Turns out Yon-Rogg and Nova Prime were behind the murder, beca...

Re: Fall 2023 Hauls
Lightning Collection Remastered MMPR Red and Green Rangers I'd gotten the standard releases some time ago, which were disappointing. The standard Red Ranger has a wonky helmet, and Hasbro forgot the white diamonds under the dragon shield on the Green Ranger. So I was pretty happy when they announce...

Re: Comics are Awesome III
Razer is introduced to the comics for the first time. Interesting that they'd decide to bring Razer into the comics now, given the animated series ended 10 years ago (has it really been that long already?). I remember when the cartoon first premiered, they briefly used a ship the same design (albei...
