anyone want alternity toys done as hasbro DOTM $20 HA toys?

Money, violence, sex, computer graphics, scatalogical humor, racism, robots designed to be rednecks but given European accents, and maybe another sequel to the saga... what's not to love? TF m1, Revenge of the Fallen, Dark of the Moon and now Age of Extinction.

anyone want alternity toys done as hasbro DOTM $20 HA toys?

Post by Tigermegatron »

C'Mon Hasbro,what's taking so long,can we please get the Takara TF
Alternity toys in america by Hasbro as $20 Human allegiance toys. you
can include a 2 inch human pliot & maybe a scout DOTM HA toy.

It seems kinda easy to call the Alternity TF toys by different names
in america by Hasbro. As the alternity toys in neither mode looked
like megatron nor optimus nor bumblebee nor the seekers.

Since the DOTM Movie verse is so hot in stores & will continue to be
hot in stores this christmas season. I think the alternity TF toys
should be released as store exclusives or dare I dream mass released
toys.

the ALTERNITY optimus prime toy could get recolored & called either
hotspot or ultra magnus.

the alternity megatron toy could get recolored & called bludgeon.

the seekers alternity toy could get repainted yellow & orange & called
sunstorm.

the bumblebee alternity toy could get recolored in rumble or frenzy
colors.

Nobody wants these because they suck. Also, Alternators failed hardcore (and so is Human Alliance) so there's no point in doing this either.

Anyone who actually wants these pieces of crap (with the dumbest fiction I have ever read for a TF toy) can get them easily enough online.

The Alternity figures would be to small for the Human Alliance line. They're at a 1:32 scale, making them closer to deluxe sized figures. And with the exception of the Seekers and kinda Megatron, I'd say they look like the characters they're supposed to be.

They are pretty cool looking figures though. I'd like to see Hasbro find a way to bring them over.

Currently hasbro has 2 DOTM human allegiance sizes. which is the scouts & the voyagers that are priced at $29.99.

I figured it would be kinda cool,to have a deluxe sized human allegiace DOTM Size,the alternity toys seem a perfect fit for this. they could sell at $20. come with a 2 inch human figure & also a scout sized HA Robot figure.

The HA line is scaled so that the human figures they come with are all pretty much the same size. As such the Scouts are smaller types of vehicles compared to the car forms of the larger figures. The Alternity figures don't fit that scale.

a 2 inch ha Figure can easily get put inside the car seat of a takara alternity toy.

Just how big do you think the Alternity figures are? There is no way a 2 inch Human Alliance figure would easily fit in one of their car seats. As I said before, the Alternity figures are about the size of a deluxe figure. They're not big enough for the HA figures.

I got Alternity Megatron not too long ago, I think at SDCC, for $40, and it doesn't live up to the promise. It's not even a great Nissan 370zx, which is tragic because that's the reason I bought it! The idea is cute, but it's too much a shellmaster, too fiddly and needlessly complex, not enough clever ideas to cover up the woeful pricepoint. And its odd styling doesn't fit ANYTHING except more overpriced Alternity figures. Plus, I think the Nissan 350 and 370 are great, but not as OP and Megs.
