Re: LEGO

The instructions new MEGA are far better than LEGO these days. As opposed to the LEGO ones that show the new pieces already in place slightly highlighted, they hover the pieces above where they are supposed to go, and then off color each tab that is supposed to connect to the each of the new pieces....

Re: LEGO

I have the entire collection of Mega MotU save for the convention exclusive Battle Bones (where is my mass market recolor with a better figure selection than Faker in pink and three overproduced heroes?) and Scuba attack Zodac (have not found him on a shelf yet). I was bummed that they cancelled the...

Re: LEGO

Oh boy. Now we're talking. My latest purchase of note was 75308. The R2D2 set that stands roughly 15". My favorite build was the Voltron from a couple of years ago (what? Transforming robots you don't have to disassemble to transform?). My den is basically decorated in Lego (and Mega and MacFar...

Re: Action Toys Machine Robo (ATMR)

I almost bought Buggy Robo as Buggyman was always who I used for Beachcomber in my young days. He just looked better and they were both blue dune buggies. I just do not want to start a new collection as I have run out of space in the place.

Just to clarify, I do mean Action Toys in their updated Machine Robo line when I say "they."

Re: Studio '86 and Kingdom (G1 portion)

1. That is not Road Ranger. Road Ranger was just about the coolest regular size GoBot ever. If they recreate that guy, I will pick him up.

B. As decent as this mold is, I don't need every single usage (meaningless flog) of it.

Dear Even Hanson (2021) Maggy's Movie Reviews.

Imagine if you will, a small town community is rocked when a young man from a well to do family (Connor) decides to end end his life. He seemingly had no motivation for this action, and had in no way signaled this was going to happen. In fact, the only thing that is found is a letter to Evan Hanson,...

Just when I thought I was out, they pulled me back in. Slammer and Artfire added to the Pipes Pre-Order.

Effing Slammer....

How are you going to try to bring real world physics of gasoline consumption into a discussion about a dude that fuels himself by eating purple jello and flies with the help of two thin strips of sheet metal that are less than a foot wide and way too short in length?

If Tracks heard you infer that he is at all regular, he would be highly offended. I am pretty sure he is the most fabulous of any TF to date.

Re: Eaglemoss Transformers Chess set

I am definitely not buying this one. Here is my laundry list. Made of "Metallic Resin." That means glorified glue and glitter. So, $20 per piece on no moving parts HoC glued on a permanent stand. Were they PVC, I would think they were more worth it. But "metallic resin" means tha...

Eaglemoss Transformers Chess set

I was wondering if anyone is looking at this?

I have some issues with the execution of it, but thought I would ask what you guys think before unleashes with both barrels of my gripes.

Re: Studio '86 and Kingdom (G1 portion)

So, everyone knows that when you paint flames on a car, it makes the car go faster. And we all know Tracks is pretty fast. Now, I understand for the sake of the cartoon, they did not paint the yellow outline on the flames for Tracks. But, we are talking the real world here. So, when we apply real wo...

Re: Free Guy (2021)- Maggy's movie reviews

Just wanted to drop in and say, welcome Agent Meister. I know I am only a couple years late on that. Let us know if you need anything at all. Also, no new reviews this week as there is nothing left in theaters I am itching to see. I may see the new Candyman just to get out of the house. Let me know ...

Re: Studio '86 and Kingdom (G1 portion)

Had PotP Grimlock's bot form hands been able to hold the Volcanicus feet into place for the Grimlock alt mode's feet, that would be one of my favorite releases ever. Some say the tail is a bit on the wide side, but I have never turned my nose up at a little middle with wide bootie.

Re: Studio '86 and Kingdom (G1 portion)

I think you know why Cloud Voyager Brawn does not count. I only dropped that money on the mold flogging in that gimmick line 1 time, and it was a much better representation. Speaking of which, isn't the Sandstorm/Springer mold the perfect excuse for a Sureshot? How in the world did they miss that ea...

Re: Studio '86 and Kingdom (G1 portion)

Meh, I am just salty due to having wanted a voyager Brawn (and by extension, Outback) since the launch of classics. There are 9 remaining autobot mini vehicles from all of G1 that had not had a CHUG+ deluxe size release. Six are dual mold mates. Bumblejumper could easily be done as one of a dozen ex...

Re: Studio '86 and Kingdom (G1 portion)

If I did not make it clear, I am picking up the minis that are being released in a larger than legends size for the first time.

So, Bugbite, Pipes and Huffer, etc.
