■ What is "Transformers"?

"Transformers" is a "Japanese toy-based" content created by Takara Tomy Co., Ltd., and is based on the unique concept of "Robots in disguise" = "Robots that can freely transform and hide in any object around us" and an epic story of super robot lifeforms that can freely transform and fight in space. After the toy was released in the United States in 1984, the anime and comics became a huge hit, and in 1985, toys and anime started in Japan. Since 2007, Steven Spielberg and Michael Bay have made a live-action movie in Hollywood that became a huge hit around the world, and the seventh series "Transformers: The Beast Awakens" was released in August 2023. In addition, the new 3DCG animated movie "Transformers: ONE" is scheduled to be released simultaneously in Japan and the United States on Friday, September 20, 2024.

Currently, it has become a hugely popular character worldwide, with over 700 million units sold (as of July 2022) in over 130 countries and regions around the world.

For all those people who wanted ANOTHER throne. I have one from Starscream and one from Deathsaurus and that's two too many. IF I get the Decepticon bridge set I'll then have three. Which would be three too many. In no way will I ever purchase one on its own. I even sold my Drakkon throne from that Power Morphicon set a while back. I just don't like thrones lol. I also sold that awesome pop up display base from the SDCC AoE Dinobots. I just don't care for these kinds of things, even when I do display things.

Oh boy, it's an Optimus Prime in black and it's a Takara exclusive. I never would've thought that would be a thing. Luckily I couldn't care less about movie Nemesis Prime figures.

But wow, an Optimus Prime made in different colors that ISN'T black, purple or white. So that's Missing Link "Sentinel Prime". I'd be more than happy to get one if it were a CHUG figure. It's just that why yellow and blue? Yellow and orange, orange and red with yellow and grey, orange and red with yellow, powder blue and orange, blue and grey with orange, red and black with grey and most recently blue with gold and black are all colors for versions of Sentinel Prime. Shining Magnus Yellow and Optimus Prime blue are not.

Finally, Super Mode Starscream. It's about time someone did a Legacy Armada Starscream redeco. But does this mean Hasbro won't be doing one? If they do end up making one, will it be different colors as Thundercracker? Will someone be making Skywarp and Ramjet too? I'll still be down for Jhiaxus as well. They need to make more Seekers, just not from the Earthrise or SS BB molds. Armada, Cybertron, Siege, WFC and even the Reactivate molds though, bring them on. I mean, I'll still get that upcoming SSBB "Skywarp" as well as the SSGE Devastation Seeker which will be using the molds I don't like but you know, I'll be getting them in protest lol.
