Today, Hasbro announced a new event titled the "Hasbro '86 Apology Tour", fans initially assumed it was yet another nostalgic nod to Transformers: The Movie and, more specifically, the traumatic on-screen death of Optimus Prime.

The only message you send with simply not buying is "this is something you should stop making entirely"

Just keep him as either a tank or jet. To milk it, just sell both. At least give us one good alt mode I stead of 2 turds.

So is it an actual tour that I can go to, or a theoretical event that only exists online?
That is NOT Siege Astrotrain. That is an entirely new mold. Siege Astrotrain didn’t have a tail fin. It’s a retool. Not a straight repaint.
