Cause at that point you would just have everybody saying how awesome Hasbro is no matter what they do! It would be almost like a cult. Except without that whole mass suicide thing
Looking to acquire a complete set of the G1 Insecticons (Bombshell, Kickback, and Shrapnel). They dont have to be MISB, have the cards. The TRU re-issues are fine too. The only person that can verify my buying status is CounterPunch as he is the only person I have purchased from.

Uh... no? Hasbro's not awesome. I mean it's just a toy company.

Not sure why you would even say that.

A couple months ago everybody was going head over heels for FE Bulkhead. Now it's the devil spawn, because the head is different.

I don't expect everybody to like everything, or agree with everybody, but when people start to disagree with themselves because the head is different.... They need to consult psychologist..

Seriously, the head is so offensive, a once praised mold for its greatness, and cartoon accuracy is now complete crap?

Anyway, I like it, if I can get my hands on one I will. And if this may be the only way to get FE molds rereleased over here then fine. The head to me is fine, sure it's not Primish, but it works to identify the character, and the color scheme is close enough to bulkhead for it to work as.ri,e Bulkhead.


Look at it this way. Let's say we take your girlfriend, who has a a great body and is the object of affection not only to you, but also your friends and replace her head with that of Sylvester Stallone.


You get points because that was funny, really funny. :lol: :lol: But totally not the same thing at all. Still I don't mind the head.
I... have the power!!!!

I’m not sure why you consider a new head sculpt to be lazy.
A straight repaint would be lazy, calling the character a name that has a weaker visual identity could arguably be considered lazy (Powerdive, while lovely, contained very little Powerdive for instance and few people minded).

Sure, Brawn may not work as Brawn (I’ll reserve my opinion until in hand photos surface) but to call it lazy is incredibly unfair.

But honestly, call this the straw, because to hell with this forum.

I’m honestly not sure how everyone summons such vehement hatred for anything produced post circa 1988 on a daily basis and I’m honestly not sure why the loudest and more obnoxious fans feel quite so entitled and deserving of Hasbros undivided attention, especially considering just how loud and obnoxious they are but the bile that comes from this forum is inexcusable.
Not everything Hasbro produce is pure gold but the way this forum reacts is just embarrassing when you consider that behind the keyboards are not 12 year olds but chaps in their middle ages with 12 year olds.

Yes, you have opinions and I’m sure it’s a lovely and unique snowflake of a thing but take a deep breath before posting, considers maybe, that this limited release retool is not the worst thing to happen to your family, that Hasbro is not threating to drown a loved one unless you make the purchase and show an ounce of **** class before responding.

But like I say, my toys have long exited the pram, so carry on.


How is me calling it lazy "incredibly unfair"? I think your "incredibly sensitive"!
It's a new head on Bulkheads body!! Now if that isn't lazy then what is?

And where is all this vehement hate and bile your going on about in the forums? I can't believe how F**kin righteous and noble you think you are!

Me calling the release "piss poor" is loud and obnoxious?? FU and i'm glad my post was the straw that broke your back?! Good!! i'm glad i'm the guy who did it to you and it's hopefully making you pack your bags and leave the forums! whiney prick.

And coming here on the forums and telling all of us your opinion on how absurd and immature you think we are doesn't make you the better man or whatever you are. Just makes you an arrogant a**hole.

Now that's my example of what hate and bile with a dose of loud and obnoxious actually looks like.

I meant that is what it would be like if everybody that complained, griped, or said anything negative about Hasbro went away from all the forums...not in general. Hasbro has a lot of ground to regain before I will consider them "awesome".

lol sorry 'bout that. I'm getting very paranoid these days. Can't tell when other forum members want to argue or flame/bait me. Or worse if they're mods/admins.

Anyway, I wanna see the fiction this Brawn will be in. Has to be lulzy.

it will be called "What happens when Brawn discovers Golden Corral!" And many lolz will ensue!

Mayve we should start looking at repaints from a different angle. Stuff from this line like Brawn and Springger and Swerve. Say hasbro never planned to do another classics Springer, swerve or brawn mold. So they decided to reuse old molds with a new head. In this light, it's either Remold brawn, or no brawn at all. I rather have the option of getting a remolded brawn instead of not having a brawn release at all. :lol:

I'd have personally liked for it to be a brand new character. Or at least an Earth-mode Sharkticon. Gnaw's original toy robot mode was tubby like that.

In all honesty, the head doesn't really look that much like Brawn to me... I tend to think of him as having a rounder head. But maybe that's just me.

The color scheme is okay, and I may pick this up if it comes out stateside and I can't find a FE Bulkhead (or feel the need to have two wrecking balls for him), but most of the GDO Generations stuff doesn't really do it for me, save for Powerdive. This is better than the Megatron, at least, but I won't exactly be heartbroken if I don't get it. There's better stuff on the table, like Ruination and Thundertron.
We're all just products of our programming... And there always seem to be a few glitches.
