Shattered Glass huh?

All these years e-Hobby have had awesome and unique repaints ... get into bed with TFCC and they go with Shattered Glass crap.

Oh well, money saved for me then.

So... We're getting a Japanese Shattered Glass Universe that has the high and mighty Sunstorm has decided to embrace us with his magnificent presence as a tape-based Decepticon?

I like the G1 cassettes. Wouldn't mind picking this up.

I don't really care if it's Shattered Glass or not. All my cassettes are grouped together anyway.

I want a G1 shattered glass prime now!

I thought this e-Hobby/TFCC collaboration was supposed to bring TFCC exclusives to Japan and e-Hobby exclusives to the U.S., but so far Japan is getting all the benefits.

You need a new song to sing.

At least they have a decent ongoing story line to back up the repaints unlike other repaints that exist just because. Look at the GDO line of Asia exclusives. That is 100% full of repaints and adds nothing to the overall feel of the line. That series of figs is basically Hasbro's attempt to keep naming licenses, basically. Also, just because you don't like Shattered Glass doesn't mean that everyone doesn't like them. I in particular don't care for Bot Shots and PCC but I don't bash them because I know others do.

Also, now that e-Hobby is in on the game, I would love an SG Goryu which was a green repaint of Masterpiece Grimlock with a headpiece. That is possible now.

Wouldn't it have been easier and more interesting to do a Soundwave in Blaster colors and a Blaster in Soundwave colors?
