How about an online exclusive Titan-priced 2-pack of Prime and Jetfire?

If it's Star Convoy priced, I can see it happening. But to make that 2 pack worth it, they should be in a unique deco. Like this one:

In that case, the price would be higher than Star, but lower than the standard titan. I expect Overload to be a voyager.

That would be nice. They don't really have the sort of recognition as the minibots, but then neither does Jalopy. I'd like them to do Autobot Double Targetmasters first, though.

I wish I could say that surprised me but it doesn't. Though, that same week they canceled a bunch of MotU pre-orders.

I don't mind the mirage mold, I prefer the Siege version, but it might have looked better on the Cybertron Hot Shot/Excellion mold.
I'm not opening her. After looking at G2 Mirage, it's such a bad alt mode.
But in a box, in robot mode, behind a plastic window... Mm.
Posted by Sabrblade on August 6th, 2025 @ 12:44am CDT
That mold didn't yet exist at the time the Velocitron subline was first released. Crasher is a reissue of that same release, rereleased due to how difficult to find she was the first time around.DISCHARGE wrote:Does anyone else feel Crasher wasn't done justice?

Plus, she's inspired by the 2007 Movie Fracture figure that was likewise a Mirage redeco, as they can't make her look too much like the original GoBot/Machine Robo toy whose likeness is owned by rival company Bandai. She needs to look legally distinct enough in order to not infringe on Bandai's IP, especially when trying to market the toy in Japan where Bandai's competition with TakaraTomy is even greater than it is with Hasbro in the west.

My only real complaint is using that ugly G1 Mirage toy head instead of the softer cartoon head. Applying the same deco would have differentiated it enough just like the movie figure did. Heck, use the regular Siege head on the Kingdom body and that would really differentiate things.

So, I get what you are saying, but they knew the mold was coming as they plan many of the molds far in advance. They could have just waited on this particular release, and I'm not even super set on the Hot Shot toy as the model, even a Whpeeljack mold would have been a fresher idea.
Maybe they produced a certain amount at the initial pressings and held them back in a warehouse to package in aotp packaging. It kinda makes sense logistically, but would be super lazy and uninspired. Mirage is just not the figure to embody Crasher, imo.

While it is likely that the Legacy United Cybertron Hot Shot mold was in development at the time that Velocitron Crasher was released, that same timetable would also apply to when Crasher was first in development, which would have been even further back during the War For Cybertron Trilogy long before the point when Legacy United would have been in planning stages. If the time from conception to release for each figure is about two years, then Crasher would been first planned back during Earthrise in 2020, since she was released during Legacy Year 1 in 2022. Legacy United was released in 2024, with Cybertron Hot Shot being part of the Wave 3 Deluxes released in the latter half of the year, so the earliest that that mold would have enter the planning stages would have been back during the middle of 2022 either around the time or after Velocitron Crasher was already set and ready to go for release at retail.DISCHARGE wrote:So, I get what you are saying, but they knew the mold was coming as they plan many of the molds far in advance.

And, like I said before, she's not supposed to precisely resemble the GoBot (because, legally, she can't), she's supposed to resemble 2007 Movie Fracture, who only wasn't named "Crasher" at the time due to both trademark reasons and the Hasbro team at the time frowning on obvious GoBots homages (designer Joe Kyde had to get around Hasbro Legal by arguing that Fracture's deco was based more on a real-life F-1 racer instead).
Package refreshes are more common a thing now. This isn't old stock taken out of Velocitron packaging and put into AOTP packaging. This is a newly-manufactured production run of the same figure with new packaging. The current Hasbro team is willing to do this kind of thing nowadays for figures that are harder to find.DISCHARGE wrote:Maybe they produced a certain amount at the initial pressings and held them back in a warehouse to package in aotp packaging.

Since Crasher is not an original transformers character, I think Hasbro really looks at those from the opposite perspective as you are. Meaning, they have a mold first and then try to figure out who else the mold can be used for rather then what mold would be the best-ish fit for the character.
On top of that the best mold fit they already had at the time of release and it would have been PotP Jazz, which I'm actually surprised did not happen.

Oh, big time, so I'm actually fine with them using the Mirage mold. It was just the absolute correct shape for the car for Crasher that is seemed like a no brainer.

Yeah, but, legally-speaking, that's probably a reason why they didn't ever use it for Crasher.TF-fan kev777 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:To be fair, that mold kinda sucked anyway.TF-fan kev777 wrote:On top of that the best mold fit they already had at the time of release and it would have been PotP Jazz, which I'm actually surprised did not happen.

Also because the robot mode was bad, in general, for Jazz or Crasher. Correct on the alt mode though, it would have looked nice in car mode for her.

That, and Fracture was also a Walmart exclusive so it isn't just a homage to the original figure but also a homage to how it was sold.

Hasbro buying Tonka didn't really get them GoBots as characters, just the names associated with it. Cartoon likenesses are owned by WB (or whoever, it traded hands a lot over the years) and the toy likenesses still belong to Bandai. Companies didn't always fully protect their IPs back in the day, it's why there's so many Transformers characters in the comics that are owned by Marvel. This stuff was basically considered disposable, nobody expected it to survive the 80s so they didn't put a lot of effort into protecting all of it. Hasbro had a little more foresight than most companies of the time, but a lot of toy companies abandoned IPs as quickly as they made them. Lately Nacelle has been snapping up a lot of abandoned IPs like Robo Force, Insectaurs, Cowboys of Moo Mesa, Biker Mice from Mars and most recently Power Lords.

If you're referring to the likes of Circuit Breaker and Death's Head, those two are owned by Marvel because they made their first debuts in comics belonging to Marvel first and foremost before they first appeared in the Marvel Transformers comics. Any character who originally first debuted in the Transformers comics defaulted to Hasbro's ownership since the Marvel Transformers comics were a licensed series rather than a Marvel-original work. So it's just Circuit Breaker and Death's Head (and Spider-Man and all the cameos from Issue #3) whom Marvel own. Everyone else who first debuted in the Marvel Transformers comics are Hasbro's IP.Emerje wrote:Companies didn't always fully protect their IPs back in the day, it's why there's so many Transformers characters in the comics that are owned by Marvel.

I would have preferred a straight reissue of the older one if they "have to" do what's already been done. I woulda still wanted it in the aotp packaging.
The alt mode is just cleaner and I remember liking the robot mode. I like the mirage robot mode, and Crashers robot mode is nice.. but if they had time to wait to rebatch that mirage mold to fit it in aotp packaging.. they had time to wait for greener opportunities
Like, plans change.
It's like saying all the egghead's at hasbro are like "no man, we can't make changes." So I'm saying, they could a been like hey let's not pay to bring out another mold, they could have just used the hot shot mold after molding Excellion and just slap Crasher/Fracture color scheme in it.
It's just a cool figure/ property and I think they could have been more creative.

I had to wait for lucky eBay finds that happened to be at the normal price plus shipping... Twice.
The reissue of Crasher and Cosmos were certainly not a luxury.

My Walmart had seven of them (six now, thanks to me).
The rumor, started by Jtprime17, was that Excellion and Sideways were still being released (Sideways was still showing up in other countries when Walmart cancelled all those orders) but the rest of the capsule was cancelled. That still seems to be true, we've never seen Walmart just release only two figures from a full capsule like this before.

The only other figure for this capsule to have been leaked was Cybertron Skywarp, but it's never so much as been leaked which really just adds more evidence to the line being canceled. If it had gone as planned there would have been two more Deluxes and a Leader.

Not only Alpha Bravo, but I'm also expecting a Blades retool/redeco out of the mold. I just can't see them making another different deluxe helicopter/combiner arm mold.

Having Legacy leader (LEADER) Blitzwing using faux-parts to achieve the crappy imperfect look of the G1 original is baffling and an insult.
With the leader budget, there's no excuses to not be able to make both a perfect tank and a perfect jet.
If 3P would design a "Blitzwing" in current Generations scale that would sell for less than 100$ it would be quite a flex on Hasbro/Takara.
With that said, I can now forgive Siege Astrotrain for having imperfect vehicle modes, but he's at least his own thing and the imperfect vehicles are still cohesive without using fake parts for uglyfication like Blitzwing.
Well well well. How's the turntables.





The mold is much, much more enjoyable than I anticipated. Plus, once you figure out how it works, it is surprisingly simple. Overcharge hide his thank kibble well in jet mode simply because the tank is in darker colors.

These were all found at Walmart. While this is earlier than other regions, it does mean that several stores will thus be skipping wave 2, for deluxes, which have been very sparse. We also have reviews of this wave's contents after the images.
