EG-numbers all refer to Cyberverse and Legends figures, and are a mix of G1 and Prime Beast Hunters.

Yeah I know that most of the markup is because of shipping. I really like Alternators and wanted BinalTech but I just couldn't spend 20-25 on the figure and 40-50 for shipping. Sadly, if they would have cost more, I prob would have gotten a couple because the shipping and cost were even.
Anyway, I'm gonna skip on Go! for now too and pick up some Arms Microns now that some of them are getting fairly cheap. I may get some Takara Generations (or whatever their version is) There's just so much out and so much coming out.
My poor wallet

As for Leo Prime, I doubt we'll see him since his toy was mostly just a means to use the Thundertron mold, and his bio was written autonomously from the people behind the Japanese dub.
Well, that isn't the point I was trying to make. The only point I was trying to make was "Transformers: Prime was renamed Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Prime in Japan" and that's all.KUMA-NIN Maximus wrote:Something that sounds like "Super Robot Lifeform Transformers Prime is nothing more than a Japanese dub of Transformers: Prime."
I agree with you, as that wasn't what I was saying and I don't know where that came from.KUMA-NIN Maximus wrote:Which I solely disagree on account that the events are the same, but the personalities and dialogue were changed to fit the age group that they were going for.
Huh?KUMA-NIN Maximus wrote:And as for Leo Prime... I disagree on the part that on the part of their role in 1988, with two Headmasters becoming Headmaster Junior.
Where was this said?KUMA-NIN Maximus wrote:The fact that they said that they wanted to do more with the Arms Microns, but have to do their own stuff if they do.
I think it might be like how Beast Wars Metals was for Japanese Beast Wars.KUMA-NIN Maximus wrote:And the fact that we have no clue if the season 3 events are immediate, months later, or even years later. Which means that GO! is either the successor of Prime, treated as a separate event, and what it means for the future of Leo Prime and the Arms Microns.
Yeah, but his bio was written separately from the show. Hydra wrote it from his own imagination, and he's got no ties to the people who work on the show.KUMA-NIN Maximus wrote:However... Based on his bio, I think they intend to use him, and not just have him sitting around avoiding anything that has to do with Prime. Because that is called retirement, and he looks like he would be lousy at playing Bingo.

Not sure how that relates to this, but okay... I think.KUMA-NIN Maximus wrote:1988 Headmasters named Night Beat and Siren. Night Beat was both recolored and renamed Minelba, and Siren was altered (via redeco) into Goshooter. People assume that the names are currently a typo, due to the line coming out the same year as the series. But in truth, the copyright states that the characters were made in 1987... Which means that the names and bios pre-date their animated roles. Which, in fact, states that with Optimus appearing to be dead at the end of Prime, they can establish their own fiction and use him as the main leader.
Sounds interesting. Got a link?KUMA-NIN Maximus wrote:Representatives within TOMY, in regards to the reason why they cannot establish the roles of the Arms Microns outside the Arms Micron Theater. This, by the way, is why I have had a long-standing interest in the series.
