Other than Fort Max. I struggle to see a TR design that wasn't pretty hideous, in retrospect.
You think so? I thought that aside from the head he was pretty good as well. Either way, WFC definitely had the superior iteration, bad shoulders and all.AllNewSuperRobot wrote:Rodimus Prime wrote:Octane was pretty good, the plane mode had a few minor flaws, but otherwise it was spot on.AllNewSuperRobot wrote:Indeed.

Galvatron is the one that comes to mind whenever I think of the bad TR figures.

That's the one we got.
I really like this figure, it's a nice modern update.
At its core the only thing that separates a regular figure from a Headmaster is a neck socket and a working seat. Any figure can be a headmaster as long as there's enough space in the neck for a socket. There's really nothing stopping the new SS86 Arcee retool from being further retooled into a Headmaster.

Yeah, a TRANSFORMABLE one.
But I think the IDWverse is over and done for as far as official HASTAK toys are concerned.

Indeed. Which will forever leave one huge missed opportunity for a figure...

Topspin and Twintwist. The "G1" classic versions.
For a line designed specifically for kids with a whole class of 1-step Transformers, I'm surprised that the original 1-step duo never made it in any kid's lines so far.
I know G1 Topspin and Twintwist are not rare and still cheap even complete to these days. Still, they could easily reissue them as a 2-pack in a G1 style box. NO EXCLUSIVITY shenanigans. No surcharge. A voyager priced box max.
I'm sure small children would have a blast with those classics.

Never mind they're fine for what they are. But yes, I thought of it once too. Whirl got a one step changer in Cyberverse, and it looks fine.

This is still my favorite "G1" Arcee toy. This thing is so much fun. And looks the part pretty great too

"No need for a reissue" but it's only for collectors who don't mind paying for high shipping costs. But there's many parents, grandparents, and casuals who don't know how eBay work and/or hate shopping online. The reissue will be for them. Plus finding a thing live in store leads to many impulse purchases.

To further illustrate the point I made on CC Spike and Daniel, though.
For Spike to be (technically) comparative in size to BB. What size class would Cerebros and by extension, Headmaster Arcee, have to be?
