Tarantulas: Getting for sure, he is perfect for a mass market deluxe
Elita 1: I don't really have that much connection to the character but she looks great as a Transforming toy, will get.
Knockout: He looks like a good toy, headsculpt is good and I think he works best out of the attempts at merging Prime with the G1 style. But I don't care much for the mold and this isn't the knockout I want, he won't fit with the rest of my prime collection (no Knockout does still).
Wild rider: Glad they adressed how odd the back pack is, doesn't help that it's still a thing. Will get though because I want...
Motormaster: they knocked it out of the park. I have 0 connection to the character but this is some transformers toy. Reminds me of the Ultimate Prime toy from DOTM but done well and not like a freaken nightmare to transform.
Jihaxus: no connection but looks really neat, in both modes. Can anyone let me know which comic he first appeared? I feel like reading some jihaxus G2 comics.
Blitzwing: I'm not gonna spend that much money on a toy I don't care for so no thanks.
The original US G2 run is only 13 comics, 18 if you count the G.I. Joe arc that introduces Megatron's new body (G.I. Joe 138-142). Jhiaxus is the main villain through the whole 12 issue run, so it's hard to point at one specific issue, specially with such a short run. He literally first shows up in issue 1 of Generation 2.

Its kind of like Basic Instinct, but not in a good way...
Goddammit, now I can't unsee it.

...where do you see Breakdown?First-Aid wrote:Breakdown is another unimitigated, unwanted disaster from the "We Think Everything Should Be Geewun-ish" group. We have much better toy technology now so a more show-accurate Breakdown. In fact, to take a cue from another member here....
Day 1 of waiting for Transformers: Prime Masterpiece news.

Don't have SS-86 Jazz, but this looks like quite the retool. I'll get him for sure.
Tarantulas also a must buy. Though I'm expecting a BWB release with the regular / Black Arachnia head further down the line.
Elita 1 looks great in robot mode... kind of meh in car mode. But I understand its not really her alt mode. Just borrowing it.
Jiahxus Looks great, but have no attachment to him. I'll probably wait to find him on clearance ro deep discount like I did with ApeFace and Snap Dragon.
Will definitely pickup Soundwave since I missed the Netflix version. Though I puzzled if it has the tape deck mode, or is the unaltered original Siege mold?

The Netflix version is the tape deck. This is Siege cleaned up. Maybe the tape deck is SG Soundwave?
