I would prefer not. Year 1 posting will drop off as year 2 posting picks up. The Studio Series thread doesn't reboot every year.

In the sense that this is a continuation like "Earthrise" was for "Siege" and "Kingdom" was for "Earthrise", I thought it might be appropriate. It's not the end of the world if not, but I do tend to favor organization of information.

- Beast Machines became "Beast Machines: Battle for the Spark"
- Armada became "Armada: The Unicron Battles"
- Energon became "Energon: The Powerlinx Battles"
- Cybertron became "Cybertron: Primus Unleashed"
- The first movie line became "Transformers: AllSpark Power" and "Transformers: Premium Series"
- Revenge of the Fallen became "Revenge of the Fallen: N.E.S.T. Global Alliance"
- The 2010 Transformers line became "Transformers: Reveal the Shield"
- The original Generations line became "Generations: Fall of Cybertron" and "Generations: Thrilling 30"
I liken Siege becoming Earthrise and then Kingdom to more like how Armada became Energon and then Cybertron. Or how Combiner Wars became Titans Return and then Power of the Primes. All three different lines part of a larger umbrella-named trilogy ("Unicron Trilogy", "Prime Wars Trilogy", and "War for Cybertron Trilogy").

So...no, then?

This toy has not been spotted in stores yet (and might only ever be sold online). Any trip there for that toy would be a wasted trip until you read that it's been found.

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

And from the looks of it, the answer is... guns. Pointless guns. Because Autobot Cyber-Ninjas totally use guns.
The Junkion looks cool, though.

"Genius" is a pretty strong word considering the original Animated Prowl was already an "Animated-ization" of G1 Prowl, per his design evolution:-Kanrabat- wrote:That Prowl is pretty genius. It's the fusion of the original G1 with Animated. I expect a "G1 colored" repaint in Select or as some store exclusive sooner or later.

The original Animated design is really stylized. The Legacy one is more of a perfect fusion and the head this time around match the body. I know it's not what animated fans want but at least it works way better than Bulkhead, Arcee, and Knockout.
For some TRUE Animated updates, the original TV series needs to be remastered, re-aired, then that missing season must finally be made. Then they could do an original toy line that will go with the cartoon with better engineering. This could be the next thing after Earthspark. But we all know that will never happen.
