Maybe I'll get a retool down the line if there is one

Swerve would be the obvious choice, though I could possibly see Small Foot or Jipe in a Selects release or part of some multipack.

So, I think I can actually explain this.
1) we are on a forum, same as TFW, same as other TF sites. Forums have become a more outdated source of online community, even if they are still used and are useful. And as a result, a majority of forum users tend to be people who have been online long enough to have been part of them when they were still the main thing. In simpler terms: a majority tend to hedge more towards middle age. Younger onliners tend to hedge towards reddit, twitter, etc.

Its kind of like Basic Instinct, but not in a good way...
Goddammit, now I can't unsee it.
You should specify that a bit. Nobody liked cartoon Gears. For me, as a Marvel G1 fan, he's 1 of my favorite characters, just based on his 1 starring role in issue #3, which guest-starred Spider-Man.o.supreme wrote:NO-BO-DY liked Gears

Sure I'm not on tweeter, or My face, or instacart, But you dont have to be a member to observe online reactions.

Over the last 3 years Hasbro have done everything they can to steer people to their direct sales channel and away from established independent retailers. In trying to do this they have managed to flood the market with products that people either don't want or just don't want in the quantity they think they do ignoring all advice and feedback from fans and stores alike.
Transformers Titan Class figures have increased slowly in price with Tidal Wave coming in at a suggested retail price of £219.99.
Hasbro want you to pre-order this item in abundance because we are ''fans'' and in their eyes fairly gullible because the last few releases
Black Zarak
Cybertron Metroplex
Decepticon Nemesis
The Ark
Autobot Guardian
have all appeared at half price or less in under 6 months of their initial release with Black Zarak being as low as £69.99 from the Entertainer.
Vote with your wallets, don't give Hasbro the satisfaction of continually preying on your support for an intellectual property you love.
We won't be pre-selling Tidal Wave, if it's available at clearance which is highly likely then we will carry it and bring it to you guys at a reasonable price whilst saving you the pain of finding it on Pulse for next to nothing in a few months.
Hasbro thought we were going to be able to presell 200 units of Tidal Wave to you guys even though we communicated the last 2 releases were horrendously overpriced with little to no interest outside of completist collectors.
It's fair for a company like Hasbro to want your money, what isn't fair is the continual abuse of fans goodwill.
Enough is enough!

And while both are fine, today we will indulge the more rumour oriented side. We've recently learnt from one of the self defined "leakers" that Legacy United deluxe Cyberverse Chromia will have barely nothing new in terms of molding. This is based on an image seen but not shared. The upcoming figure is said to just be a blue redeco of Animated Prowl with a head resembling previous Chromia heads.
Of course, this is to be taken with a grain of salt as there is no solid proof of this aside from the leaker's record which is 50/50. Of course, this will give us an idea of how reliable leaks are.
