Sorry, I didn't get the context. It was up early in the Amazon app for me:

BTW have they shown the CnC hammer yet?
Check the accessory list, it does not say "piece of hammer". The Hammer you are building is made of cardboard, it is not an accessory.Autobot N wrote:Nah, the only ones I really want from the subline are the Fossilizersprimalxconvoy wrote:Rtron wrote:primalxconvoy wrote:Nice G2 figure; shame Hasblo seems to want to bulk up the price with unwanted fluff like Fossilizers.

This might mean that Springer, like Arcee, will get a Studio Series release, minus the cr@pple-damage paint?
Unwanted fluff for you, maybe. Fossilizers are the main draw for some.
I doubt it in those two packs as it's obviously the G1/G2 figs that are the main figures, with the fossilizers tacked-on.
Same, and I am seeing a "nice" split. "Nice" in terms that both figures and play patterns are liked by fans, but it sucks that in many parts it isn't the same segment of the fandom liking each two pack component.
O.Supremem you said that this is typical of hasbro and we say that it indeed was in Kingdom but what I find nuts is that they actually made good 2 packs in Earthrise, two packs which made sense. Like the two coneheads, ratchet and that medic nurse, prowl and ironhide. Those made perfect sense ..... and yet had their releases botched.

Bit confused here... So looking at the description
Amazon:
ASSEMBLE THE HAMMER: Each Wreck ‘N Rule Collection pack includes with a piece of the Wreckers hammer. Collect all 5 packs to assemble and display the hammer (each sold separately, subject to availability)
Hasbro Pulse:
ASSEMBLE THE HAMMER: Each Wreck ‘N Rule Collection pack includes with a piece of the Wreckers hammer. Collect all 5 packs to assemble and display the hammer (each sold separately, subject to availability)
EXCLUSIVE PACKAGING ART: Packaging features a piece of exclusive artwork. Collect all 5 Wreck ‘N Rule Collection packs to piece together the full scene (each sold separately, subject to availability)
Where are you seeing anything about the Hammer being Made of Cardboard? Looks like the accessories being listed are just the ones that came with the original figures. a CnC part might not be listed as an accessories.

More wreckers. I'd assume TopSpin in the least.

But it's not even am accessory, it's a papercraft dusplay with a base. Like the throne piece in Theone of the Primes.

Even more surprising he actually had the packaging. Hopefully that means we may see these before November.

Not doing topspin would be a big middle finger for a lot of people id assume haha
Here's to crossing fingers for a wreckers tigatron! And spider arcee, f it. Prime version wheeljack. Packrat. Apelinq, Primal Prime. Id say roadbuster, racknruin and whirl but that would mean new molds as opposed to repaints and remolds of existing figures. Sandstorm?

I don't think we'd need new molds. We still have T30 versions of Whirl and Roadbuster that to my knowledge, have never been reused outside their Japanese counterparts (and their weird Cloud incarnations). Rack'n'Ruin might be the only one who'd need a new mold.

Idk much about t30 whirl but id heard that t30 roadbusters legs get really loose. Id hope those molds would get the ss86 arcee treatment but that might be too much to ask

Last time I checked, both of those were still available at reasonable prices on eBay. If we're going to see them again, I hope we get something new instead of a slight update to a toy from an earlier decade.
