- Motto: "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes"
As I've stated before I was in college when BW came out. Tigatron/Tigerhawk was my favorite character, followed by Depthcharge. Magnaboss and Tripredacus were my favorite toys (though they only appeared in the BWII series).
One of my best friends however quickly grew to have Inferno be his favorite, especially after he basically killed Tarantulas at the end of S1 (You'll notice pretty much every character dies at the end of S1 and 2, as the showrunners never knew if they were going to get another season. "Kill em' all and let Hasbro sort it out" as stated directly from Forward and DiTillio at Botcon 98).
However as the series progressed, while I personally thought Inferno's antics were somewhat humorous, my best friend grew increasingly embarrassed and disappointed for Inferno in S2 and 3. I completely understand if my favorite had been turned to comedy relief, it would be tough.
As for the new toy, the Robot mode looks pretty good. The ant mode looks too short "stubby" I guess I would call it. It could just be the angle of the pictures. I wonder though... with Selects seemingly on hiatus. I wonder if the inevitable Antagony reuse would be offered as Selects, or a store (Walmart or Target) exclusive?
Bucket/Want List: Botcon 2016 Customization Class Ratchet (G2 Deco), or Customization Class Ratchet (Marvel Comics Deco) **would also be willing to pay for an Unpainted Botcon 2016 Ratchet, TT Legends Fortress Head (only) with working Electronics
Wish List of Modern Combiners: Road Caesar, Monstructor & Dinoking (proper size to fiction), Landcross, Guard City, Battle Gaia, & G2 Defensor. Wish List of Titans:Metrotitan,Majin Zarak
