Rated X wrote:(...) do we really need a different Bumblebee for every year from ages 2-10 ???
Back then we got one Topspin, one Runabout, one Banzitron. Not 5 different versions encouraging kids not to exercise their brains.
-Kanrabat- wrote:THAT, I can agree with. There is so many characters possible in the TF universe. Yet, it's always the same 5 that are done over and over. AoE is a great offender in that regard by repeating the Bots in every single classes (Except leader). I can give a free pass on legion/cyberverse/legend class. However, bring on Power Battlers, one steps, deluxes, voyagers, and leaders! But try to make only 1 or 2 times the character per lines, shall we? With some being available in only one class. That way, we would have way more variety and newcomers will have more characters to discover.

List of G1 Optimus Prime toys (not including modern remakes)snip
I AGREE that having the same 5 characters in 5 different classes on shelves at once is annoying, but let's not pretend that multiple toys for the same character is a new concept.

You call the Masterpiece line and Combiner Wars neglect?

The first images, provided by listings from Redmercury, to come out for these new figures are those of Transformers Robots in Disguise One Step Night Ops Bumblebee and Ninja Sideswipe. These two are redecos of the previously released One Step Bumblebee and Sideswipe figures. I included an image of the foretold deco of the later for comparison.

No, I'm talking about their sales expectation and realization. I don't think they neglected adult collectors on the whole. Just that several major product lines probably failed their sales forecast.

I'm pretty glad that kiddie line Combiner Wars is among them.

... except that price drop is temporary, and doesn't mean anything in the long run anyway.

The RID isnt permanent. The user who called it in said it was only on until May 30 when he went back to recheck the in store markers.

No, that's not it. Everyone is repeating everyone else. It's a huge waste of resources which could be solved by not sharing this stuff at all.That Bot wrote:BlueBefore wrote:Why do you guys even share this stuff if you are just going to repeat yourself ad infinitum?
Who is repeating what? Are you maybe confused with seeing the front page news posts appear as regular forum posts in the thread?

Could you please clarify what you mean exactly? Is it about the news reporting, or something else?
