Well I am Australian. It's kinda what we're known for.

I don't see Joe CEOstein going,
"Ya know, we should really go back to the way these changeformers were made during the Unicorn Trilogy, or what ever the kids call it. I mean we have found the way to produce these things as cheap as possible. Increase our profit margin, and all pay off our German touring automobiles. But even though everyone still buys these cheaped down toys, we at Hasbro have integrity and a reputation to to uphold so lets up the quality no matter how much money we loose."
"*Mr. CEOstein?*"
"Yes, Sandy?"
"*The Board of Directors is on line one. Apparently your fired*"
"Thank you Sandy"
I get how it works/ has worked. I was more expressing my fear. I don't see the quality ever reverting back to what it once was. Especially if the business end sees a huge profit spike on the decline of quality. I'm also a little tiered of watching the poor dead horse be beaten to pulp.WillyJammer wrote:Edits to my Tony Award winning play

Sad truth here really is that, as long as crack gets a crack head high, they will continue to buy it no matter the quality. Count me among the crack heads.
This I can not explain. It has also gotten better than the plastic used on the Prime toys, or at least thicker.william-james88 wrote:But then how come Deluxes have gotten bigger and the plastic has gotten better than the one used for the FOC toys?
Dear Primus NO!Prince william-james the 8th wrote:Can you imagine a world where your combiners are all like that FOC Bruticus?
Agreed. I think the designers did a GREAT job of making the most of the constraints put on them by the suits above. I hope they proved there is still life in the Generations line.Born on the 4th of 88 wrote:In the case of combiners, they were very innovative and found a way to mazimise on the initial costs it took to make a very solid and quality combining system. If we just accepted FOC Bruticus, we might not be here with these beutiful toys today.

Hellscream9999 wrote:SillySpringer wrote:I still don't see the issue with his vehicle mode. It looks like Blurr to me, and his robot mode has some obvious G1 toy references in it. (Such as the darker painted lower legs and red triangles painted on the shins.) I find this toy to look quite aesthetically pleasing compared to the original toy, especially in robot mode. And the butt of the car doesn't bother me. It may not be a complete mirror of the original toy in color, but you can see some of the artist's homages in there. I was mostly referring to the darker color-scheme in robot mode rather than the full color palate comparison.
The problem is that hasbro gave this figure (a highly anticipated figure) a crappy lazy paint job that effectively ruins the figure for a lot of people, especially when it's compared to the Legends version
Dr Va'al wrote:A first European sighting of the Transformers Titans Return line comes from the often neglected land of Italy, and fan Mattia Sanges of Transformers Italia! Legends class Rewind was spotted and pocketed at the Carrefour store in Carnate (Monza and Brianza, in the North) for the price of 12,90€ (approx $14.50 USD), though it was also the only figure from its wave, never mind the rest of the line.
If you come across any sightings yourself, make sure to help out fellow fans by updating our database and various threads. Happy weekend hunting!

Huh, that is very odd. Maybe Nemesis Maximo or someone can say their two cents about this to enlighten us all?

Well, I do live in the U.S. and I see that packaging every single time I go shopping. In fact, I keep all the packaging, so there's currently a giant box full of cardboard underneath my bed! (I think I need to get help for my hoarding problem.)

Keep it there until such a time to where you want to record a video to show the world all the insects nesting under there.
Just a question: Are the TR U.S. deluxes coming with comics?

That is a HUGE shame. Maybe wave 1 doesn't kinda like Combiner Wars?

Nope, it's already been confirmed that every Deluxe in Titans Return will not include the comics. If you would like proof, I suggest you check out the stock images of the figures for the first 2 waves.

That sucks man. That sucks. I guess if they left the comics out so they'd have more money to make the toys better, I guess that's okay though.

I honestly don't mind them not including comics. Since I don't read the comics, whenever I got a Deluxe Clas figure from 2014 or Combiner Wars, I got a comic where I had no clue what was going on.

Yeah true, but it was nice to have them for the artwork and collectability.
