While it's nice they're doing all three Decepticon triple changers, I really wish we would get a Broadside already. He's the only one who hasn't been revisted since his G1 toy.

Rumours say there'll be a Tidal Wave who is to be retooled into Broadside.

Which is nice, since all six original triple changers would finally be done well (Thrilling 30 Springer and Sandstorm are like universally loved, right?)

Titanium 6" Jefire, TR Astrotrain & the 3rd Party answer to Broadside I think are all Stormbringer related designs - so what else fits into that half forgotten them then ?

Classics Jetfire was the Stormbringer design. Titanium Jetfire was War Within.

Gotta go POL. It spreads the shipping out over the entire current order. Right now I'm at $18 for 13 items, a couple of them big like CW Computron. Doing POL does help a lot with shipping. It was neat seeing the 3 legends add just $0.25 to my overall shipping bill.

Did we discover if Soundwave has a case mate? I'm presuming PW OP, but you know what they say about presuming...making a priss out of...wait, what? :-s

Agreed that POL helps. But if I can place an order over $150, I'll go with Toy Dojo. Or HTS on an order over $50 if there is a coupon code available. I'll have UW Computron in my POL until I can add enough stuff to make the shipping worth it.

Quickswitch will probably just be a Sixshot retool. Unless they do Greatshot instead (or both)

I'm pretty sure Greatshot is the one they're doing if I remember the rumours correctly.

It was the Botcon figure, which was indeed a Legends reflector.

Aw man. I was hoping that Botcon just had the same idea and jt was really happening. Ah well at least I have Thrilling 30 Reflector.

It turns out the Botcon was the reflector that was supposed to be out at retail. Hasbro chose not to do it and instead told Fun Pub to release it as an exclusive.

Classics Jetfire was the Stormbringer design. Titanium Jetfire was War Within.


Opps Well spotted - serves me right to type when I'm tired.

What I supposed to state there was.... What family of design does Astrotrain share .. and are there any others ?

The point I was trying to skirt around was a specific time period or art style in a collection of comics.

I.e. War For Cybertron / Fall of Cybertron is a shared style
War Within in a shared style.
Hearts of Steel is a shared style
I was under the impression Stormbringer was one too and that Astrotrain was broadly speaking inspired by it as was (with a due correction) 'Classics' Jetfire.

I guess Classics Jetfire would look a bit small with TR Astrotrain though.

I saw some people theorizing that Stripes might have originally been intended as Steeljaw (hence the "mane") but was changed to avoid confusion with RID Steeljaw.

Ramhorn would require some remolding if not a new mold, so I'd be surprised if he showed up. I could see a third repaint of the Laserbeak mold as something like Sunder or Blockrock showing up.

Personally, I wouldn't mind a decent Ratbat.


Thanks for the info! I feel like Stripes isn't bulky enough to be Steeljaw since he isn't as sleek as Stripes in G1. I hope they're able to remold it somehow though, because I really want these two characters


I also still want Grand Slam (the Autobot tank/cassette) and Raindance (the Autobot jet/cassette).

That's what I was thinking. They'd be perfect. Though they should remold Rewind's head to look like Slamdance.

Maybe give Stripes/Raindance a bird head and make him a griffin.

I can speak for the AStrotrain mold since I have Sentinel Prime and I dont think the change in deco will totally change my opinion. I think its a stellar mold and very worthwhile. Sure the train isnt the best but it's a smart transformation that was thought up a while ago and that we can finally see play out. The molded detail is insane, probably the best detail I have ever seen on a figure. The spaceship mode is nice with the cockpit at the top and the change of feet works well (aside from making it a bit hard to balance since there are no heels). My favourite part is how a lot of it deals with panels (and panels on panels, which is the best part) and it is handled with no frustration. All that fun folding and unfilding makes him feel like a plastic origami :)

I'm pleasantly surprised by how much I like Astrotrain. This is probably my favorite TR figure thus far. Maybe I'm biased b/c Astrotrain is one of my favorite characters from the G1 cartoon. At the same time, I wasn't terribly enthusiastic about the figure since it isn't exactly toon accurate. But I felt obligated to get the figure and I'm glad I did. IMO it's better in hand than what I saw in pics and videos. My thoughts are similar to what many have said already. The bot and shuttle modes are very nice. The train mode is definitely the weakest, but still decent. I was pretty sure I'd hate the train mode and surprisingly like it. My biggest gripe is the feet. Someone from the forums said it looks like tux shoes, and now I can't get that image out of my head.

You could try train-feet. I do that with Sentinel to differentiate Astrotrain and him.
