This is such an outrageously bad take on Classics. Doing something semi-fresh at the time for a filler line made sense and sold well. The fandom was burnt out on reissues which scratched the itch for old characters. I'd love to see more innovative, non-G1 rehash character choices too but to retroactively blame Classics for it is nonsense. Current brand team's state of not being able to move on from the 1980s is no one's fault but theirs. And ours indirectly for buying it.Sabrblade wrote:I look at that Prime and that Grapple and just can't help but lament that this is what the original Classics toys from 2006 should have been like in the first place (knowing full well that the Hasbro team of that era would have never felt the same way), and that if they had, then we could now be getting something more innovative.
Basically, it feels like if the Classics toys had recreated the original character designs instead of making updated versions then the current toys wouldn't have to keep going back trying to recreate what the Classics toys opted not to do.

One for each year of the Movieverse's decade strong tenure. Here's to a few more explosive years!

Rodimus Prime wrote:"Earthrise." What a stupid name. Even "Rebirth" would have been better, and it would have been a nod to a previous part of the franchise. Or would it have been too confusing for some people?

With HasTak’s current attitude? Nothing. But he’ll sell regardless, so they don’t have to add anything.

Absolutely, positively not. Especially with what’s going on in politics right now, but that’s something I stay well clear of. I can maybe see a retool or the current Voyager into something akin to the M1 Abrams, and I would totally buy it, but if it doesn’t happen, I’m perfectly happy with what we got.

well they could do what they have done for titans sixshot and siege shockwave make the one altmode as a ship or boat but flip it upside down and its a gun, somehow make megatron do the same so officially there's no gun mode but we all know better

earthrise is an actual word, referring to the earth rising over the horizon of the moon, and particularly the name of a famous photograph of the event occuring
