Not quite the same, but it's all semantics:
Hasbro: Transformers Generations War For Cybertron Trilogy: Siege
TakaraTomy: Transformers Siege
All the latter did was inflate the "Transformers" part of the logo to make it stand out more, really... in addition to reusing the US card backs for Battle Masters it looks like.
Compare the following:
Same words, but Takara bizarrely saw fit to change the look of the logo's top half.

I assume that it is. Retailers are prioritizing groceries, medical, and other essential items. This entire market segment can't be a priority right now. I won't be surprised if the June date gets pushed as it gets closer.
Lol, too true. Did the trailer even have a date?Flashwave wrote:AcademyofDrX wrote:aronjlove wrote:I just came to post the same. All I'm getting is Mirage so I'm not too concerned. If they end up in stores maybe I'll get Scrapface. Gotta wonder if this is Coronavirus related.

One of the emails said something about "The Manufacturer sets the release date" so it could be Walmart passing the buck, or Hasbro is having trouble getting product imported because of COVID restrictions or a minimal staff, or both.
But hey! It'll STILL be out before we hear another word on the TV show its trying to represent...
