On the note of the Cassette cons, are we certain there will be no more Micromasters being released in the mainline?

This little guy, however, looks so STINKIN' cute and well made. Can't wait to get my hands on these guys!
Sorry. Had to get that off my chest.
Posted: Thu Jan 17, 2019 11:11 amAll of the criticisms about TR Ravage were given way back in 2016. We're in 2019 now, we've long since moved on to harping on more recent figures.jtanimator wrote:It's so strange to me that people are constantly criticizing this Ravage for being too "chunky", and yet hardly anyone seemed to bat an eye at the Titans Return Ravage (or any reincarnation of that mold) which is what I consider to be one of the worst renditions of ravage (or any legends class transformers for that matter) I've ever seen.

Everyone critized TR Ravage, that was easily the least liked toy from TR.

I’d go as far as to say it’s one of the worst TF toys ever made. I even like CW Brakedown more than TR Ravage, and Will knows how much I hate CW Brakedown.
To keep this relevant, I haven’t particularly liked any version of G1 Ravage since the original. Even the Materpiece version is not without it’s flaws. Having a slab turn into a lithe big cat has got to be a tall order, and it makes me wish John Warden would yank his cranium out of his rectum long enough to say “hey let’s maybe have Ravage turn into the Wolverine thing from the War Within comic” instead of just giving us another crappy Geewun rectangle that gets legs.

It's not that, and really, when has Hasbro let our supposed shopping habits influence them that much?
No, each Size Class has its own release dates for waves, and Leaders happen to come a tad later than the rest. In fact, I'm willing to bet that Cybertron-inspired Prime is closer to Wave 3 rather than Wave 2.

I'm hoping that Hasbro learned their lesson with the fiasco that was Optimal Optimus' distributions and decided to make the three leaders dispersed throughout Siege's run. So wave 1 is Magnus and Shockwave, wave 2 is Shockwave and Prime, and wave 3 is Magnus and Prime. Each figure gets two waves so that they can be found easier. But, this is Hasbro after all, so they probably didn't learn

Erector is a go**amn Hall of Famer! How could you not know you had him?!
