Plus, most of the original Transmetal molds were already so good that almost none of them need updating.

The only problem with the line is the ocasional GPS but mostly, flaky chrome paints. A problem that carried on to Beast Machines.

These are convention exclusives, yes.Wolfman Jake wrote:Now we've got a rough idea of prices for the LG-EX figures! Next question is when and where? Were these available at this show, or are they just advertising their future release elsewhere?

Thank you for rubbing it in. I'd almost forgotten how determined Hasbro was to punish us if we like anything other than G1.
You know, as much as I've always been sick of the "true fans only buy Takara" people, Hasbro seems set on vindicating them.

I'm imaging next year at 'Hascon' the exclusives will be a Mindwipe and Skullcruncher painted like Bat Optimus and Gator Megatron.Zeedust wrote:Thank you for rubbing it in. I'd almost forgotten how determined Hasbro was to punish us if we like anything other than G1.

Hasbro: "Sorry were late to the party guys. But we just wanted everyone to know we loved Beast Wars just as much as the fans. We even made exclusives of our two favorite characters from the show! "

I know they are convention exclusives. I wanted to know if they were available at TransFest 2016, or are they to be available at a different show later? I'm expecting the latter, as there have been now solicitations yet from the likes of TFSource or BBTS, where they definitely had some last year for LG-EX Armada Megatron and RID Scourge. I don't want to miss out on Rhinox or Waspinator at the very least.

It was this previous weekend.Wolfman Jake wrote:Here's my point of confusion, then. Has TransFest already happened, or is it going to take place later on? I don't know if these news snippets have been reports of the event itself, or news about what is to be expected at the event.

So, TFSource and BBTS completely skipped out on getting these Beast Wars LG-EX figures? Crap.

Well, the Legend Commander Collection toys were con exclusives that eventually got rereleased on TakaraTomy Mall which led them to reaching other venues as well, so there's a chance that these three could too.Wolfman Jake wrote:Sabrblade wrote:It was this previous weekend.Wolfman Jake wrote:Here's my point of confusion, then.

Retreading the piece, I do believe that is correct. We'll see soon enough!
