Also, haha; joke's on you, Shajaki - I don't have a mouse wheel to be in good shape. I use a trackpad and prefer a trackpad because I'm an abomination.

I like how the other members look, but I am disappointed they didn't change the cannon back pack, what is Bruticus supposed to use a weapon?

Yeah, too bad he can't emulate that, would've been awesome; as for weapons, I'd imagine the dual mini-guns attached to his fists would do some damage

The blasters on his knuckles?

Or the raw power of tearing his enemies apart with his bare hands.

Or, one could buy a version of Legends class Shockwave for him to use.

You... might actually have eye damage if you're equating the muted colors of hasbro's retail release (and not actually the g2 version, it's hard to tell) with a neon g2 transformer, when the TT one is objectively brighter than the hasbro release in all cases...

Yeah, I'm just talking about Vortex. If you think blue,black and gray is more garish than teal green, red, yellow, purple and gray than we obviously have different definitions of "muted colors".

Well, hasbro was just homaging the toy - like they've done with most, if not all of their other cw figures, I wasn't going to get the UW release, I just wanted to clarify what you meant, as I thought you meant the whole thing, my bad

This is correct. Where are you seeing differently?

I don't see next years May Mayhem, if there is one, being a CW figure. I see it as the opportunity for Hasbro to get out the Japan exclusive heads.

Hasbro has done stranger things. A few months ago, we didn't think we'd be getting Combiner Wars deluxe Groove.

That Bot wrote:Deluxe Groove still came out during Combiner Wars though. Next year we'll be into full blown Titans Return AND the Last Knight stuff will be hitting shelves. Even though the May Mayhem stuff is online only, it seems unlikely they'd go back to Combiner Wars with all that going on.

Yes. Yes it would.

Sky Lynx and the other four Autobots (with Ratchet somehow not dead, Wheeljack already got an explanation for his being alive) arriving to find the planet destroyed, much to their horror. They find Sunstreaker and Ironhide (who's also somehow alive again) in bad shape, as well as the shambled remains of Vector Sigma, who upgrades Sky Lynx and the other four who came with him into their UW bodies.

Ten years later, 2021, Cybertron's back in business but attacked by the recently-created Grand Galvatron. Marissa Faireborn and her daughter Sue bear witness to this alongside UW Ironhide. Trailbreaker puts up some resistance with his force field, which, from the looks of it, manages to detach Grand Galvatron's arms from his torso. Wheeljack uses the "Immobilizer V2" to disable Ghost Starscream. And Hound uses his holograms to trick Zombie War Breakdown into thinking Curse Armada Thrust is Medic Knock Out.

Down below, in the Oracle chamber first seen in Beast Machines, Ratchet works on either the dead Convoy or a new body for him (can't tell which) in front of the Oracle, within which lies Vector Sigma in its new Bw Eggbot redeco body that would have come with the Million Publishing Alpha Trion redeco of the Generations Scourge toy had that gotten released. Wandering Roller bursts in aiming to destroy Convoy, but Sky Lynx subdues him. The rest of Grand Galvatron's components burst in and are met by Sky Lynx's team.

Grand Galvatron and Lynx Master are formed and duke it out in the chamber. Lynx Master uses Hound's hologram fist to make multiples of himself, but Grand Galvatron overcomes this trick and blasts the real Lynx Master. As the battered Lynx Master lies on the ground at Grand Galvatron's mercy, he uses his Ratchet foot to heal his injuries and bites back at Grand Galvatron.

Elsewhere, five Decepticons stand in the shadow, all appearing to be the Victorion molds minus Rust Dust. According to this, their leader, the one based on Pyra Magna's mold, muses the following of the situation to the others: "As the wife of the Lord of Destruction, this cannot be ignored."

Now that's rather interesting. If TT releases an evil Victorion, I might have to pick her up.
