Gee Va'al, but I can't think it'd be easy for FIVE big robots (and in different sizes no less) that CLEARLY tower over every house in the average neighborhood, to make themseves comfortable in a single house, inside or out.

I was very tongue in cheek, but I also honestly do think that there is a clear parallel between the two scenes and while with the 2007 version gave me second hand embarrassment, the Bumblebee one made me giggle.

As much as I enjoy the first movie, the part that makes me roll my eyes at the most in that scene is the 'blown transformer' part when Sams dad is surveying the damage.

I think the bad guy winning definitely makes Infinity War far different than any other Marvek film. Thanks for that great comparison, it means this TF film will indeed be different than the rest.

So what iconic transformers can you expect to see in 'Bumblebee'? Fans will have a fun time scanning the battlefields on Cybertron for many instantly recognisable characters. Three that stand out in the film are Soundwave, Shockwave and Cliffjumper. Note that these are only brief cameos and most of them are not speaking roles

Fans of Transformer’s “Generation 1” will be pleased for the film will showcase many iconic autobots and decepticons- all which sport designs identical to their 1980s cartoon counterparts

meaning that they really dive deep into the lore of cybertron and thus the war will also be included and there will be voice acting for some of the listed characters

once again this makes my hopes for this movie go up and higher

Or like, Soundwave gets a single generic line during the 30-to-90-second Cybertron sequence.

Personally I'm guessing it's somewhere in between those two, but we I wouldn't advise getting your hopes too high for a lore deep-dive, since this movie is pretty definitively about the emotional core of a relationship on earth.

So they stand out by not getting to speak? Uhhh okay then.

As much as I do think that this will be a good movie. I do hope they don't focus too much on Bumblebee. Don't get me wrong I don't wanna sound negative but Bee gets to be in everything and is often a main character with a lot of merch. I just wanna see some of the others get the spotlight outside of the big 3.

That mold is very probably too old to use for normal retail anymore.

WHY?
They even rereleased Energon Grimlock in the AoE line.

As part of a store exclusive boxed set, not a normal retail figure.

So what's the point?

The point is that it's a figure from a time when Hasbro was in a different toy industry economy with different budget levels and conformities that they adhered to. Things have changed a lot since then, most drastically around 2012 when the Generations line suddenly had all of the FOC toys made smaller. Universe Hound was a figure made for a different time in a different economy with different budgetary conditions than those of today, hence why most figures from several lines ago that get surprisingly reused in lines from much later nowadays end up being either store exclusives, convention exclusives, or initiatives taken by Takara without Hasbro.

Might be another use for the MP Hound recolor as well as anime, swindle or the ehobby figure. only problem is when I get a MP hound I'm going to want a truck (transformable or not) with a green goblin head on the front of it...
