Okay?

Sorry, forgot expressing one's opinion on this place was taboo. Call it an old age brain fart, I'll try to keep such thoughts to myself.

Yup, lots on interest in him, fir now. While he's been out in a few parts if the world for months, he is still very new in the US and that's all that's needed for him to be popular/wanted.

When he was announced I was interested, but once I saw him in store, at the price point he was at, I simply couldn't justify a toy that essentially lays down*. Had it been a few dollars cheaper? Not a problem. But I suspect there will be a few people who end up thinking like I do when they finally see him in hand.
*Unless it's a citybot.

I'm already thinking like you and I didn't see the toy first had yet

I don't get the appeal either, but we all have our preferences. I think for some it's great that the character is finally represented, for others like myself he would be a pick up mainly to complete the cast of the animated movie, and there are others like you who just don't care.

I have the Spike that come with the OG MP Bee, the one with SS86 Slug/Slag, and the one that came with the small BWBB 2-pack. Might as well complete the set by getting the core one, if I ever find it in store.

I wonder if Core Spike is compatible with dinobots riding?

I'm sure he is, he's a bit bigger and actually somewhat articulated.

And that reminds me, we did get a "Spike" with Slag. So now I have 0 need for the core class figure.

It's not that I don't care. I've actually been getting a couple of SS86 figures here and there and think they're bloody great figures, my biggest gripe with Spike is the price. His transformation, which while is cartoon accurate, is basically just locking the arms in and laying down.

No no, that’s “Daniel,” and he’s terrible, as a character, and a barely articulated action figure.

Oh I see. I was thinking Spike because Daniel was with Ultra Magnus in the movie for the most part, not with the Dinobots. But then again, neither was Spike. I have yet to open my SS86 Slag, I'm trying to see if I can hold out for all 5, and open them at once.

Daniel was with Arcee more than anyone else in the movie, with Hot Rod and Springer being after her.
