We have some more listings for you, reported by several people. Walmart now has a listing for a new Bumblebee from the Bumblebee movie. Smart money would be on a Cybertronian Bumblebee since he had the same body as Cliffjumper which is already getting a toy. It's also the only version of Bumblebee from that movie we have yet to get.
We also have a listing for Dino. The listing states TF2, which we hope is an error (rather than the "Dino" part being the error in the listing)

Lastly, Oreo Bot sent us proof of finding SS 36 The Last Knight Drift (with baby Dinobots) at Meijer in Nomal, IL. This toy was only available though online retailers so far in the US. It was $30 USD.

Probably next time, if they don't shoehorn another G1 leader into the line. The new leader mold of this wave is G1 Grimlock with Wheelie. Going by the previous releases, there should be one more entirely new leader class mold for 2021.

Even without it, as long as it is close enough it'll work for me

Even if they have to create a made up model of car like they did before,it still can look cool.

While I'd like Dino to be licensed, if Ferrari is going to be a pain in the butt about it then I'd be ok if they approximate it (they just hopefully get closer to the actual vehicle than SS Blitzwing does).

That does remind me though - RPMs were awesome! I have a bunch of them, but these were the ones I found nearby.

I also just finished painting up SS Blackout - It really is a good figure, but I'm eagerly anticipating the upgrade kit for those better hands. I'm also interested to see what they do with the mold for Grindor.

The last part of that line never sounded natural, only ever sounding needlessly cold and callous.

Transformers: The Movie should easily be able to be Studio Series. The way I see it, it might even keep Studio Series alive for a while longer. The 1986 Movie case (with a couple other characters who were IN the movie but not main cast members could be completed in a year, unless they pad it with other Bayverse characters concurrently.

Either way, TF:TM figures in SS wouldn't be some long ongoing thing, unless Hasbro plans to sprinkle them into that line (which I would agree would be bad).

RPMs were pretty cool, I got Jolt and Megatron, wanted more but still cool!

I'm excited to see Grindor. I'm also thinking about going back and grabbing KSI Sentry and Shadow Raider, they are really the only 2 figures I skipped that weren't just the same exact character (Ratchet, Starscream, Cogman)

I'd highly recommend both. I like both better then their original use.

They were facing an unknown, armed intruder. The threat had to be neutralized as fast and efficiently as possible. It was an appropriate response.

Said intruder had otherwise made no attempts at hostility up to that point. Telling the crew to get out and identity themselves would have been enough. Or if a more firm response was needed, "Have your crew step out or we will be forced to take action," (or other words of that effect) would have sufficed. There was no need to openly threaten murder on a party that was, as far as they knew, still innocent up to that point.

Don't forget that as far as the military was aware, the helicopter that Blackout transformed into was MIA presumed KIA for a couple weeks before it suddenly showed up again. And considering it'd been radio silent as it approached, it wouldn't be unreasonable to assume it may have been hijacked

This took place on a military base, so maybe the commanding officer was following protocol. We can disagree, but if I were in that position, I'd have the same mindset. Maybe I wouldn't use the phrase "kill you," but I would definitely make my intentions to that effect known. Maybe I'd say "neutralize you."

Anyway, remind me, will Grindor be a repaint of Blackout, with maybe a little retooling?

Comment by ZeroWolf Jun 10, 2020

No idea on if grindor will be a straight up repaint or retool at this point, all we have is a listing.

Comment by D-Maximal_Primal Jun 10, 2020

I'm thinking Grindor will be a repaint, but the new tooling will be Ravage (and maybe a Frenzy please? and maybe some hooks for Prime pretty please?)

IDToys are expecting Studio Series Overlord to be ready to ship on Friday, so I ordered next day delivery. Hopefully will be able to get some nice Devastator pics on Saturday!
