sorry, I just couldn't understand anything he was saying.

I'm from England and yeah, it's a bit impenetrable

Edit - A friend suggested they might have a slight speech impediment

Hope this isn't the first step in them canceling my order as other had warned happened to them in the past.

So the first email they sent me yesterday said the release date had been changed to 2/27, but backordered to 3/6. Now I've just received another email saying backordered to 3/16. Really hope this order doesn't get canceled.

Picked some stuff up from Target on the last day of the sales. Cyberverse turned out to be a much bigger deal than I thought it would be, so some important characters needed toys got, no matter the quality!

i'm glad Dead End and the Scraplet are my only 2 scouts, they are not that good, but i'm glad to have Dead End, he ended up being my favorite con! Soundwave is pretty alright, he's not great, but he will do. I loved him in Season 3. I just wish his faceplate was the same as the show model, I'm contemplating shaving it town and painting the eyes red to match the show model.

Repugnus is wonderful, that is what the 1-steps were supposed to be, I love him. the beast mode is super cute, and the transformation is great. I love how you can't really see the robot mode is beast mode. This is the 1 step we always needed.

Now to hunt down the remainder of the Resistance and the other cyberverse guys I want:
-1-step Whirl
-the 4 final deluxes / Maccadam
-Warrior Hammerbyte
-Ultra Rack n' Ruin
-Ultimate Iaconus
-Meteorfire
-Wildwheel



With them, I now have the con half of the Resistance!


And the irony of getting Repugnus while wearing a Repugnus!

while I wish he had a mouth, the con symbol really helps the look here. I adore him despite being a bad toy. Good characterization in the show will do that!



Also, it's really cool to see the height different from beast to robot mode for Repugnus. They nailed him.

And I predict that in the next TV show, Grotusque will finally get a new animated show model and toy, following Twinferno (RiD2015) and Grotusque (Cyberverse)

Nice group, you should have included the pieces of Maccadams you've got so far

A friend of the site, Michael, sent some cool news our way. He spotted the new Cyberverse Warrior figures, Starscream and Hammerbyte. These warrior figures seem to have more articulation than before and that Strarscream has a nice new cybertronian alt mode. These were found at a Walmart in Florida. These are part of a rebranded Cyberverse line called Bumblebee Cyberverse Adventures. Yearly rebranding is common in longer toylines to let stores know that these toys are new.

If you find these toys, let the community know through our forums.

Funny thing is, despite the better quality and good looking toy, I have no interest in actually getting a toy of this Starscream

Here's Hammerbyte by the way. Was more concerned about Starscream.

I want that Starscream but I’ll do what I did with Bee and gunna hold off in the hopes they do an actual Deluxe that’ll do him justice. I made that mistake with Optimus and it still annoys me.

If they do make a Deluxe Starscream, it'll probably be in his normal body rather than that upgraded one.

At this point, I don’t give a bleep, just give me a good, well articulated, properly painted, accurate Deluxe-ish Starscream based on his appearance in Cyberverse. And then pump Seekers out of it while they’re at it.
