@TFHypeGuy @Dr_Lockdown I wanna say that a wave also includes the deluxes and leaders, but I don’t know for certain

@TYLERSTRON @Dr_Lockdown It's never consistent, sometimes a deluxe from a couple years ago weighs nothing compared to something today, sometimes it's the opposite. I just think it's important to highlight when something isn't ok. That Ironhide released in a wave by himself lol

I got a food scale and I was curious about this. Deluxe VS Voyager. I wonder which weighs more? If there's anything y'all want me to weigh lmk lol

@TFHypeGuy @Dr_Lockdown Not even voyager. Compare ER Cliff and Kingdom huffer to the new Wheelie, the parts count just isn’t there. It’s just mad when you also get figures like Skybyte that are outstanding at voyager. I get that budget is across a wave but it’s sooo noticable it hurts

@TYLERSTRON @Dr_Lockdown Pretty much, and this is what a warn about on twitter, accepting nonsense business practices. But I'm the crazy one, I think TF One alpha Trion is the biggest offense of how far they can bullshit it's consumers at the Voyager price point.

@TFHypeGuy @Dr_Lockdown Ironhide was certainly one of the first to be like ‘they’ve accepted it, we don’t need the accessories anymore. Him and Hot Rod are night and day, he’s got hollow hands!

@Dr_Lockdown This post isn't meant to insinuate anything, I was genuinely just curious 😭 I'm well aware weight and size aren't the only factors, but I feel Ironhide doesn't justify the price point at all, he needed to come with more accessories and have better engineering.

Micronus, Alchemist, Star Optimus, Liege Maximo, Alpha Trion and Quintus are all worse than Nexus (5 of those are good figures, 3 excellent, but still not as good as Nexus)

Never falling for this propaganda. There are at least 5 Primes that look worse than nexus

@LegoTim82 @DairyFruitbowl Generational clip use

Not to be a Doomer™️ but 2026 has got to be one of the worst years in Lego history. From the insidious Disney Shops (for $400), the problematic release of sets based on a rapist, the anti-imagination disgrace of smart play, and the increasing rise of displayslop. It’s bleak.

@raioyakibihn The feet too, randomly

よく見たら色や肩だけじゃない 顔と胸もキングダムから変わってる👀

@TFHypeGuy @Sliver_Nugget Nah that’s a fair thing to complain about, but also kinda nothing new

@TYLERSTRON @Sliver_Nugget I'm not complaining, I'm making an observation on the figure. What I AM complaining about is mirage being stuck in an exclusive pack with figures I don't want for a 2nd time. But I didn't even make a post about it because people tell me I complain too much.

No The original release used clear plastic, meaning they had to use a lot of the paint budget painting the clear blue This doesn’t “confirm” that Hasbro excluded it just for the sake of excluding it. I’m sure the designers WANTED to include it but didn’t have the budget

@TFHypeGuy @Sliver_Nugget But also bear in mind that Ironhide came out like 4 years ago, bluestreak 6 years, mirage, 5 years. Those are big enough gaps for there to be plenty of collectors who don’t have them. It just feels like a nothing thing to complain about, it’s not an exciting release, but not bad

@TFHypeGuy @Sliver_Nugget They also put gaps in them because of how the production runs work. And if you know there’s going to be the version you want later, just don’t get the first one?

@TFHypeGuy @Sliver_Nugget Because you’re saying doing them clear to then do them not clear is bad? That is contrary because having both of those as options isn’t bad?

@TYLERSTRON @Sliver_Nugget When did I say anything Contrary to that? You can get options, there can also be a pretty clear profit motive behind it😭

@TFHypeGuy @Sliver_Nugget Because it’s really awful to give people options? I prefer clear, but I know a bunch of people like opaque

@Sliver_Nugget We ain't being fr here, 'yea guys they ran out of budget or put a small yellow stripe on the side of the van, this totally isn't so they can sell a "fixed" version later' Hasbro wanted the windows clear so they can make it not clear later, it's been their thing a while now.

Are you joking? Bare in mind that this is FORTY POUNDS LESS THAN RRP

@FansprojectFan @scottyk411 It doesn’t have a bottomless budget, they’ve literally said this

@scottyk411 @TYLERSTRON They have issues but they still look like the things they're supposed to be in both modes. Killbison is a foot. He has one extra joint to account for. This was a figure set with a bottomless budget thanks to being a crowdfund. Pick any pre-AOTP combiner limb, tank or non.

Magmatron got done because he’s dinosaurs, and Haslabs mean we get better figures We just complaining about everything, they’re just toys, buy them or don’t

@FansprojectFan @scottyk411 The Devastator limbs have worse problems: low articulation, lack of paint and detail, and they just look and feel awful

@scottyk411 @TYLERSTRON That doesn't mean he has to look terrible. He's a tank. They are inherently a brick. The Haslab one looks worse than both the G1 toy and most of his combiner tank colleagues. Also the Devastator legs are still on shelves and don't have the problems he has.

@bluekunt @matpolloy People can enjoy multiple things

@matpolloy How is it possible to enjoy Andor but also enjoy the sequels. That is insane.

If I see one more post about how AotC is better than the ST.

@FansprojectFan The transformers team said it on a livestream that that’s why it wasn’t a difficult sell to corporate, people haven’t just made up that info

Who has given people the marching orders to state confidently that Magmatron is the better sell because "dinosaurs always sell and combiners/jets/tanks don't."? Are we smoking crack, folks? Are we really pretending these two didn't shelfwarm and go on deep discount?

@FansprojectFan But I won’t say that killbison is great regardless 😂

@TYLERSTRON "Haslab means we get better figures." Buddy have you SEEN Haslab Killbison?

@FansprojectFan Liokaiser as a package is way better than what we would have received as a retail release. Pretending otherwise is mad
