God I forgot about the Scorponok baby shit (or maybe more accurately blocked it out of my brain)

Wow, sure is a wonder sales fell off a cliff during this period
And you know the absolute degenerates finished that issue and stood up from their work desk and dusted their hands off in pride and said, "Good work!"
I HOPE UNICRON TAKES YOU ALL FIRST! 💢


Let me bring the silly back before Thundercracker ruins it.

I swear that was done because he's another one of those people who hate the weebshit side of Transformers...which is a sizable proportion but I swear they sound like they have the hate plague when they talk about that part.
Do people hate japformers shit JUST because of fucking kiss players? I personally like the headmasters and the other g1+ cartoons because its more content and they generally get to do more shit hasbro wouldnt, like kill MORE beloved characters (including optimus for the second time.)

Also ive been wanting to get Bingo toys Jazz, it looks pretty fantastic in both modes and its decently priced.
 
I laugh at the scapler memes some TF-influeners share when I bet they're the same fuckers that do it. I mean, I get trying to get a quick buck TO A POINT but if you're that strapped for cash then get a fucking job like the rest of us.

Went to Hellmart today--besides little gift ideas via the metal figs, there was jack. I'm not paying nearly 30 bucks for Studio Series unless they have more accessories. Prima Prime would've came home with me but his ass was 35 fucking dollars.

I hope my local game shop has better selection--another tranny lost their job and I know for a fact that he had some figures he claimed he would never sell off.

Cough them up, sodimite.

My money situation spending wise is really fucking tight the last few weeks due to reasons I found out about the last month or so that pissed me off I have no control over, leading to me having to watch one time production run figures from last year that got a small restock with the remaining stuff they missed gradually get eaten up by scalpers, HOWEVER... I FINALLY PAID FOR SHIPPING ON THE THIRD PARTY FIGURE I PRE ORDERED A FUCKING YEAR AGO OR SO BEFORE THE DEADLINE HIT TO SHIP. WAHOO! YEEPPEEE! IT'SA ME, MARIO! WAAAAA

It's cheaper to buy from china sellers on ebay than BBTS now due to the fucking 10-15 dollar price hikes that were initially tariff things but now say "doesn't include tarriff charge. In the off chance I might get another of the same figure to modify like a model kit for personal in-joke reasons I'll just have to pay both shipping and whatever else shit up front. I'll hold off on it for now. Hopefully I can get another while they're still affordable and not 55 plus 5-15 dollar shipping like some people want for it.
 
The only transformers adjacent shit I own is the three only mangas, the OG Bayverse Movies + Bumblebee, some misc small toys and shit, A BIG Pop Figure of Unicron thats limited edition from 2022 event that was being sold at gamestop (I have more for DBZ characters,) and a Robosen Voice Activated Optimus Prime I got as a birthday present that stays in his box. He's missing one of his side grills(?) that is detatchable and retatchable on it. Oh and the 160$ Optimus Prime Lego set that broke when trying to move and I finished it, so I might redo it.

Yeah, I waste all my money (the recent stuff I listed were birthday gifts from years ago.) on Dragon Ball Merch now, but I wonder if there is any Model Kits for Transformers as I am getting into them.

There have been a number over the years, especially the last decade. Actually a good few right now of decent quality, the big 2 you can get "kind of easily" are the blokees and flametoys kits. I say "kind of" because they're the only ones places seem to carry and both increased their prices this year with tariffs as the excuse. The blokees ones have the most "variety" but are simple in construction for the smaller scaled kits (which are also blind boxed) Flametoys kits are weird because some places stock them well but only one or 2 kits and inconsistently.


I really still am pissed over blokees increasing the price for buying a whole box of the smaller kits from $45-50 to $80-$90. I will never let that down.
 
I forgot that the IDW continuity died screaming lmao. Who the fuck thought robo-mpreg and cyber sodomy would sell well.
It died, rebooted, and then I dunno what happened with the reboot because they stopped making it but i don't think the reboot version had cyber mpreg just cyber depression.

Ah hell no that costs too much, I already get buyers remorse for buying replacements for my 3DS Charger and I still haven't received my replacement part for the other leg of Cell from Dragon Ball so he remains unfinished inside his box. I really hate how we have to pay out of pocket for the most outrageous prices. I'll just go to my Local Hobby Store and see if they have anything, they have a lot of stuff other then the aforementioned Model Kits.

The larger 5-inch Blokees kits are ~$20 each, the 8-inch kits are ~$40. On ShowZStore a sealed case of 9 of the 4-inch blind-boxed is~$65, a sealed case of 12 of the 2-inch figures is $30. A sealed case of the 2/4 inch blind-boxed figures will include every non-chase figure from that wave.

Not to mention the 'copy crew transported to another universe' was a fucking cop-out and the ending was just pathetic and depressing. I read it out of morbid curiosity and felt like I was dragged to a funeral I didn't want to attend.

Ratchet dies and his spark is in hell--the end. What kind of bullshit final was that?? There was no hope felt at all.

The $80 is just for the 4 inch blind box ones. the price hikes on the others seems less nightmarish.

Yolopark also makes decent "model kits" but they're more like unassembled hyper detailed figures. They have started putting out unpainted "budget" versions with no electronics or extra accessories you could likely paint like normal model kits (and I think that's the intent given they're more normal model kit price)

I wish they included the alt faces for the megatron at least. ESPECIALLY since there's an angry face on some promo pics for the standard release that doesn't even come with the fucking thing.

Still they look really nice (and are also like 7-8 inches tall)

I remember having the 20th anniversary DVD release of the 86 movie and the commercials collected had censored faces due to retarded ID laws despite said kids being from the 80s. TBF, the commercials were lower quality than the ones you could get on Youtube
didn't Rhino have a fuckton of problems on their stuff?
