I don't think Bluestreak's backstory was ever consistent in any canon.

I think the "sole survivor of Praxus" was from the old British Marvel comics continuity, although it's Bluestreak's most popular backstory in fandom lore/fanfiction (like Starscream being the Winglord of Vos). In Aligned continuity I'm pretty sure Bluestreak was from Iacon, not Praxus (& even if he did, Praxus wasn't completely annihilated/there was survivors).

I speak out of struggling long term memories, but didn't marvel do those character books in the 1980s about this a little? I forgot. Y'all mentioned some of his history written down, including making me wonder how Hound knows what a demon is.

If you're mad your art made it onto the accursed Farms, read my screen name retard. I'm just repping the crybully Con you guys seem to love so much. You talk it, I walk it.



The type of shit Screamer himself would do/endure. Retards attract retards, no?

They could, but with Transformers one having failed and Michael Bay presumably returning, it looks like this will be a mirage more than a tangible creation, if it even will be. Since Transformers one failed Hasbro has stopped financing movies and sold off their film's division(? At least i think that's what it was.) Really the only thing that's holding the franchise by now is the older media and the current Skybound comics which will have a official adaptation somewhere in the future. At least things are looking somewhat better than they did in the early 2020's (prices not withstanding) but Transformers still has a road of recovery remaining and the CEO claimed he wants to focus on games (big IF there) which could either be good or bad. But anything Hasbro says should largely not be taken at face value

only if One got off the ground.
the sequel would be either the outbreak of the decepticon war or them taking on the quints, but now that is in the water they are re thinking everything with the movies and shows, now that earthspark is a big flop they got no real media plans either.

the reason cyberworld exists is the have something on the shelves, otherwise the brand would look a lot weaker, but i wonder when they would cook up in a short time to get back off the ground.

corpo will try to be safe(almost all the industry is crawling back to "safe") so expect to go back to 2007 bayhem, even though the biggest problem is the price of the toys.

I wonder how much shit blokees is gonna manage to get to making with these blind boxed model kits.

I actually saw 2 unopened full wave boxes at a walmart and passed them up because no fucking money but they were actually not transformers one wave 1 blokees for once too, and they aren't the "post tariff" prices while everything else is so voyagers are now near 50 fucking dollars I HATE IT I HATE IT WHY IS IT INCONSISTENT WITH THE ROLLOUT OF THIS BULLSHIT AAARGH

Anyways yeah priced out of everything right now save for some funny things but not going into all that.

While I do like that they're redoing the characters to match the articulation on the most recent waves I also feel like something's a little lost stylistically. Like I went after and got a used copy of the first wave megatron back before they started selling these in the US and I don't think I would have done that for this one as nice as it looks.

There's just something to this first one that made it stand out to me compared to other model kits.

You know this would be neat to have if ss86 megatron ever stocked anywhere by me and the price wasn't marked up to fucking seventy dollars. Also oddly aside from the stand the rest of it seems to be copying stuff smaller third party guys that make the 3d printed parts have been doing. Big reason why I ended up getting a used romulus a while back aside from him just being a slightly more stable and smaller masterpiece megatron was because it was CHEAPER to get that because scalpers were hoarding the ss86 one which is a lot less complex of a figure and doesn't scale well with anyone aside from the 100 dollar voyager optimus despite being very cool looking. yes I know it's a retread yes I am still angry.

Maybe I'll get the shoulder fix DNA kit for the armada megatron once I got money again, will likely have to do it from the chinese ebay sellers that I got the other recent upgrade kits from last time I ordered some. Prices are higher due to tariff shit being included int he price but it's nowhere near the "tariff inclusion" price of places like BBTS and unlike there things aren't just in preorder hell loop for a whole year.

BBTS DOES have the third party chug scale tidal wave that becomes megatron's armor and can fit inside the titan class one on pre order for a "reasonable" price though so maybe I'll get that if I have money sometime too, though 80 is usually the spot where I don't buy action figures because money.
