And now I think I get those block head minicons, They're supposed to be hammers, yah?

Wouldnt Battle Core Prime be better for Nova?



This guy looks more like the type to turn into Thunderclash since he has that colour scheme going on.

That Windblade does look very good. she has a little bit bigger legs and she looks better proportioned and I love it! She is a buy!

And I cannot wait for minicon weapons. So much want!

Definite pass for me, they took away paint and articulation

But hopefully she is less fiddly and a bit more fun to keep in bot mode

Not really. I saw that it was common that there were some bits that just didn't want to stay put in either mode (like the heels) that made the figure a bit fiddly and a bit difficult at times, but is wasn't bad though by any stretch. I still like her, but she's not as fun to transform and try to stand as others

Meh, guess I'm the only one that has no problems with her; I will say that the thigh design on her is total garbage, those little ornamental prongs near her pelvis just trash her poseabillity

I wasn't the biggest fan of Generations Windblade due to issues with her mold. The figure looks nice in robot mode, the jet mode looks good with the exception of the noticeable feet. It's the posability and the issues with her heels that make the toy a bit frustrating to handle.

Delta Magnus wrote:I just don't get the point of the shampoo bottles. They can't transform. They don't have the increased articulation that non-transforming Transformers often have. They don't have the increase in accuracy, sculpture and paintwork that minimally articulated figures often have. And they aren't even that cheap. If they were hugely poseable or gorgeously painted or extremely cartoon accurate or only £2 I might understand. But as is? There is literally no point to getting them over a Warrior class figure or even a one-step. I'm no economist, but there is absolutely no way that continuing to make these...things makes any sense for Hasbro. It decreases the budget they have for other lines and it takes up space on store shelves that could be used by stuff that will actually sell.

Not that I know of. They just remolded all the molds to make Mad Max autobots with the typical Bee repaint. Nothing like different themed minicon groups

Oh come on, you're older than me but you don't recognize a Captain Planet reference when you see one?

The Point Glarryg was making was that the RID line has turned into a bunch of redecos. And I was saying thats pretty much what the Prime line became in beasthunters. Sure, there was some remolding but it was basically using the same molds and selling them again under a different theme.

The only captain planet i know is the one by Don Cheadle. I guess he wasnt that popular in Canada. Unlike Ms Frizzle and the magic schoolbus.
