The new previews with the unwanted fucking dead Primes hijacking the line next year, makes me realize that I won't be buying anything but Galaxy Version Transformers next year.

Between the G2 crap, the god-awful Rocklords garbage, and bullshit Animated and RiD 2014 crap and the dead Primes, is Hasbro trying to tank the line?

Maybe, but you should at least try to come up with something - it's not like any of your other choices have a better shot of happening.
Personally, I pick PotP Slash for Core.

I know it's never going to happen.

Not sure how much of the negative reception i’m seeing for Star Convoy is WEST GOOD EAST BAD vs actual complaints about the figure

I threw in a preorder because he’s awesome, but i do feel like the base mode needed more love

Considering they form the arms and the original truck mode was even more disjointed, I honestly can't even figure out how they'd make it viable.

I haven't seen much negative reception other than stuff about the price, then again I tend to automatically tune out any time I see someone calling him "Star Optimus Prime" so I might have just missed most of it.
I think he's just about perfect. The base mode complaints are understandable but honestly I'm just happy he can do everything the original toy can while also being big and articulate and utterly mogging both the Gen Selects and MMC Star Convoys. Only thing that worries me is he's almost too perfect, like there might be some insane, never before seen QC issue that has to kick in to balance things out.

I think my only possible issue is being a titan means Grandus and Sky Garry are just that much less likely, as little as we might have gotten them to begin with considering we still don't have an Armada Jetfire

I don’t know, i feel like this could open the door for them if anything. If we do get them, I think the most realistic and unfortunate scenario is that we’ll be shelling 250$ for them on haslab unfortunately

I was able to resist the in-house price gouging that is pulse with Star Saber and RiD prime, but a proper Grandus would be too good to pass up

I wouldn't count em out, otherwise it'd be really weird to make a new Micro Trailer that has the linking ports on the sides with no plans on releasing more of them TO link together. It just feels like such a Sky Garry specific gimmick. Unfortunately they'd probably be Haslabs if they did with the stupid combiner frames eating up the Commander slot for the foreseeable future.

what's the deal with the tilted-in wheels anyway
why did they give that to Battle Convoy. it doesn't get them out of the way, it actually makes them stick out more. and it gives a more feminine appearance.

If you mean the wheels in his hips they are on hinges to allow them to swing up to allow his legs to move out to the side. There are tabs on the back of bumper (green circle) that lock them in place for vehicle mode but you have to put the wheels up slightly if you want them unlocked with the bumper flush in bot mode.

I have a feeling we'll get him. I doubt we'll see Overload, though, at least anytime in the next few years. The one potential exception I see is if they use the new titan class size and price point to do an Overload + Jetfire double pack, especially since Jetfire gives purpose to Overload's otherwise useless alt-mode trailer.

Correct G1 prime has no outward leg movement. His hips move from vertical to 90 degrees back for truck mode and he has small knee bed and that's it.

In an ideal world, Sky Garry would be a commander and Grandus would be a titan. In an even more ideal world they'd also make a Commander New Rodimus that could combine with Star Convoy to make Supernova Convoy but that is even more of a never ever than a mainline Grandus

Man I was just asking out of interest, since I figure I'll never watch the whole G1 show. I watched about the first season but it's all just flashing lights and action with very little substance to most of the episodes.
