>>8787457Yeah, I guess redeco makes sense. I mean, I don't expect to scratch Red Alert and end up with Sideswipe, that'd be insane. That doesn't happen with anyone.. does it..?
>My pet theory is that they would have continued the micro play pattern in Kingdom but decided that they wanted to focus on the Beast Wars celebration aspect insteadThat does make sense, but..
>shifting a bunch of G1 characters to exclusivesThen why keep neat-looking Inferno and Huffer? Would Inferno have been part of Earthrise, or were they remnants of "we can't really shift them into SS86 since they weren't even part of the movie(?)"?
>the second halves of the patrolstfw the other half of the race track patrol, including its leader, is included in a 6-pack with obscure (to me, at least) references and complete randos
It hurts. Also, more micromaster comboners (even a combining robot one day?) would have been fun. I thought/hoped they were teasing it with astro patrol, but them and the battle patrol, that was it..!!
Hope everyone gets and enjoys /ourguy/ Huffer, though. He's been shafted for so long..
>Pipes retool is inevitable>they're both obscure, shafted, and not really likable by mainstream standards, nor do they have glamourous altmodes>tfw they'd be bought by the checklist guys wanting an actual Huffer and Pipes, but that's about it - probably treated as well as they were in past lines, and even in G1I'm uh, not really sure if I can commit to buying both, but I'm tempted to grab Huffer, especially with a cheapo/clearance ER/Kingdom Prime. His Kreon was my Magnus when I was in dorms with like, near-zero main cast guys.. Once I gave him a black Inferno helmet and made his backpack hold his two guns like a smokestack, the tired engineer was a reluctant warrior, leader, and hero.
Will post their DW and their Marvel bios, poor guys..
