>>5923892>Also no one forced anyone to buy the repaint wavesAnd then we give up hope on the brand and fuck off elsewhere.
Look, I'm a seeker collector, I fucking love these bastards, only because they were given proper establishment, and some retools I'm fine with, hell I bought UW menasor AND bought hasbro's optimus maximus wave (sales are one hell of a drug), I honestly think they still could of done better here, with shit like not blastoff (don't argue about "he fits the theme better", he's still a lame redeco), the car-former retools (not even a new body plate between the offroad retools, really?), we aren't forced to buy the repaints and new head retools, they still could of done better, infact alot of the line WAS mostly retools and redeco's.
We got the superion body, menasor body, defensor and skylynx body, we virtually got only 4 voyagers with bare minimum retools between them, the leaders were fucking shit (megatron body then nothing but repaints, they could of mixed up the leaders by having maybe one more leader body, granted I'm not a fan of the leader seeker retool so I admit bias), and the deluxes...
>jet body>offroad body>race car body>breakdown bodySome got great retools, others, or should I say, MOST of them only got new heads.
I liked the line but its quite clear hasbro decided to test us and really cut back on budget, which is why I have alot more faith in TR, 3 waves, apart from qc we haven't had too much of new hat syndrome, yet.
Yes I'm aware of mister orange and breakaway, but even toys I don't want like soundwave impress me because of how distinct they are.
All in all, cw was fun, combiners worked and looked they part, but their individuality was minimal compared to TR
