Tidal Wave looks like shit. He's just a big robot (which does do a very good job of looking like Tidal Wave from the show) into three boats that have been stripped of their gimmicks. He's been reduced to a bunch of giant blocks. The "combined" mode with Megatron is now just slapping some gimmickless blocks onto Megatron. It does nothing.

Not that one should have to make those decisions on a price point like this

This is how I feel about even a lot of Transformers I really, really like these days. Kind of sad. I'd like the prices to go down, but also not the quality to drop and yes I know its a pipe dream.

I take solice in the fact that at the very least I'm not a Star Wars or Marvel collector. Those poor bastards get so much less for very similar prices.

This is a really good point and I think part of why I put up with Transformers as much as I do.

With a Transformer you're getting essentially two toys and a puzzle in one toy, regular action figures are just that and don't really "do" anything else in comparison except look cool. Maybe I'm looking at it wrong but one has always interested me far more than the other has.

sometimes looking at price increases, I compare it to video games.. games are actually way cheaper now, especially if you compare how much more complex the product is, than in the classic days. but it's still annoying how many corners they cut on a product i'm paying for.

star wars and marvel toys are wild because transformers have to each be uniquely engineered to transform in entirely different ways, and unless you do a repaint or a retool that's all you get out of that mold.

Meanwhile Star Wars/Marvel shit is all on standard reusable bucks, yet cost comparable prices.

This is a really good looking Optimus, but is it a good toy? Is it fun to transform, do the plastic feel sturdy? The whole business.

He is an alright guy. His transformation is classic prime with some extra bits. The plastic feel solid but he just feels light due to all the hollow bits. He does look really unique so if you like him snag him that's why I did.

This. It's actually the whole reason Chima existed - Lego was originally supposed to make a Thundercats line, but when that idea sunk, they decided to so a pivot and reuse some of the ideas and molds that had already been made to create their own thing from it. Contrary to common belief, it turned out rather successful - it got a cartoon that lasted three whole seasons, a few video games, and a ton of Lego sets as well as some other merch.

No one likes Armada, no one that I know of back then or even now knows Armada exist, it's only G1 and Beast Wars. Speaking of, Armada was a huge step down from Beast Wars from both the toyline and the cartoon itself (in terms of tone), it only managed to make money from toddlers who didn't know what good toys are meant to be. And since it exist in its own timeline and canon Hasbro literally gives jack shit about it and focuses only on G1 and Beast Wars. So yeah Armada failed miserably.

I just picked up the spaceship-whatever Megatron and Ironhide and they haven't left my desk since. Solid little dudes.

It's part of Hasbro's strategy to target the broader and modern audiences (i.e dumb kids) which clearly failed because the downgrade from Beast Wars was huge.

The early 2000s was full of failed updates in general now I think about it; Transformers Armada, 2003 TMNT, The Batman, G.I. Joe Sigma 6 all examples of how not to do a modern reboot of beloved 20th century classic franchises.

Technically the kids who grew up with the original G.I. Joe have all died off, only the fans who grew up with ARAH are the only ones remaining keeping the franchise afloat. But yes I do agree, the 80s and 90s was the beginning and end of the golden era. The early 2000s was the rise of modern zoomer slop, that's one of the reason everyone's favourite show happened in the 80s (which piled on to the 90s)

I hate how good the dinobots could have been if they didn't insist on them being a combiner now (although I do like that we got an anklyo out of it, real monkey's paw there).

Swoop is solid and Slag is just good enough imo, but without the need for the combiner engineering 100% he would have had fucking elbows, probably a normal gun and/or sword. As soon as they try to make a figure do anything else, especially at a low price point, they start getting reeeal stingy with the joints lol

Yeah I really wanted to get the Dinobots but they were just too weirdly proportioned. The combiner looks good with the 3P stuff added onto it, but it wasn't enough for me to rip my hair out getting anxiety over finding all of them. It worked out because I only saw a few of them in my stores locally.

Speaking of core class Dinobots, I can't wait to actually see the Core Class BW Dinobot for this line. I'm genuinely curious what he's going to be like and why they even made him. I would almost venture to guess he *could* be TM2 Dinobot since he's basically the same transformation and would be easy to do and would kind of scale with their Megatron, but I think they would have named him "Dinobot II" or something in the leaked listing.

Is that teally fair to say when the movie made up its own plot? G1 was basically "aliens from a distant planet fighting each other for an energy crisis crash on earth and carry over the war there." That's Transformers. UT had their own plots to add to that, but that's G1's basic plot.

I just told you most transformers use that plot. It's Transformers basic plot. Just substitute energy for mcguffins like Minicons, Cyber Keys, the Alspark, Ancient tech, etc, for the two factions to fight over and that's Transformers.

Personally, I like it the most when exploration and mysteries are involved, like Armada and Cybertron, Prime, the movies, and RoTB, plots that usually involve some sort of discovery uncovering the Transformers connection to Earth being deeper than just a coincidence, because while that works for a basic weekly cartoon like G1, it needs something more for serialized story telling, which is why I really enjoyed Cybertron and Prime.

I don't even like Minicons, but after getting Powerlinx Hot Shot and that Shattered Glass 2 pack with the Minicon, I love these things in Legacy. I feel like with the engineering that was out at the time, having hollow forearms is actually a crime on this figure. We know that there's definitely room for a folding panel and they didn't do it for this. And I know it's cope, but I 3D Printed shoulders in the color they should be and a knife and it adds so much to the figure. Shame they couldn't spare the plastic. I don't even buy Tidal Wave combo as the excuse for the shoulders because they're loose as fuck without the 3D printed ones.

I loved my Armada Megs as a kid, and love tanks, but idk, for me the Legacy versionjust doesnt seem worth the pricetag. Big sure but the transformation is G1 levels of simple (moreso probably) and since theres no gimmicks or even an included minicon thats all you're left with. I'm not one of the more gimmick focused people, but for $55 at retail it doesn't even compare to the other current Leader offerings in terms of accessories and complexity. For a Voyager's price though I'd be down.

Paddles doesn't have a proper reference image since he came from a text story so it would be a bit difficult. Maybe after they finish the 86 Dinobots they will go crazy and have big versions of Slash, Scorn, Scarr, Paddles, and some Pachycephalosaurus (none of the names used for one in Transformers match the S naming system, and it seems less significant than Paddles for breaking. Maybe recycling Scowl or Spindle to a different dinosaur would work.)

the show makes it clear that the organics were(initially) just skin deep, digesting food was more like shoving food in a processing tank and any "expelling" was the equivalent to exhaust(though it was played for gas humor). Its a happy accident but it ties into fuel being such a big issue in G1. Processing organic matter for energy is a way to fight energy shortages.
As far as the skin healing, the writers said they work on a simple nanomachine repair idea which is why they could survive some wounds. Basically a self-repair system. if it got too damaged they'd need the repair chambers, but they have a small healing factor that covers sealing things.

I'm 32 and it was right up my alley, honestly anon just seems kinda soft. I never thought of BW as grossout compared to other grossout stuff from the time. They were closer to old warriors wearing pelts and stuff.
Always thought BWII Magnaboss looked like William wallace.

the writing was great and serious. the small humorous moments were, I think, Canadians just not understanding how to not be babyish
just like the Canadian voice actors in X-Men, who had a difficult time understanding they shouldn't do "A cartoon voice" but just like a good voice that an actor would do. They worked on it with the main cast, but the ancillary guys never really got the hint.

I didnt watch Beast Wars and the UT til last year, I think you're gay man.
Beast Wars was great sure, but in regards to the overarching plot it definitely takes from the Marvel comic a bit too much: ie, the show feels like an ongoing comic that has to keep going no matter what, but doesn't really have a tightly-written narrative structure. It's got super solid individual episodes, but they don't tie into something greater than the sum of their parts: if anything, starting with S2 it just feels like the plot began going in circles and the status quo never really changed, it kept going on bc they knew it needed to go on: the pacing really suffered, not to mention how poorly-implemented some of the new toys were (TM2 Cheetor was an out-of-nowhere character shift that made no difference overall in the story, and Dinobot II can be taken out entirely without changing anything - if anything he undermined Dinobot's arc by just "doing it but again").

Micron Legend and Super Link meanwhile are certainly with faults; they each have 20 extraneous eps as their narratives were only worth 30 ea. and they both suffer from rushed animation, and horrible rushed dubs that blow out every existing problem even worse, ruining their reputation for decades on. However, at least ML+SL HAVE tightly-written overarching plots. They're still easily the most mature and nuanced character writing the franchise ever had, and gave very deep thought to the overall pacing outside of the tacked-on 20 eps at the beginning n end. You speak like someone who read the biased wiki summaries of the dubs and never actually formed opinions yourself. Galaxy Force is much more lighthearted and is disconnected meanwhile, but I can't fault it for being simple fun.

Additionally, I've never handled toys from BW or UT in their primes, but I had several SL/GF repaints from the 07 years, n they still hold up today. Chunky plastic, great articulation, fun transformations n features, and lots of character.

Sure, and yknow I'll also admit that ML+SL were probably hurt back in the day by being so serialized; I remember hearing that the Energon dub's airing was all over the place, making the plot unnecessarily hard to follow if you were watching it new (compounding other issues like the dub fully excising entire arcs and even a whole episode), prolly making it a miserable experience.
Beast Wars likely got away with putting all its points into the episodic plots basket simply because it complimented how TV worked, lawl.
At the end of the day I like both if that wasn't clear, I just find it worth pointing out the strengths and flaws of each fairly, and all.

Starting in 2006, they shifted their good designers from the TV show toys onto the "collectors" line for older kids/adults. Classics (Henkei in Japan), which became Universe, which became Generations, and stayed that way since has been where the actual quality went.
Until a few years back when they rolled out "Studio Series" which often got top tier designers because it was all about getting higher quality figures for the live action movies, since they had been getting safe, watered down toys, but the fans were adults now and wanted better stuff.

TL:DR Hasbro realized they could sell more toys if they made some low-end ones that kids like, and some quality ones that more responsible kids and kids-at-heart like

Yea I getcha; all of the G1/BW anime (incl. Car Robots) very much followed the pattern set by the G1 show, that being "light-hearted action comedies". ML & SL were the only times they really went hard into deep, nuanced character studies.
Personally, I haven't seen any of the G1 anime in full yet, but I actually really like the BW anime trilogy. Now, BWII was lame imo, the animation was really cheap even for the time and I wasn't fond of half the cast for being very generic anime comedy tropes - though I really loved Scuba, Megastorm & Galvatron, and of course Starscream & BB. They were real fun. Lio Convoy was a bit boring too, until Lio Junior showed up and Convoy suddenly began acting like a noncommittal father who doesn't want to pay child support, lmao.
By comparison, BWNeo was a huge improvement: the budget got a boost so they actually knew how to draw animals this time, I found the "new crazy planet every ep" setup fun, and the characters+comedy hit a lot more often than II's. Big Convoy being the edgy lone-wolf warhero who now has to tutor a group of young recruits he gradually grows attached to isn't a new concept, but it was still done well I think. Magmatron was surprisingly refreshing in how calm and levelheaded he was, made him and Big feel like the only adults in the room with how crazy the rest of the Preds were lol; he was pretty memorable for his presence. I also really loved Navi and esp D-Navi, who actually had cute/fun personalities compared to II's Navi.
Car Robots meanwhile was like a huge refinement of everything before: very fast-paced, bombastic action and snappy humor, fun character-based gags, and better art/animation again too.

That's just my feelings though, ultimately how much u like them will depend on your tastes heavily; I know lots who adore II, for example, while it mostly didn't click for me. But I really think Neo's overlooked, personally.

You mean more like 2014. The movie lines were absolutely getting the peak designers before AoE, you can tell in stuff like ROTF leader Optimus. Even gimmick toys like Battle Ops Leader Bumblebee had elements that would be used on the MPs in the coming years.
When RiD 2015 came out, Hasbro reps flat out said the plan was to make the Generations lines better and the kid's media lines lesser because in 10 years they could sell generations versions to the kids who grew up. With AoE Takara's website also featured a lot of designer interviews where they said it was their first toy

yeah that pissed me off. I had only gotten a couple movie toys, mostly only interested in the way-out designs like Ravage, but then suddenly DINOBOTS and i'm like aw hell yeah. and there's toys of them! and they're color-coordinated instead of bland metal like the movie, awesome. I'm so in.
aaaand they were hamstrung and babyish. and there's no way we're ever getting studio series versions of any of them but grimlock, whom they STILL have not gotten right in beast mode. Can't seem to figure out how to give him a neck, or a tail, or dinosaur-leg-shaped legs.

Yeah, but would’ve just preferred something totally different for a retool in her place in that case. Just feels like a wasted spot and more like a bit on retool than an actual decent representation of Chromia.

Unironically I think they fail to see that the reason some of the female bots are less popular is because they just don’t commit to doing them justice. We could have a voyager G1 Elita that takes transformation notes from SS86 Hot Rod and Legacy Override and end up with a fairly toon accurate look and no excessive kibble. Could easily be made into a Chromia retool. Easily could have Firestar with a similar scheme to Kup - just more streamlined to make the frame more feminine. Retool that into Lancer. Like we get slim transformers with little kibble - but that care of engineering is seemingly only reserved for male figures that they know are guaranteed to sell. I wish they would just stop making the cuts on the female bots and making “female bots don’t sell as well” a self fulfilling prophecy.

It's funny, at the time everyone liked Energon much more because it had articulation again. The Decepticon figures are at least ok, but some like Demolishor are very wonky. Gimmicks killed the Autobots.
Armada being bricks was frustrating back then, but these days it makes them almost charming as a weird outlier. Where as, so many G1 homages have come out and refined the engineering that Energon's G1-esque guys seem prehistoric.
People like to point out that Cybertron's original anime wasn't intended as a continuation, but the toys absolutely were and it's cool to see the evolution of some characters in engineering.

In regards to g1 anime,
Headmasters is a fascinating what if but uneven plot & animation, masterforce has good animation and is such a blatant sentai rip off it’s basically non canon (watching it will instantly cure a neurotypical viewer of ever wanting any of the Japanese G1 toys), and Victory is not even close to the other 2 in terms of its superiority.

Headmaster is such a boring slog of a series that it made me like Masterforce way more than what I would have liked it in a vacuum. It actually surprised me as I was expecting that one to be the worst one.

Victory is proto-yuusha and the first Transformers show I watched from start to finish as a kid so it just wins by default.

Reminds me - There’s a guy “Jizaitoys” that models his own figures and 3D prints them. He’s done Moonracer, Firestar and Greenlight to my knowledge. But his transformation schemes result in accurate robot modes and decent alt modes. Insane HasTak hasn’t looked to what he does for some inspiration on handling the G1 female Autobots yet. Even if the engineering required voyager price point they’d be phenomenal figures.

You fucking retard, Armada sold so well because it coasted hard into the Gotta Catch 'Em All Pokemon craze that still gripped kids at the time with the Minicons. Energon and Cybertron didn't sell as well, but none of them were failures by any means.

The toys were ugly bricks to us, but kids didn't care and they were the main demographic for Transformers so they sold very well.

Lying retard alert!!!!!

Armada was a huge hit; partly because unlike Robots In Disguise, the tie-in cartoon was on Cartoon Network and at least for the first 2/3rds of it (before Cartoon Network yanked it off the air and then burnt off the rest of the series at 5:30 AM in the morning), had a decent timeslot and regular airings. It also had the bonus of coming out just as the Dreamwave comics were coming out (even having a tie-in comic) and did so well that as others have said, Universe was launched to get more product on the shelf.

Energon sold so-so; but Universe product got over ordered, so the last couple of waves were under ordered plus the blotch rollout of the combiners messed shit up.

Cybertron had a ton of issues; too many G1 homages, key characters not being available until the end of the series, a TON of OC characters, and the basic line (and the beast planet ones at that) clogging shelves as peg warmers.

I mean, sure in the original they had to use some of the parts budget on making the cab transform separately, and giving him an action master gimmick, but it still shocks me that THIS is the most normal looking PMOP we've ever gotten.

Is this the new cope now that everyone caught in to the fact that Armada was a smash hit? RiD sold very well, it sold well enough that they extended the line way past it's initial quick filler role and were still releasing stuff well into Armada's run.

I'm rather sure the one on the right is fan-produced reference sheet. The one on the left might have been using a low-quality screenshot for the colors. Given that Chromia, Moonracer, and Firestar don't have the light grey default faces, I wouldn't be surprised if having a purple face occurs in their squad.

We *just* got that in 2015 running until the end of 2017.
Unless you somehow think RID, with it's radical redesign of every named character, and dozens of new characters, and completely new lore was somehow NOT original just because it used aligned continuity (which, itself was new and original)

If you look behind ER/Laser prime legs you can even see they still have a pin driven in them. The same pin that would've been used for pivoting siege's wheels during transformation

How fortuitous. Got this cheesy chad for under $40 in Wal-Mart whilst on vacation. He fucking rocks; I'm probably not going to get any of the other SS Dinobots as A: I already have the Takara Volcanicus set and B: whilst Snarl looks great, Sludge is a bit "eh" and Slag (my favourite) got the short end of the stick, but I'm so glad I got this lad. Only real issues are no sword and I wish the gun pointed forwards in dino mode storage. That aside, 10/10.

I'm a big G2 fan so I'm probably gonna be grabbing him too, but I'm not sure if I'm going to get both him and S86 Grimlock. We'll see how much of a completionist I feel like being once the reissue of 86 happens. I will say I got Slug as a "fuck it they havent got anything better" buy at a Walmart and he really is awesome. The transformation is very cool and the figure is great in both modes, and both big and solid. Well worth the price, if you are ever inclined to get more dinosaurs.

Also installed the upgrade on Megatron (and trimmed off the stopper on his turret mechanism) and holy shit he's gone from a flawed but respectable 7/10 to a solid 9/10. Installation is a bit fiddly but it's so worth it.

Fair enough, I found his dino mode shape a bit weird-looking. Then again I am a bit autistic about that sort of thing.

Yeah it is a weird dino shape, but it k8nd of always was lol. The original Dinobots are based on less modern dinosaur interpretations after all. But at least he does have some posability in that mode, and the clumsy gun storage kind of makes up for the weird gap. I need to grab more dinobots soon, probably going to be G2 Grimlock next.

I find them a bit too 'obviously a toy' and it also really irks me how they tried to recycle a ceratopsian body for a mammoth. Transmutate I could accept, because her scanner clearly just fucked up extra hard and thought bones were an animal. and Tricranius I headcanon as a side-effect of Megatron's G1-spark-enhanced endragonation, Like in addition to scanning a fossil dragon or whatever, it raised the dead and made the bones all lava-ish.

in fairness megatron only called him that once, it was him kinda mocking him.. and it's not any stupider than a lot of the rest of the show
the design itself is okay, it's just a little weird.. they couldn't make the feet transform? even by swiveling around? they're human feet which is also weird. his beast mode is superfluous, and his vehicle modes are.. a stretch. and the colors are weirdly garish. yet I dunno, something about him.

The only way they're off is that the saturation of the blue parts is increased a bit. I have the cyberbee from the original (thrift store find) and the claw plastic is the exact same color between OG and Vintage.

obviously, from context: way off of the original toy. it would make no sense to say 'the stock photos make it look way off from the new rereleased vintage one, which I have not seen, and am asking questions about'
the first reply "The only way they're off..." which any reasonable person would continue to understand means "from the original toy"
Somehow anon's crossed wire thought I was somehow asking whether the stock photos were inaccurate to the vintage toy, which, yes, in a roundabout way, asking whether the changes-from-the-original viewed in the photo is accurate to what happened IS asking if the photo is accurate.. but that's one hell of a leap to make.

To clarify:
- That post, as written and as perceived by others, in no way whatsoever involves the original toy in its question. Internal intent does not matter, only what is actually communicated.
- The stock photo does not depict Vintage Scorponok as having black plastic. At all.
- The only difference between the stock photo and the actual toy of Vintage Scotponok is a slight difference in saturation of the blue plastic used for the claws, and any other parts using the same plastic. The grey is the same. The red is the same.

Thinking about it again, if they still consider the Spinister mold in "use" they could go for dodgy Airachnid or Rescue Bots Academy Whirl, and Quickshadow is rather splashable.
It seems like the ones that are based on convention exclusives get released as retailer/pulse exclusives, so Glyph, Nightracer, Roulette, Flareup, and so one probably will also be one of those.
Absolute death zone is Botanica, Thunderblast and most the remaining RiD15 females.

>what makes you think dinobot or megatron's beast forms were female?
Both were based off of the Jurassic Park dinosaurs - all of which were female in the movie. Dinobot's alt mode most certainly wasn't based off of a real velociraptor (the real thing was too small, and even in the 90's we knew their hands didn't work the way they do in the JP movie), and the head shape of megatron's alt mode is based off of Roberta/Rexy's, which in turn was modeled off of the real-world skull of Sue, a known female T. Rex fossil; male T. Rex skulls were taller, boxier, had more prominent brow ridges, and were believed to be adorned with osteoderms that may have been brightly colored to attract females. Compare Megatron's beast head to pic related - he's clearly using the female head, which isn't a surprise because - again - it was modeled (indirectly) off of Sue's.

first of all, absolute nonsense. no animal in history has had a SMALLER snout on males.
secondly, we do not possess the ability to tell the sex of a fossilized skeleton. there are hints sometimes, but this is no possibl- Well anyway the brow ridges, that part makes sense, yeah. and being boxier. but shorter? no way.
>Based off the jurassic park dinosaurs
why do you think that. and why would that affect the altmodes they scanned from fossils. which, need i remind you, are stone. which means they didn't scan any DNA, they just cobbled together a beast mode from other DNA they DID scan. Presumably from birds and reptiles. Which means they would make the altmode whatever sex they want. Hell they could get creative if they wanted, and make it neither or both. Though at some point there has to be real YZ chromosomes in there.
>size
when has that ever mattered? also Dinobot is WAY bigger than the JP raptors. he's nearly a utahraptor size.
>headshape of Megatron's altmode is
a complete fabrication by Mainframe, like all the faces on both modes. you are stretching hard.

and also sometimes reptile sex is affected by embryonic temperature instead of the Y or Z chromosomes. which would have been a way better twist in jurassic park than "lol frog DNA"

Given that all the distinguishing parts are easily removed, and it has human hands, I think it's safe to say this will get retooled. Only question is what. Probably something with big tires, since the smaller tires appear to be far more easily removed pieces vs the large integrated ones.. and presumably any other vehicle would have all four the same size.

nobody with any brain thought that, and it hasn't been very long yet.
literally the only thing they have in common is the frill and some elements of the transformation. Unless you think the frill itself and the tail gun were on their own sprue and they might recycle -just that-

fascinating, I didn't realize what an uneven track record they had with reissues. Wolfang is basically the same, aside from his degradation, right? and Retrax, aside from being misassembled.
I think Megatron and Terrorsaur look different because of lighting, but Tigatron and maybe Cheetor are just the Takara versions. Rattrap having grey feet I can't figure out, but the eye being painted in was probably just like a fix.

Every single Vintage BW toy has deco differences, some slight, some outright different or missing paint apps. Anyone that had an enrgon chip now doesn't.
- Megatron's missing the paint on his head, but that actually makes it more show accurate. He also has darker, show-accurate dino skin.
- Primal has the show head and swords color, but is missing the red from his chest.
- Scorponok finally gets to be his show colors for the first time ever.
- Cheetor's never had this combination of eye colors before. The orange robot eyes are close to the show's yellow, and the green beast eyes match his eyes while in beast mode. The mutant face's eyes are dull gold.
- Tigatron is basically the Takara (and thus, show accurate) deco. Thank god.
- Rattrap is an new mold - the old one was toast, they remade it right at the steel mold level. The beast eyes are black to match the show's beast mode color, but the beast feet move away from show accuracy to a super-pale pink.
- Terrorsaur's missing the paint on the top of his fists.
- Wolfang missiles were remolded. Wolfang's white is less pronounced. His missiles are upper arms are softer plastic.
- Retrax doesn't just have misassembled parts (antennae), it also has parts missing (beast legs)
- Iguanus's spots are slightly different
- Cybershark's spots are darker

I knew about the missing ones, but most of these changes I wasn't aware of.
cheetor definitely had orange eyes in the show, though a pretty yellowish orange to be sure.
>Rattrap was remade
what a dumbass and unnecessary thing to do.. no wonder they thought we'd pay 12 bucks for it.
>missing paint on the top of fists

There was a Rattrap in Kingdom out at the same time, and for those who care about him being too small the Vintage too is too far removed from the style of other new stuff to be a fitting substitute. I don't know what molds they had available, but they should have focused on stuff that wasn't available in Kingdom like they did in the later waves. I guess they assumed people wanted the show characters; fair, but then they shelfwarmed to buggery.

Have they revealed Tidal Wave’s box yet?

I wonder if the art on it will give hints to the next Titan Class?

And no there were no hints.

The next Titan is probably related to the 13 since Jtprime has leaked they are doing the 13 for 2025-2026.
