>>11664880No, I'm a customer with a big, fat wallet, and one that has classically been buying Transformers since they first hit the shelves, nay, imports before they were even called Transformers. I'm not sure why it's so hard for you to understand that "not being able to break them" (color-swap them) with a simple screwdriver equals LOST SALES. Like I said, Mattel gets it, with the Origins line. You have He-Man, He-Turtles, He-Thundercats, He-WWE, similar WWE and with a bowl of warm water, even MORE figure lines of theirs that have compatible parts. Hasbro's not interested in profit, wanting Transformers LOCKED as they are... that's soooooo boring. I bought like 3 different, modern Blaster figures in different colors... uh oh... there's screws, but there's a deep-holed RIVET blocking you from sanely taking him apart. That's Not. Fun. But more than that, it's ALSO not a reason to want to buy any more Transformers, if they can't be augmented. And frankly, only buying DNA custom sets that sometimes cost even more than the actual figure to "fix" the hollowed-out gaps and other penny-pinching retardation they pull to save 2 shekels is also NO. FUN. And then there's expensive toyhax sticker sheets to further fix their cheap-assness. Look, you do you, but buying multiple Transformers of the same mold to make 1 cool one is FUN, and it's been taken away. I think the last time i had "fun" with buying Transformers was buying different variants of Ultra Magnus to maker a dark, cooler one. (Seen here in unfinished state, still needing the white of the lower legs needing to be maybe neon green, maybe super dark purple).
