I saw one Hasbro engineer post on a message board that this is not the result he was expecting.

By the way, Deathsaurus and Star Saber are both from Victory instead of Masterforce.

The IDW comics is both a reboot and sequel to the cartoons and comics of the 1980s.

I hope Sentinel explains why his alt modes are blatant repaints of the Decepticon Astrotrain.

The fans are trying to make up for 3 decades of almost no toys.

The conclusion of the Dark Cybertron IDW comics arc.

Yes, he’s a villain in one of the recent IDW comics storyline.

He’s not evil. He’s chaotic good.

That character already exists.

Primal is not actually a villain here. He just represents chaos because beastformers are a new and strange addition to the Cybertronian race. Also, “sometimes crazy works”.

A lot of Transformers fans are probably going to vote on which character is more badly in need of an updated (non-Masterpiece and at least voyager class) toy.

Barry-cade?

He did. And died. And it made Megatron join the Autobots.

Magnus haven’t been an Optimus repaint in a while. Namely both his Masterpiece and Combiner Wars toys were original molds, with the Combiner Wars one being retooled into Powermaster Prime and Ginrai.

Oh, I thought you mean Madonna was cursed. Or she hexed someone or something.

When Trump tanks the economy, the suits would be the hobos.

1 out of 4 isn’t too bad. Unfortunately, 3 out of 4 is.
