Darkmount and Drift were never original toy characters. Hasbro have shown willingness to make new molds for some G1 comic characters so kudos there, but they seem reluctant to do the same for new versions of later G1 toys.Quote:

Didn't they make a Hardhead out of Universe Onslaught?Quote:

Hope we get some good waves after this one. I'd love a deluxe FOC Slag with Prime Beast Hunters #1. Voyager is a bit big for me, even though that would be out of scale.
Toy wise yes they are 1985, but they did show up in episode 13 meaning they have been with us since 84.Quote:

The frequent cries of "oh they're not very good at all, but I'll still get them" are pretty much why Hasbro can, and will, keep doing half-arsed redecos. The fans eat it up, despite the bitching.
Agreed. I am not getting these repaints.Quote:

Spot on Gouki. This attitude amuses me no end :rolleyes:Quote:
