Wave 1 Generations FOC toys in packaging

[griffin]

The toys are made in the cheapest places possible already, there's not a lot they can do now to offset rising costs.
Inflation and those rising costs of resources (like oil/plastic & wages), has to be passed on somehow... either by raising the price points (they did that 4 years ago), or reducing the size of the price points (which we've seen happen each year since then).
If they have a total expenditure budget, a dollar value, for a particular price point, we can't expect the end result to stay the same price or size over a long period of time.

Same thing happens with food, or things that are made in the same place over time (if there aren't cheaper sources to obtain it from).
A BigMac isn't the same price it was 10 years ago, or the same size.

Is it just me or is there something a little bit robocop about jazz's face? It's probably just me...

Jazz and Shockwave I'm pretty happy with, even if they're a little smaller, Jazz because he's a sports car (albeit a space sports car) and Shockwave because he's still got chicken legs like his g1 counterpart.

When did Shockwave have chicken legs?

I don't see the chicken legs unless we have different ideas on what chicken legs are.

To me, these are chicken legs:



They became more common during the Movie era as even during Beast Wars, bird Transformers twisted their legs to look more simian.

.....Now this is all I will think of when i play with FOC Shockwave.

My point of view is that Chicken legs have always meant skinny legs compared to the upper body.

Then G1 Megatron has chicken legs?

Yep.

Yep.

I still don't see skinny legs as chicken legs. I use the term to refer to the backwards knee legs like in the movie toys.

Generally speaking, "She's got chicken legs" = metaphorical to mean "her legs are skinny".

Don't think I've ever met anyone that's interpreted it in a literal sense.

Similarily, "That dude has massive guns" - Do you think that guy has muscly arms or actual, big guns?
