2019 has been described as "a fantastic year" and "a wonderful time to be a fan". "Siege has proven to be an exceptional toy line", "getting better and better" and "an unbelievably great step in the right direction" but perhaps "too many exclusives" and many "not available outside of the US" making it "a very Expensive Year". Masterpiece has been a bit more divisive with fans noting "high prices" and wanting more "unreleased G1 characters".
