2017 SDCC Transformer Sets

You know, if it had been Thundercracker I probably would have bitten, especially if it came with a Buster.

OMG that would have been so much better! With a little copy of one of his screenplays!

Yeah I would defininitely buy that. Does anyone know of a toyline that would be a good size match (1/18th) and looks busterish? I want to find one for my Thundercracker now, lol

This is borderline useless but i did see on Instagram someone with the generations leader thundercracker i think and a little dog that kinda resembled Buster. I think they just found it by looking for small toy dogs or something. Not that helpful but there are some things out there. I'm surprised there hasn't been a 3rd party add-on kit already.

These are the toy animals you see on dedicated stands in toy shops.

I wouldn't know where else to look

I want that GI Joe Roadblock... maybe the Visionaries figure as well.
Everything else, especially Jetfire, I couldn't care less about.
I just feel that Jetfire's a poor choice for this set... kinda dampens the hype for me...

Thanks UltraMarginal there are quite a few dogs to choose from but I think the dog from "Feeding on the farm" set will be perfect. Gotta track down a store that has them now.

I'd like to see how it looks when you get one. I'm short a Thundercracker as well so I'll probably not have either in the long run.

So they wanted a large transformer mold. I think Jetfire is more iconic than Thundercracker to non-transformers fans. So why pick him over Soundwave? Well Jetfire just looks 80s, he even looks a bit Robotech for people even more out of the loop. Plus SDCC has had JF previously as if that means anything.

I think JF was a good SDCC choice, just not for the TF collectors (but his ears are different) who have him already.
