CAPT. Rainbowbeard posted:Who is that, again? God Neptune, aka the Seacons with all the color and personality sucked out of them. It's a good color scheme for something, but not for them. Neon pink and eye-bleeding blue forever, thank you.

Rhyno posted:Man I love how they look. And you're right, even FT isn't going to get to these guys any time soon. I was also thinking about their Wreck-Gar but with how many movie bots FT has already done I expect him to be announced as soon as I purchase KFC's. i've got the KFC junkyard junkion and I like him a lot, so if you want to try out their junkion mold without being worried about FT releasing the same character soon I'd recommend checking him out

Apparently Spinout (the TT-official Red Sunstreaker, not the lesser 3p toy) is going to explicitly be a Diaclone robot from another universe that was granted sentience by some goddamn supercomputer or another As in he fought Waruders, feels weird without a pilot, etc.

Looks like Target has some of the letter bot transformers that combiners Called Letrabots. They're over in the card game section near the registers. They have better plastic quality then the Eathrise weaponizers I got on the same day

Droyer posted:Funny then the toy that would become bluestreak never had those colors Yeah, no. 7 is Bluestreak, who is a Diaclone and a different character than Streak (the Japanese name for Bluestreak) who is a Transformer and not blue at all. That's exactly how MP Bluestreak is colored. I don't read Japanese, but the bio information on MP Bluestreak's instructions apparently strongly suggests he's a Diaclone and fights Waruders and the Autobots (er, Cybertrons) have no idea who he actually is. Check the tfwiki article I linked! Wouldn't be surprised if Spinout's bio reflected this.

That's exactly how MP Bluestreak is colored. I did check the link and my point was that the Diaclone toy (which is named Fairlady Z not Bluestreak, all the Diaclone car robots were named after the model of car they were based on) does not have that color scheme. Fairlady has a mono-color baby blue color scheme whereas the MP is partially a deep blue and partially silver.

I did some more digging and found this: http://heroicdecepticon.blogspot.com/2014/12/the-birthday-post-2014-part-1-diaclone.html So there was both a blue Fairlady z with a silver chest and an entirely silver one (presumably the baby blue one in the catalog i posted is the silver one reflecting something blue or a color scheme they ended up scrapping.) Sorry Rainbowbeard, you were right.

It sounds more like Spin-Out’s bio is saying Bluestreak IS Streak, and that he changed due to whatever anti-Diaclone business was coded in Transformers based on Spin-Out.
