There's a lot of stuff on the radar for 2022 with more of what fans have been asking for from the G1, Beast Wars, Armada, Prime, and more series from the past.

wow, what a list! So, we are getting new combiners it looks like. On the one hand, I am excited because I did not get motormaster and only have two of the CW stunticons. On the other hand, does this mean I will be replacing my bruticus in the coming years? And is commander class really where that character should be? Perhaps motormaster will be like Rodimus prime where the figure is smaller but has the extra detailing and tooling necessary to pull off everything they are supposed to do. It will be very interesting to see how Hasbro updates the combiner feature, if they do in fact combine (and why wouldn't they?). I think that is the biggest reveal for me. 

I think I like the direction legacy is going of pulling from all years of Transformers. I just hope it does not lose the cohesiveness of previous years. War for cybertron started great and while it was bogged down with exclusives that were very hard to get, I enjoyed the design decisions that were made. I think it is time for transformers to get a dedicated collector line like the other series; the movie figures will likely fill in the general releases. I hope it stays strong for years to come.

Good points! I agree on most of what you said. I do hope the Legacy line matches up with previous lines as well. I'm intrigued by the new Stunticons coming and wonder if it's just a "one-off," because the one Combiner Wars set that was the worst was that Stunticon set, and Hasbro just want to do right by redoing Menasor, or if we'll be getting a whole redo on all the combiners, too. I'm still hoping we get all the Dinobots, including Snarl in the future, and I'd like to continue with obscure TF's like Crankcase, Pointblank, and so on.

That is a good thought. It does make sense to update Menasor because he did have a lot of issues as a combiner. And when I look at the combiners I do own (bruticus, Abominus, POTP starscream, devastator) I don't think they need updates right now. Though for some reason I feel bruticus is the weaker of the ones I own and would be intrigued to see a new onslaught.

Commander  class is also a good way to go with combiner core figures. They can pack in blast effects, combiner accessories like hands and feet, and do the tooling necessary to make them great. Another question is whether the figure will have a new combiner joint system/attach system or not?

On a different note, I want more Armada! Starscream is a good start.

So excited about the new line! Especially the Prime figures. I didn't start liking Transformers until after the Prime figures came out 😂. However, really looking forward to that now. But, what does Pr mean?

    • Seems I took over this thread with my crappy customs lol.  Vector Prime is/was a multiversal singularity. So any Vector Prime released will be the same Vector Prime regardless of anything else. However there's only been one Vector Prime anyway though and that's CyberTRON Vector Prime. Well I guess there's been two if you count PotP Metalhawk since the Primemaster that came with him is Vector Prime. The wiki still has them as being the same Vector Prime though. I was literally just thinking about Vector Prime and how he needs a new figure. We need more big Autobots with flying alt modes and he certainly fits the bill. I wonder what they're going to do with Safeguard? Hasbro claimed they don't want to do Battlemasters and Micromasters anymore as they supposedly didn't sell well. No, the Rise of the Beast ones don't count as they should've been out about two years ago. Those seem to be selling well now though regardless of when they were supposed to be on shelves. So maybe they'll circle back around to them to do the Armada and Cybertron Minicons. Swindle, Leader-1, Sparkplug, Drillbit, Jolt and now Safeguard and Clench all need to be done. And we do need new ones. I dug out Armada Jolt, Universe Jolt and even T30 Blazemaster who has a Jolt variant and none of them work well with Hot Shot. The two Minicon Jolts don't peg onto the Minicon peg in Vehicle mode and the peg isn't accessible in robot mode. Blazemaster can't peg onto the Minicon peg either but can at least become a gun for robot mode. Maybe if the hood or the engine had a 5mm port then Blazemaster could plug in as a gun in vehicle mode. Deluxe Optimus Prime is mildly interesting. We've come a long way from the Classics deluxe Optimus Prime mold so it's bound to be way better than that and thankfully won't have the spinning gimmick.  Armada Galvatron is a long time coming. I get the CW mold wasn't amazing for Armada Megatron but I really did want Galvatron too. Now we're getting a proper update and I still kind of want a CW Armada Galvatron lol. I hope they finish the trifecta and do Megazarak too. I'll even take a Lucky Draw redeco. Origin Wheeljack is a VOYAGER. Nice. I hope they keep going with these even though there's technically little to no more they can do. Soundwave and Laserbeak? No not the "hidden" mode of the Siege figure, I mean one that only turns into the "lampost". I would hate that so much as I hate having an alt mode that doesn't move on its own other than for small weapons. Blaster and Netflix Soundwave annoy me but I do own all versions. At least Perceptor has his tank mode thing.  If these new "rocks" are indeed Weaponizers, I hope they work better than the Junkions. I hate how the torsos don't do anything. I couldn't care less about having a self contained transformation if it means that you lose functionality of the gimmick. I don't even bother messing with the Junkions the same way I did with the Weaponizers, Modulators and Fossilizers. The names don't seem to line up with any Rock Lords either for the most part. Not that they'd need to change the names since Hasbro owns those. They'd only need to make sure not to have them be accurate to the original toys like Velocitron Crasher. Not that I'd know since I never found one let alone the two I wanted. Maybe these are like Rock Lords though and they're really trying to do new (aka old) things. Just going to have to wait and see in two weeks or so when they start leaking from the factories now that they're showing up again in store listings.
    • On Friday, June 2, 2023 at 6 PM ET, we are checking out #Transformers: Legacy #Triggercon #Crankcase.  Crankcase hates everything and as a result, he is difficult to like.  During his youth, he was bullied for his collection of circuits and servos, thus changing his view of the world around him.  As a member of the Decepticons, Crankcase revels in the pain of others. Have you missed a video in the HNE Toys video series?  Then check out our playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL4vbVUjk2He2ReJA9PjWz67rJ56hKsT4G #HNE #Review #Transformers #Legacy #Crankcase #Triggercon #Decepticon #HasbroToyPic #HasbroToyPics @TFReviewers
    • So, what an odd mixed bag Transformers Studio Series Gamer Edition Barricade is. Yes, the articulation is atrociously limited BUT there is more to the story and some things quite charming about him too.  
    • Tonight on GotBot Goes Live, we overviewed this past week's news for ROTB, update the G.I.Joe crossover and where that seems to stand, and discuss the latest 2 pack for Jurassic Park. Plus, Legacy Shadow Striker, trivia and this week's unboxing
