You know what I mean right, when a toy has stuff like tabs you can't hide that absolutely wouldn't get counted as an actual body part if it was translated into animation. Cyberworld does this. Some kibble is of course immutable character anatomy. Some is "unavoidable" design quirk.

The only thing I don't like really is how the backpack isn't rounded along the edge of the window. Having those corners on it behind his head looks shit looks unfinished. Turns what could just be a detail of his body into a non diagetic "try not to look at it" kind of kibble.

Really like how versatile Bee's jetpack is. The peg is long enough to fit on loads of guys but also for him to use it in different ways. I was right to not pay twenty pounds for him but he is a nice lil feller. The way the ankles slide into the feet is great

Just checked this out, interesting cover! A well done book! A genuinely funny romp in Greece with one hell of a good bit of dialogue, when Spidey says Herc must be able to take a joke, he replies "I can take a /funny/ joke."

Absolutely insane that they're calling this out with so much space on the booklet for a toy that isn't even in the same line!!

Haha, holy shit, Studio Series Shockwave has shown up at retail in Singapore, and turns out he has designed-in compatibility with AOTP Bruticus!

I keep hastening the end of toon accuracy so we can ragnarok sunbow and begin a cycle of modern comic styling but when I say that I mean dreamwave and I hear myself say it and know I will never be sated

All this is very tiring sometimes innit. The perfect toys I imagine just keep not getting made while the churn continues

Thinking I'd blindly add 86 Skywarp to the list just because it's time to bin the ER seekers but he's the one I actually like because the silver pops so well. This one is just grey. Why should I spend. Why do I need matching ones. We still haven't seen Starscream.
