New rant: Just got AoE Galvatron....while I like the fact that the cab "flattens" for the transformation it looks like a stiff board mounted to his back now. The figure might has well been one of those Protoforms with a cab on its back. Makes posing him damn near impossible and looks plain tacky. at first I thought it was a mis-transformation but quickly found out that's how they made the damn thing. I am so beyond disappointed in Hasbro for creating this piece of lactose intolerable excrement and calling it a Transformer. Not to mention a truck! damn they coulda saved the Black Cab-over truck for....lets say Nemesis Prime not freaking Galvatron. Then there's no arm cannon! Its my opinion that hell the DOTM figures were better than this. Hasbro needs to get toy designers back in the mix not marketing students who couldn't give two chits about the TF brand. Hound looks good so far will try him out this evening to see how the execution goes.
The 6 in GOTG set isn't bad at all..surprisingly I like all these figures (even the bazillionth Iron Man)..just wonder why theses were 19.99 and the Xmen are 14.99? given that the next wave is supposed to sport a bigger packaging I am preparing for the inevitable price hike but in such a small time frame and hearing all this cost of materials and plastic BS... how could the next wave of figures be cheaper than the current wave? TRU is known for the random price increase(MP Grimlock or total heroes or DC Multiverse) but the flip flopping of pricing tells me that in their infinite wisdoms to make the Xmen a seller they dropped the price. but its a TRU exclusive so surely TRU will bump it back to 19.99 or 22.99 which is what the ASM2 and CAWS is selling for currently. Currently most Action figures of any better than good quality are costing $24.99 and up...so riddle me this..at what point will the cost be so great that entire lines fail because no one can afford them?
