Do you think that the Infernac figures are going to combine into something? in the reveal video Mark said "... crazy rock creatures appreared out of the ground and formed some crazy combiner"...i mean why would they let that hideous stick hanging out the back when they are way way way better than that...there HAS to be a reason.......right? 🤔
Hey I know this is an older review, BUT I’d like to add a thing a discovered on my bouldercrash and Shard figures. I don’t know if anyone has tried it, but the slots in the center of shards helicopter thrusters fit Perfectly (as if it was intentional) with bouldercrash’s butt handle! I was just messing around with combinations for fun and to see if I can product if there will be a fun large form they can fuse into and came across what I believe is an intended connection for the potential rock mesh robot we could get in the future!! And now that we are getting a purple-ish version of bouldercrash, maybe they will become some sorta claws or duel blade contraption!!
I feel so strongly that Energon Optimus is prime Commander Class material. And with the advent of Titan Tidal Wave it would be sick to get a Titan Omega Supreme with mini parts that combine with Optimus.
The nature of Optimus Supreme’s combination would probably make it a lot easier to pull off with a Titan class Omega Supreme than Tidal Wave goes with Megatron
The trend to have pho-forming jaw chests hurts me more and more the more it gets used. It's like the main appeal of those types of animal transformations and the designers don't even wanna try. ;-;
Man as much as Energon was hated can we all admit that the ToyLine was very solid? yeah there were some stinkers like HotShot and Ironhide, but the energon combiners were some of the best we've gotten and the powerlinx gimmick was pretty cool even if it was executed poorly.
True, even if I'm neutral on Energon and enjoyed Armada and Cybertron more? I did thought the toyline was the fun part about it since even if I never had any of the toys? probably my favorite ones that I could try to order on eBay are Inferno,Prowl,Terrorcons, and Omnicons :D
I always say it, energon was one of the worst written shows ever with one of the absolute best toy gimmicks. Optimus and his combinations with his drones, Starsaber and Omega Supreme will always be my most wanted toys out there.
Energon Megatron looks oddly pretty good. Its gonna be interesting to see if Hasbro will redeco him into Shattered Glass Megatron. The original Botcon 06 SG Megatron was actually a a redeco of the original Energon Megatron. As of right now it goes for $1600 on eBay.
Can Bouldercrash's weapon store in robot mode? Or is he forced to hold it? Also, unrelated but seeing these being reviewed by other people before pvp makes me happy. He's got the monopoly of "first look" for too long by being as scummy as possible
Since I got mine a little early, I'll say... Kind of? The front wheel section behind the head has two of the pegs the weapon connects to in vehicle mode. So it can be put there but it looks a little unwieldy.
Wow, that Tasmania Kid transformation looks really really cool. I can definitely tell they have been stepping up their game in their lower cost product lines. Those new mini-cons are even really good!
If anyone isn’t familiar with Inhumanoids, go check it out ASAP. As of right now at least, you can just watch the whole dang thing on RU-vid. If you’re here, you’ll like it well enough for it to be worth your time. It’s guaranteed to make you say “oh I bet they wouldn’t do that today” a few times, and the toys for it were epic.
My Amazon orders for Animated Optimus Prime, Thundertron, Magneous, and Bouldercrash arrived last weekend. I'm amazed how early this wave is showing up. I haven't seen a new year's wave 1 show up this early since Siege.
Man, I can't wait to get these, I had Snarl as a kid but lost it and Energon Megatron was one of my favorite toys as well, so this wave has me super excited. The rock dude can come along too.
Yeah I found this at my local Walmart too here in Canada. Of course I bought the only one that I actually need for my collection. Weird how we got these toys early.
Pretty unique and unusual wave of Cores. I'm not big into the Core scale, but if I were to pick one I'd go with Tasmanian Kid as his beast mode looks ferocious and makes for a fun beast former. I like how the original Energon Megatronhad retractable hands allowing the wings to sit lower whereas he the fists literally point straight up against the wings. Also the sword unable to detach was also one of the biggest complaints about the original as it has to be plugged into the tank accessory to be properly wielded. So far we've now seen Armada, and Energon Megatron, but still no Cybertron megatron. But tbf despite being the largest of the the three and hugely gimmick heavy probably not the most interesting design as he was a triple changing race car/jet wearing Unicron shoulders.
Probably an unpopular opinion, but I hope we can get some more Energon stuff in the future. The cartoon was not great, but the toyline had some decent figures. I'd love updated Inferno, Hotshot, Landmine, Scorponok, Snow Cat, Demolishor and Sharkticon figures.
Not to mention optimus, I genuinely think that toy would sell like hotcakes, with guaranteed success for Omega Supreme and Starsaber all just because of the gimmick!
I hope we get another core class combiner in legacy united, especially if we get more Energon figures that can also combine with 2 members. (Or just make them deluxes)
Found Energone Megs and Bouldercrash at Walmart too! Think I got there a little too late for Kid, which is a shame because he’s the one I’m most excited for
I'd be excited for more Energon toys. I grew up with Unicron Trilogy, and Energon was the weakest by far (though the story was actually decent). If the can fix the articulation and the wonky proportions (looking at you, Fatimus Prime), I'm totally game.
Energon Megs looks to be the star of the show, which is odd because why go from Armada Megs (& Galvy) as a Leader to this as a Core?? 🤔🤔🤔 Hopefully they'll do Leaders of Energon Megs (& Galvy); that's a thing that'll need the additional budget for paint, parts count, & engineering in today's times. Bouldercrash's sword mode...that thing makes the Siege Lionizer mold envious. Meanwhile, it's also another bike. I wonder what Hasbro's sudden bike fetish is about...
Something I like about Energon Megatron here is that they changed the proportions of the jet JUST slightly so the tank sword looks better mounted between the wings due to them being higher up AND the neck of the jet is longer. It just looks PERFECT!
Walmart!? God, the walmarts in my area suck. They still have Legacy wave 2 and 3 on the shelf, toxitron line toys that aren't selling, and that's it. ...Maybe I just live in the joyless province where toys don't sell and shelf-warmers are all that's left...
So I went to a random Walmart here in Canada and they put out literally 1 energon megatron like 2-3 weeks ago and he is alright, knees on mine are a little loose and it makes the transformation a paint with tabs not sitting nicely. Otherwise I still have fun with him!
I'm hoping I don't get called out for this since I did enjoy Armada and Cybertron more even if I were to admit their toylines had flaws dipsite that I use to have them when I was a kid but while I'm abit neutral on Energon? I usually thought the toyline was the fun part about it since my favorite characters are Inferno,Prowl,Terrorcons, and Omnicons lol. Can't also wait to get Core Tasmania Kid along with Core Dinobot next year when they come out in stores and on eBay tho' :D
We need more energon toys I was a little upset when I first saw core class megs but now knowing their testing is making me excited. I’d also love more cybertron toys I’d love to see the batmobile styled megatron in modern day sculpting and mechanics
Im located in AB and I saw most of these guys as well. Would have grabbed them but Megatron wasn't there and I didn't feel like going to the checkout for a little weasel guy. (Don't care much for the rock people)
Where did you get- no, please, wait- that shockwave? I mostly only collect Cores, and I haven’t seen shockwave with those translucent highlights before!
Aww.. I thought they were going to release the Energon Megatron to scale because I wanted to hopefully get new versions of Energon since I’m getting Armada Megatron and Starscream and hopefully Tidalwave when he comes out.
Core class Megatron is Hasbro testing the demand for new Energon toys? Well, I guess I'm picking him up. I'd love to see the Powerlinx gimmick return on Transformers with modern engineering.
You can fold the wings more down on energon megatron just when you have the the arms in the vehicle form just pull back closer to the thighs and the wings will go down more.
I think my Bouldercrash has two left upper arms, cause I have to take off his right arm for the weapon to fit. I spent an hour trying to get the stupid thing on before giving up
