One of my favorite Transformers figures from last year was the Revenge of the Fallen Lockdown. So when Hasbro announced they would be reusing that body for the Hunt for the Decepticons Axor figure, he definitely joined my buying list. The only problem was I just couldn’t seem to find him anywhere.
Well, my long search is at an end. After months of making the rounds between my local Wal-Marts, Toys R Us, and Target, I finally found a Transformers: War for Cybertron Soundwave. It’s been a very long time since I’ve had to hunt for a figure that hard, but lucky for me, I think it was worth it.
Marvel Legends. For many collectors, it's a hallowed line. Even if you're not a fan, you can't deny the influence its had on the toy industry. Hasbro hasn't always lived up to the bar Toy Biz set for the line, but I keep hoping they'll get there. This week, I purchased the Black Widow & the Winter Soldier's variant 2pk.
With all these movie Iron Man figures running around, plus the few from the Marvel Universe line, I think it’s about time for Tony’s right-hand woman to get her own toy. No, I'm not asking for a personal assistant figure, but I would like to see a figure of Pepper Potts in her Rescue Armor
I got into Transformers Animated so late that the only releases I've "waited for" have been the 4 recent Toys R Us exclusive figures (& some unreleased items). I haven't gone back and gotten "them all", but I've picked up my favorite characters. And when it comes to favorites, that certainly includes Rodimus Minor.
On our forums, I was just talking about how I'm not really into characters that are "badass for badass' sake", but then I turned around and do a Drift review. It would appear that my hypocrisy knows no bounds, but the truth is I haven't had a chance to read a comic with Drift. I bought him because he looked cool.
