Hey all, back for another post after non new stuff came up of TFW finally.
First up on the docket, we get a new 3rd party generation 1 arcee. after people were resoundingly underwhlemed by the Impoosible toys Valkyrie one, the folks at Igear took it into their hands to make on which they hope does better. Though, the packaging is eerily similar. and yea. She seems nice, but seeing as we knew net to nothin abotu her until earllier today, i'm on the "wait and see" bandwagon with her. the main dterrents for me right now are 1) how structurally sound she is (that sounds weird) and 2) how expensive she is. i know she has a considerable amount of diecast metal in her, but still, an amount just south of $100 for a limited run 3rd party figure of a character who has not had a good g1 toy in 26 years seemes a bit much to me. also, i'm a bit worried that theyre marketing her as "delicate warrior" that doesnt instill much confidence in me in the quality of the plastic. But, i want feedback from you all. comment below on this
The second story i'm gonna cover invilves more thoughts on Generations Terradive, who is on my list for september. A guy i know on youtube, and apparently a regular liasion to TFW as well, EmGo, posted his review of Terradive. I'm loving the engenuity of the the transformation and just everything about this figure. I'm loving the dark grey, almost gun metal paint app on the lower face, love how the front of the jet transforms in a new-ish way, while still retaining parts that are classic to the jet-former style. plus the trident is awesome. I'm totally displaying this guy next to Darkmount/Straxxus.
see you guys next post.
