I should have been a little more specific on my question about reprolabels. In other words expand that into ALL Transformers. Do you prefer the hasbro / takara labels or do you wait for the reprolabel sheet that normally comes out? Or do you recommend both? I am waiting on baited breath for those collections videos.
Also wouldn’t that “Pretend Engineering” be the Cyberverse Ultimate Class Megatron?

And Darryl is suppose to be the toy expert?? Does he do no research?? Come on now Darryl !!
(P.S. Don’t be offended Darryl)
Statues!
I like the Wheeljack statue. I’m never going to get it, but it’s cool.
It reminds me of TF:Prime “Commando” Wheeljack, more than classic/G1 Wheeljack.
I know the four of you are primarily G1 fans (on a scale, of course).
How much do you all like classic characters ‘evolving
as time goes on?
I’m thinking of characters like Perceptor or Arcee, but also re-using and recasting the character entirely, as in ‘Animated’ Prowl or Smokescreen in ‘TF:Prime’.
A good day to you, sirs!
