Oh me oh MY

Hasbro Transformers HasLab Liokaiser combiner official product photography.

I was really hyped for this guy but the... crotch piece, is that what we're calling it? And the view from the back with just a whole sitting back there, it just killed the vibe for me.

My brain will be happy but my wallet? Very angry

rosenlynx.bsky.social•69 days ago

i'm just SO HAPPY this guy exists, i love any Victory rep

toygrind.bsky.social•69 days ago

Happy for those going in, but there's no way I'm in any position to drop Haslab cash on a guy I have no real affection for. He's cool or whatever but the Combiner Wars version still scratches the itch for me ❤️

I literally finished the Iron Factory version two weeks ago, but I’m chuffed there’s an official option on the way for people - that Deathcobra shoulder cannon is inspired too!

I adore the CW version for its ambition and working with what they had.

Not to denigrate the Haslab one, but I admire that form of effort more.

But Jallguar was basically my first Japanese TF ever, a flea market find for like $2, soooo.....

Honestly that one is one of the prettiest combiner wars lads. Just nice and vibrant and fun.

I do regret not picking this up when it was reduced, and hoping that it'd be reduced further instead. How foolishly optimistic I was...

doomington.bsky.social•69 days ago

I'm tempted, but I need to see where on the Haslab scale this one is gonna fall. It'd be nice to put with my Starsaber, but I can't do the crazier prices these can get to. (No way was I touching Unicron, which your vid on validated and reinforced, heh.)

Same. Happy for those who want it, but will be passing on it.

vangelus.bsky.social•69 days ago

it would be super cool if the Haslab makes the combiner wars version dip some on the aftermarket 🥹

milesarzaluz13.bsky.social•69 days ago

I will be certain to look to getting rid of mine if it interests you.

doomsdayguerrilla.bsky.social•69 days ago

that's how I feel about most Haslabs. Look really cool but there's no desire to drop that kind of bread, especially now.

toygrind.bsky.social•69 days ago

"Chest force"? Come on dude. We're all adults here. I'm gonna need you to nut up and call them Titty Gang

domsalvia.iacon.co.uk•69 days ago

"Gland Group"

I think that's too much maybe.

benpirrie.bsky.social•69 days ago

The Boob Boys.

benpirrie.bsky.social•69 days ago

But you have to say it like a 1930s gangster

cozmicaztaway.bsky.social•69 days ago

The Mammary Mob

They were called ブレストフォース Buresutofōsu in the cartoon. That's obviously romanized as breastforce. Are we like, ashamed of the original japanese context or something? Is it somehow more silly than Deathsaurus? I don't get the reasoning here.

dumbonigirl.bsky.social•69 days ago

C'mon Hasbro. The inherent silliness of katakana transliterations of english words is a good chunk of the fun of the japanese language and an integral part of the cultural identity of the Japanese continuity and Japan itself. We love this shit. It's not offputting.
