TF Fanstream Jan. 30th. The next HASLAB will be revealed.

Omega Prime!

Yes indeed.


Price isn't too bad, and it does look great. Shame this will probably be the only release of this combo by Hasbro for another 20 years.


What's worse is that this is a Haslab I want. I was hoping the Primus speculation was correct because I had no interest in getting a Primus Haslab. This I want so I will be spending the money.


YA GOT ME AGAIN HASBRO!!!


Oh and I guess Evan learned a lesson about not making definitive claims about product and Haslab. (He was the one who said they wouldn't do Primes in Haslab).

I'm in the following camp:
- never watched RiD, never collected the figures
- love combining figures though, and it's an Optimus to boot
- Mags proportions look brutal, but it seems that's accurate to the original release, so
- Bluebolts looks cool, and the fact he's deluxe-sized and a targetmaster is pretty indicative of the size/scale

tldr; I may end up backing this shortly before the end - not excited enough to jump on the bandwagon immediately, but I can appreciate a cool toy, and that's a big *ss f*ckin sword

It's 250 usd but now free shipping to Canada. Seems like way better value than $300 cdn titans imo

The fine print says haslab are excluded from free shipping I believe (even for pulse members)

“ Free standard shipping does not apply to HasLab campaigns.”

Easy pass for me. Looks neat.. but not 300 dollars and waiting a year neat.

The problem with stuff like RiD is that the people who grew up on this stuff would've got the original toys when they were new, and those original toys were already pretty show-accurate and articulated. With G1 most of the toys had only a vague resemblance to their show counterparts and barely moved at all, and it's taken decades to get decent versions of a lot of them, but with stuff like RiD, Cybertron, Animated, etc. the original toys were already good enough that there isn't much point in revisiting them.

Added one to my cart to see how the cost comes out, although I don't plan on backing. To ship it to NL, the total is $321.98 USD or $431.53 CAD, compared to Deathsaurus and Victory Saber at $241.48 USD or $338.75 CAD at the time. That's almost $100 more.

This is my issue with it too and part of why i dont get all the G1 hate on reddit. 40 year anniversary and we still dont have some G1 characters. RiD should have to wait until 2041 for updates like the rest of us.
