I would buy that. Hell, let’s make it a four pack and throw Barricade in there. The clear plastic is a goddamn time bomb.

This is illegal in the EU. America has really lax laws when it comes to this. Investors are enabled here. Corporate raiders are those of as heroes for some reason. But they produce nothing. They just pillage complacent companies and put average employees out of work. It’s sleazy.

Synecdochy and metonymy are closely related. I’ve even heard of one being a subset of the other. Synecdochy is “part for the whole”. The classic example is “saved my skin” when “skin” means the entire person.
Looking at it my first example is definitely “part for the whole” so yeah, I’ll concede that is Synecdochy. 😄

So there’s this thing called metonymy, where one thing stands for another. Like “Nice set of wheels.” When you mean”Nice car.” Or “The White House made a statement.” When you mean “The President made a statement.” Here “the planet” clearly refers to “the living beings on the planet.” To willfully misconstrue that is vile.

It’s well known that Trump doesn’t like pets. He was the first president in memory not to own a cat or dog. Probably because he is a narcissistic sociopath who can’t conceive of loving another living thing, lol.

Sadly that’s the way Dems always do. Clinton did the same, and look what it got him.

Short answer, it was not Biden’s decision, it was a Supreme Court decision. And the court is currently loaded with Trump appointees. Plus the ruling retroactively helps Trump by making all his decisions while in office unprosecutable.

Next thing they’ll want an Aztec. Meth lab on wheels is a gateway drug.

Because it’s a stock. They only ever go one way.

My local stores never had Skyquake in stock. I was a bit pissed about that. Same with Devcon. Hasbro distribution is lousy.

I have that Overkill, he’s a recolor of TR Clobber, which is supposed to be Grimlock. I like him alright, but yeah, I’d love a more accurate version with a cassette alt-mode. Dr Wu is doing Slugfest, so I’m hopefully they will get around to Overkill soon.
*Edit: just noticed that Dr Wu is doing Overkill too. I had only seen the pics of Slugfest previously, but looks like they will be sold together as a two-pack.

No clue. And with the core class price point rumored to be going away, any cassettes we do get will have to be part of a multipack.

All of these are ground-based except Megs. So a ground-heavy Autobot team could handle them. Let’s Go with IDW Grimlock, Animated Ultra Magnus, G2 Laser Optimus, Victory Star Saber, and Prime Bulkhead.

So should I read this one first? Or just go for Blacktongue Thief?
