Nemesis Maximo wrote:With Combiner Wars on the horizon, what has changed about Hasbro's mentality regarding combiners, specifically between what we have now and what we a few years ago, with the Combaticons?
When Bruticus was first revealed, I remember reading/hearing/what-have-you about how excited Hasbro was for the new Combination ports. Before then, the only really recent combiners had been PCC figures. They had decent combination gimmicks, and at a smaller scale than the then-current Generations line.
So I guess my question is: how did we go from a decent (for their size) combination gimmick with the Power Cores, to the mediocre attachment system of Fall of Cybertron, to what we have now with Combiner Wars?
AND, what do you think Hasbro was thinking with each iteration?
Thanks!

I mean, I know it's unlikely. But still, it's possible that Hasbro will listen to the feedback and release at least a MASSIVELY retooled Bruticus.

I started collecting a little over 5 years ago, I managed to buy more generations toys than g1. Would it be wise to continue collecting both g1 and generations or stick with either line. I like both lines but its becoming too pricy, any advice?

And what exactly is wrong about asking fans how they feel about a guy they know from an iconic role doing a different role instead of the iconic role? Cuz that's the point of my question, not the fact that Bell is doing his job.SW's SilverHammer wrote:Sabrblade wrote:What are you referring to?SW's SilverHammer wrote:Isn't that their job?
Isn't it the voice actor's job to voice a character, regardless of prior roles? I mean that'd be like asking, how do you feel about frank welker doing the voices for both Fred and Scooby in the new Scooby doo show?

Why don't you just let the Twincast folks do their job and get a chance to look over and decide to answer my question instead of you chastising it for no reason other than to put it down?SW's SilverHammer wrote:Sabrblade wrote:And what exactly is wrong about asking fans how they feel about a guy they know from an iconic role doing a different role instead of the iconic role?

No, what I'm saying is the fact it's they're job is kinda negating your question. It's their job to act and emote for media, no matter what character they're playing, whether their iconic role, or an extra. A more legitimate question would be on the quality of their acting from character to character, not "Person x was most famous for (insert character here), and he/she is (insert character here) how do you feel about a person doing their job. It's like asking "A line cook at restaurant a, took a job at restaurant b, opinions?"

Believe it or not, people do have opinions on actors playing roles different from the ones that they're known for playing, and not everyone feels the same way about it. I'd like to know what the Twincasters feel about the matter, so kindly quit acting like you're the one who decides which questions they answer. You're not in charge of this thread, so please, just stop.
