In addition, the backside of her toy packaging uses the masculine inflection of "Bruiser" for her function in French, Spanish, and Portuguese.

Take this with a grain of salt.

Who was saying that?

With Hotrod, wish his wheels where the same color as on the package. Would look much better!

Seibertron wrote:On a personal level, I love that Cyberverse has already added a really cool twist to the Quintessons by giving them these "mind-control" devices that attach to Transformers. I'm looking forward to seeing how this unfolds in the Cyberverse storyline and how this potentially impacts anything related to Quintessons going forward.

I totally caught that and I am surprised so few fans don't. This line takes a lot of cues from G1, which was a toyline for kids. It has the same characters as G1, along with the same basic articulation and simple enough transformations. Plus it has gimicks for kids, which the G1 line did do as well in the later years. It very much is an old school kids line and I find that fun in itself.

Also, while I did not intend this at all, my house became like a pop up christmas store for Transformers, since i was selling a small chunk of my collection. Most of the customers were parents looking for simpler toys for 4-6 year olds. I had almost nothing for them, but this Cyberverse line would be perfectly up their alley. All to say there is definitely a market out there and this line answers a big need. It's these toys that can make new young fans that will one day support the brand when they are older.

For me, the big tirboff is that the only Quint (and the sharkticons to a much lesser extent) I can buy is in a three pack with two figures that left outbthe coolest parts about them. Now, I say that, I don't think they could have sold a Quintesson toy on its own without some sort of gimmick and bonus in the box. But if I can get a Quint on its own, then I will pass.

Are those new faces? I dont remember them from G1

Well, where you have toys for 4-6yo you might not have for older children like 9-12. Hasbro needs a Siege lite type of line. But I definetely agree that Cyberverse can get very appealing like that.
