You're telling me Burnout, a BRAND NEW mold, was going to be the least sought after figure when Hauler, a 5th version of a mold, is sitting right next to her? Edit: I was thinking of Override, not Burnout. Do want to give it a shout out tho because I think Burnout is the best colors for that mold.

As far as my wallet is immediately concerned there is no such thing as a Cosmos ever released in Transformers Legacy, this a proof of concept, KO, or custom prototype, and the last official Cosmos was back in Titan Return 2016 which is the best update of Cosmos. OR Cosmos always retailed for $75 and $25 is just the flash discount price.

Love the look of this figure, so sad that he's stuck as an exclusive that Walmart doesn't want to sell more of right now. He's really impressive for what he is; he was originally going to be a retool of Origins Bumblebee with just a new head, chest, and cockpit section, but the designers got creative enough to make an entire new toy out of just the new molds a retool would get. Really hope Cosmos gets another print run once the store exclusivity expires.

Okay so, Cosmos was planned as a retool of Origins Bumblebee, with budget allocated for three tools worth of new parts. Takara's mad genius engineers figured out how to get an entire functional toy out of just those three new molds, and didn't reuse any of Origins Bumblebee at all. Cosmos was one per case because Walmart's toy buyer did not expect the character to be popular enough (for which he later acknowledged he screwed up on that), and naturally Hasbro can't force Walmart to take more of a toy than they want. As for Velocitron Hot Rod, Walmart canceled that before production started. A very small number of internal use samples were made for deco proofs, which is where the stock photos came from, but there is not some quantity of retail units sitting warehoused somewhere waiting for Ross or Ollie's to come get them.

I hate how bumblebee and cosmos are both hard to get while the other mini bots are relatively easy to get. Cliffjumper got two releases, huffer’s still available in some places, beach comber and brawn are pre orders, and warpath seemed to be praised by everyone so I assume everyone had one. Then you get the most popular minibot (bumblebee) and he’s a Walmart exclusive who can’t be sold anywhere else with no reissue, and cosmos is another Walmart accessory with again no reissue
@prismavoid3764

Bumblebee is especially frustrating because they _have_ re-used the Volkswagon mold since then, so I can only assume that the store exclusivity is over now - they made a Goldbug which is just Bee with a new head and deco, but then for some reason they only released it as part of an expensive multipack with a bunch of minor redecoes that I don't think most people would care about. They just refuse to make more easily available for some reason and it's annoying

Here's an animation idea. I understand that this was just a diet review, so you hold back on taking things too far. Here's my idea for the scene where Cosmos is hovering over the race with the various coloured flags. Idea 1: Isolate the Figure and Mask out the armature so that he is hovering without a visible support. 2. Because he is on an isolated layer, move him around very slightly in post to give him a very subtle hovering effect. I loved your sound work and all the masking you did to make him fly in this video. I now believe in UFOs! When you kids get a bit older, try watching BATTERIES NOT INCLUDED with them. It's a real tear-jerker with great stop motion. We all enjoyed it.
