Age of Primes

I can't say I'll skip any of the combiner redos if they get around to them. I definitely want Abominus, as he was the only one I had complete as a kid. I love Computron's design and individual components, so I'd buy him too. Defensor is on the boring side to me, but I do like the variety of vehicles that make him, and the Protectobots theme. If there was any combiner I wouldn't ask for, it's Superion, who I think is the most boring of the G1 combiners. Those jets are all still indistinguishable from each other to me.
 
I appreciate that this go-round there's not much reuse aside from the same character again in different colors. I loved Combiner Wars at the time, but some of the reuse made them feel less authentic.
 
I was perfectly content with Combiner Wars, but in retrospect, it's clear that they can make them more stylistically accurate, and closer to the anime models. I have all the main combiners, the two female combiners, and the Autobot repaints of bots who weren't combiners. I'm not in a rush to replace any of them. But once they get around to them, I'd be shocked if I passed.
