The best thing about the WFC toyline for me is the Matrix of Leadership accessories being fully 5mm compatible, because I can turn any sword or weapon into the Star [weapon type] now, without having to buy that one 3rd party sword

I've never heard this mentioned anywhere: did Takara specifically choose these three guns for their Pre-Transformer MicroChange Gun-Robo toyline because each one belongs to a Lupin III cast member? Walther P-38 (Lupin), Magnum (Jigen), Browning (Fujiko)

The German broadcast of Armada skipped straight from episode 7 to episode 40; apparently due to Hasbro Germany insisting on having the whole series aired in just two months to promote the toyline better. (2003)

The Classics toyline actually explain this. Essentially, the Power of Grayskull alters Adam's physical appearance to those who do not know his secret as He-Man...to them he appears more rugged and barbaric when transformed. 🙂

IDW works in the Galvatronus and Sky Reign combiners from the Combiner Wars toyline for the sake of synergy. However, the whereabouts of the characters in the comics prevent them from being made of the same components as the toys, bearing little resemblance as a result.(2016)

Okay... here's one... what's your favourite thing from Transformers fiction that's never been in the toyline, but you think would make an amazing ACTION FEATURE or ACCESSORY or TOY? Some examples... Ninja Turtle robot Unicron dressup, Thunderwing's Chair, the Space Bridge...
