Mint in Box #11 – Reveal The Shield Legends Wave One
A brand new year means a brand new Transformers sub-line. This time, the gimmick of the ‘Reveal the Shield’ is one that was pioneered 27 years ago! That’s right, the rub-signs return and this somehow warrants a rebranding. Apologies if this sounds churlish but the 2006 ‘Classics’ line had this gimmick too and I don’t see the logic in having this narrative mystery behind the allegiance of Transformers when most of the line is comprised … Read entire article »
