The Transformers Movie kinda wanted to "expand" its options by jumping to a new setting but looking back on it retrospectively it seems like they shot themselves in the foot by moving to that new setting they killed off a bunch of characters to do it.
I wouldn't want a new setting in most cases unless the story told in the original one is completely played out and requires it. I think the "new idea" of having Energon around is kinda helpful as it can be used as a key to unlock a lot of things.. especially since in certain situations it can have metagenic properties (see Botbots). So could be used as a means to excuse or explain a lot of possible future story points such as why the Aliens take an interest in the Earth or hang around after being hired to do something here (if they ever want to include them) as Extra Terrestrials are less of a both if the inclusion of Transformers is already heavily implied by the existence of Energon (regardless of story content or not). I kinda think it is useful as it opens up a lot of explanations for a lot of things that might otherwise seem "Impossible" heck even the shell casing laser weapons could be explained by "Energon Bullets" creating a laser like effect. As well as being used as a power source for things like Jetpacks, Trubble Bubbles and making them way more practical to use due to the extra terrestrial energy source powering them now. Though The Ferret does kinda look like it runs on gasoline as does the VAMP The Hiss Tank absolutely has an Energon reactor in it (you can even take the engine cover off and look at it). That seems like the exact thing Neca would want to make a Water Tower playset... it is relevant to so many franchises and would be super useful for a city diorama.

A mostly new sculpt would be ideal, the hips and thighs could stand to be a little curvier like the new Retro Scarlett. I do think the COIL/retro head sculpt is superior in terms quality to the Crimson, but something about the Crimson one feels more like Baroness. Maybe it's just the wavy hair and glasses though.
It's a battle to see what falls off first - Baroness' glasses or Zarana's arm. |

Should clarify that on Tarkin had respect for Vader, and likely knew he was Anakin.
Lordy, the current lore is stupid. Vader told Galen Erso's wife to get him to design a weakness in the Death Star knowing Galen would leak the existence of the Death Star to the rebels who would then steal the plans which he'd put little effort into getting back then have Leia escape with them and then captured then let her escape AGAIN to make Tarkin think he was setting a trap for the rebels but he really wanted them to shoot the exhaust port. All because Tarkin insulted Vader at some point and had no idea he did. |
