Summary: This week on RFC: The recent Hasbro Press and Investor presentation hinted at a new Transformers series coming in 2018. We dig into that and let you know what to expect. We get our first look at Takara Tomy's Overlord, and it's oddly underwhelming. We also talk about the upcoming Masterpiece Targetmaster Hot Rod and its odd and confusing origins, the Perfect Effect upgrade kits for Powermaster Prime that take your Leader Class toy from being good to great, Paramount tries to save face with Chinese investors after a streak of disappointing movies including The Last Knight, and way way waaaaaaay more!
