What are you hoping for?
>>11631838>What are you hoping forI still need Megazarak and Cryotek.
>>11631838>What are your favorite redecos or retools? What are you hoping for?A personal couple of favorites of mine are Beast Wars Buzzsaw and Grimlock.
>>11631844Cryotek would be nice but desu I'd probably only buy one if it came with an ice blast effect and only so I could give that effect to Megatron.My biggest want for a while now has been a Marvel G1 Blaster. I made a custom earlier in the year but I'd still love an official one. Hopefully this rumoured Studio Series comic line will get to him before too long.
>>11631838>What are your favorite redecos or retools? What are you hoping for?Only reason I haven't pulled the trigger on Bruticus is because part of me wishes for G2 repaints
>>11631854I know we'll get them. Every Bruticus gets G2'd. Although I think we'll get Ruination first.
>>11631838Metalhawk and Vector Prime, though for the latter, I just prefer not to pull the jet mode's tailfin up to be truer to the original toy's design.Still waiting on Reverse Convoy and Jungle Planet Scourge, the former using tech from Megatronus and SS86 Megs, and the latter being a straight-up remold of Onyx Prime with less compromise or consequence compared to the six-legged griffin of the base mold.
>>11631838>What are your favorite redecosI couldn't find SS Grimlock for the longest time, local shop got some Toxitron Grimlocks in stock and honestly the G1 version looks kinda boring to me now? Shame that other G2 Dinobots aren't as crazy
While fiddling with my Nemesis prime I made a discovery I have never seen mentioned anywhere about the big convoy mold... the spark crystal in his chest is backwards on every single version of the mold. The original even has metalic paint on the "back" side of it to draw light to the maximal logo
>>11631854>>11631856Step aside G2 Bruticus and Ruination, it's BATTLE GAIA's time.
>>11631860The glue holding the spark crystal in on my Nemesis was extremely weak and the crystal fell out. It also had big globs of glue across the round part of the crystal.I sanded it all of, polished it and now it looks like this.
>>11631858These upcoming guys are a crazier colorscheme like that Grimlock, though unfortunately no stripes. Is there no concept art of wackier color G2 Snarl and Slag ?
>>11631861I'm G2titucs fan but if they somehow did this I'd be stoked, even if the colors aren't all that exciting, they aren't *worse* than G1 at all. I think though I actually prefer Vortex and Brawls colors there.
>>11631860>The original even has metalic paint on the "back" side of it to draw light to the maximal logoI think all the spark crystals did. I used to take all mine out as a kid and pretended I was Megatron genociding and enslaving everyone.
>>11631872What I'm saying is that the metallic back of the spark crystal is facing the front of the chest, not back, meaning his spark crystal would be functional if it was facing the correct direction.
>>11631838>What are you hoping for?I just want a new Torca, dude.He's in my top three Fuzors, I just want to transform him again.>>11631649>>11631657>>11631663>>11631667Well that sucks, do you think it's possible to swap the heads?It looks like this screw holds the whole thing together.
>>11631902Am I able to access the screw without ripping his shoulder if, I mean.
>>11631902>>11631904If a chinese kid in the 90s could do it, so can you
>>11631802>>11631803>>11631805What T-Wrecks is this?
When do they put these out? Local walmart has one hidden in the garden section
>>11631944Black Friday
>>11631809>I was intro Transformers long before I ever watched any of the shows or moviesI once made several people in this thread mad revealing that i don't really care about tf-characters or cartoons.As a kid in the 90s i saw only that weird japanese one where some kid rides the Optimus and they are not "sentient" so kids riding them. or something like that. - i saw like 3 episodes.Then i tried to became a fan when Animated appeared and tried to go into TF-circles BUT literally every nerd absolutely hated Animated. I remember being banned on one forum because i drew 2 fanarts of Animated transformers and people instantly started shitting on my drawings because they hated that TV-show (it was a year when it aired).So i knda became a hater of tf-community for a while because it left me with negative feelings and i didnt like Bayformers so whole 2000-2010s for me were empty but i still was a fan of Transformers The Movie and was listening to the OST in non stop (i still do up to this day im not even kidding-i was listening to it yesterday even lol).I became even more attached to transformers when Combiner Wars-TitansReturn-Power of the Primes appeared and THEN when i finally started to post photos of my toys online again.And this time the community is way more chill than in the 00-2010s.i absolutely fucking hated it back then. worst experience ever.But yeah...i dont care about media that much.I never watched them as a kid. And when i tried to be a fan - i was always ckicked out.I just like toys because they are fun to play with.PS:Funniest part - i create my own squads/stories and decepticons and autobots are always mixed together.Because the concept of "2 teams fighting each other" was never drilled into my brain.Up to this day i dont even know half of the characters.
>>11631952>And when i tried to be a fan - i was always ckicked out.Nobody can stop you from liking something, retard
>>11631958>Nobody can stop you from liking something, retardCalm down bayfaggot. Animated > G1
...what?
>>11631959hurt feefees
>>11631982>hurt feefeesbayfag lol
>>11631982Not sure where he's getting the bayshit from, it's a total non sequitur.
>>11631988cope bayfag
>>11631992But I don't like the movies, anon. You've called me that three times now, why? All I said was that other people's opinions can't stop you from liking a thing. That's literally true, why are you mad about it? It's your own point about not caring for any TF media, even though other anons may disapprove.
>>11631952Man. I got onto Transformers with Beast Wars and we had internet access around the end of it. I remember so many trukk not munkey dudes it was unreal. I also remember /co/a first reaction to Animated lmao. I have so many fond memories of toy customizes and learning about g1 too though. And 4chan was so much fun back then especially here. Like some guy just ran toy giveaways and shit. I'm really upset DJW died so young
>>11631952Curious as to what circles you were within. I remember Animated having very positive reception upon release.
Bayverse has such cool designs
>>11632024>Curious as to what circles you were within. I remember Animated having very positive reception upon release.WhatnoLiterally everybody hated it. It was more hated than "trucc no monke" shit because this time people hated it because it "babyfied transformers" and "made it look like a show stupid kids".I know nowadays tf-cartoon look even worse but back then we had like 3 tf-shows so the bar was that high.Btw i was posting my stuff even here on /toy/ around 2007 and people hated Animated even in this thread.>>11632007>Man. I got onto Transformers with Beast Wars and we had internet access around the end of it. I remember so many trukk not munkey dudes it was unreal.yeah i forgot to tell that i'm a BW-guy. When i say "transformers" i mean _the_ famous transformers Optimus/Bee/Starscream - all those famous toys and stuff.I separate it from Beast Wars because BW is always on the side. at least it feels like that.i always tried to "enter circles" of transformers fans (the G1 and other "famous guys" fans) but always met with shitty giga-autism bullshit and craled back to my BW-cave.Only when Combiner Wars/Titans Returns were released i finally found my place here because gen Z started growing up and they didnt have that amount of autism so the whole TF-community became more chill.now most of "autists" are in their 40-50s or dead.thanks fucking god. I can finally enjoy "Transformers"
>>11632028
These two just showed up. Not gonna have a chance to open them or mess with them for a few hours, but I like their boxes.
>>11631959>>11631985>>11631992starting to understand why you were kicked out
