There hasn't been a nice thing said about that Megatron

>>11052639
Trust me, it will sell out because the Hascult will. They don't even have to say praise, they just do as they're told. Anyone who speaks out is either in a vocal minority or "I hate it but will buy it anyway to support the brand".

>>11052705
it's coming at like the end of next year, after two waves of bayshit. So expect it to be hard as fuck to get considering it'll be out around August after two waves of shelfwarmers.

>>11052738
Bayformers is better than idw faggotry

>>11052740
Studio Series is for movies. There wasn't an IDW movie so don't know why you bring that up.

>>11052741
that guy has been seething about IDW for literal years. He does it in every Transformers thread.

>>11052743
Yea it's really funny how those wokies over at idw went broke and never found new work making terrible comics no one reads.

>>11052746
At least two of the people who drew for them still draw robots

>>11052740
Both had a lot of potential but both are trash plotwise, other than the constructicons and dinobots, the Bay bots look generic as fuck, IDW had more interesting designs over all.

>>11052756
Idw is ass faggotry, bayformers has better toys

Is there a statement from Warden or Archer about Hasbro higher ups having no faith in BW from around 2011 onwards? It feels like something that is true, but I can't find any articles on it.

Should I get a United Silverbolt now, or do I hold out for the possibility of a Premium Finished figure later on?

>>11052763
Archer left about then so I doubt he would say something on the matter. Hell, might even do the reverse case and find remaking Beast Wars guys boring since he liked making new things more than just replicating media.

>>11052769
no

>>11052769
Would different paint really improve how you feel about Silverbolt?

>>11052741
Well, Studio Series already expanded their definition of "studio" once to include video game studios, so I suppose it wouldn't be outside the realm of possibility for them to expand it again to include comic book "studios." After all, there are only so many movie/game designs, so after those run out, the options are to end the line, redo old figures over again, or expand its scope.

>>11052782
>redo old figures over again
2027 is the anniversary of the 2007 movie, so you know they'll do something with that

>>11052778
He was in charge with the disastrous Uni 2.0 Cheetor and Dinobots though. And BW10th. And Cybertron's Jungle Planet. Its not like he wouldn't have experience with BW not moving by that point, but yeah. Its more likely Warden or someone post Archer.

>>11052786
I don't think there's any market left for old Bayshit anymore. Fans of the bayshit aren't actually Transformers fans so they've long since abandoned ship, especially with the absolutely cratering box office take of the movies in recent years. I cannot imagine wasting money on redoing the ugly ass 07 crew yet again, especially when they've already got their MPs. Not worth revisiting them at all.

>>11052782
Considering that they still have lots of notable omissions from the movies, can plausibly redo a whole bunch of guys because they appeared in the 1986 movie to some capacity and only barely touched WFC and even only have a possible two-pack based on grunt units from Devastation out of all games that ever existed and got sidetracked with ones based on scrapped concept art for Bumblebee movie, running out of guys isn't really a concern. Plus they have a comic book-based line already.

>>11052791
We should just get the bay characters in G1 stylisation. I want my fucking Barricade and Blackout in G1 styling Hasbro.

>>11052796
They made G1 Barricade and he was just a Prowl with a different head. Don't ask for such things. If you want such things, become a character designer for some future media and force them to make an accurate version.

>>11052799
There is also Authentics, which is TLK G1-ised, but way more in the spirit of the character.

>>11052806
Everyone knows the Masterpiece line is a joke and has been for years and years.

>>11052806
In line with how they have approached the MP line for a while. But you won't seem most the differences in combined mode at least.

>>11052754
yeah and those designs suck

>>11052769
you should hold out for a discount. premium finish is going to be negligible this time, there's no missing paint apps i'm aware of. at most you could get a more toon-accurate beast head deco.
also we haven't gotten any new PF announcements in a while (no lio convoy or black lio, for example) sooo... don't hold your breath on that. just hold out for a lower price. it's a good but flawed toy.

Nominate me the next g1 vintage combiner team I should get after Defensor.
Already have:
- Menasor
- Computron
- Piranacon

>>11052821
Monstructor

>>11052817
Instead of Premium Finish they seem to be making a retool version.

>>11052813
>>11052810
It's not even

>buy toy or toon version

It's

>buy toon version then buy toy version WITHOUT TRAILER but it has parts to put on the trailer

Sucking up to the cartoon accuracy fanatics was a mistake. Hopefully Missing Link and deluxe toy G1 Prime are a sign they're shifting focus to toy accuracy.

>fuckers only bitch about the Ironhide toy because the toon that came after looked different

Give me a toy Ironhide update next.

>>11052825
Enjoy it shattering...

>>11052821
Bruticus is probably the best. Abominus is kind of shit.

Is inferno an autobot?

>>11052806
The MP line is a joke in general but selling the toy detailed version as an incomplete toy that requires you to buy the tooner version too is absolutely disgusting.

>>11052806
>Fans Hobby
Never liked the proportions they use on their bots, they either look bloated like dreamwave tf fanart or weirdly lanky with long torsos.

>>11052791

Stop making up shit. I'm a bayformers fan and I'm still here. Bayformers aren't the only thing I collect, silly.

Also "bootleg" well fuck you, Hasbro toys are bootleg-tier poor quality. 3P delivers.

it's too much for what it costs, but i'm not against the idea. a roboturtle is cool, even if that van is definitely going to be out of scale with any other transformers I can think of. I don't much care for the "it's the front of the turtle van" shield design, and putting it on the torso isn't much better. could have at least let the parts move around somehow. but it's fine.

>>11052964

Learn how to use your camera to take a photo

No one likes you diosoth idw went woke and broke

>>11052981
1. there exists a gap filler kit for him (that also extends his sword)
2. his sword is pretty hard to remove from under the tail, so if you do store it there in dino mode, do it gently.
3. there's a step that is really fucking hard to figure out, where you have to unintuitively push a part on the sword hilt MORE into the way in order to pull out the side flaps. just don't give up and look very very carefully at the instructions.
4. he fucking rules and kicks ass, even if he's got side kibble and an undersized landsaur front half.
5. there's a visibly incomplete part of the paint on each of the dinos' backs.

my problem with this guy has so little to do with him being a pullemapart.
if your pelvis is longer than your thighs, you have a proportion problem. if you're wielding what is clearly rocket nozzles as a melee weapon, you have a parts-distribution problem (put them on his back, so he can jetpack-shield-bash!)
