Forgive my poor pictures but I'm madly in love.

Any thread that doesn't say this and does not adhere to it or lacks the pastebins is not a legit /tfg/ thread
I'm all in on these guys, and maybe the rumored Sentinel if it's cool enough.I want a gun Megatron so badly. And Soundwave + Cassettes as well as every single possible Seeker variant. My only collectibles now, not counting books, are PS1/2 games and Missing Link Transformers.It's a living .
>>11067088So why did you make this thread on Page 5?
>>11067088> Jerkop
>>11067092I didn’t make the thread, but figured if someone is gonna do it might as well be done right
>>11067092Clearly not OP, but someone trying to salvage OP's mess
obvious troll thread
Why don't we just talk about robots guys.
>>11067084So wait, the upcoming Legacy "g1 universe" Prime *isn't* the ML mold?? Its actually its own mold- which I assume borrows heavily from MLOP?
>>11067116No anon, the $25 mainline deluxe is not the same toy as the $90 import
please stop replying to obvious trolling?
>>11067096>>11067098What's the point of posting that new threads don't get started until page 9 or 10 if you ignore that?
New mousepad at my shitty office job.
>>11067116The deluxe mold is shit compared to this.> Less fidelity to the 1984/5 original (ML is almost 1:1)> Hollow thighs, unpainted ugly grey.> Paint on eyes so thin it looks green.> Side of bumper not even painted.> So short it's almost Scout sized or smaller.> No dedicated trailer.> Lame Energon axe doesn't fully close over the fist.It's got a ball-jointed head and a moving bumper flap, but the trade offs in exchange are insane.Only good for people who couldn't afford the $120 for a full C-01 set. Scalping isn't even an excuse cause they're doing another production run already and you can get it rn at BBTS for retail.Is pic related for real???
>>11067143>Is pic related for real???I don't see how it would be otherwise with the bending arms in the middle
>>11067084>>11067088>Page 5>Fucked up dogshit OP>Pastebin fucked>No link to oldHoly shitJust ban these retards trolling and fucking with Generals
>>11067156I mean to ask is this leak confirmed legit or could it be a shop?If it is real it looks great to me except I'd really like a version with all the accessories plus the stock and silencer.
>>11067162The only thing that would be questionable to me is him being silver and red when the Takara version was grey and blue
>>11067166I mean, TakTom has used the red but with their accessories and the stock and silencer on the two most recent reissues.I can see them doing the Hasbro colors as a full set with stock, silencer, and every single accessory from both versions.Then a flat gray with blue version with just the sword and gun and maybe scope.
>>11067162the shine bends as the arm bends, so i'm thinking shoop>>11067161just keep chatting in the old thread til this one gets deleted.
>>11067178>the shine bendsWut?
>>11067250>>11067250The reflection on the arm on our right should be a straight line but it bends with the new photoshopped elbow.Tbh this looks like the stock photos to the old toy.But maybe it's legit? Idk. If they ever do one obviously it'll look like this.
I sort of miss this piece of shit.
>>11067252I have no ides what you're seeing, you know the top side of his arm is curved right?
>which way, hascuck?
>>11067127Yo I've been wanting a new mousepad, whered ya nab it?
>>11067143Yeah on second thought I'm kimda tarded for not realizing this. I just sorta gave it one glance and thought "they're just reusing the missing link for legacy? How uninspired".As for that pic... god I hope its real. Though I can't help but be disappointed that I'm not seeing the extended barrel and stock.
>>11067317New one looks better but I don’t care gor this mold either way.
>>11067371There are people that like the stock and muszzle?
>>11067379It will probably get redirected, I’ve had something randomly go to the new york sort center even though I live on the west coast
>>11067380There are people who don't? But regardles sof preference- if this is indeed a real Missing Link type toy I think its important that all of the accessories be included. We coukd of course be seeing the "cartoon" version and not the "toy" version assuming they are doing what they did with Prime.
>>11067317neither
Cute altmode for a decepticon
>>11067513Best Skids mold use this far, will get proper deco next year.
>>11067518bonk
>>11067525He's mid
>>11067528
>>11067532I would like Chase remold a bit more
>>11067536Also Blokees are really fun, try at least one
>>11067520for the coneheads I prefer the old classics mold simply because they don't cheatI'm so tired of the increasing reliance on faux parts for autistic cartoon accuracy
>>11067087>Forgive my poor picturesSch'fine, anon. At least you post pictures and enjoy toys. /tfg/ could use more of that.I had a similar religious experience when I got this guy, so I know where you're coming from. I never even owned the original Optimus Prime; it's just that this is a simple, fun, well-designed bot with a gorgeous alt mode, made from quality materials. It's just the antidote for all the mainline dreck Hasbro has been shoveling out lately, I don't care how overpriced it was.
>>11067258I always wanted him just for the accessories. The fucking birb-saber and twin-barrel blasters are exquisite.
>>11067550holy fucki-is that a n-n-new photo?!
>>11067550Wow you got this Conboy looking goooood.
>>11067593Is that NO photo?Disgusting.
>>11067378>Chrome is a dumb gimmick that looks bad & i hard to fix when it's damaged. Painting every millimeter also invites paint wear, bare plastic won't suffer from that.I don't know how G1 Prime chrome is different, but I've never seen a chipped version. I have had my TRU reissue for 20 years with no damage, and I got it as a kid.
>>11067087>>11067550There's only one thing better than ML Convoy and that's ML Convoy riding MP Rhinox.
Should I pre-order this nigga or not?! RrEEEeeee
>>11067740No, it's not a good mold. Save your money.
>>11067740Wait for SS86 in near future (2026-2028)
>>11067748>implying we will survive Super Covids in 2025
Cool deco but skip
>>11067754Alt mode>>11067749Yeah twats are scaring us again with it, at least it means war will end soon.
>>11067754>>11067757>G2 symbolI will now buy your slop
>>11067768G2 symbol is why it seems like a shop
>>11067744B-but... I need a Soundwave! What makes it bad?>>11067748I don't know if I'll still be alive then.
>>11067757>G2 symbolDropped
>>11067802He's fat, has ugly holdovers from siege, somehow completely fucks up turning into a rectangle and you're paying leader price for a voyager with 3 micromasters and two of them are very not goodIf you want a worthwhile soundwave you're not finding it in mainline
>>11067807...he's a G2 character, anon
>>11067550>religious experience I am actually trying to take really good care of myself and pray every day that I live to see the release of MP Ginrai. I got 86 Bee last night and wrote a very long winded review nitpicking the shit out of him but didnt post it. Between then and now Ive transformed him about 10 times and of course he grew on me, a lot. The designer really kept making a FUN TOY a high priority here, to the point it seems like making every step feel as satisfying as possible. And when I say “feel”, I mean literally tactile enjoyment. I think he was very intentionally created as a fidget toy. You get a little of every trick as he swings and rotates smoothly and there are tons of affirmative clicks and thwoops everywhere on him. Additionally, Im pretty certain that alot of his shortcomings are due to the fact he was designed to be totally modular. Every one of his car panels is designed to be swapped out for retooled parts leaving the core of the figure intact. Expect to see this mold redone to infinity and back.
Oh yeah and the last thing I wanted to say was that this figure was for sure shoehorned into the Studio Series line. Someone is on a serious mission to get all the minibots out by any means necessary because this Bee is exactly like all the other minibots in design philosophy and does not actually belong in SS at all. God bless that man. Please bring on the remaining minibots before I die
>>11067827Most G2 characters don't have a G2 faction symbol. Even Hasbro didn't believe in it when it was new.
>>11067824I-I'm not coping, you are! *pre-orders it anyway*
>>11067161A rangeban would be needed
>Random daily reason Hasbro should hire me:1 oer case of 86 Bees shouldve been a smiling face chase variant. Hasbro isnt fun like that anymore tho
>>11067827Yeah but it looks ugly
>>11067868Aren't chase figures more a Japanese thing?
>>11067754>lazy head swap retoolszzz
>>11067842I’m still waiting for BBTS to get Beachcomber.
>>11067833Hasbro can’t match yellow paint to save their fucking lives. I hope Takara keeps the DCS line going to fix all their garbage.
actual new thread is over here >>11067923
>>11067926I’m not encouraging your autistic spam over the OP formatting, so nah.
>>11067926Can we fucking not.
>>11067919I showed him to my brother, a very casual TF fan, his very first words out of his mouth were “wow that color matching is awful”. Yep. Hes actually three fucking shades of yellow. (Two colors of yellow plastic and then the paint) The paint actually matches great, but it needed a second coat.
>>11067842Minus CJ, is he shorter than all the other minibots?
>>11067926I get that this thread was clearly created by a troll OP, but there’s no reason to create a new thread when actual discussion is going on. This is what happened with the LEGO general and now there’s like 6 of those at a time.
>>11067919How is that Universe Lambo mold? I always thought it looks kinda neat. Torso proportions are a bit weird, perhaps?
>>11067964It's still one of my favorites and I like the alt mode a lot. In general I prefer 2006-2011 CHUG over post-Siege crap.
>>11067964It's dated, but it's one of the greatest tricks HasTak ever pulled
>>11067954I believe so, I can let you know for sure in a few hours
>>11067961legitimate discussion is not enough to legitimize a thread, sorrywe've tried being nice, he's going to keep making his own threads -regardless- until he starts spamming 7 at once. There is no other option.
>>11067985>until he starts spamming 7 at onceHow are you any different?
>>11067919>>11067966>>11067967man, at some point I need to look back through all the Transformers toylines from before I was collecting and put together a want list, there's some good shit that I missed out on
>>11067985Who is "he"?
>>11068000Goanon, I’m assuming
>>11067987making one at a time, making a new one only when the previous one hits page 9 or image limit.>>11068000i see you're new here. someone will fill you in. maybe come by the real thread. there's a guy with a bunch of screencaps and everything to catch you up to speed.
>>11068002I didn't make that thread. I haven't bothered making threads in months at this point, it isn't funny anymore. These days I just post normally and contribute photos/OC. Dunno who the OP is, probably just some newfriend who doesn't know how touchy this thread is about OP formatting.
>>11067964I agree it's a neat idea but it's a very poor figure, and the best version of it is also basically impossible to get
>>11067954Yes, he is much smaller than the other deluxe minibots. He reverse mass shifts, hes the same size as the others in alt mode
>>11067985Sometimes newfags just dont want to scroll for the thread falling off the board and they just want a turn to be OP>t. Was a newfag 15 years ago and did this and got accused of being the Nemesis OP. Yes this has been going on for 15 years you guys are autists.
>>11067161>No link to oldAs it should be, this is a "missing link" thread!
>>11067754>clear plastic parts>clear plastic neckWelp, guess that's a skip. I was really looking forward to this guy as well.
>>11068036>laser rod has clear plastic>this is a bad thingwut.
>>11068006Remember when FunPub cheaped out on the plastic for this toy's shrunken pinhead by making it extra small and didn't even let people know about it until after they'd paid for the $60 figure?You can go on about how bad Hasbro is, but FunPub will always be worse and that's not even going into the people they paid to write shitty comics and prose fanfictions about "Reference, Reference, Suck My Dick For MISB Overlord, Reference, Reference!"
>>11068046NTA but you don't want crucial parts of the figure like the neck joint made out of clear plastic. The weapons are cool, but that head isn't gonna stay on his shoulders for long
>>11067258Thats the best Nemesis Prime has ever looked, the 2 dedicated headsculpts really sell it.
>>11068046Clear plastic ball joints have the risk of breaking off at the ball section due to the stress of moving the area. For a good example of this, check out T30 Scoop, his two common breakage issues are his clear plastic cockpit hinges and his clear plastic ball joint head.
>>11068046It doesn't come with a laser.
On location with Pablo at TFCon

>>11068112that will never not be funny

>>11068124shame about that nerdy noggin

Made a quick visual guide for MPs for the cartoon cast, who has an MP and who has yet to get one. Note this only applies to the first 3 season and the movie. If I feel like it, I might make a guide for later season.Season 1 Autobots.
Season 2 cons.
Season 2 bots. And if you're wondering why Elita's group and War Dawns trio is here, well Nightbird got an MP so cartoon only bots are free game.
Season 2 cons. If you're wondering if I'm missing some cons. No, unless you consider Nightbird to be one.
Season 3 and movie bots.
And finally season 3 and movie cons.
>>11068161Man I wish his name was Streetfighter. Then he could do Hadouken.
>>11068155
>>11068164Pretty sure Haslab Unicron counts as MP
>>11068162>No, unless you consider Nightbird to be one.NIghtbird and Autobot Spike should be included. Also B.O.T and Purple Griffin.
>>11068201Bot and the Griffin aren't even alive, just remote control and a mobile base respectively.
>>11068162Halonix and the previous primes aren't really Characters, but they got as much or more on screen time than Scamper, Skids or Cranix.
>>11068155I think if you want all MP scale bots from G1, you’re going to have to go 3PAlso I don’t see Rebirth bots
Redpill me on the super7 transformer ultimates
>>11068211shit
>>11068214why tho, besides the fact that they don’t transform
>>11068205Purple Griffin needs to be retconned asA: alive andB: a Decepticon rival to Sky Lynx
>>11068211If you want your transformers to look like the G1 cartoon, they’re your best bet. However, they don’t pose very well.
>>11067914And you always will
>>11068164Couldn't you count HasLab Unicron?
>>11068050>after they'd paidCorrection: they never let anyone know period and people didn't find out until the toy was literally in their hands.
It's a shame he's so hard to find for a good price because DJ looks great. Cicadacon too TBF but DJ's colours are cool.
>>11068190>>11068245Why would it count?
>>11068210>Also I don’t see Rebirth bots>Note this only applies to the first 3 seasons and the movieReading comprehension anon.
>>11068235That makes sense, but the last two times they made a Sky-Lynx they passed over doing that.
>>11068279What, you want a bigger one?
>>11068245>>11068190No.
>>11068270yeah I want this guy remade like you wouldn't believe.Hopefully they wouldn't simply shrink the cicada head down (I know they would, fuck) to make the robot mode more proportional.. because that's where the combiner head is and.. yeah they'd probably make that tiny too. fuck.the best thing to do is to move the robot head onto his back (there should be room to tuck it into a flap between the wings) and then the cicada head parts can form a reasonably-sized chest
>>11068295yes
>>11068102Buy me fh Clench
>>11068050How much did Walky and M got my donk sucked Sipher get paid for making shit for fun pubes?
Hmm today I will go out and check the stores, surely this will go better than the last 5 times where I left the house only to find nothing
>package went 2 days going to a different distribution center and then back to the one near meFuck man, it could have arrived yesterday if they weren't being blockheads.
>>11068322What are you looking for?>>11068327What’s in the package?
>>11068351Robots.
>>11067740If you don't have a Netflix Soundwave, yes.If you do, just wait until the tapes hit eBay.
>>11068356What kind?
>>11068407Plastic (not an actual robot with motors and such).
Pulse updated their site and it sucks
>>11068418looks alrightkinda like ebay
>>11068418Is there a way to display more products per row?
Just bought these beauties
>>11068418>Dark mode memeFuck off with this shit

Is it true there is a new autobot multipack with Optimus and Jetfire coming out next year?
>>11068555Possibly with Jolt and Ratchet
>>11068436>titans return instead of LGcringe
>>11068006I loved the idea for this, I just wish its head wasn't so tiny
>>11067740The DCS version is better
>>11068523Is next year's Alpha Trion going to be a lion too?
I got an email saying this guy is coming in stock soon, is the mold any good?
>>11068867Nah it sucks monkey fuck.
>>11068867as long as it doesn't yellow, yeah
>>11068112lmao
>>11068036Stop hamhanding your toys.
>>11068848No, just combine the three into a super robot.
>>11068785The whole mold in general fucking sucks. I can't wait for them to make a Commander Broadside.
>>11068908john warden was a mistake
>>11068908>>11068942Broadside is fucked by the requirements for being Broadside.
>>11068436Hope those are Canadian dollars, tehy're neat but noth worth that much.>>11068785None is accuarte to anything, I had to mix both to get something closer to cartoon colors.>>11068908Thats mistransformed, but yeah he needs the fanmode jet config.
>>11068980Both, I removed the extra red bits (belly button and neck popping) on the Lg and gave him the TR forearms (for the extra paint stripe) and a second headmaster.
>>11068908Yeah, commander would be the best budget class for him.
>>11068946Bro it takes a special kind of retard to fuck up an airplane transformer>slab>add cockpit, nosecone, wings, tail finsEvery transformer jet gets that right. Pretenders get it right. Fucking the ORIGINAL Broadside got it right.
>>11068993Far too boxy to airplane.
>>11068988The earmuffs/neck brace area is just for Tidal Wave anyway, so no loss there.
>>11068995Forgot to deploy them on that pic, but I use it on the alt robot mode.
>>11068951I like tr so it's OK. Also have money to burn
>>11069010what head is that?
>>11068993That G1?
>>110690243d printed faceplate, same for the missiles and axe.
>>11068322I don't bother shopping in person anymore, the selection always sucks assI think the last toy I ever bought at a physical store was Siege Shockwave
>>11068988Broadsidefags are such strange creatures
Still working on the diaclone gals. Having a good time with it. Might have to start picking up these figures.
>>11067089>sentinelwhat?
>>11068867Not interested enough that I'm gonna buy him online, but if I see him in person I might pick him up. Hopefully he doesn't have yellowing problems
>>11069085Listing for a Sentinel Prime according to the leaker on tfw2005.
>>11069085It’s a recolor of optimus
>>11067084I hope they don’t delay ML Megatron too long
>>11069225anon...
>>11069063Just like every tripplechanger fan.
TR plastic is shit don’t pay anything over 25 for any of them.
>>11068991wait is this the same one but modified to suck less?
>>11069234What?
>>11067089I think they’ll do Starscream next just because it’s a dozen easy repaints
>>11069253Hopefully the inevitable update will have both robot mode designs
>>11067754boring
>>11069323The missing link Megatron picture was a hoax. Hasbro's made it pretty clear they don't intend to do gun Megatron ever again
>>11069391>Hasbro's made it pretty clear they don't intend to do gun Megatron ever againWho the fuck cares about Hasbro, if ML Megatron happens it's going to be a Takara release and they don't give a shit about that no gun nonsense.
>>11069391"making that clear" would get them in nearly as much hot water as saying they want to, which in turn would be nearly as suicidal as doing it. they haven't touched the concept and they never will unless things change radically in terms of protecting speech and silencing retards.
>>11069391>hascucklmao
What’s being revealed at SDCC other than Ss86 Optimus?
>>11069158Instead of Ultra Magnus? Lame.
>>11069425How would ML Ultra Magnus even work? The armor is effectively a flat sheet of plastic with white Prime stapled to it.
>>11069436What?do you think it's hard to add hinges and joints or something?
Is that target brawl worth 160?
>>11069438For something with that design with another robot behind it? Yes.
>>11069461>bayformerslopno
>>11069462How?Waist is easyArms are already mostly thereLegs just need a pivot and hinge, you speak as if panels don't fold
>>11069270Same figure with a fanmode, no mods needed. The axe isn't required, but it adds stability.
>>11069467>How?
>>11069270Forgot theres a small mod, you have to swap the tail fins to the opposite leg and upside down, so the point to the oposite side.
>>11069471Are you actually serious?even the original white prime has knees there
>>11069438anon, you know how every time you fold a piece of paper, it gets thicker?or how a 3d object casts a 2d shadow?it's one of those things like that. In order to let an outer container flex with an inner figure, if the inner figure has a 2-part joint, then the outer thing needs a double joint. AND the middle PROBABLY needs to be a floating joint or it's just not going to work. Try it yourself, put one of your fingers behind another, then bend it. The outer finger will not stay lined up with the inner finger, their tips will diverge.>>11069469wow, i had heard it had a "slightly better" fanmode that required some slight modification, but this is significantly better>>11069473oh okay.
Saturday haulr8 it or h8 it
>>11069477Anon, have you never seen Powemaster Prime?Why do you think the base legs need to be in that position?what's to say you can't have extended hips?
>>11069479I dig it. You got lots of cool shit.
>>110694796/10.
>>11069479Why is there a penis behind Ultra Magnus
>>11069471>the little soap box so White Prime can stand on his tip toes and see over the top of the chestadorable
>>11069475Knees that meet at magnus' crotch, mind you
>>11069504And?I assume you can't picture a method to fit to that
>>11069461>bayformer slopYES
>>11069508i'm sure you can 'picture' one, but your brain is wrong. because you can't. how is the leg gonna swing forward if the inner robot's shin is in there, and it swings backward??
>>11069528>>11069484
>>11069536"extend the hips" is not a solution. or a thing.face it dude, there's only one configuration that can even KIND OF work, and that is fold him up and shove him into the torso.you can maybe, MAYBE get the upper arms inside of shoulders, and then have the forearms hang down, but now you've really limited the ways those shoulders can bend.
>>11069543You've never built anything have you
>>11067754So if he has the same name as a Dreadnok and is a Decepticon, it might be cool to give him things like chainsaw and flame torch for weapons.
>>11069548how many robot toys have you built, anonbecause i've designed something like 300, but most of them are kinda shit.
>>11069570Putting together Gunpla is not building something
>>11069574isn't that my line?
>>11069575If that's the case, if you don't know how to do this basic shit, you have no business designing anything
>>11069578if -what's- the case? that it is my line? meaning i'm accusing YOU of thinking you have built toys because you've assembled gunpla?because I never claimed to have built anything.. i said -designed-
>>11069579>you have no business designing anything
>>11069590you can't just repeat yourself with no new information, you're not making sense, mani designed things for fun. I haven't done it in a while but I do get the itch periodically. At this point, I feel like I'd have to do it in 3d to be satisfied. and I dunno from 3D yet.

>>11069713Because it looks cool?
>>11069713>a-phat-lion
>>11069713I like the potp one more
where did all the good reviewers go? i don't watch video reviews anymore
>>11069730I banned them.
>>11069730I used to watch vangelus until he revealed himself as a massively cringe lefty
>>11069730If you just want a guy to give you a rundown of the toy then baltmatrix is alright. if you want someone actually entertaining, though, I'm afraid you're shit outta luck
>>11069841man baltmatrix is still around? I watched him back in fucking 2007
>>11069850Yep, he's still going strong. Last video was 4 days ago.
>>11069722it doesn't though
>>11069713I believe it goes back to a BotCon set that repainted Prime Thundertron into Alpha Trion and they've just rolled with it. Except his name was Alpha Trizer and he turned out to be a grizzled old version of Beast Wars Cheetor - kind of a clusterfuck narratively speaking but aesthetically it works.
>>11069730I like PrimevsPrime. Mostly cause he gets stuff super early and it gives me a chance to see if it's something I want to buy well in advance.
>>11069871And Trizer was a reference to a scrapped Alpha Trion from BM Snarl. The set had a bunch of remade older exclusives.
>>11069874Oh yeah. I forgot about that. Yeah, this would be the origin then.
>>11069866I refuse to believe that people don't think Zinogre is cool
>>11069871OK but where does the horn come from?
>>11069850>in 3 years all the big toy review youtubers who came out in the boom from youtube and the 07movie will have been posting online for 20 solid yearsThat's insane to me. A record of 20 years online, very often multiple days a week. And it's spent on things like reviewing toys. This will possibly be better archived than most records inhuman history.
>lazy shitpostI know
>>11069916Is this a reference to something?
>>11069919>the zoomer FEARS non-derivative thought and contentembarrsing deshou
>>11069927Yeah. The photo itself isn't very interesting, so what is the point for it?
>>11069916No way those MCGA idiots don't win the election now, even though it came out Prime was in having inappropriate relations with mincons, not to mention pics like this that his team has been trying to bury since '07.
>>11069931>Somehow Marissa Faireborn is a career EDF woman in the early 2000s despite Flint not even being married yet in 1986. What the fuck were the story editors thinking?
>>11069919Yeah, kino picture of the year from attempt at Trump assassination. I could do it better but as I said "lazy shitpost".>>11069931>miniconsMore like hags, TFP June would fit.
>>11069916>the shooter has been identified as Detritus, a Registered AutobotSpin THAT, chuds!
>>11069983Detritus is just a hired gun. He's only loyal to his home planet of Junkion.
>>11069984What are you talking about, anon? Detritus wears an autobot symbol– you can see it on his shoulder clear as day. Nobody but an autobot would ever wear an autobot symbol, that's just common sense.
>>11069990He wears a Decepticon sigil on his cool. It is as plain as the stars in the night sky. Only a Decepticon would wear that, obviously.
>>11069994Any images of detritus wearing a decepticon insignia are fabricated by the alt-bot movement, stop spreading misinformation
alright, we get the joke
>>11070023okay then hotshot what kind of thing do you want to talk about instead?
>>11070026sorry forgot which thread this was
>>11069730I fucking hate the toy guy, he sounds like a faggot.
>>11070032My second favorite Core Class only behind Tasmania Kid.
>>11070039He's tolerable, but he's in desperate need of a new logo because the one he's got makes his channel look like it belongs to a 12 year old who posts slideshows of Bionicles fighting Transformers and calls it stop motion.
>>11070099He probably was one.
>>11070099Just an annoying Canadian mud who had a silver spoon. Ever since he talked about buyee to get the sponsor i can’t get shit anymore from mercari jp
>>11070156I'm pretty sure there are bigger channels that took that sponsorship that bear more of the responsibility for that, anon
>>11070099He needs to learn how to pose worth a shit before showing off a figure's rage, holy fuck is he bad at it
>>11070223yeah he's not great, and it's made worse by the fact you can tell he's really proud of the 'super cool shots' he sets up
>>11070224you just mad people are talking about a reviewer? you could actually contribute something else to the thread instead of bitching about it
>>11070039indian
>>11069479And the final Sunday haul
>>11070233>Those sentai toysBased.Also I wish the Titanium series were better, the designs themselves are cool.
>>11070233The Japanese version of turbo and operation overdrive megazords?
>>11070233looks gay
>>11070224you can't say that (true as it may be) while using their faggy slang
>>11070231indians sound cool though very much big time>>11070257nah turbo's megazord had a row of lights across his chest, these are some other car guys.
best titans returns figure? I have 500 to spend.
tr alpha trion the best one
>>11070348It was the second one from Turbo. The Rescue Megazord.
>>11070416ohhh that's right, they had twoactually i ditched turbo when they replaced the entire cast at once. zordon was gone, alpha was gone, I felt like there was nothing anchoring me to it anymore.
>>11070358Triggerhappy and Topspin/TwintwistHardhead and Skyshadow are pretty great tooAlso I love Snapdragon, but Apeface is rough
>>11070358Might as well go for Twin Twist and/or Misfire since you can afford them
>>11069712All I know about it is that one greentext where the guy meets a pervert on craigslist. What does funpub have to do with it?
>>11070233Rescue Megazord and Super Train? Superb taste
>>11069916>>11069983kek
>>11070224He sounds like he sucks dicks. Sorry that bothers you, faggot.
>>11070233Where did you get Breakdown?
>>11070156>can’t get shit anymore from mercari jpsorry anon that was me. i've been hauling 20+ figgers each shipment every 2-3 months latelyevery time i say 'alright no more' some rare magazine giveaway mini-con or something pops up and i cannot resist
>>11070568yeah that shit is addictive.. it's the HUNT!
I finally ordered every Fossilizer there is.I plan to customize them into undead terrorcons.
>>11070582fuck that shit, you have to add like $25 per purchase between fees, taxes and freight costsi restrain myself to only grails and shit you'd never see anywhere elsethe 10% off coupons they regularly do are also a kinda big factor as it cancels out their fee most times
>>11070586they use a lot of nylon and rubbery plastics though, hard to paint stuff
>>11069916>>11069927>>11069947Can you faggots keep politics out of toys for five seconds, or do you get spasms if you don't bring your Twitter normie hobby into other hobbies?
>>11070621Poli is more popular than TF, deal wif eet
>>11070621is only joke
God this thing is UGLY.
>>11070800>Truck mode is just a red and blue block with zero ground clearance and no stripeCringe.
>>11070808Comes with effect parts to represent what happens if this truck goes over a pebble.
>>11070811But hey, he comes with Roller! You know, the great roller! It's OK.
>>11070800That headsculpt looks weird>>11070808>>11070811The truck has ugly proportions not gonna lie. What the fuck I wanted to like this figure
>>11070800>>11070808>>11070814>opaque windowsI'm probably going to skip now because of this alone.
>>11070800>>11070808>>11070811>>11070814It is actually wild how dramatic you people are. I get not liking it. I mean hell, I'm not buying it. But the way you're describing this is as if it is the pretty girl of the class and you're basically saying she has too pointy of elbows. The figure looks fine and you're being a drama queen.
>>11070839Dude, it looks like shit and there is no reason for it to exist, let alone cost Commander pricepoint.
>>11070841Again, this is really hyperbolic and you probably cry when you find onions in your tomato sauce.
>>11070849Look at it. The truck mode doesn't even have any ground clearance for fuck's sake. It's a disaster.
>>11070851Hahaha ok dude.
>>11070839They made a better Optimus Prime for a third of the price already.
>>11070862>backpack panel visible from front and looks like absolute shit>shitty greebles everywhere in both modes>truck mode clearly looks like a robot laying downYup, it's so superior. Only thing I'll give you is the price. You'd think they'd do more with the trailer for 90 USD. I also wanna see size comparisons. WFC Prime is good for the price I guess.
>>11070862When? Siege is good but an interpretation and doesn't pose half as well as this. ER was a worse version of that which was also always more expensive, half the price of commander at the lowest.
>>11070832>That headsculpt looks weirdIt really does. They should have just taken the MP-44 CAD and shrink it, it was pretty much spot on to the cartoon other than the mouth plate looking a tad too long.
>>11070808I was going to reeee until I rewatched that opeing sequence again. His stripe disappears in truck mode. I don't know if I should get the SS86 or wait for the cel shaded version repaint like the 35th figures.https://youtu.be/CdTgrjDAFBQ
>>11070800>The body is ok,.not the greatest but okI think the big problem is how small the yellow markings on the crotchIt throw of the overall visual (looking like diaper) even if the silhouette is ok
>>11070873Most SS 86 and trilogy sculpts were good so it's strange that Optimus of all characters got a crappy headsculpt
>>11070800I think this is likely gonna be one of those figures that these pics don't do it justice. At least for people on the fence. I have a few Legacy figures that looked like shit in official pictures, but in hand I'm really enjoying. Examples of recent memory are Cybertron Hot Shot and RID Sideburn. Before that, Windblade. There's actually quite a few. But yeah, I dunno. Is he a Commander Class worthy price? I don't personally think so. And I'm not an 86 collector. Do I think he looks cool? Absolutely. I just wish they did more with the trailer to justify this price point. Maybe add paint and some other gadgets in there like a bed or something. At least they included roller and some pussy ass gimped version of the little probe robot thingy.
>>11070837The windows aren't technically opaque, they're clear plastic over a painted surface
where are these pics coming from? are these leaks or did I miss an event?
>>11070900Leak. Thought the planned reveal was SDCC.
Let's try this
>>11070800>>11070808Oh, I was wondering why you were being cranky, when I was just looking at the thumbnails and thinking it was the legends figure lol
>>11070839you're trying to reason with autistic fucks on 4chan, he can't go against his nature.
>>11070918he looks alright but I don't have much interest in the mold unless they give him a recolor and ditch the trailer
>>11070935It wouldn't look great as Nemesis Prime. Too soft looking.
>>11070811>>11070918Cool, but not close to this tripple change hot dog radness, the real robot with an american soul, made by japanese.
>>11070872>When?I think anon means new deluxe prime
>>11070872>Siege is good but an interpretation and doesn't pose half as well as this.Actually it looks like SS86 doesn't pose any better than ER. 90 degree elbows and less knee range.
>>11071005not anon but i'm pretty sure you can see the legs bending past 90 in the jumping pose, the arms at least have forwards butterfly (which we know from the leak) and hands can do a little more. The arms are also more proportional so he might actually be able to reach in front of him instead of the biceps sinking into the forearms There is one area where ER must concede, however:
>>11070800>That'll be a $90 plus tip.Shit, I still want it.
>>11070800>>11070808>>11070811>>11070814>>11070851>>11070887Boohoo nigga poor fags that complain btfo before my new robot daddy
>>11071050I meant the knees bend less than ER, sorry, my bad.
>>11071083t. dumb faggot who got tricked into buying Siege Prime, ER Prime, Premium Finish Prime, Dramatic Capture Prime, and now SS86 Prime
>>11071089Nope, I don’t own any of these primes, I’m a chad machine robo enthusiast personally :p point stands he doesn’t look that bad
>>11071089Me when I'm posting in the thread a month from now asking HOW THE HELL THIS UGLY FIGURE SELL OUT? and then proceed to kill myself after FOMO sets in.
>>11071119>HOW THE HELL THIS UGLY FIGURE SELL OUT?Answer is Sunbowfags and scalpers>FOMOI already have enough Primes and I don't have to cope about my social status by buying NEW THING
>>11070610it's best not to get the insurance if it's a trusted seller.and if you buy a lot, the shipping becomes bearable.but yes, the initial cost should be MEGA low, otherwise don't do it. when you get a 30 dollar thing for 10 bucks, it's worth it.
>>11070980i am uncomfortable with how much i want this
>>11071198Bandai has a pulse on culture unlike Takara.
>>11070800>>11070808>>11070811>>11070814>cheap looking tooner windows instead of deep blue translucent windows like MP-44>trailer barely looks like an upgrade over ER and still looks cheap>undersized headGuess I’m going to keep using Henkei Optimus + G3 trailer for another 15 years. I swear every single new G1 Optimus they’ve made since 2008 there’s SOMETHING about it that makes me skip the entire thing.
>>11071216Buy the takara ER Prime
>>11071216>Henkei OptimusYeah dude nothing makes me feel like I'm looking at a cool toy like half the alt mode sticking off its arms.
>>11070980wait this isnt a triple changerthe hotdog combines with the anomalocaris to make a brachiosaurusbecause insanity
>>11071216Siege prime is good
>>11071242better than 2/3 of the alt mode sticking off its back, hascuck.
>>11071295It's not actually and here's why.
>>11071295Mass shifting isn't real.
I know people don't like the ant mode, but I was messing with Inferno again and I still love him. Such a characterful toy. Also TM2 Megatron's flame effect is just the best accessory ever.
>>11071321yeah he's really not so bad. fix those ant legs and the ant head chest and i'd have been happy with him. even partsforming for the ant kibble would have been preferable.
>>11071295People are assuming they designed the backpack to mimic Sideswipes jetpack. I can kind of see it.
>>11070800Well, I quite like it. It’s doing something different that none of the other recent Primes have done. Sure, it’s absolutely overpriced, but in my opinion it looks just as good if not better than MP-44 because it’s not slavishly faithful.I’ve become a Prime collector in the past few years and I avoided the Earthrise mold because I had Siege and felt there wasn’t enough different/good about the update, so I feel like I’m the perfect market for this. He’ll chill with Armada, Animated, Siege, SS07, RotB, and the Deluxe Missing Link and stand out in his own way.
>>11070800A good ion blaster, fucking finally. The toy itself looks fine, but it has a similar issue to Rodimus, everything looks decent but I don't see a $90 value. Also, the head looks weird? It doesn't really look too accurate to the g1 animated prime head (they just released two toys that did so this is weird).
>>11071362>A good ion blaster,The sculpt is good, is maybe a smidge undersized looking in his hand >>11070801Actually wait >>11070852 looks fine
>>11071328Optimus always had a backpack, but it's one of those things you can cheat in animation with perspective.
Now I notice how many Optimuses omit the blue taint
>MP Rhinox arrived>look on back of the box>his gun is labeled as the "Gatling Hammer"That is a way better name than the HOLDS UP SPORK one the US fandom gave it.
>>11071419spork, you say?i was always told they were the whirling chainguns of doom or something like that
Holy fuck, what is with the newfags nowadays
>>11071419Don't forget the most important accessory, DEVICE.
>>11071419what?
>>11071569That person referenced a copypasta to a random 2000s girl, presumably because they dislike the the "of doom" part of the fan nickname. Without knowing both penguin of doom and the nickname already, it is difficult to understand.
>>11071576oh i see, that anon did a very clumsy referencejust what i'd expect of people who dislike random humor.

>>11071719Hmmm... no.
>that unpainted matrix chamberlmao even earthrise managed to do that come the fuck on hasbro
>>11072031At this point I've pretty much decided I'm not buying this unless Takara does some premium deco in darker colors.
>>11072031>All that extra space>Still has the tiny matrix
>>11072038is it at least accurate?
>>11072058no
Some decent Prime Day deals on Transformers. If you have any interest in this set now's the time to get it. Kaskade is hot garbage but Javelin's great. Toxitron is also up for $47 if anyone missed him.
>>11072068Sure, lemme just go find someone with Amazon Prime.
>>11072068They've had them cheaper
>>11067560The netflix nemesis comes with them
>>11072093How cheap?
>>11072145Think a couple of bucks but that may have been on bbts
damn they made him noticeably taller
>>11072167Yeah, that back kibble is not perfect, but the height and sculpt differences make this an easy pick over Earthrise.
>>11067084I was tempted by missing link but the hip set up loos really unpleasant
>>11072167>>11072170>Out of scale>Massive backpack>Less detail>Trailer same size relative to truck cab as ERPass.
>>11072174Was that ever really in question?
>>11072031Why is the Matrix so small? Can he even hold it?
>>11072203they keep reusing the matrix from ER prime(?) with very minor differences in sculpt, even though it's way too tiny to look good in any situation that isn't being in that specific figure's chest
>>11072188Considering the shitshow people have been throwing across two generals, yeah.
>>11069730GEI4MEI is the only tranny reviewer who isn't an insufferable prog.
Justice won this guy for 13 bucks. He cool in hand?
>>11072214That's just our local anti sunbow autist.
>>11072318*just won
>>11072318He cute
>>11072318I have 2, one opened one still in the box. It's pretty great, simple to transform, and I like his mini con and blaster variety. My son likes to play with it.

>>11072562>Wanting articulated fingers on hands that smallWhat is this, Toybiz?More seriously I wish we'd get swappable hands on more TFs. Finger hinges that small look weird and don't accomplish much.
>>11072559How can I look like that irl?
>>11072524>>11072559I like siege prime because he got me back into Transformers and he's fun to transform :)

>>11072612Late 2018 I randomly decided to take a look at what modern TF toys looked like (hadn't had any since the mid-90s, hadn't really thought about TFs in years) and it just so happened that Siege wave 1 was on shelves. My collection is now fucking enormous. Fun toy, got me really excited about Transformers again.
>>11073377fuck off normie
>>11067317Left, but only the grey plastic from right is toy accurate, not saturated colors
>>11067317I like the right more but left is on discount right now
