yeah, ive been eying an on sale motormaster (15 USD before shipping and tax) too because i thought it would look fun with the kit, but then i see dna pricing their kit like 2.5 times the price of the toy when it's not on discount and on some bizarre principle im just not going to engage with that.

My guess is Drift. We know it’s legends scale, so I don’t get the feeling it’s a live action character (especially as obscure as Nightbird). The only other carbot I could possibly think of getting a G1-ified Newage figure is Lockdown, but he would make more sense as a muscle car or Lamborghini.

Not bad but not super fond of the redesigns for the individual members.
Overall there's a lot of decent options for Devastator himself, it's the members that don't quite match the style. Which I don't try to complain about because there are a ton of options, but in all honesty none of them really nail the look I'm talking about across both the team and combined mode.
also realized I got the wrong pic in my last post. Meant to post this DW era art

Any long-term issues with devil saviour devastator?

>>11608414
Mine has been holding up fine. Take your time with mixmaster and consider sanding some of his pegs to make things fit better. Get him a stand too. Buckethead is super cool but his arm support struts are kinda thin so be careful when transforming his arms, its not an issue once he's transformed though. Longhaul,Hightower,Overload and Scrapper are all 10/10 figures. Also get an LED kit for the combined head, it adds a ton of life to the combiner.

Why did Robots in Disguise get completely overlooked in the 3P space? I want a legends style Fire Convoy, dammit. Or a 10 mode Megs.

>>11609806
Offerings of current 3P is dictated by what's considered mainstream in Mainland China. Outliers like late G1, G2, RiD2k, UT and Animated rely on 3Ps run by Hongkongers(PX, FH), Southerners that imported a lot of Hongkong media(MSS) or Western companies (MMC) which are rare these days.
>>
>>11609655
Those aren’t G2
Also they’ve done a few of the Turbomasters too, so it’s not the whole gang

China didn’t get RiD or UT so their offerings will be limited
It’s G1, BW and Bayverse, the rest you will get niche releases

Typically yeah. But the way the wheels get sandwiched between the wrists and knees in vehicle mode could easily be engineered without parts removal.

Unlike Cy-Kill, which would require some extreme black magic/cheating to avoid partsforming.

That will be 40 bucks for a fancier sword and details it doesn't need.

I know this is probably said a lot but it really does feel like there's very little excitement for 3P TF lately unless you're into MPs. After a few years of Legends domination(and not that there's less legends) it feels like things have calmed down a lot

I was buying every TransArt release. This has been a very dry year for me.
>>
>>11616160
I was in the same position, at least there's Robot Toys filling in but the remaining season 1 cast doesn't excite me as much as the Transmetals stuff. Airrazor would be cool but Season 1 Tarantulas is kinda boring and I never got into Waspinator.

I will say that RT's Scorponok surprised me with it's quality. It's a lot of fun to transform and looks great in both modes, especially with the revised robot head. However, I have my doubts that they can handle the larger bots like Depth Charge and Rampage. Also, I'm still very upset that TransArt never released the rest of the Botcon repaints like Tigatron and Cataclysm.

>>11616106
We're past Wonderfest season and TFCons are always shit. BB, RoTB and ONE were all flops in China and slowed down the usual stream of enhanced KOs. Gwunners have burned themselves out on three scales in Universe, Hasui and Toon styles. Then all the artist-type 3Ps like Bigfirebird, Iron Romance and Iceberg have been transitioning to official licensed brands or non-TF toys. Attempts to bring new legends series like Mechanical Skull, Bailan and Robot Toys are good, but very slow. My bets are that Movie Legends will win, but only a year after TF10 releases. Dont expect anything worthwhile until Q2 of next year.

>>11616106
Not me, my mid-2010s legends collection is in a weird resurgence.

First there's Yuexing, this KO company KOed Iron Factory's War Giant so hard, they went and made compatible and original versions of Defensors (two), Predaking and now Devastator.
>>
>>11616670
Jinjiang started a legends line this year imitating Blokees, but with transforming KOs from all over including IF's recent samurai stuff but with the samurai aesthetic removed, downgrading them back to that early-IF style.

Finally we have Rising Force's Menasor they completed last year. Since it was in development so long, it also fits in my simpler, janky, early legends collection.

This is the best mixed bag mess I've bought in a long time. Combine mode is 80% away from perfect, only knocked by how fucking loooong Armorhide and Rollbar make his lower legs and how despite Rotor and Movor having abdominal joints that should be used in combined mode to give the arms outward motion they are either pathetically loose or totally blocked by kibble preventing their use.

The individuals are all almost perfect too with Rollbar and Movor and Armorhide being particularly good. Rotor suffers a bit due to his legs being a bit of a mess, and as a result his knees are quite bad. Mega-octane's thighs are stubby as hell, and that is not helped at all that his torso is longer than ideal. The torso length is excusable since it gains no height when becoming Ruinations torso, and all of the combine mode chest plate and head is oragami'd tightly into his chest. The revolving gimmick of his head is cool as hell, it flips 360 through the torso coming back out with the combiner head clamshelled over it.

I'm also a little bit upset Armorhide wasn't retooled just enough that the front of the tank mode could be in the front of the leg mode instead of the back as it is in the show, even if the tank cannon would be slightly in the way.

Yes thank God. Dr Wu give me more tiny fixes.

Volcanicus is kinda a waste for my needs but its added value for others. Doesn't look like it interferes with anything either. Maybe. The choices for who gets weapons and who doesnt also seems a bit random but maybe this was one required to have his shit because of the outcry whenever hasbro only gives him one

In this particular case, that company spent a lot of time and effort on rebuilding the Scorponok mold from scratch so they're trying to get their money's worth out of it.

>In today’s domestic competition for movie-style transforming toys, this figure truly shows what good design is: smooth transformation, open structure, and a unique concept. Although there are still some parts that could be improved, these small flaws do not affect the overall quality.

This thing looks so good, it might be one of the few times I buy a DLX scale figure. Apparently it’s from Metagate’s designer, which makes sense as the I see some spiritual similarities to their Shatter figure.

At the same time, I feel like I should wait to see how Movie7’s BB turns out (since I prefer the smaller size).

The confusing thing is that I thought Movie7 was Metagate under a new name. So did the same person design two ROTB BB figures at different scales, or is Metagate working with other designers now?

I think 3P is majority supported by chinks buying whatever is trending in their networks. I suspect that bayverse will start getting more attention again once his new movie comes out. Like the good ol' days after Age of Extinction!

I hate bayverse stuff but am enamored with the engineering that gets the impossible designs in plastic form. Sure there are some that make it a shitshow to transform but the exceptional ones manage to make them insanely intuitive.

WW was chosen due to their simplicity, but even then there's a lot of subtleties that aren't adapted due to the box gimmick. The lack of forward tilt, shallow detail and thin tires on Mixmasters cab along with the missing rails on the drum remove a lot of the appeal.

I still prefer Transcraft’s BB over any competitors. It just nails the essence of that design (mainly the body shape) even if certain details might be better on other figures. And cheating transformations will never bother me as long as the end result looks good.

The proportions, back kibble, and articulation of TMT’s BB leave a lot to be desired, especially this many years/iterations later.
