Thoughts on Transformers 10? Predictions? Hopes?
>>11613916>Thoughts on Transformers 10? Can't be assed to care anymore>Predictions?Too much focus on human characters with secondary focus on Optimus and whoever has the Bumblebee role this time. Everybody else will have one sentence's worth of characterization and do nothing interesting. Lots of toys that won't sell and will clog up store shelves for years. >Hopes?That this'll be the last one.
>>11613916>>HopesCoherent editing and script. Not over stuffed with plot lines that should be allowed to breath. No world ending threat again.>>PredictionsOverly long with with very loose script that's more or less the same as it's always been. Explosions are big and the movie comes in on budget.
>>11613921>Coherent editing and script.
>>11613916I hope it bombs and the CEO that thought it was a good idea to bring back Bay because "well it worked before" gets shot.
>>11613916>PredictionsIt'll be a total reboot of live action that ignores everything before it and we get a back-to-basics "TRANSFORMERS HAVE ARRIVED ON EARTH AND ARE FIGHTING OVER A THING">HopesBig fat fembot titties in a kibble bikini bouncing in my face like devastator's balls.

i liked the first five. I wanna see michael bay handle beastformers. just ignore the shitty other one.
>>11613941A continuation to 5, where they teased Unicron and Quintessa survived.
>>11613947did she actually? or are you saying let's retcon the ending
>>11613948Rewatch the movie
>>11613949eh, someday. when i have the time to really watch and enjoy the spectacle. I did enjoy those movies.>>11613951i just, i thought 4 set up quintessa, then 5 was like "meh" and did a plot about dragons and shit. that's how I remember it, 4 had a TON of flaws, some of the WORST human parts, yet it actually built up to an intriguing plot for the first time. then 5 shat all over the story, but somehow gave us the best human parts of the entire pentalogy.
>>11613916I don't think Bay is capable of producing a hit blockbuster movie in current year, his style of film-making has become old hat after the MCU, Star Wars and other such movies ran the CGI slapfest concept to the ground. I'll be happy to be proven wrong, though.>>11613918>Too much focus on human characters with secondary focus on Optimus and whoever has the Bumblebee role this time.Lorenzo already admitted they have to focus on humans and their drama in these movies because they don't have the budget to have the big CGI characters on-screen at all times.
>>11613948>did she actually?Yep. She took on a human form and was talking about waking up Unicron in the post-credits stinger.
>>11613967huh, totally missed that. could have been cool. though obviously unicron can't actually be woken up or the series is over, so the best I could see is like, she begins to partially revive him and a bunch of his drones appear out of the ground, a la Prime. and the world experiences earthquakes and storms, but that's it.

>>11613996>predictionsit's gonna be shit>hopesThe character designs aren't complete dogshit
>>11613916Predictions?- i'd like to think some writer actually takes notes on what worked on previous movies and the very few seconds of giant robots would be midly entertaining- 60 minutes of human doing stuff- another Mcguffing plot- something happened on earth on the past, but nobody new till this movie- robots doing one or two terrible jokes>Hopes?- just make good toys about it, at this point is the only point I genuinely, but also:- stupid but higly entertaing and re-watchable- humans actively joining the fight in mech suits or whatever-at least one combiner- make every robot action scene epic- a solid ending
>>11614003if you're GONNA have humans participating, I'm super okay with mech suits. Ideally just one, suggesting it's really hard to make something like that.

Seems the rest of us scum now have the privilege of giving hasbro money for nemesis prime.Is it moving, are people bothering?
/toy/?
>Cryotek and OP 2-pack Fucking finally. Curious to see what toy Primal is made from now.
>>11614020We've already debunked that list as hokumAnything correct on there is an extremely lucky guess
>>11614021Figures, but shame about the no Cryotek.
>>11614022What's a Cryotek?
>>11613907chances of a Botanica remold?
>>11614030sick blue repaint of TM2 megatron. a classic of the old days. IIRC he actually got his pilot figure intact.
>>11613916>PredictionsBay lets his actor friends riff for an annoying amount of time while every transformer says a stupid sociopath line in the background with no one reacting. And it still looks worse than the 2007 movie.>HopesCute female autobot part of Optimus's crew that doesn't die and no Mark Wahlberg.
>>11614047>IIRC he actually got his pilot figure intact.only in the Japanese release, which is kinda weird that they bothered making a separate run like that
>>11614066makes you wonder, was it on the sprue? or did they have some left over from.. was this before or after takara merged with tomy? had to be before..
>tfw when you want Masterpiece Rattrap, but don't want to fall down the rabbit hole of collecting BW MPs
>>11614030>What's a Cryotek?He was a Cybertronian mob boss who had previously worked under Deathsaurus before breaking off and forming his own criminal empire. The Predacons who would later become Megatron, Terrorsaur, Waspinator, and Scorponok all originally worked for him, but when Cryotek planned a heist to steal the Golden Disk on a tip that it contained a message from G1 Megatron etched into it, BW Megs betrayed him and stole it for himself, hiring Dinobot as extra muscle and Tarantulas to decode the message for him instead before stealing a Transwarp-capable ship. As Megatron set off for primitive Earth, setting off the opening scene of the Beast Wars cartoon, Cryotek was arrested and dragged off to a high-security prison, which he later escaped from when Megatron came back and conquered Cybertron. The 3H comics elaborate on his fate further - Megatron initially came to him to help him remove his dragon Beast Mode, but Cryotek planned on stealing it for himself so he could use its power to conquer Cybertron instead; while he succeeded in giving himself the Beast Mode, he failed to remove it completely from Megatron (who just regenerated it, the same way he kept doing in BM), and ended up putting himself into a coma. When he woke up, Megatron had stolen his research for making a Stasis-Lock Virus and had used it to take over the planet already.Then he runs off to New Quintessa, does a bunch of evil shit, and eventually gets defeated (but not killed) by Sentinel Maximus.>>11614073>was it on the sprue?It was on the original TM2 Megatron sprues. While it was decided to remove the pilot from all of the Megatron releases and the Western release for Cryotek, the Takara release didn't bother and just left it as-is.
>>11614082>rabbit hole of collecting BW MPsThere's like 10
>>11613907bros...i love Patriot Prime channel so much...

Anons how many combiners were 100% confirmed?I mean the ones after Bruticus.
>>11614113I assume they'll do all the toon ones
>>11614113No, but their comments imply they haven't started any animal teams, so the next one could be computron or defensor.
>>11614116and by all I mean the ones in the english side
>>11614113All mentioned for now - Defensor, Armada Optimus with his pants (yes, they are combiners), Predaking, Computron. Some in frame form and some in normal form.
>>11614017I feel like a bit of a fool ordering him because of the price but at least I know he's a nice toy. The face needs a bit of paint though. Hopefully it's like the regular Armada Prime where it's just a screw on the back to take the head apart.
>>11614091>Complains about bayformers looking "ugly as sin">Posts one of the ugliest G1 designs looking more ugly than usualTooners, I swear.
>slowly loose interest in hobby>gets less and less productsAm I getting old?

>>11614148>charming vintage robot, interesting character and part of a charismatic teamWhere? None of the Constructicons had any character in G1 at all.>ugly tryhard garbage with literally nothing as a character that dies in 1 second because nobody gives a fuck about themYou didn't watch the movie.
>>11614148Thanks to Bay we had proper distribution world wide. And designs were fun.
>>11614150>None of the Constructicons had any character in G1 at all.LMAO, if it's one thing that G1 did well, it's the voice acting
>>11614153It was OK.
>>11614154please
>>11614150>Where? None of the Constructicons had any character in G1 at all.zoomoid tardLiterally everybody remembers how one constructicon hates to carry stuff around because he feels being used.The other is the smartest and a leaderthe other one likes to mix thingsfuck off zoomer>bayformer's character: UGHH...RRR.R...BZZZZZZZZZZZROOORRR.... >(dies)
>>11614156>Literally everybody remembers how one constructicon hates to carry stuff around because he feels being used.One line, anon. One line.>The other is the smartest and a leader>the other one likes to mix thingsWow, peak writing.>bayformer's character: >UGHH...RRR.R...BZZZZZZZZZZZROOORRR....>(dies)And yet they were still more memorable and interesting than the G1 guys. Mostly by virtue of actually being cool to look at rather than cardboard box men.
>>11614156>>11614157
>>11614036Yo I hadnt thought of that.... it could be done
This is brilliantAll suitcases should be graded by how many constructicons fit inside
>>11614150>None of the Constructicons had any character in G1 at all>You didn't watch
>>11613916As far as toys go we'll never have a stretch like 2006-2011 again. Studio Series is often a downgrade. As far as the film itself goes who the fuck knows? I don't think it will do 2007 numbers either, but I could easily see it outperforming the last several movies if Paramount plays it right and Bay comes at it with more spirit.
>>11613916>ThoughtsVery happy. Good to see the saviour of the franchise back in charge after EarthSpark and excessive G1 pandering ran it into the ground.>PredictionsTooners and trooners will seethe. BayGODS will be in for a good time.>HopesThe toys are good.
>>11614181>Asia Exclusive Studio Series Devastator Gift Sets>Limited to 1000 units, priced 1402 Yuan ($196.9 USD). A special “Devastator deco” trolley case with a Decepticon insignia. You can carry all SS Contructicons in their boxes with it.I take it they have to travel a lot in China? Seems like such a strange "gift set"
>>11614181>>11614200Yes, they have to. I had teacher from China and she really travels a lot. Shame that this type of suitcase sucks since airport workers throw them Bayformer Optimus style so plastic ones will crack sooner than later.
>>11614181im that guy who just bought Scraphook.i would REALLY buy this - i dont mind having 2 scraphooks and Bonecrushers (you can sell them at least)that luggage is awesome - i would use it till i die!!!
>>11614154better than Bayslop>garbled gibberish (dies two minutes later)
>>11614247>appears in one episode >Gets replaced by new toy right after
Oh I get it. They're called Tooners because they prefer robot designs with TWO legs.
>>11614140>>11614264Really pushing your made-up buzzword hard today, aren't you?
>>11614264Robots ≠ humanoid
Man I really enjoyed SSSS.Gridman. I wonder how awesome that will be if Trigger gets to create a new Transformers series.
>>11613916>Thoughts on Transformers 10?I hope they just don't.
>>11613907Transparent plastic syndrome incoming
>>11614274He's been doing it for years, I think this is his real hobby: being a fag on the internet.
>>11614274>If I pretend it's made-up it'll go away!OK tooner. Reminder: You lost.
>>11614309I grew up with Beast Wars, bro - I don't give a shit about G1. I just find your insistence on trying to create a meme to be annoying - you sound like a 12-year-old repeating that over and over.
>>11614288Something fans been wanting
>>11614312You are delusional of you think there is one tooner guy. Its a thing, its been a thing for years, and yes BW fans- fans of every show- can be tooners. Meanwhile Toy Accuracy chads reign supreme.
>>11614317>Meanwhile Toy Accuracy chads reign supreme.If that was true Hasbro would be catering to you.
>>11614317In before you reply to yourself and say that's not what tooner means and that you invented the word
>>11614319Turns out mass appeal products are rarely based
>>11614319Hasbro doesn't cater to us because Hasbro is run by tooners. There's a reason their CEO is named Chris Cocks and has been running the company into the ground lately. Hasbro is not doing well financially; hopefully Michael Baysed saves the franchise again.
>>11614181Damn, bro got two of em! I want that shit
>>11614181>take a standard lime green suitcase you can buy >slap a $5 emblem pin on it >not even any purple highlights on the caseNot to be so hard on it but for how limited it is I would have expected a bit more love put into it. As it stands you could make your own, more so with all the custom suit case shops and sites. I'm sure it'll sell at with such a low number. >>11614207They make metal style cases in the color with custom work. Mind you it's going to be a $300 investment to get that sort of case.
>>11614356I agree - they really should have added some purple highlights to it. Aside for the Decepticon logo on the front, it's literally just a generic suitcase.
>>11614262Are you talking about the cartoon Constructicons? Because you couldn't be more wrong.
>>11614319A pig which eats any slop pit before it is not in any way superior to those posessing a degree of discernment
>>11614333Right now Bay wpuld just be buying the franchise time. The franchise at the moment is being strangled by Hasbro, which in itself is being crushed under the weight of slop its been made produced under Disney license.Not to say Hasbro is innocent, but they are certainly seeing poor sales of their newest Ollie's Exclusive marvel and star wars toys.
Lmao fuck bayniggers
>$30 charged to PayPal from Hasbro>no notification a pre-order was clearing>doesn't say what it is on either the transaction or PulseIt's like a gatcha of all my impulse purchases.
Extremely fucked up the new armada nemesis prime goes for the same price of the old one
>>11614399And the same price as the MP sized 3P with the trailer
>>11614392I think it could be done very easily, and I hope hasbro tries it at least. I'd love a faithful Pretender. I'd also take.more Action Masters being redone as real Transformers.
>>11614371Season 2 is literally just combiner of the week
>>11614288Most people want new anime and with Wild King being hit sales wise I think we can get new anime.>>11614293Even worse with current clear plastic.
>>11614409Yes zoomie we know you didn't watch the series, no reason to keep telling us.
>>11614416Describe Nosecone, Fireflight, Dead End and Blade's contribution to the G1 story without mentioning their vehicle or combined form.
>>11614420Sell toy
>>11614420They have lovely personalities and contributed just like all the background characters in the movies :)
>>11614420Nosecone is calm and meticulous and if somewhat slow to reactFireflight is distracted easilyDead End is eternally morose and cynicalBlades didn't get to do much in the series.
>>11614088yeah but those ten collectively cost thousands of dollars.
>>11614085I assume Scorponok was already named that>Cryotek is responsible for Beast Machinesi didn't know that! tits. see this is why we need BM done over.>it was on the spruesso did hasbro toss those out or did they put a lil block in the mold gate?
>>11613916i guess my biggest hope is that its a good film that reignites some real passion in the brand. I feel a bit more confident in Bay now than i would've back in 2017 cause if he's actually serious and passionate about it, i think it'll be rather solid. Bay can be rather good when he actually wants to be (first Transformers, The Rock, Pain and Gain in particular are great), i want the Bayhem but less stupid but insanely cool if that makes sense. I'd love to see Ironhide return, i don't really care if its like a proper sequel to TLK or it continues from where ROTB left off or its just soft rebooted again. continuity is fucked anyways, just have fun with it. I really want some fresh new designs that would make for exciting toys. a movie so good it'll make me buy the entire cast. oh and Megatron is in it and he's not a jobber.
>>11614409only in the last dozen or so episodes that aired in 1986. season 2 is such a wild beast of a season cause the first dozen or so episodes are still writing with the '84 product line like they're late season 1 episodes, then the 85 product line is finally introduced out of nowhere without any explanation and for a majority of the season they are the focal point until we get to the Key to Vector Sigma episodes and then the combiners dominate the last few episodes before the movie. the show already had 16 episodes with season 1, so they greenlit 49 more episodes just to get to that sweet spot of 65 episodes for syndication cause back then that was the most lucrative thing and why almost every show or cartoon had that many episodes minimum if it wasn't a flop from the get go. would kill for another Transformers show with 65 or so episodes again. last show that did that was Rescue Bots Academy but no one watched that.
G1 Constructicons have fun personalities but meh designsROTF Construcitcons have zero personalities but cool designsI reject wars between the two camps as being both fake and gay, embracing them all in the name of Constructicon Supremacy
>>11614490Based and buildpilled. No more brother wars.Side note, I wish the Energon Constructicons had gotten an FP upgrade back in the day like Superion and Bruticus did.
>>11614461>Cryotek is responsible for Beast MachinesAnd Beast Wars - stealing the disk for G1 Megatron's message was his idea, BW Megs just mutinied and ran off with it before Cryotek could backstab him.>so did hasbro toss those out or did they put a lil block in the mold gate?Not sure. All I know is that the little 'pilot' was part of the original gimmick for him (it's known Tigerhawk was supposed to get one, too, and there's a possibility OpOp also would have included one) that was supposed to be a projection of their Sparks for some reason. The gimmick was dropped because Hasbro ultimately decided it would confuse kids into thinking they were actual pilots a la Diaclone and thus defeat the whole mythos of Transformers being sentient, autonomous robots, but the chairs and bubble cockpits remained as a holdover of the idea. Since the chairs were on all releases, the pilots that were supposed to sit in them had to have been part of the sprues somewhere, and were still included with the mold when Cryotek came around.
>>11614420Dead End had a funny voice.
>>11614420Dead End was a doomer before it was fashionableA total blackpilled trucelicon built a generation too early
>>11614392if that's what you're into
Anons help. I'm in Honolulu and I dunno where they keep the TFs.
>>11614633Maunakea. Magma chamber. Bring a snorkel.
>>11614649There's only Legacy TM2 Megatrons in there.
>>11614657
>>11614657Keep looking - you should be able to find some Scorponoks and Terrorsaurs, too.
>>11614657Hehe.
>>11613916Michael Bagel
Just got Alpha Trion today (plus some other figs) and one of his kneepads was stuck. After disassembling it, it turns out the little arm that moves it was put in backwards.
>>11614742>look at transformer's knees>find armsCybertronians are weird
>>11614742AoTP Alpha Trion? Surprised by how much I like that toy. And his alt mode too. It should be notthing, but it reminds me of a Jedi Starfighter
>>11614775Yessir.The altmode's definitely got a nice swooshable shape to it.
>>11614293You can already see fractures in that pic.
>>11613907finally, a transformer that will go well with my "I love rainforest pussy" t-shirt
is 86 hound on the cards for next year?
>>11614903I'd rather he be on shelves!
>what if buttmasters were female
>>11614649Man, volcano gods ask for the weirdest sacrifices nowadays, can't they just be happy with a virgin like in the past?
>>11614036Guaranteed that quintus is botanica pretool, then swap head, chest and hands and go for blue/yellow, possibly tweak any kibble into a more flower-y shape than the space needle thing.But it'll be a Walmart/pulse exclusive with either cheetor or BM Rattrap
>>11615071Can it still transform with bigger ears?
>>11615071First Monster Hunter crossover and now dlc kits with charge blade. Nice>>11615085yes
>>11615071Still can't believe they went with that dogshit head for the retail release.
>>11615096ill take a goofy head over the cringe aligned continuity one.
>>11615106>admitting you have shit tasteok
>>11615112grow thicker skin or shut up
>>11615071>>11615090>>11615096So how long until they make a proper CB for Rathalos Prime? Silverlos Prime should be releasing soon, so they'll definitely have an opportunity to rerelease the kit in another color.
>>11615071>>11615096Not as good as the Achai upgrades in my opinion, though it’s quite a bit more costly
>>11615121If they even do one, they didn't planned any set for standard Rathalos. I hope we could get more toys from that game.>>11615122Less can be more and it's sadly visible here.
Anybody have RiD 2001 Megabolt? Does he suffer from GPS or is it fine? The gold looks like its been painted on the alt mode face and arms, but the hands, robot mode head, and big gun look like gold plastic.
>>11615141It does, unfortunately.That plastic will shatter if you're not careful with it.
>>11615096You can't believe they went with the G1 head for the G1 version of a G1 character?
>>11615169Had I actually read the wiki from which I pulled this photo, I would have known this. But alas I am a dumbass.
>>11615171Dudes get so booty bothered by this that they spend the price of the figure itself just to give it a different head. Dumb!
>>11615096>dogshit head>still fits this mold better than this goofy Covenant head that people keep putting on it
Worth?
>>11615214He's an okay robot if you want ugly guys. Altmode is junk though.
>>11615214the hips on mine seem to alternate between yellow and green over time.
>>11615009So if she is a Jobber, how many times does she get beat up badly?
>>11615214Absolutely worth. Hes really cool. Plus if he yellows at all just give him a bit and it'll reverse.
>>11615214Worth is not dispensed here, fool. Only death!
>>11615214I got this for a similar price and I dont hate this figure but I simply never touch it. Hes just kind of boring to me. I love G2 so Im happy to have it, but thats about it. This board glazed him when he was new.
woo, got one more tigatron on clearance to repaint.. and there's like no visible yellowing, maybe a tiny bit on the nylon parts. this is gonna be great.i almost threw out the card, I forgot they had those.
>Turns out the Devastation Prime had hia gun in the mold, but they didn't include it for the regular release.Man, this shit is always annoying. It's not as bad as the Siege era, but still terrible.
>>11615214You know what, buy it just to observe the yellowing or greening. It's so weird, changes shade every season.
Stranger Things collab Freakwency and 8-Trax
>>11615349i think hasbro thought that people would use the cartoon accurate blaster from the deluxe g1 retro optimus
>>11615359
>>11615359Somehow less appealing than the first collab.
>>11615359is that a chicken gun
>>11615362
>>11615366It matches Steve’s rubber chicken in season 5
>>11615359>>11615362My first thought was this is an obvious pretool for Shredhead but the robot dosent match at all
>>11615359So is it new mold/tooling/whatever?
>>11615367What does this turn into and why does it look better than the SS86 birds?
>>11615374It's not a Shredhead pretool or SG Soundwave or any of the other stupid suggestions people have been making. They don't reuse collab molds like that, they're exclusive to the property they're licensed with.
>>11615371ah, neat(I haven't watched stranger things since season 1)>>11615374yep, I checked as well. Shreddy has doors on their shoulders.
>mpg Super Ginrai got an updated release with improvementsSucks for everyone who bought the first release.
>>11615381Didn't it start with guys forked from existing guys?
>>11615381>stupid The only thing stupid is another Stranger Things collab. I got the first one at a liquidator for $15
>>11615359>>11615362I'll buy the A-Team retool.
>>11615385Yeah, and those initial molds used belong to Hasbro. They can use they as they want. But they likely can't use the specific iterations used for these collabs.>>11615387They're both stupid, but the figure looks good so I'll allow it.>>11615388They'll be no A-Team retool.
>>11615396>Yeah, and those initial molds used belong to Hasbro. They can use they as they want. But they likely can't use the specific iterations used for these collabs.How do you know that is the case, and not just the new tooling specific to this license?
>>11615396>They'll be no A-Team retool.Exactly. And that's why Hasbro won't get my money.
>>11615407Hasbro owns the mold for Onslaught and Siege Sideswipe, which is what Ectotron and Gigawatt are retooled from. They can use Onslaught and Sideswipe however they want, for obvious reasons. They can't use the Ectotron and Gigawatt tooling because the new tooling made on the Onslaught and Sideswipe molds to create Ectotron and Gigawatt belong to those license owners. Oh, and same for the Kingdom Cheetor mold used for Kurama from Naturo, the TR molds used for the Street Fighters, the Universal Monsters and whatever else I may be forgetting.Then there's the brand new molds created for all the other Crossover figures like TMNT, Ghost Rider, Top Gun, Jurassic Park, Stranger Things, Naturo, ect. These are brand new molds created just for these licensing deals. It's very likely that they can't be used for anything other than the collabs, that's usually how these types of deals work. We never saw the Chevy Aveo mold reused for anything either and that was a good era for reusing molds just because they could.>>11615414If anything, it's better that the A-Team van gets its own mold.
>>11615415They reused the Volvo Optimus Prime.
>>11615121he has released actually, mine's on the way. my regular color one is here, i'll give you my impressions when I get around to it.and unless those improve the altmode, I'm not exactly excited for them
>>11615359Stranger Things again?General Lee TF, then I wake.
>>11615292That's Straxus, not Jhiaxus
>>11615427Bugger, you're right. My boomer brain is failing me.
>>11615419It was used as a Hasbro release for a Holiday Prime first, no collab deal locking it to Volvo. And VNR Prime isn't a collab either.
>>11615429https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Transformers_Collaborative#Volvo_Trucks_.C3.97_TransformersIf it isn't a collab, why is it on the collab page?
>>11615359Pinned wheels. No obvious hollows or gaps. Voyager-ish size, judging by the fists. Great alt mode and cool robot mode with what appears to be cassette storage. This thing is gonna cost $80 isn't it?
>>11615230u wot>>11615359>>11615362ah yes, the iconic WSQK van from Stranger Things.. can't tell you how many custom jobs I've seen of that, why it's up there with the dang Batmobile.
>>11615379a gun that replaces any object with the nearest chicken>inator!sorry, an inator that replaces any object with the nearest chicken.
>>11615431Why is it listed on a fan wiki page? I dunno man, why isn't it listed on the packaging of the figure?
>>11615415there's been two dinos so far and one is clearly something they fully own, the other.. I really would like if they recolored him. maybe retool to change the frill part if they're that concerned about rights, but lots of people have frilled dilophos now.
>>11615434Batmobile probably has issues over a different company having Batman rights now. Applying Beast Wars design logic to the Batmobile might have been funny though.
>>11615438Jurassic Park invented dinosaurs.
>>11615441Yes, that IS the plot! :)
>>11615131>Less can be more and it's sadly visible here.lol, ok
>>11615439I hope you understood my post and are just posting about the batmobile because that would be coolbecause that would indeed be cool
>>11615468The head is great, it really elevates the figure. I love it. The rest is just too busy though. Practically turns him into one of those overdesigned Chinese model kits.
>>11615497Gonna have to disagree there buddy, but you do you
>>11615387The new season is about to come out with all the hype. And this is only the 2nd one.
>>11615497i like those and they have their place, it's just.. yeah that is the FULLEST extnet my brain can keep track of.
>>11615497How come they don't make Transformers that look like this?
>>11615542because transformers fans have brain damage
>>11615542Have you tried holding one of them? I don't want to need to wear gloves when I want to transform one.
>>11615542because it looks like dogshit
>>11615551What do you feed a dog to make it shit white and teal?
>>11615551>me need baby rescue bots designretard
Okay, Liolaeus Prime.MAN they tied this guy down in the box. my nippers can't seem to cut these either though. Reminding me of Marahute.The irony of the beast mode is that the main thing making it not look good are the beefy chest and pauldrons that attempt to bulk out Airazor's tiny frame. They really could have folded those away somehow or partsformed them for a longer tail. The thigh armor partsforms after allThe fact that the matrix plugs into the back of the beast mode's craw, rather than the robot mode chest, amuses me.. why did they bother?pretty surprised the hip skirts don't plug in, but it's fine.The Japanese instructions are surprisingly low-IQ-proof. They carefully tell you to raise the arm before putting the weapon in the hand..Overall he's good, but not worth the price
>>11615542
>>11615614The one on the right is just silly
>>11615614lookin pretty rad
>>11615614I had this figure and it is one of the sickest looking transformers ever..unfortunately the materials suck ass and it broke in multiple places
>>11615668Which brand, there's multiple KOs
>>11615668aw mani got a 3P once that felt like it was made of fucking styrofoam, but it hasn't broken yet and I'm not pushin it.
>>11615555>The fact that the matrix plugs into the back of the beast mode's craw, rather than the robot mode chest, amuses me.. why did they bother?Because the "Matrix" is a Rathalos Ruby, a specific, rare material you carve out of a Rathalos once you kill it. Rath Rubies (and all other monster "gems") are similar in nature to an oyster pearl, and form inside the body, usually around the torso cavity rather than inside the chest. Rath Prime's is stored in roughly the correct area.
>>11615359Made for tooners like me
>>11615711>tooner
>>11615542an excess of good taste and a lack of exposure to gachaslop>>11615551They hated him because he told the truth
>>11615708oh cute. I always assumed the gems were meant to represent things like the dracontia, and were just not always visible on the model. but okay, an internal gem makes sense.just saying maybe you could have spent 10 more cents and put a chest door in too, or saved a buck and left out the matrix.
>>11615708>even in TF general, Slop Hunter zooms
it's hilarious how the wings have to be so stubby and wide so they can wrap around to be a skirt. the original skirt was like, rotated-y wing webbing, not the entire wing's width
>>11615379An 8-Track cassette
Mixmaster and Scavenger arrive tomorrow to complete Devy. What am I in for, /tfg/?
>>11615738A lot of fun
>>11615734okay, that's cute
>>11615720Try that sentence in English, please - your buzzwords are incomprehensible.
>>11615379During the Titans Return/Headmaster revival, all of the cassette bots and cons got changed into tablets and cell phones, including the birds. The bird cons were widely reviled at the time BTW
>>11615359Cos the first sold so well? Though, isn't that the same model as the A-Team van? Maybe it'll go down well with customisers.
>>11614460dude what?
>>11615734We need a line of retro stuff Transformers.I still want a Mainframe that turns into one of these bad boys.
>>11615734
>>11615367>completely new(?) bird designSurely they'll re-use it, right?
>>11615992We really need a new one of him to go with her.
>>11615670I had the original first run of the legit PE. They did a second run that supposedly fixed a lot of stuff
>>11615715t. tooner.
>>11615989the world needs Jimmie Walker, now more than ever.
>>11616027That's Squawktalk, not Garboil
>>11616051A boomer tooner no less
>>11615614That's probably one of the most infamous "breaks if you look at it too hard" 3Ps ever released
My Mega Tankor finally arrived today. Awesome toy, another one which wouldnt take too much work to update. I really love this design and deco for Tankor, but I also like the mpre show accurate design. I'm probably gonna have to grab the other Tankor as well.I've got more Beast Machines toys coming too, Scavenger and a Lot containing a BM Megatron (the dragon one) and Beast Changer/Savage Noble and 2 junkbots. Got it for a great price too seeing as the Beast changer is complete, and a complete one goes for $50 and up alone.
>>11616076why do you keep gluing your BMs to the wall, mang.
>>11615992I thought it was a retool of the Titans Return bird mold it's so awkward.
>>11616051>>11616064Guys I'm the tooner not him, and they posted another picture of the toy. He can Soundwave it up.
>>11616114Oh thats really cool
Wasn't sure about buying the Thirteen at first because I never cared much about the whole concept, but I must admit they look pretty damn cool together as a group.
>>11616123Also last month purchases.
>>11616123So Nexus Prime and Liege Maximo come out later next year with repainted Vector Prime?
>>11616125Forgot pic.>>11616126I wish they actually made a new Vector Prime mold, but I know that's just wishful thinking.
>>11616114that's one thick ass 8-track
>>11616114Pimpmobile Jazz when?
>>11616114Fuuuck I might get him now
>>11616114With the bird being so huge, I hope it also had a weapon mode.
>>11616154It does
Nemesis arived, sadly no new super mode head
>>11616114OK Hasbro, I'm listening.
Becareful with the minicons, mine have some really tight joints and feel like they can snap very easily
>>11616170Not seeing anything that confirms it. The rubber chicken has a gun mode, but the tape bird just looks like a bird.
Have you ever bought bootlegs?
>>11616212I used to buy a shit ton outside of Fiesta grocery stores as a kid, wonder if they still do that
>>11615614The neoart KO fixed the issues and comes with metallic paint.
>>11616212When I visit family in Mexico.
>>11615933until recently with these haslabs and self-transforming guys, they were the most expensive transformers ever made. and to get them NOW, especially, would require Augustus St. Cloud levels of money.

fascinating. using some clear lacquer-based paint (on account of that's the only way I could get cool gray) on this clearance Tigatron, to keep the stripe deco but make him a cool foghat-gray tiger instead.and the paint, or more likely the thinner in it that makes it suitable for airbrushing, took the stripes off of his thighs, but ONLY his thighs. Was that a totally different kind of paint in that one spot? was it a different kind of plastic it's adhering to? the thighs are among the parts that have that very unnecessary orange wash, was that done BEFORE the stripes were put down?either way, if you ever try it, be careful. and also make sure the room is ventilated. that stuff gives my tissues a tingle. I think my sense of taste is at 80%.
>>11616251yeah it's just spanish for 'flowery'but that skit was still hilarious. you know that wasn't really her, it was a guy doing a dead-on impression.
>>11615992Why would they reuse it? The size is different and it doesn't even turn into a cassette.
>>11615885Different van entirely. This one is a Ford, A-Team is General Motors.
>>11616279you know what Ford stands for, dontcha? 'Fix It Again, Tony.'
>>11616286No it doesn't. It was the guy's last name.
>>11616114ill get a few of the mold to turn into soundwave, blaster, and ironhide/ratchet
>>11616312Fix.. it.. again.. hmm
>>11615171there is no g1 prima retard
>>11615205Nope.
>>11616389there is a g1 prima retard
>>11616398>Tooners will tell you with a straight face that this looks good enough to justify a slavishly accurate plastic rendition
>>11616427Hasbro thought so, which is why the head is based on this rather than the one from the Covenant book
>>11616430Hasbro is retarded, more news at 11.
>>11615359>>11615362PleaseI want Lars Van
>>11616430I mean the other one is just Beta Ray Bill
>>11616437And that's a bad thing?
The worst thing Archer ever did was get his corporate synergistic hands on the Thirteen. Completely took away mystique about them and made them boring as fuck. Then One finished the job by making them a bunch of dead jobbers.
>>11616398The idea that this "what if Cyclonus were a Junkion" gladiator bot, built and then effortlessly killed by the Quintessons is actually the legendary Prima is one of the most retard retcons in the entire franchise.
So when are we supposed to be getting news about this year's Transformers Haslab? Have there been any leaks or hints what its gonna be yet?
>>11616497>retcon>the first time the character existsWhat did anon mean by this?
>>11616553not that guy but pretty sure the character existed before.
>>11616553The word retcon means retroactive canon. It refers to new stories making changes to the events of past stories. Saying "actually this random bot was actually THIS character all along" is an example of a retcon.
>>11616564oh yeah wasn't magneto not really magneto for a whilebut then it turned out he was
>>11616497>the legendary PrimaWould you prefer the boxman of the marvel comics then? This is the true and original design of Prima.I always found funny how hard Aligned failed. It was always laughable nonsense that nobody followed immediately after. What a great bible that subsequent projects were supposed to follow. Remember when WfC and FoC were supposed to be in the same continuity as the Prime cartoon? Never was able to take that shit seriously, and the whole Thirteen thing felt like corny fanfiction trying to make things mysterious and deep. Designs were pretty ass too, glad the toys are only partially inspired by them.
>>11616636aligned was the first sign that companies running massive entertainment companies had been lobotomized to the extent that the companies will collapse
>>11616636Dude's so square he even has the combiner limb peg head.
>>11616173Wait, were... were you expecting one for some reason?
I've never been able to find any sort of discussion or acknowledgement over it, but was BW Megs' "yes" schtick taken directly from Death's Head?
>>11616736"yes" is a common english word.
>>11616750No?
13 Primes was my dump stat. Do you think we'll get good retools out of them?
>>11616228there are decent KO's of these figures
lol what the fuck is this sloppy qc, Hasblow fucks up again
>>11616636>Would you prefer the boxman of the marvel comics then?Yes. In Marvel, Prima was created by Primus. As he should be. Slapping the Prima name on a Quintesson built worker bot that we see die, get recycled as a gladiator and then die again is incongruous with that established lore.I couldn’t care less what he looks like.>Remember when WfC and FoC were supposed to be in the same continuity as the Prime cartoon?Only the retards running the wiki think Aligned was a continuity. It was a production bible. Simply a collection of concepts for new media to pull from.
>>11616820>It was a production bibleA production bible that is now floating around in pdf format
>>11616820>>11616823>ITS NOT LORE ACCURATE NOOOOOOOO BETRAYAL incels and their little gay cartoons no one cares about
>>11616286>>11616345If Hank's truck were destroyed in a battle between the Autobots and the Decepticons, would he a accept an offer from Optimus to act as his back-up truck while Wheeljack repairs his old one?
>>11616820>is incongruous with that established lore.The lore on the G1 cartoon is different, that lore you talk about wasn't even established yet and name slaps have been a thing in this franchise since forever. Why is it so terrible that one of the first Autobots in the cartoon was named Prima too?>>11616736No. And you haven't searched hard enough.https://youtu.be/b5cT3dPKnnY?si=uDGKiIgg-KjxfaJk
Is it weird that the best thing I got from my Transformers purchases this year, was the micro trailer included with Star Convoy? I love this thing.
>>11616873What this means is that it's time for you to stop buying transformers and that you should start collecting diaclone.
>>11616636Unironically yes, not just because of that other anon's lore silliness, but because I just like the idea of Prima being such a generic boxman instead of some "holy literal white-knight" bs that Aligned made up. That and I'm just an unapolegetic comics fanboy. If they recolored and headswapped the current Prima toy to look like this guy (or the yellow+maroon version from G2), I'd snap it up immediately lawl.>>11616868He wasn't named Prima in the cartoon. He was an extra without a proper name in both the credits and dialogue.He was retconned into being an incarnation of Prima by, I don't remember, probably Ask Vector Prime bullshit.
>>11616528Its confirmed to be Transtech Optimus
>>11616931ooh that's chunky
>>11616528Haven't heard a peep. I'm honestly wondering how Omega Prime will impact it. I'll fund, but maybe the numbers won't be as high as they expect.
>>11616873felt like they could've included 2 of those.
I hate exclusives
>>11616993>"Target exclusive with limited stock on Hasbro Pulse. Preorder now!"
>>11616943they couldn't get the one to fit properly
>>11616993>>11617000I'll restock before release you big babies.
>>11617006It's weird they went with a unique connection when it didn't need one, just pegs would have been enough.
>>11616897>I just like the idea of Prima being such a generic boxman instead of some "holy literal white-knight" bs that Aligned made up.I actually agree. Being so extremely generic makes it really feel like he's the very first Transformer.>>11616897>He wasn't named Prima in the cartoonI know, that's why the "muh lore" anon calls it a retcon. But so what? Now that's just who Prima was in the G1 cartoon continuity, it changes nothing.
>>11616937We'll see how Liokaiser turns out. When are people getting those anyway?One fiasco will make backers skittish, two in a row would be a lot of broken trust
>>11617019September next year.
>>11617019Should be around summer next year, and I expect another disaster.
>>11617024Its only 7 figures with 100 parts each, what could go wrong
>>11617095Its funny how useful idiots always ignore the people that are the cause and want to harm innocents instead.

>>11616831I think he'd consider it a got-dang honorhe'd be all 'he's a veteran!' and Dale's like 'he's an aaaalien, we can't trust 'em' and Hank has to give his speech 'it doesn't matter if you're red and blue, or red and white, or yellow and black, or even purple and green. it's what's inside that counts'

>>11616398>>11616868Dogshit AVP "retcon", watch the episode, the robot isn't the first of his kind, which is retarded since every Prima is as the first TF, moreso you can't put 13 primes with the g1 toon quintesson backstory>>11616497PREACH>>11616528Haslab since 2024 are set at the start of each year (from February to march) + Evan said in a recent interview that Mark will lead the next Haslab instead of him
>>11617255>Evan said in a recent interview that Mark will lead the next Haslab instead of himWell that is bad fucking news isn't it?
>>11617255>the robot isn't the first of his kind, which is retarded since every Prima is as the first TFNot in the G1 cartoon canon, kek>moreso you can't put 13 primes with the g1 toon quintesson backstorySo what? Not every Prima needs to be part of the thirteen. The very first Prima, the one from the Marvel comics, wasn't. Stop being so autistic about the name of a robot from a toy commercial, it's not like this franchise is high art as media goes, most of it is mid to terrible.
>>11616993I exclude hates
>>11617174yeah fair. but it's tricky.
>Buy something for a great price>But it's missing parts, nothing important that impacts the figure in any way>Still hate myself for buying it incomplete I want these intrusive thoughts to go away.
>>11616553Powerful Robot was not Prima until some throwaway addition in the Allspark Almanac 30 years later identified him as such. And if he's supposed to be a tooner reference then why does he have the wrong colors?
>>11617324it is tricky to unwrap your head from. you gotta make a separation between the incompletions that matter, and the ones that don't.i wouldn't mind Tarantulas's buzzsaw being missingi'd fucking care if it was tigatron's
I'm still pissed they cancelled core class dinobot vertebreak was one of the more fun core classes and I assume her mold would be the basis for core class dinobot's toolinganyway; core class cope aside... Does anyone else think that dinobot's Cybertronian body should be a helicopter and not the motorcycle/excavator it's been previously. I mean, his cyberslash tail weapon is close enough to rotors as it is.
>>11617347They used the t30 toy as a cybertronian form in the awful uprising fan fiction. It worked well, specially because of the t30 sword.
>>11617324I feel you honestly. I bought a Studio Seroes RoTB Primal who was missing his accessories for $20 at a Flea Market. It bugged me in the long run, and I was never able to find loose replacements.What did you get? May be easier to find the missing parts on the aftermarket than wkth a modern toy.
>>11617347I would love a core clas dinobot so much. I really wish core class didnt die. I really appreciated having these small fun versions of all the characters.
>>11617347huh.. rotor. maybe. but I feel like he would have scanned a flying altmode. The raptor is the motorcycle of dinosaurs, even if he is the second largest guy in the cast.excavator doesn't suit him much at all, but that toy did rule.I would make him.. hmmm.. i feel like he'd have a cybertronian mode completely. A sleek futurecar not unlike an Arwing.
>>11617359the accessories are basically the only reason to buy that toy. and even then, the chain is NOT as cool as it looks. it's that cheapo kind where every other segment folds vertically or horizontally, meaning it can effectively only bend in the diagonal and look shitty while doing so
>>11617360I have always said that making multiple sizes of the same characters is what started killing Transformers. but I can see where you're coming from.
>>11617359Mpg Godbomber for half off, only missing the hm Jr's.
>>11617347>Does anyone else think that dinobot's Cybertronian body should be a helicopter and not the motorcycle/excavator it's been previously.I like the motorcycle as a callback to his originally planned Transmetal vehicle mode.
>>11617404oh yeah, he totally turns into a motorcycle.. just wanna hop on it and ride.naw he should be a dragster
Asia exclusive Superion boxset
>>11617416Comes with stickers too
>>11617369I mean I wouldn't know lol. I liked the figure well enough but even one sword would have helped. But I find myself always disappointed by Optimus Primal toys. Nobody seems to be do transforming from a munkey into a robot in an interesting way. Although... there is one...
>>11617347I'm still hoping they can do a Jurassic World pack of Blue and Beta using the Kingdom and Core molds respectively. Don't know if they ever will, but that's what I would do.
>>11617450yeah the movie ones basically took something with potential and made it garbage with overengineered nothingthe main exception of course is Takara's, which takes what the original toy nailed and just chose not to ruin it.
>>11613916Many explosions. Overly pretty humans with the acting skill of balsa wood that the story will focus on. Lens flares. Shitty bot designs voiced by even more pretty and famous actors instead of good, professional voice actors.
>>11617416I wonder if it would be cheaper to import this or hunt down all 5 aerialbots at this point.
>>11617476silverbolt is literally on sale on target's websiteskydive is the only issue

>>11617555is it really any worse than individual regional exclusives?
>>11617555Hasbro knows asia is the only region that gives a fuck about TFs at this point
>>11617569hasbro selling transformers to the asian market is like england selling china opium
>>11617374Absolutely worth it. Fuck those little figurines. You did good
>>11617575China works well apparently. So maybe it would be like selling Opium in Australia or something.
>>11617581I meant you're selling them back their own product you bought from them
>>11617582I dont think thats how it works
>>11617584well I said it's LIKE that. It gives me that impression. A sells goods to B, B sells those same goods back to A.
Pax Ultimatum Optimus Prime when?
>>11617556200 dollars for a decent combined mode and 5 shit individual figures? hell nah buzzsaw you're tweaking
there's a world out there where prime didnt flop and we got stuck with these fuck ugly designs for years
>>11617679that.. has potential. lil rework maybe
>>11617679>prototypical OnyxianThis sounds so faggy. "You can't trust those scorpios, girl" energy. Further proof that anything linked to the 13 Primes is megagay.
>>11617722duh idw writers are gay and troons
>>11613932>Big fat fembot titties in a kibble bikini bouncing in my face like devastator's balls.I'll do you one better.>thicc country girl fembot with a mullet and a big ass monster truck tire kibble bikini instead of the way too obvious headlamp titties
>>11614317>Meanwhile Toy Accuracy chads reign supreme.When Overgear finally drops, I don't think I'll have much interest in tooner shit anymore.
>>11614312>I grew up with Beast Wars, broAh yes the TJOmega generation
>>11617736Which tooner definition do you mean
Got it done For $10I say it is pretty good. I like it better than the regular non-sd version. The non sd kits feel redundant with how accurate the mainline toys are. Can't wait for SoundwaveThough do be careful with the sticker for the eye. The sticker is plastic so it does not contour. The width of the sticker is just a bit wider than the visor piece so if you don't trim a bit of the left and right, the sticker will be forced peeling from the visor. Trimming it will give room for the sticker to stay flat
>>11617829Optimus Kawaiime
>>11617820The usual one that applies to G1. Not sure when it started applying to other parts of the franchise. Oh, and Beast Wars is G1.
>>11617829>>11617833>moshi moshi Bumble-chan, we have to go to Earth desu desu! 0w0
>>11617759Why do people hate TJomega?
>>11617858How could people not?
>>11617858he's a greasy fag that can't form his own opinion that is doomed to troon out
>>11617858Cuz he's an ugly little incel and hosts a groomer discord server full of impressionable children.
>>11614319????? ????? ?? ?????????Is it national Fucking Idiot day where you're at? Happy holidays.
>>11617916That's just cartoon Wheelie in toy colors, if you really want a toy accurate one it should look like the G1 malformed monstrosity.
>>11617936$90 Missing Link Wheelie incoming
>>11617916Really dissapointed they're releasing a retro Wheelie. I don't know if he's popular enough to get 2 repaints, so after cartoon Wheelie, they might skip wild boy of Quintessa Wheelie.
>>11617936Cartoon Wheelie doesn't look like THAT in the face.
Surorisingly these claws make him one of my few Transformers who can actually hold the book in a non goofed up way
>>11617722There is a horoscope given later on.
BoR Clamp Down when?
>>11617759What's a TJOmega?
>>11618001Never. Doesn't even have visuals.
>>11617952Are you going to transform it?
there's talk of a Predaking reissue? Will you bite THIS TIME?
>>11618079If the Adamas Machina Predaking didn't exist, I'd consider it.
>>11618079I actually think this is some of the better combiner they put out. If Tantrum and Headstrong have the combiner's thighs store inside their torso, it will be perfect.
It's been 40 years, Hasbro and Takara nor 3rd party still haven't come up with a perfect combiner line. That consists of:- fully built-in (can form a fist and foot without extra add-on)- scramble city (able to switch combined placements)- making devastator and predaking with scramble city capabilities.
>>11618117Why would you want an enshittified Devy?
>>11618117Wildking? Not to be confused with Wild Docking.
>>11618117why is scrambling so important?
>>11618125No, wild docking needs to parts form.
>>11618124>>11618127I just want a fun line. That is not cater to cartoon or any fictional adaptation. A combiner centric line that is packed full with play values.
>>11618139Fun was costed out long ago.
>>11618140Curse the tooner, geewuner, or whatever is it.
>>11618068I do all the time, but since you asked here ya go. Honestly my favorite "cybertronian tank" design from the entire frsmchise, and I vastly prefer this (and the robot mode's) look to the way he looked in the show. I liked the show look, but this id way cooler. Hes got a hatch on the back of the turret too which opens up to let light into the light piping. The light piping is so effective for the tank mode thst opening the hatch is almost like turning on the eye-light.
>>11618142Really its simple consumer demographics. Kids aren't buying the Generations line for the most part. I mean fuck at these prices how could they?
>>11618162Yeah you're right. I think swapticons is a cost down version of their crash combiner line. They knew the appeal of combining gimmicks.
>>11617916>his elbows are at the top of his biceps >his entire arm is forearm This is the reverse of Legacy Excellion and his stubby forearms. Elbows belong in the middle of the arm
>>11618159How did you transform it when you glued it to the wall?
https://www.target.com/p/transformers-generations-war-for-cybertron-earthrise-voyager-wfc-e26-thrust/-/A-94468743#lnk=sametabWeren't there people who wanted Earthrise Thrust? Because it looks like he's back for preorder.
>>11618117That actually would work.Imagine a remake of Landcross. Checkout Landcross, that is the peak of combiner play patterns.It could be two Core sold as Deluxe. As for Devastator and Predaking, they could do something interesting like retool to construction vehicles and animals, since Landcross multiforce members all have the same design structure.
>>11618193Awesome! Landcross is able to perform the Energon Powerlinx AND Scramble City. A new fully articulated redo of it would be absolutely EPIC.
>>11618193I'm looking forward for a generation remake of Landcross. Hopefully it retains all the play patterns as the originals.
>>11618079Thankfully I got it last time. Yay for saving money.
>>11618222The Victory generation remake so far:- HasLab Victory Saber- HasLab Deathsaurus- HasLab Liokaiser- Pulse Con Legacy United Dinoking- Legacy United Galaxy Shuttle- Legends GreatshotHaven't gotten remake:- Road Caesar- Landcross
Predaking's uphttps://news.tfw2005.com/2025/11/07/transformers-power-of-the-primes-predaking-reissue-incoming-551150
>>11618171Anon I honestly do not know what you even mean
>>11616804Mine had broken window, like huge chunk of clear plastic was missing.
>>11618079Only if there is some new extra 6 bot.Maybe a new Predacon that forms a gun.
found Greatshot at the local nerd toy store. selling for $250, just had to get it
"Nostalgia Outfitters" has Legacy TM2 Megatron new in box for 20 bucks+shipping on Ebay if anybody is interested.
>>11618285>250 for GSMight as well get a 3P at that point. Damn dude
>>11618285That design still holds up today.Looks good with Star Saber.
>>11618285>selling for $250>just had to get him
>>11617858>Why do people hate TJomega?Canada.
>>11618245That legacy Galaxy Shuttle is basically just the Diaclone prototype color of Astrotrain, looks nothing like the character. A recolor of Armada Jetfire would be more convincing.
>>11618285you are the reason scalpers get away with it retard
>>11618288>>11618298he's been a grail of mine for a while now. Kinda forgot about him but then he was just there on the shelf. The other one remember wanting to get was LG-60 Overlord.Now that I got Greatshot I'm thinking of hunting down TR Sky Shadow since that's the only representation I'll ever get of Black Sahdow from the show. Can't even get a modern Blue Bachus which is sad
>>11618300But he's Floridian
LolCum back collection
>>11617276>Not in the G1 cartoon canon>So what? Not every Prima needs to be part of the thirteenNIGGA, Prima is only defined as the first TF, much like hosw Unicron is satan for the transformers or Optimus Prime is an autobotThat's how he was conceived in the marvel comic up until today & will be tomorrow, the "retcon" was idiotic back then & is more idiotic as the years goes byAlso if you're a whore to not care "becuz muh toy commercial bad", it's not my problem, stop projecting your insecurities as gospel truth
>>11616398that's literally jim sorenson fanfic. it's right in tfwiki:>The generic ancient warrior that would one day be known as Prima first appeared in 1986 as what the script designates as "Powerful Robot" in the Generation 1 cartoon episode, "Five Faces of Darkness, Part 4", created by writer Flint Dille and character designer Floro Dery as part of a walking tour of Cybertronian history via Matrix-induced vision experienced by Rodimus Prime in the cartoon's present day. Prima was a Simon Furman creation from issue #65 of the original G1 comic.
>>11617326Because these dogshit retcons take their readers for MORONS with the attitude that Vector Prime or raped Sideways are lying & frankly, those who believe in them are morons
>>11618327also Sorenson is the writer of Ask Vector Prime. pic very relatedbtw did you know aliens robots can also suffer from gender dysphoria disorder according to him?
I kind of want runamok. Who's his brother again?
>>11618333Runabout.[spoiler]I'll steal it! NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW![/spoiler]
>>11618335Ah of course he's over 100 bucks
>>11618327>that's literally jim sorenson fanficAm I the only other person who hates almost everything that came out of "Ask Vector Prime" or Jim Sorenson-style guidebooks? Here you have people whose only contributions to Transformers fiction was stuff like obscure convention/club stories that hardly anyone remembers or cares about, but despite failing to make a genuine, positive impact through traditional creative means, took it upon themselves to try to define massive swaths of supposed canon by describing non-existent stories rather than actually telling those stories, all while riding on the coattails of people far more successful than them. Any sane fandom would outright ignore every bit of this, but because the TFwiki is frothing at the mouth to create entire new pages for any tiny tidbit of lore in a collective circle-jerk of showing off to each other how well versed they are in obscure trivia, people have ended up pretending this stuff matters. And even worse, Hasbro employees now use it as references.
>>11618339Some of it was needed. But yes, alot was self-indulgent fluff.
>>11618333I need to get TFCC Over-Run to go with my TFCC Runamuck
>>11618333If you mean the reissue that went up on Pulse, take note that he's in stores too, possibly for less.Mainly WalMart and Gamestop.
>>11618247Lmao they listed it at $200 and then changed the price to $230.
>>11618247I would joke about people spending 200 bucks on this pile of shit, but there are anons who already spent 300 on liokaiser
>>11618355$230!What?! How much did it go for the first time?
Just wanna put out there that the Jinbao KO is only $100 and is ten times better than the PotP mold.
>>11618339Yeah, I'm not really a fan of them retconning everything people made 20 years earlier.Even Willis was pulling that shit with his Recordicons strips until TFCC booted his ass out. there's where you get Transgender Howlback from.
>>11618365even if it wasn't, Id still get it first because fuck $230
alright, got silver liolaeus prime. I wanted some weapon variety but the axe mode still looks stupid to me, so I just had him reverse-grip his sword. you can ALMOST kinda make the shield into something that looks like a convincing blaster, but meh>>11618168yeah those are reallllly important proportions. importions.It's okay to have 'normal length upper arm, extra long forearm' but otherwise, elbow needs to go right in the middle.
>>11618364Somewhere between 150 and 200.
>>11618332well they can also get scraplets or be cacklingly insane, so I guess we're not so different
>>11618339You're not alone, I hate these sources of glorified fanfictions that the wiki is non-stop sourcing, in return ppl take them like gospel truth since they are way too lazy to think for themselves by watching the damn shows/reading the damn comic books & just that.You put the right words on it, they ride of the success of popular segments of the franchise like leeches
230 bucks for this is insane lmfao
what's the chance of pulse canceling my $200 predaking order?
>>11618391Imminent
>>11618079Is this Hasbro saying they aren't doing a generations version of Predaking?
>>11618417No, quite the opposite, really
>>11618417No, this is hasbro getting some petty cash before they actually make one.
>>11618445They didn't do a re-release of the combiner wars devastator beforehand. Weird, wonder if this is another copyright refresh thing.
>>11618451>combiner wars devastatorHe was reissued back in 2021
For Scavenger in vehicle mode, is the cab hinge supposed to lock into the opening slot? I can't get the hinge in the slot without the cab just coming off the hinge.
>>11618453Oh fuck you're right. But that was like $50 less than this. Yeesh.
>>11618445I trying to remember what was said recently I'm recalling it as yes a new Predaking is coming but it's far enough back in the pipeline that they haven't started any design work yet
>>11618462Probably 2029 or 2030 at the least
>>11617952>>11618159I always liked his toy design over his show one - so much more menacing, and I like that his robot head was a separate thing from his vehicle one.
>>11618469How is that one? I want to get the other kinds of Tankor too, from the BM line anyways. I know there is one other Tankor, a Tank Drone, and then theres a Generations one as well. Plus of course I will have to get the McDonalds one.Hear me out people, McDonalds Tankor is a pretty fun little toy!
>>11617858>Unironic incel>Greasy rat bastard that abused and mooched off grandparents till they passed>Scammer>Total faggot>Trooning out>Obnoxiously retarded opinions>SpergThere's a lot
Finally freed my Missing Link Cordon (and his little Dianaut buddy) from my Private Warehouse, and I'm loving him - just like with ML Prime, he's got some nice heft to him and a solid transformation with all of the necessary updates. He includes some Hulk Hands to mimic his original toy look, though he can't transform with those attached (his modernized hands are small enough to flip into his arms, though), as well as some missiles and his rifle. Also has a sticker sheet, but since he comes prepainted, there's no need to really use any of them (though I did put one on his spoiler).It's funny just how much higher the quality of these ML toys is compared to all of the modern figures that have come out in recent years; I'm looking forward to getting both of my ML Arcees, who I just got an invoice for a few days ago.>>11618469>How is that one?Which one - the repaint of his Mega toy, or the repaint of the Basic one? I'm going to assume you're talking about the Basic (this version is named 'Stockade' and came with Magna Stampede). The mold is decent and is a fairly accurate representation of Tankor's show model (especially if you get the 'Tank Drone' repaint instead of the official 'Tankor' one, which I ended up getting a bit after taking that pic and whose deco is far more show accurate). Unfortunately, the mold has zero outward shoulder movement, and getting his cannon up into 'attack position/ the way its seen on the show requires lifting his entire back panel, which just looks awkward from any angle that isn't the front. It's also TINY, so you really can't pair him with any of the other characters - not even other Basics, because Tankor is supposed to tower over them.
>>11618571Ugh, forgot my image.
>>11618573
>>11618462They pretty much admitted that they still don't know how to deal with the frame for animal combiners and mentioned Predaking as an example of what they might do (make the frame another animal).
>>11618445Thats an old Takara trick, rerelease the old one right before a new one. That is not the case here. This is NuHasbro, this release means a new one isnt coming for ages.
>>11618364PotP Predaking’s original msrp was $139.99
>>11618405>paying 2025 prices for one of the worst, ugliest combiners of the modern era
>>11618327Yes, I'm aware. And? Everything the club did is canon, regardless of how much of it is bad. Losing the license doesn't cancel out anything they put out. And Hasbro themselves accepted this when they designed Prima's head after "Powerful Robot". It's canon no matter what.
>>11618576I love how it never occurs to these idiots that there's lots of workarounds that don't involve sucking G1 off.>make a couple of the members a bigger class size to fit the combiner kibble>add an extra member or two>rearrange the team
>>11618462They said they're doing a combiner a year, a new Predaking is inevitable.
>>11618449douchebaggotry of the highest caliber.
>>11618574i tried designing a transforming car once with no desire for it to have a head (so more like Dexter's exosuit) and for the cab to remain the cockpit in the torso, and.. it was less awkward than this.
>>11618621Well you are looking at one of the first ever cars thats also a robot ever put to plastic
>>11618640fair!
Fuck me I wasn't expecting a runabout and or runamuck reissue. I ain't got that in the budget on account of buyin people shit for Christmas. Hoping it'll be around next time I get paid.
>>11618653They are getting reissued? when?
>>11618339>>11618343>>11618367>>11618388I've seen eople who were into it felt he went over a line when he threw the Ask Vector Prime questions into that one Transformers Almanac artbook but did so in coded messages as if he was publicly admitting his bullshit wouldn't fly if anyone was aware.
>>11618621Well, remember - this is a 41-year-old mold with modern joints added to it. It was literally one of the first transforming car toys ever, so it's going to look awkward - your design, on the other hand, has that 40+ years of previous engineering knowledge already taken into consideration, since you know from your own childhood toys what works and what doesn't. The awkwardness is part of the charm of Missing Link, though, and I've never owned any version of this specific character until now anyway, so I think he's cool.>the cab to remain the cockpit in the torsoActually, that's kinda what's going on here - the robot head was a bit of an afterthought on the original design, since he was a Diaclone figure who had a pilot until Hasbro added him to their Transformers line. His cab is still a cockpit, and his little Dianaut friend can still sit in him without you ever having to remove him (though he faces down instead of forward). It's even possible to mistransform him in such a way that the cockpit can indeed point forward and act as a 'head' if you wanted, though it looks even more awkward than the normal transformation.
>>11618671well that's just it, it kinda didn't. I had a few transforming cars as a kid, but I mostly missed vehicle transformers. in fact the one I thought up, in its initial stage at least, was closer to the Blue Senturion's car from Power Rangers Turbo.I actually remember making some transformers designs as a kid, and they basically changed the way the mutatin' TMNT figures did. that was my only idea..>caboh yeah, so he's like Ironhide then. Well I meant his cab IS still his torso so like, yeah perfect place for a pilot to sit. i was trying to imagine how a nice plush seat car could do that.. it gets messy
>>11618685also i drew that thing in 2000, so it was only 16 years of transforming history, but yeah
>>11618605>I love how it never occurs to these idiots that there's lots of workarounds that don't involve sucking G1 off.>What is Adamas Machina Predaking
>>11618653>>11618658Runamuck got rereleased in Europe a month ago, I got one. No clue about Runabout.
>>11618685>they basically changed the way the mutatin' TMNT figures didin other words, you used the already established transformation schemes of the TMNT toys as the inspiration for your design. But the original Transformers/Diaclone toys had no predecessors to draw inspiration from the way you did - they were inventing the engineering as they went along. You understand the difference, right?
>they make a van that can use cassettesYEAH>for a stranger things crossover FUCK
>>11618728Oh yeah totally, I'm just saying, I didn't have decades of good designs to help me, I had maybe a single decade of relatively bad designs. So it's no shock mine wasn't that good, I was just surprised to see a ML looking this awkward.though as you pointed out, most of it is the head.
Will upcoming Onslaught have this additional "base" mode as G1?Look - G1 could "enlarge" his trailer mode with additional ramp for vehicles to arrive. it looks like a repair bay and has A LOT of space for vehicles
>>11618159I love how the turret looks like a flattened zaku head
Release the Monsterbots in a box set, Hasbro!I'll drop 150 us dollars for them!
>>11618820Such a missed opportunity for the new Onslaught to have ER base connectors on his trailer/frame. Considering how flat it is it would've been perfect for that.
Bros how on earth do I list a FE voyager Prime, why'd hasbro give the show such a stupid name
>>11618916how much are you gonna sell him for anon?
>>11618079I'd pay up to $100 for that set. No more.
>>11618079when the individual members look like this? fuck no
What does he turn into?
>>11618079has the same problem CW devastator has where the individual bots look like cheap upscaled KOs of dollar store figures
>>11619037A bug
>>11619037I like how their interpretation of his mouthpiece is just BW Inferno for no reason whatsoever.
>>11619072Since you're bringing up beast wars, I can't help but look at Leiges chest and think of Rampage
>>11619072The art that close-up comes from includes the other Primes all cobbled together from other characters as well. It's not necessarily indicative of what the actual toy will look like; it's a mock-up.
>>11619134Does it updated per wave? Most of them are ringers for the toys
>>11618670Yeah, that was a real crock of shit. And that's where the wiki gets a lot of their facts from saying "well, Hasbro approved it so it counts", even though he pretty much snuck it all by them
>>11618915Yeah i'm going to turn Onslaught for a GAINT MILITARY BASE ON WHEELS regardlesshope there will be a t least 2 (two) pegs - this will be enough for that because i have many weaponizers around.
>>11619110That's not flyingThat's Fallen *with style*
>>11619185AHAHHAHAHE SAID THAT PHRASE FROM THAT CARTOONLOOOOL :D
>>11618095You mean the 450 buck one?
>>11619037Cybertronian wedge
>>11619037>What does he turn into?A cancelled comic book serialization.
>>11618324>stop projecting your insecurities as gospel truthMore like you should stop projecting your autism about muh lore. They decided to call that random robot Prima. They decided to reference it in the new toy. That's all there is to it, and no matter how much it bothers you, that random robot is considered G1 cartoon Prima now. It doesn't matter jack shit that Prima was conceived as something different. The 13 Primes is also a bunch of nonsense that never existed until that point and now Alpha Trion, a character created for the cartoon, is one of them. Exact same shit in the opposite direction.Again, stop taking this shit so seriously.
>>11619260NTA but>People want a figure based on cool art>It gets ruined by mashing it with an unrelated nobody from Sunbow to appeal to tooners>This is somehow a good thing
>toonersHE SAID THE THING
>>11619037he's actually a pretender and under his monster body is the shitty IDW loki ripoff twink body
>>11619300Take your fucking meds already you absolute faggot
>>11618079no and considering the prices its going for with the tariffs fuck no, it's not even that good, honestly I fully expect Titans to get put behind the shed soon anyways they're simply just not worth the money
>We have Dreadwing at home
>>11619414
>>11619028Kek, and Divebomb is the better looking of the bunch
Finally unpacked the very last of my haul from TFCon. Yes, TorontoI don't even remember buying any of these other than Airrazor. Who can't even stand without using her wings as extra legsPoor Terrorsaur can't even muster thatBut yeah other than tjat I got a Brawn, a boxset version of TR Optimus, and few nameless micromasters
>>11619072A lot of that artwork is just a hodgepodge of other toys' parts messily slapped together. That's why Alchemist Prime has Legacy Dragstrip's legs, for example.
>>11619663Airrazor can stand if you balance her forwards enough, but it's damned tricky.
>>11619675Nah, her hips are shotI'll have to give her and Terrorsaur some of the polish
>>11619676Ah, mine isn't quite so worn and I didn't realize that yours was. Give her the Pledge treatment, Terrorsaur too if he's that bad. When the joints are tight both figures CAN pose pretty nicely, though Airrazor still needs to lean forwards if you don't want her to rest on her wingtips.
>>11619110I wanna get him, what online store carries him?
>>11613916I hope it goes full retard and tries to top the Last Knight's clusterfuck by integrating the bayverse and RotB and Joe and maybe even ONE to completely shit on all three timelines. They've tried the carefully planned out universe multiple times and its always failed so they may as well make 10 the end of the franchise and kill the IP in the most spectacular fashion possible. Predicting a loli protagonist because we were going progressively younger after Carly and I'm pretty sure the Age of Consent guy still works with Bay.
>>11619747Bumblebee (movie) is set in 80's and ROTB is set in 90's, if I remembered correctly. Bay can completely ignore those movies and continue the story set in current year.
>>1161975607 makes no sense if Prime has been to Earth before.
>>11619756I'd rather ignore everything but BB and let that be the soft-reboot of the whole ugly franchise.Fuck every single one of these movies but at least BB had Shatter and I like Shatter.
>>11619663>Who can't even stand without using her wings as extra legs>Poor Terrorsaur can't even muster thatmine is always in "sitting like russian gopnick" position. Even a reissue has terribly hilariously fucking awful legs.otherwise i love this toy
>>11619426>DRDWONG
>>11619896Just make a new Shatter who has visible breasts in robot mode for your new continuity.
Dreamt I had a Missing Link G1 Galvatron with more articulation and now I kinda want to see that.
>>11618686Ok lets see your drawing
>>11619912>cartoons, movies, comics, botconIt wasn’t enough, now were discussing our literal nighttime dreams on /toy/? Man, no toys really has done a number on your brain
>>11618820>with additional rampThe new one doesn't even have truck doors to hide the robot torso, why would it come with extra parts?
>>11619680You mean the Fallen or Wildragon Anus? The latter is still available on Amazon JP
>>11619912Wonder if they'd ever actually do a ML Galvatron. ML Megatron is off the table because he turned into a gun, and given OG Galvatron was a triple-changer that had a handgun as one of his modes, he might be off-limits as well. It's not like they can remove the third mode - the whole point of Missing Link is to remake the original toys with modern articulation - but I guess it might be possible if they left the gun mode 'unadvertised' in the instructions...
>>11620002>is he gun?>is he not gun?This is the most boring, circular topic I swear. It's purgatory. We're oroboros eating ass.
>>11619912>I kinda want to see that Thankfully anon posted a photo of the G1 figure, now imagine it with a few extra joints. Wow. Is that what it looked like in your dreams? Did he have a feminine penis?
>>11620002Galvatron would never let himself be wielded in gun-mode
>>11619909HABRO HIRE THIS MAN
>>11620038He actually did it exactly once in the comics - to hold the human wielding him hostage.
I don't have Red Alert, would you recommend Flatline as a mold? I like the colors more.
>>11620002>ML Megatron is off the table because he turned into a gunJapan doesn't care about Hasbro "laws" you dumb nigger, he'll be a gun just like in 1984. Stop spreading misinformation.
>Hasbro Laws
>>11620192Dumbass collectors (such as yourself) believe that whatever Hasbro designers say is the absolute truth and Takara Tomy designers could NEVER deviate. They consider things that "people" like Evan say as an immutable "law" that will NEVER change. In short, they are retards (you know, your kind)
>>11620180Yeah, Flatline is way more fun to play with. High chance Red Alert will show up in Ross in a year based on how he's shelf warming hard right now. Plus, you never know if hasbro will throw in a powerlinx version with a minicon as a convention exclusive like they did with Hot Shot.
>>11620208I think anon was just highlighting that it's silly to call them Hasbro's laws as if Hasbro willingly created their own shackles
>>11620209Shelf warming super hard. I can find like 6-8 pf him no matter which store I go to.
>>11620215those would be great for a elite covert decepticon squad
SUPAAATTOFAIYAH
>>11620218Oh i meant Red Alert not Flatline. Between the two Flatline looks better, having not eatched much Armada growing up I'd go with Flatline.
>>11619909I want Shatter to sph dom me so bad.
>>11620180Absolutely. Of the two I personally prefer Red Alert but Flatline is a damn good retool.
>>11620242Is there any retooling other than the head? Also stop making me want him lol. I already got too many bad guys
>>11620248Aside from the head, Flatline also includes an additional left hand.
Is the comic Blaster leak an actual thing, or was that a shitpost? I just want him with that stupid batman mask.
>>11620208(anon actually believes this)
>>11620277Fake.Evan hinted at wanting to do a Marvel Blaster way back when he revealed Straxus, plus he's an easy retool, so I expect we'll get him in Studio Series before too long.After getting SS86 I turned Kingdom Blaster into Marvel G1 and while I'm happy with how it turned out my absolute biggest want right now is an official version. It's my favourite version of my favourite character.
>>11620301I hate they busted a nut early with five comic figures and then promptly said "maybe more down the line". it's been two years since Straxus ffs. I just want the goofball that beheaded him.
>>11620301>It's my favourite version of my favourite character.Same. Marvel Blaster was essentially the main character of Marvel US when i started reading as a kid. Yeah, he was basically Autobot Wolverine, but for kid me it was nice to see an Autobot who wasn't a generic goody two shoes like in the cartoon.Also, is Marvel Soundwave still confirmed? I wonder if it'll use the Legacy / Netflix mold or the new SS86 mold. And they better give him his mouth.
>>11620394Why is that guy so small? the fuck were they testing, a shrink ray? I know the TFs are big but damn this scale is whack
>>11619185I liked it.
>>11619663>Seawatch! Nice! >No boat front Sad. >Sidetrack! Nice! >Chest piece not folded down Sad.Sick haul. Nice work.

This guy has such a neat and well engineered Transformation, just to end up looking kinda goofy no matter what. I love him though. Head sculpt is pretty cool and his light piping is surprisingly effective (seemingly a commonality amongst the Beast Machines toys I've been buying).Not sure exactly what his gimmick arm is about, I got him used so I don't know if its working right. I also the tail on his arm could fold away somehow, even if not entirely. Just a little but, or even an articulated wrist. Though perhaps in the designs mind the tail was to also become a "grabber arm". When I was a kid I often pretended my Dragon Megatron was grabbing things with his tail which was clearly supposed to be a claw. His pinky toes are also on the inside which is unusual. This is evidently so for the mold itself, not merely my toy.
>>11620700Some other oddities: He was not sold with any accessories whatsoever, yet he has a 6mm hole in his hand to weild things. In 2025 we have an overwhing amount of compatible accessories.But in 1999/2000, what would he have been made to use? Does anybody know? Was he originally intended to be packed in with something?
>>11620700>his guy has such a neat and well engineered Transformation, just to end up looking kinda goofy no matter what.He's just a simplified version of the previous TM2 Megatron toy, really. His 'third mode' where he wraps his wings around himself like a cape is supposed to mimic his appearance in BM where he straps himself into his Control Harness, though for some reason the toy makes his Harness's mask part of his actual head.>Not sure exactly what his gimmick arm is about, I got him used so I don't know if its working right.Which one? The dragon-headed arm is the same as before, so not really gimmicky. The other one was supposed to be a bare arm, and has no tail attached to it on the show - said tail was moved to his arm to help simplify his transformation scheme from the TM2 Ultra Class toy; it folds back a bit, but you're just supposed to ignore it's there.>His pinky toes are also on the inside which is unusual.They're Dew Claws; they're on the right sides of his feet, but should be a bit smaller and further back.>>11620703>Was he originally intended to be packed in with something?Nope, he came with no accessories whatsoever. The peg hole lets him hold accessories from other BM toys (Mirage's gun, Battle Unicorn's axe and flail, etc), but he had none of his own. Again, on the show he just had a normal robot arm there due to this just being TM2 Megaron with a slight cosmetic change from the previous series.
How do we end this pandemic? Is this any ways to maybe get them banned from youtube?
>>11620722Really curious why they didn't just retool TM2 megateon honestly. Change the wings so they go robe mode, and he already had a weird visor that could easy have a Facemask added to it. Surely this was cheaper than designing a whole new toy right?
>>11620725Shut up faggot. Pick one, if any, that you like and watch them. Nobodys making you watch all or any of them.
>>11620727>Really curious why they didn't just retool TM2 megateon honestly.Because TM2 Megs was an Ultra-Class toy with a firing launcher gimmick and actual third alt mode (some kind of dragster) built in, while the BM version was a Mega-class toy that had those gimmicks stripped from it. He's made with fewer moving pieces and (I believe) is a little bit smaller than his original TM2 toy as well.
>>11620700>>11620703I think this is a shit looking toy
Now you can't give your money to the one and only Jesus Christine Weston Chandler Sonichu Prime for part of her collection, certificate of authenticity included https://youtube.com/shorts/Nom7CJp50FA
>>11619426Anon what dreadwing toy is this?i love dreadwing and would buy even this oneit looks so dumb but cute
>>11620725I just watch Vangelus and ThewIf you started making content in the last 15 years I simply haven't tuned in
>>11620743Swapticons Starscream/Slipstream.
>>11620725why does it matter? most of them get like no views and you can easily ignore them by telling youtube not to recommend them, they're just autistic nerds making shitty videos on youtube
>>11620747>Vangelus and Thewaka two of the only guys with any real sense of writing scripts or using a camera properly. Check out Gavin at TRDQ though he is very much in the same wheelhouse as Thew and also keeps things short and sweet
>>11620725I hate you and your dogshit channel you ugly fucking faggot, kill yourself.
>>11620799Having something resembling a script prepared really does make all the difference That and some basic video editing
>>11620799>Thew>writing scriptsI actually preferred his older review style where he was clearly just rambling thoughts out in front of a camera then cutting the best stuff together. I didn't even care that the camera quality was shit because his reviews weren't about actually seeing/analyzing the toy, but just funny thoughts and observations. Nowadays he's too overly-scripted, and every line is some kind of pun or reference, and it comes off as forced and tiresome. But that's become his whole "brand" so he has to stick to it and play it up to keep the patrons happy.It's funny, he recently did that ROTF Wheelie review, purposefully copying the style of his own reviews from 15 years ago, and it was so much better than his current output. I wonder if he or any of his patrons realized that.
>>11620826>his reviews weren't about actually seeing/analyzing the toy,yeah it's funny how little this matters now. 15+ years ago, a video review was often your best way to get a look at a figure from all angles, but nowadays we get so many HD, in-hand photos of things before they're even released. I suppose a video review is still helpful if you want to actually see articulation/transformation in action, but Thew never really showed off either of those things to begin with.
>>11620826I'd say my problem with modern Thew, and it doesn't happen in every video, is that he can be too saccharine.The Autorollers video rubbed me wrong because of it.He reviews based mostly on vibes but that lost all trace of objectivity
>>11620837>he can be too saccharine.He's been too saccharine for a solid decade now. I suppose the difference is that he used to actually call himself out on it, whereas now it's just standard operating procedure. I was still kind of surprised that he ultimately disliked ML Bee/Cliff though, but I guess he does seem like the kind of guy who would label updated G1 molds as some kind of sacrilege out of principle.
>>11620859>he does seem like the kind of guy who would label updated G1 molds as some kind of sacrilege out of principleI don't remember if he did an actual review of missing link prime, but I remember he unboxed one he got as a gift from some viewer, and I was cringing at every comment he made because he was just pointing out how uncanny/weird/bad all the differences from the G1 mold were, and it made him seem ungrateful for what was a really expensive and thoughtful gift that most of his fans would have probably killed to get their hands on.
>>11620873>send a toy critic a toy>surprised he critiques the toyRedditors. Not even once.
>>11620859I've got no problem with him being positive about toysLord knows it can be a nice palette cleanser from this place.Just every once in a while he goes overboard>>11620873I can kind of understand where he's coming even if I don't agreeIt might be like if there was a new remaster of a movie you're very familiar with but a number of scenes were mirroredI have noticed in unscripted content he's becoming more if an old man
>>11620884
>>11620759>SwapticonsAhahahathese honeslty should have been called BLOKEES instead those chinese ones
>>11620889>It might be like if there was a new remaster of a movie you're very familiar with but a number of scenes were mirroredI think that's a fundamentally terrible way to describe ML Prime in relation to the G1 original, and doesn't even make any sense.
>>11620900>>11620900They don't seem to resemble blocks. Buildless.
>>11620889>I have noticed in unscripted content he's becoming more if an old manI stopped liking Thew the day he revealed he hates Artfire, despite being more visually interesting than Inferno, as well as coming with a targetmaster. Hard to forget that despite his seeming appreciation for all things Transformers, he's still a relentless G1 boomer.
>>11620962Inferno is the one that matches the default mental image of a fire truck.
Doesn't look like Amalgamous is as modular as it was made out to be. He's got that junkion problem where his torso is one big piece that doesn't do anything.
>my Swoop has right fist problem when it's difficult to make it come out >trying hard and hurt my fingers>afraid to use metal object to catch the fist to help to turn it >ok let's try this sword!>...>...fuckfuckfuckthese toys are expensive why the fuck i feel like i break something when transforming my Swoop? the "opening chest" transformation is always super tight and difficult - i'm always afraid to break something!
>>11621054Btw the fist still didn't come outPS:I wrapped a blanket (my t-shirt) around my fingers and forced the fist out...damn...
>>11621054I just can't see how you thought this would turn out any other way dawg
>>11621054So you thought to use the tip of the sword, but not to peg it into the secure slot in his hand to lift it up at an angle?
Do people just forget that he was also Optimus all through the UT?>>11620725I wish Gei4Mei made more reviews. He's based.
>>11621054Heat it up with a hair dryer and it will go back to normal
>>11621054>these toys are expensiveyour mistake is assuming this has any relation to actual quality. Hasbro makes toys to make a profit. Nothing else.>>11620966Oh, so?
>>11621087>Do people just forget that he was also Optimus all through the UT?C'mon man, you know it's because it's his most recognizable performance. That'd be like introducing Kaye as "The voice of Prime from Animated". Like, you're technically correct, but you know that's not why people are there.
>>11621087>Do people just forget that he was also Optimus all through the UT?Yes, because UT fucking sucks and nobody gives a shit about it, and it has no rewatch value, especialy in current year. The toys are cool, but Garry Chalk didn't voice the toys, so...That said, I unironically prefer Garry Chalk as a "heroic transformer leader". He's got way better range than Cullen and is simply a better actor, overall—honestly Cullen was largely awful for the first two seasons of G1. I don't know how the hell he gets any praise. His performance in the 86 movie is so much better that I have to assume someone forked up the money to get him acting lessons for his big screen debut. Just in time for Prime to get killed, lmao.
>>11621121Personally, I never cared for Cullen's "John Wayne". People seem to confuse his lack of range for stoicism. At the very least G1 had Wally Burr, who brought out the best in any mediocre actor.
>>11620741I bet he's got the official sonic and tails TFs in a jar, full to the brim.
Predaking is 174 over here and I'm thinking of copping, when I got back into collecting Siege had just began and I wanted this dude but at the time didn't have the money (or space), none of the 3P ones have really done it for me either, that all said I feel like a retard for considering it since there will 100% be a new ones in the next few years.
>>11621175It ain't worth it.
>>11621176dang
>>11621087He was the voice of him in the shitty dubs. He only gave a decent delivery in the western-made Armada PS2 game.The real UT Optimus's were Tooru Ookawa, Katsuyuki Konishi, and Taiten Kusunoki respectively for each part of the trilogy.
>>11621175This Predaking is fucking awful. If you love Predaking get the Adamas Machina. If you just need A Predaking wait a few years for the next one.
>>11621194Wait, they changed voice actors between Micron Legend and Superlink. They're the same guy so that's weird.
>>11621201If the character changed name between ML and SL, they had a different voice actor. Snowstorm, Irontread, and Shockfleet had the same voice actor because they got new bodies during the show.
He's not the step fatherHe's just the father that stepped up
>>11621199>a few yearsyou keep thinking that.
>Whines about reviewers who steal figures and refuses to name them>Uses their photos in his own video anywayAbsolute Onions Cuck.
>>11621054What would possess someone to use the pointy end of the sword to pry the hand out rather than pegging the sword into the hand and using it as a a lever?If you're lucky a hairdryer on the highest setting might fix the stress marks. And next time look at the instructions and pay attention to how the hand is orientated for transformation.
>>11619928I never scanned it, it's in a binder over here.. I could dig for it, but it also wasn't even finished. I just worked out the rough shape and how each part became part of the car.
>>11621312Ayyy lmao
>>11621175POTP Predaking is pretty fucking awesome, but I wouldn't pay full retail for him. IMO he was the best combiner Hasbro had put out before SS86 Devy.
>>11621351You are a stupid stupid person.
>>11620564gotta see the altmode here
>>11620722dewclawsyeah but you can see the halluces are fully anisodactyl. Here, digit TWO is short, not digit one. Basically he has two different types of hallux sculpted in, and I assume the idea was he can "Transform" by way of you ignoring one or the other.
>>11621054This is why parts separators are quite useful. in this case i would have just put something in the fist hole and rotated. a small bar or a weapon..
>>11620725Rope yourself you shilling faggotIf you're genuinely watching ANY of these mantrogs you're already hopeless
>>11621087holy shit, a livestream! that's so cool. I'm glad he's feeling up to it. I was worried he was going to join the Well of all Sparks before we'd hear his voice again.
>>11621106Kaye does bring it up in interviews though. and people are often like 'what's it like getting to play optimus AND megatron' and it's like, there's no answer to that because the question is only interesting if that's ~on the same show~ which in this case it's not.>>11621143he's got hella range. Just for some reason the director in Prime wanted him to be downright wooden. in Bayformers he fuckin kicks ass and vocalizes it perfectly. and the old john wayne is charming! a booby trap that actually catches BOOBIES.
>>11621312damn, nevermind the knees, he's got what the kids are calling 'cakes' back there.in my day, 'cheesecake' was cleavage, so whatever.

>>11621312>Hey, kid, do you want to see my hot rod?
just got the beast wars K-9 It was just randomly found on Amazon for 13 euros.holy shit this came out of nowhere. I had no idea this transformer even existed and even got a reissue (all that eu-Amazon was showing was Primal Terrorsaur and Scorponok)this thing is so coolit's much bigger than i expected (i thought it's close to legends class like Terrorsaur and i expescted it to be shit because Terrorsaur can't even stand)BUT IT'S AWESOMEit's heavy and sturdyit has gimmick-gun shooting and lots of stuffHoly shit this is one of my favorite transformers of this Autumn!Sorry for quick photo it doesnt show how awesome and posable it is.i'll do some more laterPS:Damn...what other BW-reissues i don't know about ...Amazon was NEVER showing this transformer in search. i found it just randomly in recommendations while looking at other transformer
>>11621548the packaging and price is so weird1) Terrorsaur is smaller and cheaper and flimsy and can't stand and it had a GIANT PACKAGING2) K9 is bigger bulky sturdy and cool and he has a smaller package and costs 13 euros instead 15...What... i'm not complaining though!
>>11621548he's one of my very few transformers that can actually hold his rifle like a proper rifle... impressive for a 90s toy
>>11621548>Damn...what other BW-reissues i don't know about ...Oh i see now - i guess K9 was pretty much the only one i didnt know about.I'm going to buy Retrax next. he costs around 20eur on Ebay
>>11621555>>11621549>>11621557>>11621548Join the old toy chads, yeeeesss
>>11621564>old toy chadsit honestly doesn't feel "old" at allIt has butterfly joints even and so much fun to play with and pose.It's more complex than some newer toys and just feels good in hand!
After months of deliberation, I have caved in to the idea of purchasing Star Optimus Prime aka Star Convoy.
>>11621603You should have bought it sooner when Target had all those deals, I got mine for 105
>>11621603Hes very very cool, just remember hes a toy and have fun.
>>11621453Whats it like being a schizophrenic transvestite?
>>11621453Wrong again, as always
>>11621548>>11621555You forgot to compress his torso - flip out those flaps at his waist (they're supposed to hang down the sides of his thighs like skirt armor) and push his hips up to his chest to close that gap.
>>11621642>>11621638Just ignore him.
>>11621642
>>11621453>bad photo spam anonAyy lmao. I think you meant “one of the only anons who puts absolutely any effort into their photos”. You realize you have been jealously dick riding me for like a decade at this point? I have had my camera angles, posing style, and effects part usage imitated countless times across multiple fandoms. I get mad love on tfw when I post. All with a busted ass old phone. And I stay getting new toys, despite being broke. Its only you over there constantly seething over my photos every time I post for years on end. Good god you are fucking annoying lmao
>>11621648I just dont understand what that fsggot wants. God forbid someone post photos of toys on /toy/.
>>11621648Great shot, but something is off...THE BIRDWHERE IS HIS BIRD
>>11621648You tell him, anon. Got me excited to open my Beachcomber later this week.
>>11621667Dedicated troll, switches tactics every now and then. Total and complete faggotry, ignore him.
>>11621680Hes pretty great. I found it interesting, hes kind of just an upscaled retool of the titans figure. Seaspray is much more of an original design. Im not even complaining because the TR was great. Very nice proportions. I love the shape of the new one’s legs. Really captures the G1 flow.>>11621679The bird and the gun same stuck to the paper they’re wrapped in. Also the tires already felt a bit greasy.
I was seriously losing hope the Beachcomber reissue was ever going to happen. Very happy to finally have him
>>11621453>>11621648I'm this faggot >>11621435. How do I go about making my photos suck less?
>>11621704Personally I just try to use interesting angles, some depth, and keep overall shot composition in mind. Look up the rule of 3rds.
i wish docseth81 would start using AI.
>>11621707I got indecisive on which subject to focus the camera on, so I moved Bee from the foreground and tried to get a kinda "you're surrounded" formation with the Cons. Looking at it now I can see what you mean. The angle plus I think the black on black surface hide more detail than I'd like. When I get back home tonight I'll try some different things out. Thanks anon!
>>11621707take that, ya hippie!
>>11621707Are this guy's tires rubber? They always look rubbery.
>>11621643yeah i already played with him for a while including outside lolHe's a fun figure for sure.I'm waiting for that upcoming bayformer-Barricade to make a headcanon couple - this transformer that turns into a Police Dog and that barricade being a Police Bot and they fight crimeIN A FUTURE TIMEC.O.P.S stylehttps://youtu.be/Dy4YFDSDW4w
>>11621704Natural lighting is always cool.
>>11621704The idea of the photo isn't bad, but one it needs better lighting. And two, better, more dynamic poses for the Decepticons. Except Sixshot, he's fine, like he can't be bothered with the likes of Bumblebee so he'll let the goons do all the work.
>>11621729The Wolfang version of that mold was one of my favorite Maximals when I was a kid. Shame that his mold degraded so much during his modern reissue - the pegs on his elbow joints are virtually nonexistent, so his arms fall off if he's holding his gun or shield. He's also missing some paint apps on his head - his teeth, his pupils, the insides of his ears, and so on. Just a major disappointment.
Legacy Breakdown and Titan Nemesis are being reissued
>>11621755Was Nemesis any good? Skipped her before, but it feels wrong having the Ark and not her.
>>11621755BLESSED BE! I've been wanting Nemesis for my fembot collection for a while now. I'm already prepped to print that head kit that Mavs made.
>>11621755These new prices suck.
>>11621751>so his arms fall off if he's holding his gun or shieldK9 legs keep falling off if you try to pose them by pressing too much (instead just take a leg and pose it - not press on a fit trying to change position-it will pop the leg off).Even if i put it in a plastic bag in my backpack-when i returned he was with legs separated... (and he's like that in every review)Still it's a sturdy figure otherwise.I want Wolfang too
Nemesis or Predaking?
Oh damn, Nemesis is only 209 on Pulse.
>>11621772Nemesis since they’re going to make a new less shitty Predaking in 2-3 years anyway
>>11621764Lmao I wasnt buying her at $200 now they want me to buy her at $240? What a joke
>>11621764At least Devcon is still cheap...haha
What are the chances of reissued items going on sale?
>>11621777>new less shitty Predaking in 2-3 years anywayOh anon. Never lose that hope.
Shit, does Breakdown mean the rest of the Stunticons are getting reissued? I've only really gotten into collecting TF over the last year and would love to get Menasor at non-rape prices.
Anons! serious question - what should i buy?1) The Movie Studio Series 86 Constructicon Hook & Long Haul2) Studio Series - Dinobot GrimlockI can buy only ONE thing and then December will be busy for me and i wont be able to buy transformers up to January...The Devastator part will be bought from Ebay and it's the last lot with optimal price.And im afraid there will be no Grimlocks for around 50-60euros/dollars and i will have to pay scalper prices.Damn it's a tricky situation.What should i get? i NEED both!
>>11621764They'll only get worse—it's just how the economy is designed. I'd like to predict that Hasbro will eventually have to collapse, but who fuckin' knows at this point? Everything feels like a circus.>>11621801>I've only really gotten into collecting TF over the last yearMy condolences.
>>11621755Based, thanks for the tip anon. My Menasor will finally be complete.
>>11621804Do you have the other Constructicons? That said, theres a reissue of Grimlock on shelves right now. In two different colors.
>>11621807Yeah the devastator is in progress.Yep - im talking about reissue grimlock. the last chance to get him for ~60. Outside of amazon he's going for ~100
>>11621809Check some stores, they might have Grimlock on sale. Especially now that its the holidays.
>>11621804Which country are you in? Somewhere in Europe? Do you already have the other Constructicons? Do you mean 86 Grimlock?
>>11621812>>11621804Decided to go with constructicons.Grimlocks are still available and at least there is that blue option.Constructicons situation in my country is CRAZY.picrelated is the last "cheap" option and then it[s up to 200euros.At least i'm less stressful - the main part of Devastator is finally mine.I'll put it under Christmas Tree and pretend to be super happy haha!
>>11621815I went with Devastator parts.at least there is still blue Grimlock for cheaper if the "main one" won't be available.But if i will miss devastator torso-it will be a GAME OVER
>>11621804Why are the colors so ugly and washed out on Devastator? Like, holy shit. I remember seeing early test shots and complaining, and some anon told me they were definitely going to "pump up the green" before the final release, but obviously that never happened.
>>11621788Same
>>11621818>>11621818>Why are the colors so ugly and washed out on Devastator? Like, holy shit. I remember seeing early test shots and complaining, and some anon told me they were definitely going to "pump up the green" before the final release, but obviously that never happened.
>>11621804I have Grimlock (the blue one), honestly get that. It’s pretty much perfect.
>>1162181886 Constructicons can definitely look a lot better (or a lot worse) depending what lighting you have them in. I've taken pics of them/him on sunny and cloudy days and it's a big difference.
>>11621833yeah it's pretty different depending on lightningFor example this google search one is super colorful.If they would make him colorful from the very beginning he would look way too saturatedI like him as current "calm" colors86 devastator can look good with any mood.It's a shame i didnt finish him before winteri wanted to see how 86 Dev. looks in autumn colors next to fallen leaves or something like that
>>11621818You misunderstood. "Pump up the green" means they pumped up the amount of money (green) he was going to cost.
>reissue of SS32 OptimusIsn't that the one they later sold with the DotM trailer that turns into wings?
>>11621402>he's got hella range.I've never heard it. In the first two seasons of G1, he's actually just plain bad. I think people mistake his awkward deliveries in an attempt at John Wayne to be "range", but he's arguably one of the worst VAs out of the principal cast. It's pretty clear they only hired him for the tone of his voice, and not his acting ability. He was better in the 86 movie, but I wouldn't say he had any "range" there, either—pretty much every line is the same stoic/wooden deliveries he gave in the Bayverse and Prime. Cullen is just a one-trick pony. But hey, he made a legacy out of it, good for him.>>11621143>At the very least G1 had Wally BurrYeah, Wally Burr was just a caliber of voice actor that does not exist anymore. I liked Michael Bell (Prowl, Sideswipe, etc) as well, but he actually got better with age; in the Devastation video game from 2015, his performance was head-and-shoulders above the rest of the cast—a rare case of an actor somehow having MORE attitude as an old man.I ended up playing as Sideswipe most of the time because of it, lol. All of his snarky remarks were perfect as I was trashing endless waves of Decepti-creeps. Fuck, I can't believe that was 10 years ago already.

>>11621548ahh I always liked that guy. Back then the shield didn't bug me, the weird krelbows didn't bother me, the way his missiles slot right into him, the way his dog head halves are conspicuously hollow so they look kinda dumb... his proportions (you didn't completely close his abs btw, that's to give him a longer dog torso), once you are enough of a kid to not mind those, he's amazing
>>11621549yeah that's how it goes, you'd expect everything to even itself out by value and whatnot, but really it's up to people, and people are lazy
>>11621998I can't figure out if this is trolling, or if you're such a weird snob that you don't realize how pathetic you sound while trying to give what appears to be a "positive review."this is 4chan and a tf-threadyou might be just both
>>11621988The ride never ends
>>11622004Dude it's a toy from the 90s. Of course it's coming from a place of 'we can do better now' and it'd be disingenuous of me to just pour my teenage adoration of this figure all over it, giving it a sloppy blowjob of a review. I fuckin loved it, and now, even though I see its flaws, it's still a great toy and I can see why I loved it back then.
>>11621988>>11622105>proceeds with schizo babble accusations while contributing nothing and is actually samefagNow prove youre not samefagging
>>11614274>>11614317there's one guy who pretends nobody uses the word "tooner" except one guy trying to do an anti-sunbow psyop despite it spanning across nearly every TF community.
Sure bud
>>11622116>"Prove you're not samefagging" as he proceeds to prove he's 4/7 postsJust get banned already
>>11621988Lel one sided rivalry
You anons ever get so drunk that you can't transform your transformers?
>>11622165Yep the 4 pics that are obviously me, and none of the comments. Meanwhile, you just proved to us all that you samefag aka shit up this thread
>11622203"Ha ha you proved you samefag">Still no actual proofYou people entertain this sperg retard too much. Stop letting him shit up your threads constantly
Get a new hobby
>>11622205You proved it by not proving it you sperg. Half this thread is probably you talking to yourself
just opened a siege soundwave in my storage and holy hell why does this guy not transform into a casette player? it doesnt even come with a single casette too
>>11622288It's a known issue that happens to copies if you leave them in storage for too long
>>11622288well at least those two problems do synergize
Whatever drama wars going on, don’t care, just know you can pick up terrorsaurs for cheap at your local ollies, or how I wish Gigastorm would get a new interpretation that is a full mix of ultra kaiju/tank/dinosaur vs trypticon being just super rex/city/spaceship
>>11622299I too have never been happy with trypticon's altmodes, though there was a 3p one where he turns into the Nemesis, right?
>>11622309That one was based off Fall of Cybertron’s version, still never a version of Gigastorm that I would want, or a 3P Browning period. Yeah I’m still alive
>>11621365You mean Final Evolution Sun King Bomber Lio? Forget it man, he never transforms; he might nuke half the solar system by accident.
>>11622200No, but sometimes I get so stoned that it takes me way longer than it should with some of the more complex transformations.
>>11622352Imagine it: like a planet-killer R-type space fighter with a rich, flowing mane in the vacuum of space...
>>11622414Also I saw this little guy in my mind while I was messing around, and now you will too
>>11622410>>11622200Those have both happened to me recently.
For those of you who are at loggerheads at the idea of another fragile Star Saber included with the AOTP Nemesis Prime, forget about that Star Saber and have a reminder that an opaque Star Saber did exist, and it's the rarest fucking thing in existence, being available as part of Kabaya's candy toy Change Micron line. Other combining Mini-Con teams, namely Roadstorm, the Skyboom Shield, and the Requiem Blaster, were also made as candy toys, but those three are relatively unchanged compared to the candy toy Star Saber, who, again, replaced all the clear plastics for more sturdy opaque plastics, at least for Kabaya candy toy standards. If anyone even found the candy toy Star Saber, assemble it and display it with your Cheapo Plastic Era Armada figures (like Optimus Prime and Burning Galvatron).
>>11622438Or just buy the Fanshobby Nemesis and get a trailer and a durable sword.
>>11622448The candy toy Star Saber I mentioned is a durable sword.
>>11622457>>11622438Note that the candy version uses the same loose connection at the hilt. Though you can do the more stable fanmode by plugging Jetstorm's legs into Sonar's two minicon ports.
They only fixed the peg later with the Vorpal Saber version, making it longer and tighter.
>>11622513>>11622514Hmm... Following said guidelines, adding one pla-plate on the candy toy version could help wonders, especially since it's opaque and Jetstorm doesn't self-destruct like his clear mold-shares and heaven forbid the AOTP Nemesis Prime.
>>11622519FWIW, I have the clear Star and Energon Sabers for like 20 years now and there's no breakage or stress marks yet. They were still using Polycarbonate back then instead of MABS.
>>11622352>when you stack all three kinds of powerup capsules
Did anyone have to pop in Onyx primes arms out of box besides me?
>>11622725Nope, but I've heard others having this problem. Was it like that out of the box, did you position the arm properly before using the bicep joint? You need 5o straighten out the arm before twisting the bicep.
>>11622745The arms just weren't popd in all the way in the mushroom peg. They fell when i went to pose him.
>>11622855That's annoying, but I expect worse QC from Hasbro nowadays
>>11622288Bro?????
>>11620564>>11622352I've had my two like this almost the entire time I've owned em lol

Is the general dead? The last post what 11 hours ago, and before that one, the previous post had gone 20 hours without activity. I don't think I've seen this place so empty in years...
>>11625271Maybe you should make a new thread and not check the catalog. Be a real hero anon.
>>11625281Why make a new thread when nobody's posting? My point was that the place has become a graveyard, not that we were at bump limit.
>>11625271i assume someone has already made an extra thread that everyone moved to even though it wasn't linked in herethat's happened five fucking times.
>>11625500*six
>>11625555>>11625500Heck, what if the next thread isn't even LABELED as /tfg/, which is why I came in here blind. I wanna see people talk about the 2026 AOTP figures now, especially because Amalgamous Prime came in early in America.
>>11625571>knows we have a resident schizo and psychopath who insists on making things worse for everyone because he wants the validation that definitely comes with making new threads (it doesn't)It's time to gogogo to his next shitty-ass faggot thread, anon
>>11625585
oh wow he DID make his own thread>>11622002fun now we get to have two. FUCK.
>>11625635and another here >>11625678ima just hang out in that one, hope I don't miss anything
>>11625635>>11625769It's from the same anon, too, and he still doesn't know how to add the freaking thread name. It's frustrating!
>>11622299Do you have the alt mode for this thing it looks sick?
>>11625802>>11625769>>11625635I sure wish this board had a fucking mod to clean this shit up
>>11625802>he still doesn't knowHe knows full well what he's doing. He's the same guy who keeps intentionally leaving out the pastebins and the Page 9 or 10 disclaimer.
