New thread. Post your new figures, Christmas hauls, upcoming release details, etc.
>>11659288(Note the following came from the various two packs that Walmart had on sale for $15 a piece on Black Friday that I loaded up on; as the bulk of them were figures I never saw at regular single figure releases)Dead End has a cool robot mode but his vehicle mode is kind of shit in that the back end of his car mode doesn't tab together unfortunately. Which is crappy, as I don't have this issue with the other Stunticons
>>11659289Wildride is a cool looking Decepticon that sadly doesn't get much love but his new figure is well worth the wait. The only problem is the fact that he comes with the same guns as Dead End.
>>11659290Having resigned myself to never getting a regular Breakdown (due to him going for nearly a hundred bucks due to shitty distribution issues), I eagerly got the two-pack with G2 Breakdown; the only G2 Stunticon I have of this set. The colors are a bit garrish and it's annoying as fuck that the spoiler is detachable and the "axe" combo mode with his gun is utterly laughably ugly. And my figure's hip joints are tight as fuck. Still, at least I have him since in this day and age, I find it harder and harder to justify paying high end rape dollar prices for TF figures, especially given the shitty distribution they have and Hasbro's own garbage greed causing them to yank up the prices of the figures while decreasing the quality and shoving down peoples throats garbage no one fucking wanted or asked for (Rock Monster dogshit, Fossilizers, and the 13 Primes)
>>11659291Probably my favorite of the lot: Armada Wheeljack is a cool figure and along with the Thrilling 30 Armada Starscream, the only from the Armada figure of the modern lines I own. A shame though we don't have his fucking minicon though.
>>11659293And then we have this dud. His "spear" weapon is dogshit and he lacks all of the cool shit his RED figure had accessory-wise. When the RED figure is better than the mainline figure, you know shit is bad.
>>11659294Another mort who I got stuck with in the two pack format. Robot mode is tiny as fuck and smaller than the other minibot deluxes and has a lot of dangling parts on his legs and pointless accessories (the energy rods and rocket pack). The only redeeming thing is his vehicle mode being a moderately cute UFO craft but without a flight stand it's kind of crappy.
>>11659295Never saw Cosmos as retail as scalpers grabbed him up. Early photos didn't impress me but finally holding him in person and I find myself liking him way more than I thought I would.
>>11659296Finally we have this fucker, which was packed with one of the Stunticons. I hate the fucking decision to waste line space on the Primes, let alone the 13 Prime concept. That said, even though Solus's vehicle mode is dogshit, her robot mode is shockingly good with god level articulation. I'm tempted to go full Downshaft with her and repurpose her as Nautica from MTMTE since her robot mode is shockingly similar to Nautica's, minus the underwater fan engine kibble
Why did you pay that much money on Transformers back issues when you could just buy the fucking compendiums?
>>11659304Twenty bucks is a good price for TF #75. I've seen it go for $50-100.
>>11659296>tf-comicsMade me remember to buy Skybound comics. i never bought comics before but i love Skybound and these have amazing covers.i want to buy this issue so much
SS86 dinobot bros...not like this...https://youtu.be/Z9TwjslbrQA
>>11659513>there isn't any hype for them anymore>but they're still selling for outrageous scalper pricesWhat a retarded take. This isn't anything new, that's why being late to the party sucks but everyone should already know that. That's how collecting works, and in this case they're doing reissues and recolors so it isn't that bad.
>>11659335>i love Skybound and these have amazing coversShit taste detected.
>>11659289i remember having issues with mine at first, but there was a way to get it to fit correctly. it's been a while since i transformed it though, but make sure the heels are fully tabbed into the back of the roof. i think that was a large part of the problem on mine.
I wanna see SS86 Shockwave already>>11659513I wanna get the g2 versions to go with my piss yellow grimlock, but g2 slag and snarl don't fit with g2 swoop and sludge.
>>11659727Have they said if he'll be a new mold or not? Dunno why, the Comic Edition was perfect.
>>11659727>my piss yellow grimlockbased taste>>11659637cope and seetheSkybound made american comics look like masterpiece (unlike what they usually are)
>>11659727>I wanna get the g2 versions to go with my piss yellow grimlock, but g2 slag and snarl don't fit with g2 swoop and sludge.I really wanna see some pics of them all together and see what the colors look like.
>>11659754Grim, Swoop, and Sludge are customs, but still.
>>11659834
Unicron, my 'master'...with this I shall make you MY slave!
>>11659291Lots of people have been asking for the 13 for like twenty years and the fossilizers were cool
>>11659844Where's Cyclonus?
