Managed to get the cable into his back port by boiling the end for a bit but sweet fuck I cannot get it into his forearm.

Anybody knows if this is legit? They're asking $135 CAD for him.

And for those anons last thread that said BBTS doesn't ship out for at least two days, you're right.

>>5994018

Yeah, I use BBTS a lot. Everything I've ordered always takes 2 days to ship, and they don't ship on weekends usually either.

>>5994021
Is this a new thing? Cause previously I'd order an item and it shipped next day. But admittedly I haven't ordered anything from them in probably a year.

>>5994029

Not that I know of. Been ordering for a while now, always takes them about two days to get stuff out.

>>5994018
Yep, I hit ship on tuesday and it went out friday. It wasn't even like it was a huge order or anything either, just carnifex and something else that came out that week.

>>5993916
My scrapper has a weird squeaky knee, articulation all around isn't very good. The transformation is also extremely simple and feels more like a chug voyager than a masterpiece.

Fingers were also loose as shit, gun peg was way too big so it had to be sanded down to fit in the vehicle peg. The thigh joins are loose too and can't bear his weight, so no dynamic poses. The chest crest looks like it could be mounted as a shield, but it doesn't hold well at all.

For 100$, I expected a much better quality, and I know the later figures needed repairs too. Not worth it for the size and working treads.

Saw TFSource only had 1 left so I impulse bought him. I already have the regular Vulcan but it was such a fucking amazing toy and Hephaestus was just the right level of over-the-top and tacky with his deep red, sexy silver, garish gold, and that nuclear green that I couldn't resist him. I'm super excited.

Anybody else have him? Anything I should expect as far as improvements or detriments over the original figure or is he a carbon copy with a new coat of paint?

Also, does anybody know what the story behind this guy is? I know Takara released FoC Grimlock in these colors so Planet X is just following suit but is there any sort of lore related reason for his existence?

>>5994265

Homage to Takara Transformers Superlink (Energon) Dinobot Magma Type.

Oh neat. As a bonus, I can slap a Con insignia reprolabel on him and count him as another character.

UNH THICKER

>>5995145
That happened to one of the fold-out handles on my Cynicus. I repaired it by taking out the screw. gluing the sheared-off ring onto the stub, and rescrewing, but it's pretty far from being a load-bearing piece like a foot on a big guy like Carnifex.

Sucks, man. Now I'm nervous.

>>5995145
>>5995583
It looks like the screws didn't get screwed in far enough or they were too short to get good traction all the way through both pieces?

>>5995583

I'd say worry only if you start hearing about it happening more than once.

>>5995694
Shitty MSPaint diagram incoming.

The screws are technically long enough for the hole, IF the column was more structurally stable. Since it isn't, a bit shears off and gets stuck inside the hole of the piece that's screwed on, and the exposed part of the screw is now too short and tapered to get a decent grip on the other part.

Also it's super hard to take that shitty bit out of the hole, because it's screwed in but not fastened to the outer hole, and when you turn the screw the shitty bit turns too. You need to stick a pair of pliers in there and pin the bit down while you unscrew the screw. I needed an extra pair of hands to do it.

I avoid moving the handle on my Cynicus, anon is probably gonna have to get his Carnifex foot replaced. I wouldn't even bother trying the fix, that's too much weight on those pegs for them to hold.

Is MMC using screws that are too fat? Should they make those plastic columns thicker? I don't know what factor is causing the shear to happen but they need to fix it.

>>5994327
Oh I'm interested then. I really want a decent MP God Ginrai since the Xovereign was shit and Takara will make an official probably after I died of old age in 100 years.

>>5995746
Man what a ridiculous problem but that's a great diagram, thanks.
Now I'm paranoid about my Carnifex though, I wonder if I were to reinforce the column really well with epoxy resin would that help protect it,

>>5995822

Hopefully it's just an isolated incident of a screw not being in too far and not something thats going to happen again.

Worried about mine as well now though.

>>5995746
>>5995840
I wonder if just replacing the screws with longer ones before anything happens would prevent this.

>>5995843

Well, so far it's one guy with a problem. But if anyone else sees any other posts anywhere else about this sort of problem, please let us know here bros.

>>5994660
He is, but he also is not very similar to the old mindwipe, so you could say mindwipe is like a follower of him, or something.

>I'm impressed they even managed that level of quality. He's better than MP Star Saber.

I'm not too surprised, I think MP Star Saber was made to restrict itself onto a strict budget. I think the limit for MP releases has been drawn at MP-10's MSRP of 22000 yen or so. Ultra Magnus and Star saber, despite being much bigger, cost less at around 18000 MSRP. Optimus has the giant trailer, sure, but it's not that complex. We know MP Ultra Magnus' budget was reigned in since Shogo Hasui had issues designing it with the budget he was given.

I think any of the MP options on the fan poll where going to be limited to a certain budget, hence why Star Saber feels kinda cheap. Its a good thing Fort Max didn't win, because we'd have probably gotten a Fort Max that was Ultra Magnus sized.

>>5996174
Grinder, Sovereign and Lupus all look pretty much final. Why are the release dates still so far away?

>>5996213
Ultra Magnus at least feels decently complicated in hand.

I love how his cab folds up and how all the wheels tuck away, completely hiding the alt mode.

Also, the fact that the trailer can come off in vehicle mode is amazing.

>>5996230

>FT
>Getting things done quickly

I'm almost convinced they're actually a front for Takara or something with how slow their release schedule is. They shit out three toys a year max.

>>5996234

I don't know what happened with SS but he really does feel like junk. Magnus was no where near that level of mediocrity.

>>5994206
Fuck man that's so close to being good. The legs and feet are excellent but the shoulders are way too high and I'm not too fond of the chest and wheels sticking out. It looks like Hi-Q is just hanging on the front of him a opposed to pressed into his chest

>I don't know what happened with SS but he really does feel like junk. Magnus was no where near that level of mediocrity.

Because from all the interviews apparently they made SS to be played with and not just transformed once and then displayed. So they chose to make it with molded plastic than paint so people won't be afraid to play with theirs on the account of the toy accidentally getting paint chips and shit.

Then again it could be all BS cause of MSRP restrictions even though Takara doesn't really have one from what I know.

How long does it usually take MMC to respond to messages sent from their product support page? Sent a message asking for some replacement Carnifex parts almost a week ago and haven't heard anything.

>>5996213

I LOVE my star saber, but my only qualms with him is the limited ankle bends. And one other thing - the lack of a proper way to hold his sword. KFC hands fixed this, but the clip to hold it was garbage so I had to buy a shapeways clip.

>>5998448
Its just the normal process. There might be some tolerances or QC issues that need to be tweaked or something. Like hound they changed the mirrors to rubber because of breakage.

Does TFSource or any other reliable third party retailer have good black friday sales? I'd like to pick up some GT constructicons but was hoping there might be some kind of sale if I wait.

>>5998613
Eh, it might be too soon for something like that to be marked down.

>>5998613

I bet someone has them on sale on black friday.

>>5998613
Tfsource has sales like they're Steam or some shit, they'll no doubt have something for Black Friday.

>>5998613

The best black friday deals have been at TFsource for the last few years actually. I've dropped them as a retailer because of how slow their shit with the exception of Black Friday. If you can wade through all the shit they throw at you BBTS had decent sales too.

Some autists at tfw were predicting Christmas time.

Just got feral Rex in the mail. What am I in for?

>>5999193
A good time. Sore hands. Looking up how to transform some parts of him 'cause the instructions aren't the best.

Some things I didn't know from the instructions:

Leo Dux's back cannons can detach so they can be put on his forearms.

It seems like the individual predacons can't hold the weapons - they totally can. It's just a tight fit. At least the guns, I haven't been able to get any of them beyond Leo Dux to comfortably hold their melee weapons, so it's just pegging them into forearms.

When in gestalt form, you'll need to extend Rex's thighs to get the butt-plate fully secured, then you can re-shorten them.

>>5999075
>Murder boner

A perfect description of IDW Overlord.

>>5999205
>I haven't been able to get any of them beyond Leo Dux to comfortably hold their melee weapons, so it's just pegging them into forearms.

Did you get a KO? All of mine have no problems with the weapons.

>>5999231
No, MMC. I'm saying the guns slide into their hands tight, but most of the melee weapons don't seem to enjoy the same snugness. I can fit all the weapons into any of their hands, but I don't like them hanging in there loosely. Would prefer them snugly mounted somewhere, whether hand or peg.

Maybe I'm just not pushing it hard enough though, super worried to try some times.

Is the smaller head out?

>>5999830
I kinda wanted one of these until I saw that he's locking all of the other characters behind the highest reward tier AND making them KS exclusive. What if I'd rather have one of the other characters but don't want to pay out the ass to get all the ones I don't want with it? What if I plan to collect them all if the project is successful but don't have the budget to buy them all at once and would only be able to buy like, 1 per month? This basically fucks a lot of people who otherwise would have wanted in on this for just a few of the figures. He's basically holding the rest of the characters hostage. This is bullshit KS practices at their worst. He's probably fucking himself over by doing this too. If he just had reward tiers for each character and THEN had the bundle, I bet people would be more inclined to back it, knowing that they can actually choose what they want.

>>5999857
yeah, its pretty stupid that the different faces are all locked behind a wall. just let me buy the body and the face that i want.

its not even like all the faces have their own body, paying extra for swappable faces is stupid, and I don't need the exact same figure multiple times.

I did back though, I have been really looking forward to this, sucks that I get stuck with iride or burley, id prefer hazer, but its not like hazer and iride are THAT much different, so oh no #1stworldproblems

Just put him together. I think he'd be worth $20 but $30 is pushing it. I'm probably not going to put together the clear version. He's cool in robot mode and alt mode is clever despite the parts forming extended barrel that pops off. You can leave it off and it looks more super deformed, but it still works.

There are two big steps to look out for an you may need to cut a few tabs to make things fit snugly but it was enjoyable. He's not as shiny silver like the pictures though. He's a dull gray.

Found a store in Portland that carries third party and a lot more, picked up my first iron factory today alone with Grimlock. Love it.

>>6001431
Finding a store that physically sells third parties is the dream, man.

Honestly, the only thing I feel that's lacking with Third Party buying is the whole standing in a store, looking at different ones and choosing what to buy aspect you get with regular TF's and other toys.

Also his arms are on a sliding joint to shorten them in robot mode but that pic didn't bother to do it so he has gorilla arms if mistransformed.

>$10 spring and ratchet part

I already fixed mine and I only spent about 60 mins and $0. For the arms, I just added the usual floor polish and that was the end of that. Didn't even need to open the arms because the polish seeps in the crevice easily enough. For the legs, I just cut circles out of some thin cardboard medicine packaging. You just need add a layer every time to see how much tension you want.

>>6001872
People have said to loosen the 3 top screws of the legs because it comes packaged in really tight.

>>6001922
LOL The top latch doesn't do shit. The actual connectors that latches on are the 2 on the sides and the 2 small tabs to the 2 small holes at the back. The top and the bottom latches don't do shit.

I got all of these from watching about 4 reviews and reading the tfw thread because as much as I'm not a forum goer, they have their uses.

Hopefully my research that took me a good few hours helps you.

>>6002054
I remember a few threads back I complained that the blue looked off and some tard sperged out and said HURR DATS JUST DA LIGHTING

>>6002077
I understand that the side connectors are the main ones but the top one looks like it is supposed to keep Star Saber's backpack from hinging down from the weight of Simba.

>>6002099
It doesn't, if you actually did enough research like what I did you would know that what you're saying is just simply not the case. Just take it at face value that as much as this is an amazing thing, Keith still has fucked up something on it. Btw, hows the left chest chrome of your Victory Leo? Is it still intact or is it already starting to disintegrate?

Just got mine today and I'm opening the box right now and I'm scared of unfolding his toes, they're super tight.

>>6002229
Glad I waited for reviews and people to break their figures before I ordered. Cross that $200 fragile footed mess off my list now.

>>6002257
I've since gotten them open and in place. I think it was initial tightness from the factory as its fine now.

>>6002229

They're tight because they tab in.

>>6002257

One person here broke theirs. I haven't seen any other reports of breaking, unless you have. In which case, link it, man, so we can read and be informed.

>>6002345
Guy who broke his here.

I want to be clear and say that Carnifex is a fantastic figure. I'm not entirely sure how the screw holes connecting the foot to the leg on mine snapped but I've had zero other issues with the toy after figuring out how those damn shoulder bits work in transformation.

Hell, even with a foot missing he still stands and poses pretty well on my desk.

Still waiting on TFsource to mail me back with what they're going to do about it though.

>>6002077
I ordered the replacement ratchets.

For now I've just rotated his thighs so his knee joints bend outwards. The hip joints more or less support the weight okay and with the thighs turned he can maintain a proper a stance at least.

>>6002345
>They're tight because they tab in.
I knew they tabbed in but they were extremely difficult to pry apart the first time, that's all.

>>6002357
You said that already on the official thread and I already told you my own reasoning for just going the cardboard route.

>>6002365

Oh, yeah. Mine are too. I was just saying it's because they tab in, thats why.

>>6002370
Really impressed with him though. Weighs alot more than I was expecting as well but then I don't have a whole lot of experience with 3rd party stuff yet.

>>6002378

Yeah, he's definitely a favorite of mine. Just, the guy who broke his has me worried even if I haven't seen anyone else saying they broke his.

I'm just a paranoid fuck in general though.

Like Grimlock had?

>Skinny waist and thighs

Like Grimlock had?

He has the same skinny legs and big boots look the MP has.

>hate chrome because it shows any and every defect, molecule of dust, fingerprint, etc.and it easily scratches, chips, and worse more often than not because it's such a shit material
>love Grimlock, whose entire upper torso is chrome

There is no reconciling how bad this feels every time I see a Grimlock.

>>6003460

>That absolutely wonderful bronzy-gold paint GP Guttur had on his tail

Why they don't straight retcon the chrome silvers and gold to that wonderful sheen is beyond me.

>>6003466

Thats actually why I wanted the FP (was it FP?) Not-Dinobots. Those silver/gold paints looked much less susceptible to all of the fuckery that can happen with chrome, and they were still very shiny looking.

Unfortunately the FP Dinobots ended up not being so great.

Columpio was alright.

Neither are right, but MP-08 has the better aesthetic, and less noticeable joints. MP-08 gets the legs right, FT gets the head right (even though it looks awful in comparison, it's more accurate). Both of them have fuck huge shoulders inspired by the comics and not the animation. Who cares. They are toys, buy what you want.

>>6003492

Honestly, if I could nab them for $50 a pop I'd probably be fine with them. But for $85-90 each? Nah.

>>6003477
I think that looks great except the hip/upper thigh area needed to be a little more bulked up.

>>6002075
you and me both. I get hexatron for a day them I found out about this one, iron factory, and GDW03.

still love hexatron though. good time to be a sixshot fan

>>6003527

You aren't alone in this criticism. I don't see the issue as it's legs are proportionally the same on him as the MP and people don't seem to have an issue with it. Even relative to Grinder's larger size his thighs are proportionally larger than the MP's even.

I think it's the wider boots on Grinder that makes the thighs look out of proportion for some people. I dunno. Looks pretty perfect for me.

I'm thinking of getting the currently on-sale x-Ray and gun set as my first 3rd party kit and have some questions.

Can I use the weapons with my hastak tf's?

Are there any qc issues with x-ray?

Can I paint the plastic or does it have a finish applied out of the box?

Thank you for your time, /3ptg

>$85-90 each?
I had 3 of them and I can say with confidence that they were NOT worth $90 each. In fact none of the current non MP dinobots are worth their asking prices except maybe Planet X's swoop.

Just got Carnifex. Getting him into jet mode is a fucking nightmare. There are so many clearance issues and so many unnecessary tabs that need to lock in just the right way or else they'll snap off. I fucked up the tabs in his backpack when I was trying to position the wing-tips downward and now he won't hold together properly. The backpack doesn't slide down properly to transform him into jet, it always gets stuck halfway and then there are two tabs that hold his jetpack in that keep coming untabbed when I try to slide it down that just completely ruin the experience of what could be a great transformation. Getting the shield/buckler pieces to form the cockpit is a nightmare as well. That being said, he looks good in robot mode but his foot snapped off while I was transforming him and there's no way of fixing it. I tried going slow with this figure, I really did. The overall plastic quality is great and feels about 20% better than Hasbro's but man....so many missteps with this guy.

>>6004103
Oh yeah, the robot legs keep popping off at the thigh when I try to bend them upwards.

>>6004103
>Foot snapped off

Welcome to the club, friend.

No idea about the rest of your issues though.

I don't know if this is a troll or you're the unluckiest motherfucker alive or something. Lets see some pics Anon. I want to see just how badly you fucked everything up.

>>6004118
>>6004114
Like, quality on the plastic is great(save for the left foot)and he looks amazing in all of his modes. It's just that there are so many tabs and areas where there's barely any clearance to move them and his arms needing to be positioned just right in order for you to not break something off. Also, the transformation that MMC recommends for the robot mode head has created friction scratching on his antlers bashing up against the jet mode cockpit.

>>6004127
Wow, you even snapped the same foot I did.

>>6004129
It might be a running problem.

>>6004127

Pics. Seriously, I want to see this. This sounds amazingly bad.

>>6004131
Well, it is hard to run if you are missing a foot.

>>6004118
This. Sounds like a troll post unless >>6004127
can provide some pics.

>>6004129
There are two screwholes that the leg connects to, that's where mine broke off. I went to go tilt his foot for a dynamic pose and it just snapped.

>>6004132
>>6004136
You'll have to wait about 4 hours, I'm currently on lunch in our break room. Will post pics once I get home, though.

>>6004137
Sounds about right. I was transforming him.

You can see my pic here

>>6004140
I'm going to contact MMC and see if I can order a replacement leg. As for now, just be very careful with your Carnifex's. I was trying not to ham-hand mine and still did it.

>>6004142
still waiting on TFsource to get back to me on what they are actually going to do about mine. Last I heard they were looking into what their options were.

>>6003835
Please responce

>>6003835
The individual weapons are 5mm compatible, yes.

As far as X-Ray goes, the finish looks fine but you can paint it if you like. There are some bits that need to be shaved down, so don't force things, especially the thigh swivels. I remember Emgo broke his in several places, but he is an idiot with sausage fingers so take that into account.

>>6003286
It's either that or nothing since nothing else scale with them.

>>6004127
Plastic quality is the same everywhere on the figure. It's just bad engineering.

>>6004139
Still waiting on those pics.

>>6004103
>>6004127
I've only transformed him once and back, but this is basically my thoughts exactly on it. Going into it I knew everyone was saying the shoulders are a nightmare, but really it's the backpack. Getting it to slide up and down is a nightmare, and the actual plastic on the white hinges is incredibly thin/flexible. It's the only thing on him that actually feels cheap, and it's ridiculous complexity only compounds the fragility. I'm basically just gonna leave him in robot mode forever, which isn't bad because his alt modes weren't even on my radar, but it's also bullshit because I shouldn't have to.

>>6004129
>>6004114
>>6004132
I'm also waiting on foot pics, because I'm hoping I can unscew something and do preventative maintenance on it before it happens to me. I noticed his ankles were incredibly stiff out of the box, and I immediately could see it being a problem.

>>6004463
>>6004732
starting to believe that guy was a troll building off what he read about the one real broken foot

>>6004787
It's possible, but even if no one had mentioned it I'd still be shitting my pants every time I tried to move his feet. I can honestly say I've never seen a tighter joint on an action figure.

>>6004732
The backpack sliding has a really simple solution.

What's holding it in the up position are tabs on the wings so you just open it up and fold out the wings slightly and it should slide just fine.

>>6003926
Dude, Planet X's Vulcan (Grimlock) is totally worth the asking price. The engineering is fantastic, the transformation is neat, the articulation is probably the best we've gotten from any Grimlock, and they did a really good job with screen accuracy. Sure, some liberties were taken, but he's great representation of FoC Grimmy.
