A lot of these would be good choices squarely because of the clusterfuck of having to somehow make it work in the comics, especially how some of them have already been portrayed.

>>
>>6051072

Won't vote for:

-UM: either because they'll pull him from MTMTE, or because the whole "real Magnus might be alive somewhere" thing would probably happen even if he didn't win.
-Megatron: Let's leave this to fanfiction or Funpub.
-Star Saber: What he's going to do is so predictable that I don't care.
-Unknown Evil: Could be interesting but he's been handled so bad in his few appearances in MTMTE.
-Optimus Primal: He might as well be a Prime already, plus a second Optimus would be stupid.
-Thunderwing: Was just a mindless monster before, and he's dead.
-Shockwave: Dead, I don't want him to be brought back and make his death cheap.
-Arcee: This version doesn't strike me as leader material, and her plot would happen even if she didn't win (going against Optimus).


I'll probably pick Hound since he's a complete wildcard since he's never done anything important, specially in IDW so I want to win.


But this won't really matter since they're all probably getting new toys in the end, they'll just add a Matrix Champer or something to the winner.

If you can't respond to criticism without resorting to sarcasm maybe you shouldn't browse this site.

Nighstick looks fun as fuck. Hopefully his grip isn't too big to be used with all other MPs. Looks like he might have 3mm holes for fists? That's neat. Too bad they're not 5mm, but he's probably too small for that.

UW version too? Admittingly I don't think I'd pay $40 more just for elbows any way.
>>
>>6051376
It never used to be this strict, though. People will argue that the MP line was ALWAYS about STRICT and SLAVISH cartoon accuracy, but looking at MP-10 and the earliest Autobot cars and stuff, you can tell that wasn't true. It was about creating a high-quality, G1-inspired toy while drawing inspiration from multiple G1 sources.

>>6051415
I wouldn't say that's pandering. It's just a mission statement. With your logic, everything product is pandering.
>>
>>6051416
Yep, the figure in general is a mistake.

Trypticon will probably be 50x better than Devy, based on what we've seen so far. Also he'll pair up perfectly with Metroplex, if you have him.

If by "your logic" you mean "the definition of the word pandering", then yeah, if you're talking high-end luxury items like Masterpieces. Pander, to gratify, indulge, cater to, satisfy. How is the Masterpiece line anything BUT pandering? And how is pandering to an audience for a product a bad thing from Takara's point of view? They're a business, pandering to the fans gets them sales. Simple as.

God he looks derpy. Almost worse than Nightbeat.

>>6051421
I wouldn't say it was ever strict at all. The closest thing to a slavishly cartoon accurate MP before the recent design trends was MP01 and they sure as shit dropped that idea fast when MP03 came out and went for a realistic jet mode first and foremost that wasn't seen anywhere for G1 Starscream.
From then pretty much up until Laserwave, MPs have been designed based off of the original likeness of the character and using details from the vehicles they're based on to make high detail products. I wouldn't say any of the previous MPs are slavish to the original designs, they went for their own distinct style instead of trying to replicate poorly animated toy commercials.

If only it were that easy...

TR is clearly much cheaper and more easy to obtain, plus it continues the TM play pattern. Unfortunately Megs is sort of just GW grey throughout and OP has a pretty terrible plane mode.

Whereas Maketoys has the superior articulation and aesthetics, but Despotron turns into a rifle rather than a tank or a plane and they're at least twice as expensive as OP and Megs.

I seriously can't decide.

It's like they misunderstood the term "front appeal" or something and thought that it's perfectly fine if a toy is a mess of joints and folded panels if you look at it from literally any other angle but the front.
>>
>>6051701
Jesus that looks awful. I will say the jointed flail is a cool touch, but that aside...yeesh. I think I'll get Despotron.

Actually, figures that look great from the front but shit from every other angle really get on my tits in general. TR Skullcruncher's legs, FoC Swindle's literally everything...
>>
>>6051707
I have pretty high tolerances for bad angles. Like I can deal with hollow legs or a really kibbly back or what-have-you, but MP36 really falls apart from any angle but the front. From above you see how greebly his shoulders are, from the sides his midsection stops making sense and you can see how hollow his arms are and the back looks like someone disassembled a figure and what you're seeing is the inside of a torso.

Just about the only thing that really looks good and really comes off as MP quality are his legs, which all other Megatrons have struggled with in the past.

If I never get a good MP scale non-transforming Megatron then I at least hope some 3P company rips off the leg engineering to use in their own autismo.

I know people like to chimp out when 3P's are suggested to be quality products but pic related is REALLY good. He has the best transformation of any autimso at this scale so far and he cleans up wonderfully.

He's THICC though in a dreamwave way so he might not be up to toon standards for you though.

I'm probably gonna get him eventually. I just don't like how boxy his legs are

Visor and ears pop off very easily, and it's better to just get them out of the way first.

There are 6 screws keeping the entire thing together. Starting from the smallest pair located right underneath the visor.

Once the screws in Cerebros' chest come out, you can pull the chestplate off. You can see that the speaker and chest LED are embedded into the back of the chest plate, but it's not glued in or anything and snugly fits in with friction. A gentle tug on it using a pair of tweezers is enough to get them to slip out.

You can get a good look at the soundboard here.

Assuming Takara's is identical, all you'd need to do is keep in mind which wires go to what, desolder both, swap, and solder them back in their respective heads.

Here's a look at the voice activation switch. The tiny black box in the middle there is the switch itself. The blue stuff and springs is all just fluff.

The yellow wire goes to an IF switch that changes the lines depending on whether or not Fort Max's visor is flipped down and activates a sound when it's pressed in or out. Brown goes to the battery box, black is presumably the ground. I forgot to see where the purple one goes. It's probably a trap and causes Cerebros to explode if I were to cut it.

>>6051949
Soundwave end you are looking at reissues
it fluctuates around $50 and $100. Just search reissue with the name and you'll have answers.
Shockwave you will have to settle for knock offs. He has never gotten an office reissue of his G1 toy. Assumption is licensing issues with the original toy like Jetfire and Macross.

You don't get it. They need time to actualy design the toys, whether they win or not. They're not going to reuse any old molds either because a): Hasbro has generally always released new molds for new lines and b): some of the characters in the poll don't even have CHUG figures.

>>6052038
They have to reveal the figures several months before the line starts. Several months is nowhere near enough time to design an entire figure from scratch.

Lines are usually planned and designed 1-2 years in advance.

There's one bit of it that implies they might already have something ready since they're showing the winner on toy fair.
>>
>>6051072
Some of these choices would be great if it wasn't for how they're currently portrayed in IDW. Also, I assume a new toy will come out for the winner?

Ultra Magnus: Either someone else will take up the mantle of Ultra Magnus or he's gonna be this guy with extreme OCD. Don't need a toy either, his recent releases have been great and already filled that void.

Hound: The underdog. No prior portrayal. Bumblebee's already done the bleeding heart thing. Mildly interested in a new toy. I already have Henkei Hound, but hey, the winner of this will be a Prime, so Hound as an APC (that isn't the movie version)? That could be cool.

Arcee: So, she'll be what, the equivalent of Grimlock in the old comics? Arc Prime as a new toy? Could be interesting, tow-wise. But not strictly necessary.

Megatron: The most obvious choice. While not terribly exciting simply because of how "obvious" it is, I don't find the idea of turning Megatron into a Prime to be objectionable. I also don't object to yet another Megatron toy.

Star Saber: It would have been cool to see Star Saber as Prime. Too bad IDW's portrayal of all the Japanese characters have been laaaaame on the grounds that they pointlessly changed their personalities. Stil, a non-MP Star Saber might be cool.

Thunderwing: Eh, boring. Toy might be cool though.

Unknown Evil: Unknown Evil is the exception to the "IDW pointlessly ruined all the Japanese characters" rule. I think given how he's been portrayed, Unknown Evil might be a cool leader to have. He'd be like Starscream only without the lackluster portrayal. Also, a new Unknown Evil toy would be great.

Optimus Primal: Booooring. He's like Ultra Magnus or Thunderwing in that while he might be a cool character, there's not much that 'pops' with him. He's got plenty of good toys although we might see more Beasts if he gets voted?

Shockwave: Story-wise, don't see what he'd add. Nor toy-wise.

>>6052096
I totally agree. And he's so completely underarmed for the retail price point. The upgrade sets you see from third party like the cannon and ankle tilt kits are practically non-optional for robot mode.

Unfortunately none of that helps with the base mode or city mode.

>I don't know how product design works
They'll still have to tweak some aspects of the design depending on what works and what doesn't, come up with box art/card art, probably sticker graphics, then they'll need to create injection moulds to actually produce the figure.
Then there's the fact the line doesn't start until 2018.

Because that's how releases work.

Grow the fuck up you impatient underage.

>>6052118
Because a): Tryps is an infinitely bigger and more expensive item and b): this one actually has a deadline that's very short. Tryps had no set deadline until Hasbro announced he won and that he would be released 2017.

Actually, looking at the first articles about the vote, it was stated that the winner would be available in late 2016. I guess they didn't really have the dev time down for Titan figures.

You're right that the size and expense would be limiting though, when you're not even sure which of your three Titan designs was gonna win the vote.
>>
>>6052138
It's the hinge that's the problem.

The tab on the other end is too long so it stresses the hinge too much when you try to put it in or out. You can fix it by shaving down the tab or just outright getting rid of it. The toy doesn't need to have that hatch secured for it to stay closed anyways.
>>

The toy's other regret is how lazy Hastak were with its alt modes.

Tryps was never glued to or set to a release of any line, whereas this vote is strictly related to the Power of the Primes line. This means that this has a definite deadline, whereas Tryps had much less of an obligation.

They did actually say the vote was for a Titans Return figure, putting the release somewhere between 2016 and 2017.

Regarding the notion of Ultra Magnus and him becoming a Prime: would not the fucking simplest thing be to use the plot device of the Matrix upgrading Minimus to being Ultra Magnus WITHOUT the armor? Reformating his midget body to make him look like he does in the Ultra Magnus armor?

Perhaps even using Diaclone Ultra Magnus colors for Ultra Magnus Prime?

And another reason for Ultra Magnus to become a Prime: gets him the fuck out of the Lost Light book where NOTHING FUCKING HAPPENS and over into Optimus's book, which is DESPERATELY NEEDED as Optimus Prime has surrounded himself with immoral axe murderers and psychopaths and sexually mutilated psychopaths (Arcee) who keep pushing Prime down more and more slippery slope of villain behavior.

Having Ultra Magnus as a Prime means Optimus will FINALLY have someone who can beat Arcee to death next time she gets caught betraying Prime by secretly working with the Decepticons, kill the traitor Prowl on sight, and force the rest of the Autobots to grow a pair and join in on beating Arcee and Kup to death whenever they go off reservation

>>6052164
Because he would scale horribly with TR and Trypticon was the logical counterpart to Metroplex?

To add on to that: IDW Star Saber is basically a religious fanatic crusader while Deathsaurus is more like a mob boss controlling a small faction of renegade Decepticons or something. As far as I know they aren't related.

>>6052192
No, because they want it to be super spooky and edgy and they probably want to try and keep Deathsaurus' release in W6 under wraps even though everyone already knows about it.

Some designs just look like shit senpai. Huge rectangles of unpainted plastic hurt my eyes.

Nothing needs reprolabels. Reprolabels make everything look worse. They're so fucking cheap-looking, I wouldn't put them on a regular retail toy, never mind an MP.

That said, Inferno does need some help. Here's hoping Ocean Designs makes some proper decals.

Sixshot's a bit underwhelming desu. His articulation is a major fuckup.

Here's him next to the Autobot headmasters, Superion and another purple and green friend.

you have been visited by the sleepy sixdoggo of sleepiness

good dreams and dead magnuses will come to you, but only if you post "sleep tight sixdoggo"
>>
>>6052540

Phase Sixers are supposed to be able to "shave an inch off an entire planet". They're the ultimate expression of Decepticon brute force.

I mean there's three of them. Three.

So frankly I'd bet high on them against anybody except Galvatron, the entire DJD or Thunderwing.
>>
>>6052556
But then you're forgetting that the Eva units are (in fiction) 75m tall and all have force fields that are practically impenetrable by most conventional weaponary. I have no clue how Decepticon weapons would fare against AT fields though.

I'm putting together a list of TR shit to add to my collection following my own autistic standards (basically, it has to be dynamic and not have entire sections of the altmode chunk out into limbs)
>Brainstorm
>Hardhead (doubtful)
>Hot Rod (maybe, it looks below average)
>Twinferno (idunno, gorilla arms)
>Triggerhappy
>Galvatron
>Astrotrain
>Broadside
What other shit do you recommend me to get?
>>
>>6053119
>not have entire sections of the altmode chunk out into limbs
Definitely not Sentinel/Astrotrain. Shuttle mode is a guy standing at attention while train mode the guy doing epic splits.

Leader Soundwave was under 40 bucks from Amazon Warehouse. I now have Wave 2 complete and just need Sixshot and Voyager Blitzwing Megatron to finish off wave 3.

It's alright when that mold does it IMO.

Add Shockwave to anything and it is instantly better

What's wrong with his articulation?
>>
>>6053828
not anon but he has a lot of clearance issues that make it hard to do much posing with him.

Jam the minicon in and it opens up the vehicle mode. It's like that Stealth force gimmick line from ROTF.

Meh. Kinda disappointing that this is the followup to those Minicon Battle packs.

Ankle tilts are totally useless due to having soft detents at the 45 degree and 90 degree angles

Elbows can't bend 90 degrees due to weird design issues

Outward shoulder movement is limited due to the massive shoulder pylons

Those are the main issues with him really. Visually he's awesome but the articulation is a massive fuckup in more ways than one.
>>
>>6054169
>Elbows can't bend 90 degrees
You can get it to bend that extra 5 degrees by pulling down the arms.
>>
>>6054171
Yeah, but it'd be nice if I could actually move the elbows to something closer to a 150 so that I could do some cool gun cocking poses.

I mean, he has two fucking guns, and he's motherfucking Sixshot. He was literally destined to do a gun cocking pose on my shelf.
>>
>>6054163
I think it's because of his stupid helmet, plus he's a bad guy
>>
>>6054199
>Bad guys don't sell

Bruticus limbs sold out faster than Superion.

Though in retrospect I think it's that LCs sell worse.

Go away, Aaron.

weird as it sounds that's an omen it's a samefag using to IPs/devices because the odds of that happening on a board this slow are nonexistent.
>>

It's actualy very difficult to time something like that, due to factors like post upload and server speed.

It's definitely not a samefag though, I was equally shocked when my post time lined up exactly with the other guy.
