Cool. Can't wait. Btw,there is another Trailer coming Tommorow.

Don't be fooled. Between all the trailers, we've probably seen 90% of the cg robot shots in the movie. The rest of the film's runtime will be stupid human drama, explosions, and retarded Bay "jokes."

>>6363550
Fuck off. I don't give a shit about what are you saying.

Hmm,let's see:

>No fucking Krueger who ruined the series
>Michael Bay can make good movies:TF1,Armagedon,Bad Boy,The Rock,13 Hours,etc
>You are just jealous
>You won't change anyone's mind about the movie
>It will make 2 billion
>Got it? Good.

Also comes with no weapons, he's just holding extra Hound guns in the pics.

Disappointing, but I never got Lockdown so I don't mind picking this up.

>>6363569
>>6363571

People keep saying he's not a retool of Lockdown because he's larger. I think it's more that they got the real license so the actual new shell just ends up larger on the same skeleton.

Like the rear bumper/shoulders, it's clearly just much thicker, but the same piece. I imagine the hood chunk is slightly longer as well, which just results in a car that ends up being longer.

Basically Lockdown is a fake car, Hot Rod, is licensed.

>>6363582

I thought Lockdown was alright. He was just too damn small.

For being the movie's main villain it's a shame he never got a good toy. He's one of those guys that really would have benefited from a Human Alliance figure if that line still existed.

Oh cool. It'll cost $40, but that actually looks worth it. I missed out on WFC Optimus because of my "Too many Optimi" issue, but I've since embraced it.

>>6363613

I don't have a pic handy but the Crocodile mold makes a cool Croc robot man if you just flip the head up.

So what's the best TR fig from each wave ?
For me it's Hardhead, Chromedome, Triggerhappy, Topspin, Twin twist

I was thinking of getting the reissue of mp sideswipe and lg sixshot from kapow toys, but they're doing some weird £1 preorder deposit thing with price estimates, does anyone know if closer to release it'll change to a normal preorder, or will it remain as is until release?

>>6363592
Hmmm, I love the WfC Prime mold, but I already have it and the voyager-scaled KO. However, I alos love that Kup mold and really want that Orion Pax.

>>6363675
This box set looks so much better than the other one.

>>6363592
I never got to buying WFC Optimus but I just bought Kup, how annoying.
Maybe I'll check later if Mandarake has the Darkside set or just WFC Optimus.

And this amazing set is sold out on the only place to get it.

I contacted their CS Department to see if they would be receiving more. They said no. There's several places that have rather large orders out but they would place cancelations up for sale after they get shipping. I then asked if they would raise the price like they usually do and he said that they can get "market price" for items that previously sold out.

Looks like I'll be opening another BBB case against them and will get compensated well again.

>>6363592
I think the mold looks better for Kup, but it still looks cool (don't ownt the new Kup) This'll be a great excuse to finally get a WFC Prime and that new mold.

>>6363675
So what's the deal with this set?

Is it still BBTS exclusive or are a bunch of random literal who shops still selling it?

>>6363637
Yeah, everyone but Hasbro redecoed Hound w/ Ravage.

>>6363739
So, please do explain how this "well compensation" thing works.

>>6363739
>Looks like I'll be opening another BBB case against them and will get compensated well again.

>>6363592
I really like the look of that Orion Pax. WFC Optimus doesn't really match aesthetically, but it's still a cool package.

>>6363744
Yeah it's a BBTS exclusive set. It went up for preorder and sold out immediately. So unless you want to pay double what like the TRU set is going for, that was it.

Licensing for the vehicle.

>>6363762
I would have prefered literally anything to that awful energon Grimlock mold. Give me fucking Dinobot in Grimlock colors to match that Walmat Slug and Strafe.

>>6363770
Pmop prime is htf here in manila.
I was lucky to get one of the few restocks.
He's actually more solid than powerpuff convoy. The truck trailer panels lock well and the robot mode shins are just more stable. Ginrai is just flimsy and fiddly in general

>>6363774
Just to add:
There are still negatives on pmop.
The weapons are literally from ultra magnus. Might swap some to make it matching.
The hands seem tighter than magnus's limp grip but I would have wanted 5mm compatible finger molds.

>>6363754
>>6363752
I'll try to give you the shortest possible version.

My buddy got this really bad ass Punisher figure which was a Previews exclusive but he got it from BBTS. It was sold out on their site so I contacted them to see if they are getting more.

They said it was a limited item but they have a bunch from cancels and unpaid orders that they need to clear but will put back up for sale. I just need to keep checking back. And they did put them back up but now it was $200 not the $130 it was previously listed for.

I contacted them about this, especially since I emailed them about it. They said they can sell it for a "fair market price" since it was sold out and they were way cheaper than eBay was.

I contacted BBB about their shady business practices. I had to send copies of emails and screen shots etc. BBTS contacted me about a few days later. They sold it to me for $130, shipped it free to me and gave me a $25 credit on a future order.

They have an A+ rating and don't want to tarnish that!

>How do I do this unofficial transformation on the feet
Literally just bend the joint up, it doesn't go anywhere else.

It props up Ginrai's legs and circumvents the ankle joint so Ginrai doesn't topple over from the weight of Godbomber

No, it's just a tolerance issue on Ginrai's ankle joint. Sometimes it's too weak to hold the weight of the toy, and whenever that's the case it sure as fuck can't carry Godbomber on his back.

It's worth doing that fanmode anyway though considering there isn't anywhere else to put those parts.

Small things are more likely to be seen as cute by people. Some psychological thing, theres probably a term for it.

Also they really seemed to nail his tolerances. Maybe the factory is finally getting it's shit together? Seaspray is perfect all around in terms of tolerances. I wish his hip joints were better done though. They don't have the typical cut in the top like most ball joint legs do, so he can't do the splits.

While cool, I have a small issue with the Hardead mold:
the wrists feel a bit too long for my tastes
Also I wish it had the half open hand instead of a closed fist

>>6364107
y'know, THAT webm

>>6364143
Well, I already own WFC Prime, T30 Orion, and the TR Kup, so I don't really need this.

This is great for anyone who wants WFC Prime, and wants to get the Kup mold but don't want it to be Kup.

>>6364153
I have no idea what you're talking about dude.

>>6364157
then I don't either
cuz clearly we're not talking about the same thing

>>6363847
They're getting harder to buy from, that's for sure. But as somebody who's tried to sell this stuff, I totally get why they do what they do.

Way too many people are too poor to buy 2 $20 toys together for $47 shipped. But they don't want to pay $27 shipped twice either. So they whine until they get free shipping or half off, at which point the sale is net negative.

And that's why they gouge the fuck out of hot sellers.

>>6364143
This might be nice to get, actually. Is it exclusive to any place or will I actually get it?

>>6364131
>fish snidely is more popular than robot whitebeard

>>6364103

>>only $20 and you can just get it at Target

Now $20 gets you a half-molded deluxe with stickers

>>6364143
There's actually quite a bit of repaint going on for WFC too. Neon baby blue instead of neon pink, a much nicer looking body instead of the original cheap hasbro grey.

>>6364166
You could never get them at Target, at least not around here.

When you pre-order multiple items with different release dates from robotkingdom, do they just hold onto everything for you until everything is released or do they ship everything as it releases?

It feels like the answer should be obvious but I dunno.

Well just rewatched the first film in preperation for the last knight. Still loved it, the action, the comedic bits, the stupid bits, awesome.

Made me want to pick up the mpms, Optimus looks good, but it's lame that Bumblebee's the wrong colour, and it's weird that even though it's a movie one figure, he doesn't have leg severing action, or those two shoulder rocket things he used to kill brawl,maybe they'll do a reissue in the future with all that fixed? I'd like it.

>>6364163
I think the AOE version of these things were Target exclusives, or TRU, not sure.

I'm still confused about some of the changes done to the Hasbro deco, like the pelvis being painted blue for some reason, and the Ginrai Headmaster getting different colors (which is weird since it doesn't look like any pieces had their molded colors changed)

>>6363996
He's a cute fatty though. And good, someone with a good camera finally got it, you can see the name of his waifu on his arm there, that's fucking cute, man.

Takara's not charging $120, that price is set by BBTS/TFsource/ect. It's only $88 on AmiAmi and HLJ, which really isn't to much more than the third party options.

>>6364130
Please post an example

>>6364182
Amiami and HLJ both have him marked down from a 12000yen MSRP. He's not supposed to be 88$

>>6364103

To this day, why. I'm glad I was a poorfag back then- I just skipped Prowl since it looked like trash and I didn't want to import the better looking Binaltech.

Skids was equally "US deco sucks" but at least he had the chin strap on his face unpainted. Takara's wound up looking like he had a fat double chin.

>>6364177
I think there's quite a world of difference between painting up the plastic to make it look better and painting something blatantly silver and then selling something flat grey.

At least it's actually grey and that earwax-beige color hasbro is so fond of. That color makes PMOP look so disgusting.

Really all it is is just a clever way to make more hollow bits, if anything. More TFs should have the recessed spaces sculpted like pistons or gears. A few figures have done it and it helps save face. Even back in Beast Wars some figures did this.silverbolt has two bones in his thighs, for example

As more and more good Legends figures get released, it really leaves me wanting for a good Warpath. And I guess a new Cliffjumper. Surprised we got Chase rather than Cliffjumper out of Bumblebee so far. I know there was the Megatron recolor/mold for Warpath, but I want something with the original cannon-in-the-chest styling. Maybe in the next line?

Also speaking of minibots, wheres Blueguy and Eject?

>>6364338
Since we just got a new Warpath, I don't expect one any time soon.

>Also speaking of minibots, wheres Blueguy and Eject?

You're like the people who thought MP Wheeljack could be "reshelled" into Sunstreaker.

I think people have just started to use reshelling as a term for "similar engineering, new parts". Like Highbrow and Scourge.

That said, turning MPM3 into a 78 camero would take more effort than a "simple" "reshell". At lot of the same engineering concepts could be reused from MPM3 but the cars just have completely different body shapes.
