Where are my POTP beast-formers?

We were promised great stuff at SDCC.

Where are the great stuff?

>>6433395

goddamn i wish we could get Classics figures of the RID Decepticons.

What are YOU picking up of the new stuff?

I might get Beachcomber.

>>6433404
give it time, with primal stepping up in the toyline well get more beast types so at the very least repaints will happen.

>>6433409
beach, rod, jazz, and maybe star scream; kinda hoping there isnt much else good this time around to assault my wallet

>Look over over the deluxe hot rod and the beef up leader

It is going to be a part former

>>6433429
Welcome to where everyone else was last afternoon

>>6433429
Always has been, but not the way I'd of wanted it.

Would of worked in the TR line, have the trailer turn into a base/battle station mode like the g1 toy but its nothing more than a kibble infested armor up for the mini hotrod inside.

Looks great on the front at least but I REALLY need to see what the deluxe hotrod looks like

>>6433435
There are pics of the Deluxe in the panel slides

>>6433438
I've only seen the deluxe CAR mode, not the robot unless they're exactly the same and the orange fist are just junk parts

>>6433440
There's the robot mode there, look closer

>>6433444
>>6433441
I just spent all this time trying to look and now I'm even MORE confused, but least the hands confirm what I scrolled past wasn't a color mistake as I see differences in comparison

Looks too much like his "prime" mode, does give me something important to think about though.

To get my legends hotrod or get this instead

I wish there was some way to have his head sit a little further back. I'd even personally sacrifice the shoulder articulation for it.

I hope some third party comes up with a better trailer eventually.

>>6433451
Might as well wait for an mp 2.0 because you'll be paying that much just to fix one nagging issue, never understood 3p upgrades when they cost so much for something so little.

Which reminds me, I want bootleg cw hands and feet as in the PE ones, best cheapest place that ships internationally?

>>6433456
Shins fold up to form the shoulders

>>6433451
The more I look at it the more retarded the shoulder system seems.
If the shoulder pylons were hollow toward the head than it could fold in like normal instead of having the legs move up and in the process look completely idiotic.

>I wish there was some way to have his head sit a little further back.

From other angles, it does not look that bad.

The problem seems to be the huge backpack that gives the illusion of crooked forwarding head and hunchback look.

Maybe the rack on the back sis removable?

>>6433460
Yeah...when you want hotrod then its gone.

I really do want to see what the hotrod looks like from 360 because frankly from the front of the slide he looks better than the in hand leader, must be some hollowness to necessitate the conversion from deluxe to leader, cost wise

>>6433456
>File name

It looks right, but how would the big guy's shoulders move?

>>6433409
All of them except Jazz and SS, I'll wait for their
obscure char repaints.

>>6433449
I would cancell my preorder, but don't want to risk getting into the store black list. I'll just take the targetmaster out and sell the rest.

So is this it for new reveals for SDCC?

Either thight swivels over the knee hinges or, (hope not) balljointed knees.

>>6433481
Looking at the angle it's at, wouldn't the swivel have to be placed a bit weird?
I might just be getting paranoid from the non-warrior RID articulation.

>>6433429
did you truly think that arms on Rodimus Prime mode is fully formed from Hot Rod's legs ?

it's clearly come from the Winnebago's front roof and have to be detached/attached to Hot Rod's leg when turning into Rodimus Prime.

>>6433499
I thought Arcee was supposed to be a Titan Master scale, but I don't really mind this.

>>6433499
Boy, do I wish the Blurr mold actually looked that feminine. Oh well, hopefully they do crazy glasgow face Arcee this time around

>>6433515
Seen rebirth?

Arcee had a full body with Daniel acting as her head, it was a rumor that she was just a head for this line, and it seems it may be false afterall

>>6433415
Same thing with ultra magnus
Implies we're just getting heads in gift sets.
Why, when there's nothing for them to go on is beyond me. Thunderwing had blackshadow and zeus nitro, rodimus had hotrod.
UM could go onto pmop, but why, we already had that toy
And literally nothing passes for scorponok

>>6433499
Wow I predicted this...
I wonder how the backpack will work.

>>6433527
Simple, its the blurr mold, new shield accessory like with brainstorm.

It all works out

>>6433530
This
The fenders are molded onto the hood.
Not a bad idea
Might pick uop, since I own no version of this mold

>>6433530
Oh yeah! So does that mean she's gonna have clear boobs because of the windshield?

I hope being a the butt end of Titans Return doesn't endanger her from being sparse like past lines.

>>6433429
Good. I'm glad the autists that bitched nonstop about Headmasters being parts formers finally have some actual partsforming to whine over.

>>6433531
I'll be skipping since I already have 2 versions of this mold plus the takara legends.

Almost perfection aside from brainstorm and the fact none are mp's

>>6433533
Well really she'll be a chestlet, if the art matches it'll be painted up to look more like her more known g1 chest colors

I'm more curious to know if takara has plans or not but there is talk this might be part of a box set, I'm positive its bullshit but I don't know if the box sets come with lone cards

>>6433538
Box sets come with a poster for all inside, no cards

>>6433499
New hips and waist would have made this mold work way better for her and Nautica. Shame.

>>6433542
Well, there we go then, guess she'll show up with the last of the decepticon target masters...coulda sworn he was meant to be single packed though, maybe I read wrong

>>6433543
That's too much effort

>>6433546
There's other issues
No other deluxe card is sideways, or an action pose

>>6433547
Good point, perhaps a precursor to what POTP's will bring to their art cards?

Much like cw buzzsaw having titan master pegs?

>>6433546
>That's too much effort
So is tracking her down to buy one for myself.

No, it probably pegs/tabs around Hot Rod's shins

Because they'll also complain about taking a near perfect figure and giving her a bigger head and trying to make it sit in a too small driver's seat

Oh how I longed for the destruction of the transformers franchise but never thought I'd live to see it commit suicide

>>6433628
With walky and the allspark, it was bound to happen. I'm surprised it took this long.

>>6433628
IDW seems to force in a new OC fembot every book not to mention the constant EVENTs. It could very well be the end of IDW at least.

>>6433616
I sure hope Walky's site isn't bookmarked.

>>6433636
I wish they'd do little contained stories like LSotW again instead of these giant interconnected events, I stopped reading like a year ago when I just couldn't follow what the fuck was supposed to be happening anymore.

>>6433636

Unicron's showing up.

IDW is probably going to end in the next few years. I imagine around 2019 or 2020, it's getting a hard reboot. Maybe Unicron will be The Flashpoint event.

>>6433653
but who else will do tf comics, i dont see marvel dc dark horse etc taking them unless hasbro does that in house

>>6433653
maybe a proper zero day reboot for the whole hasbro line. different books covering different points in time like fall of cybertron in the distant past with near past being joes and eventual reappearance of the autobots more inline with g1 toon/comics. with the visionaries covering the far flung post apocalyptic future with the return of magic

>>6433656

no IDW will still have the licence but they start a new continuity. I mean this current comic series has been ongoing for like 11 years now.

It'd be nice to have a fresh start and not be bogged down by the past. Frankly around Chaos Theory, it should have become a new continuity.

>>6433656
They'll give it to funpub

>>6433641
>LSotW
That book made me actually care about the comic universe. The -ation stories were fun in their own right as dumb robot drama, but Last Stand is still the best piece of official TF fiction written.
The RiD series was a return to the -ation type drama with 100% more robots and 100% less humans. MtMTE was up there with LSoTW for the first season in my opinion. Everything dropped in quality after Dark Cybertron. RiD brought back humans doing the same shit again. MtMTE just progressively got worse. Windblade can be summed up by posting a comparison screencap comparing it to literally any other transformers comic at the time.

I dropped off before combiner wars started.

>>6433499
Looking at this card, the pevils and legs are the same which I'm ok with since it could work but it actually seems like most of the torso and up is new, the only parts that are probably Blurr carryover are the arms from the elbow and down. Let's hope she's not terrible

He's important enough that another new toy wouldn't be impossible. Arcee had her last toy in T30, skipped CW, and now is getting another one in TR. Magnus had one in CW, skipped TR, and now could get another in POTP.

>>6433729
>Too soon.

Didn't stop them for Scattershot, Arcee, Hot Rod or Brawn and those aren't potential Prime repaints.

So, are they showing the last wave for TR? By Hascon, we'll probably have listing for that wave so it's better to start revealing that now before the online stores do.

Yep, thats why its "deluxe botmode" looks great.

>>6433678
If Primal transformed into typical Gorilla mode then his 'Trailer" would combine into Optimal Optimus. That'll be a pretty nice throwback to how Primal became Optimal Optimus, assuming the Matrix is actually the Matrix in the show, it ties in well with the theme of PotP

Wouldn't Undertow work better? I have him as a pretender Diver stand in.

In case anyone is wondering, Arcee has a retooled Blurr shield from which detaches and becomes her backpack which gives her signature back kibble.

They're not going to retool anything else for the figure outside of the head. If you think Nautica looks like a man it's really going to be no different from arcee.

But hey between Blurr, Brainstorm, SDCC Brainstorm, Nautica, and Arcee you're just one short of a full Autobot Seekers team.

Definitely getting Beachcomber and probably getting Jazz and Starscream.

>>6433840
Devastator, or Scoop? Because Scoop picking a fight with Trypticon is something I might pick up a comic to see.

>>6433409
Beachcomber, Dreadwind, and Dreadwing for sure.
Still debating on Rodimus because I fucking hate that I have to already replace my TR Hot Rod when I was already hunting down the Rodimus TM.
If Rodimus, and Jazz get repainted into something else I want like RID Optimus, the Eurobots, or Lightspeed I'm getting them.

Fucking sucks that this is the first wave, though; knowing my country's retailers, the only ones who make discounts here, they will only stock this and then I'll have to pay US full retail plus 10 to 15 dollars more for anything I actually want like it happened with wave 4 of TR.

>>6433847

Devastator.

>>6433837
It's Leinad with the 'e', you see it in OPs pic

>>6433409
I'll look at Beachcomber if I see him in store and if he looks nice enough I'll pick it up.

Get:
-Buster and Hydra
-Rodimus Prime

Pass:
-Skullgrin (I wanted Pretenders, but this isn't an improvement, at least make them Legend size with some decent articulation)
-Starscream (looks goofy, might get it if Thundercracker looks better)
-Jazz (doesn't look that impressive, and while he's a combiner, I don't have anyone to give him to)

Im still wondering how this is supposed to work with other toys, there doesn't seem to be any 5mm pegs. From what we know so far it sounds like it'll fit PotP Voyager arms and that sounds quite limited.

>>6433868
There is, it's between the legs. The part that splits him open is above it.

I think it might be able to slot into combiner ports. It has grooves above the ankles.

>>6433789
I hope so. That's my one gripe so far is that he's leader sized and not voyager. Galvatron's going to be 5'11 and Rodimus is going to be 6'0.

I wonder how Takara will deal with this line. I can see them continuing the Titan Master line like they did before (vehicle/decoy with deluxe or larger, legends with a head), and while they'll probably stick the Decoy/Pretender with it's original coloration (like the recent trend with Ramhorn and Repugnus), I'm not sure if the TM's will end up gaining faces or keep the spark gimmick.

There's also the fact that the deluxes and voyagers are also meant to work as combiners, so will they release them in combiner box sets or sell them alone in their legends line?

>>6433879
>POTP Galvatron, with Megatron inner robot

You're welcome, Hasbro.

>>6433720

same, a Dai Atlas from that mold would be perfect.

though i hope they retool it if they make him.

>>6433882
Takara does not release the $5 size class individually (TM vehicles and now PM Decoys), but it sounds like many of the "prime sparks" will be under the $5 class. Will they be packing all 13 prime sparks with other larger figure or will they ignore the primemaster concept altogether?

>>6433801

Honestly, who cares? The Japanese continuity reads like some shitty fanfiction and is full of "AND THEN X DISAPPEARED FOREVER FOR NO REASON, THE END" style endings or openings. They even outright skip releasing shit because it doesn't fit whatever cockeyed view of things they have. I half wonder if Hasbro is doing this line just to drive them to autistic fits trying to retcon it to fit whatever the fuck is their madeup shit continuity.

The only good part of it has been the comics, and mostly because those trigger retards for daring to be cute and fun.

>>6433891
I'm guessing they'll ignore the Prime Master concept, but will keep the Matrix and develop on why multiple characters have one (probably to reference the creation of the Energon Matrix in the far future of Japanese G1.

The Pretenders will probably lose the spark gimmick and gain faces.

>>6433856

yup.

and still no Scrapper returning.

>>6433895
If they do box sets, they might include new toys in some of them. With the Starscream mold, UW Leokaiser is a strong possibility, and the new armor gimmick could work as a new breast force gimmick.

>>6433898
You'll see him again when IDW ends the comic like Chronicles of Narnia, everybody dies and goes to robot heaven and all the characters who've died are there.

>>6433899
Oh hell, it might work.
>deluxe armor has TM, each breast force member comes with TM vehicle that's close to their animal, or gets retooled to match
>When deploying, they'll just have the vehicle and TM combine with each other

>>6433821
Scoop was put in the comics because the toy was made and Hasbro wanted him to have a role in it for the pack in comics.

>>6433904
Well yeah, but he'd shown up before with a completely different personality and religion.

>>6433902

They don't have enough pages to put in all the dead characters. Remember, it's canon that only Iron Hide and Alpha Trion remain of all the known 'bts.

Is there any way to pull off the rubber parts on Skullsmasher's head?
I removed the rubber piece on the lower jaw but the rubber pieces on the head and upper jaw are stuck.

>>6433908
That was rectonned recently when Dark Cybertron destroyed Gorlam Prime, the world Ironhide saw in his vision. It's a major part of why he's so depressed after that event, because he was so certain it was going to happen, only for it all to come crashing down.

>>6433908
I thought that future wasn't real, or got rewritten, or some such shit that made Ironhide uncertain about things. It's been a while since I picked up those comics though.

>>6433865
Correct. Havent tried frosted ultra detail yet, but it seems hi-def acrylate is the only one that's good.
Unfortunately you pay about 10 dollars plus for a single legends scale head sculpt.
Bigger objects have insane prices.
Make sure you really want to start on this, because it also requires some modding skills and might go completely pear-shaped on your first try.
Weapons usually require no modding or painting, so you might want to try those first.
Im making my own Freeway and Moonracer with headsculpts I ordered there. It's kinda scary disassembling an old toy and customizing it. But it's also a lot of fun.

>>6433903
>TM's have animal emblems instead of faces

>>6433907
The only time Scoop showed up before he was getting a new toy was in Stormbringer and he barely said anything. There wasn't anything even established for him to be "completely different".

So I just noticed TR Optimus/Laser Prime, and the Bumblebee/Roadburn molds have some defects.

Laser is minor, the window boob plate isn't aligned correctly and if you flip it without being careful, the first headlight at the top left will be deformed a bit.

Roadburn/Bee's section that connects the head and arms to the rest of the body is really misaligned. That black rectangle pin connection to the arm/head section is a bit misaligned and while not that noticeable in robot mode, it causes issues while transforming to vehicle mode, leaving a few areas with small gaps or with minor issues tabbing in.

That's pretty much what I was thinking, just make Megatron a tank that doubles as a huge turret for another tank. The best part is he's had the Matrix so it wouldn't feet out of place.

It's too bad the only Leaders with Matrixe's probably just going to be Thunderwing, Ultra Magnus, Optimus, Star Saber, and maybe Deathsaurus. I also want to say Grimlock but that would be crazy.

Case in point. Nor Cal guy here. Been reading tons of reports of TLK Megs in LA area. Finally get a chance to go down there, and the stores have like 8 Grimlocks each and nothing else.

Congrats Hasbro. You failed spectacularly at milking more pennies out of old molds, and at the same time prevented yourself from profitting from a new toy that people actually like.

>>6434144
I knew I should have picked up Cyclonus when he was everywhere. He'd look great with those new limb bots.

>>6434015
I dunno, I'd actually call it pretty likely. Nobody was expecting the Liokaiser set, especially not for Hasbro to release it in the west.

Basically, I think HasTak is somewhat following third party and looking at the characters coming out of it. Liokaiser was revealed basically at the tail end of CW, almost seemingly last minute which is after TFC had started putting Hades out and now TFC is working on their own Road Caesar that folks are getting excited about. I'd say it's pretty plausible that we'll see a RC box set at some point during the PotP line, especially because it takes very little effort to do repaints.

>>6434202
The problem with RC is he's a 3 member team and his combination is weird. It could work, but they'll have to figure out how to make the third member (probably leader, he'd be too small as a voyager).

>>6434211
They could probably do it with the standard CW "tech". Two leg bots and then the torso's legs extend and become the arms. Who knows.

>>6434183

Huh.

I just got a shipping notification for MPM Prime.

>>6434214
The best way I thought about it was by having 2 booster pods in vehicle mode that can detach and become arms by using ports.

The biggest issue is that the toy would essentially be identical in terms of parts forming, and I'm not sure everyone would like that.

>>6434224
Yeah that's a pretty cool idea actually. They could just go on the top of the car or the back of the individual bot mode. And in a line of power up armor it would make sense.

>>6433916
Oh, I'm not that guy.
I just wanted to check for the time I wanted to order something from them. No offense but I don't understand the ongoing race for more gril robots.

well, LK was a 6 member team and none of the members were a dino bird. I could see them pulling similar liberties with RC. Like I said, it's very little work to put together a repaint as an homage to/reinvention of an older character.

The main question would be, if they're going with the standard 5 member team, what is the torso going to be? Are they just gonna repaint the Prime/MM mold because it's a road vehicle or is there going to be a voyager-sized carbot coming that they can repaint?

Not really. Better than that garbage, but he still suffers from awkward kibble on his shoulders and limited articulation due to needing o be so flat. He also has to have a chunk of screen for the shield and a Laserbat to complete the altmode. The tablet isn't even that good, unless you don't mind it looking like you dropped it several time.

Point is they're novelties, and they aren't worth more than novelty price, which is well below what they will actually cost.

>>6434211
The two dekuxes become the feet. Their extra armor will be the fists for Road Ceasar. The Voyagers all come with these huge gauntlet accessories. Design them to be the owner arms. Voyager only needs to form the torso, head and upper arm /shoulders.

It limits its redeco value, but it's certainly possible.

>>6434330
>>6434351
It's a bit of a mixed bag for me. I like it when toys come packed in vehicle mode because that means they're less likely to have any plastic bent in the package, but coming in robot mode usually lets you check for QC a lot better.

The only thing I completely hate is when a toy comes mistransformed. MPM Bee looks fucking broken out of the box and you have to transform him fully one way or the other before you can appreciate him at all.

>>6433678
What I want:
>Bat"man" head
>Deluxe Transmetal Body
>Optimal Armor that also turns into a jet and tank like thing for him to ride in
More than likely:
>Matrix of Leadership in BW's style that sits in the cockpit of the Optimal Armor (cockpit can also house other heads/matrixes or Titanmasters)
>Gorilla with metal bits deluxe
>Optimal Armor that just makes a base

the cloudraker walgreens set has started to leak but word was the other previously exclusive boxed twins are scheduled for a release later on this year. this other twin set is likely to be either toysrus or target exclusive

>>6434337
The clone is the weakest figure in the set if you ask me. Not because he's a Legends figure, but his transformation is so boring and it transforms into a bunch of shapes. If they included a repaint of another Autobot car, maybe I'd feel something more. Like a snazzy Wheelie as Hubcap or Brawn as Outback. But I just feel underwhelmed.

I think the only thing I really dislike about MPM Bumblebee is head articulation. Because of the downward angle of the chest he can't really look up without moving the entire body, and looking left and right results in the head being tilted kind of weirdly. He really should have had a ball joint neck.

One will be the key to vector sigma i bet
Another the heart of darkness
Primal and bw megs might just have spark cores

Hell, one of them might be that Dark Spark nonsense from the 3rd game. I could also see Solus Prime having a hammer with a cavity in the face for her Forge

Why not get the Hasbro reissue coming out soon that's weighed down by accessories instead of metal?

This.

Prepare to be disappointed in PotP Deluxes and Voyagers then.

>>6434414
>Card of a master

Don't tell me this is going to be in the last wave of TR but it is actually supposed to be prime master. Like the few cassette legends showing up in CW before TR Blaster even is announced.

>>6434732
it's probably a boxset.

thunderwing and rodimus from the strength/speed boxsets are listed in the cereal as proving ultimate strength/speed boosts while Ultra Magnus is listed there for ultimate intelligence and Scorponok for ultimate firepower.

Except for the Siege of Cybertron boxset I guess. Most dealers here got it in this week for SGD160. I'm still not sure if I should get it, I'm not feeling the impulse for any of the molds in that set.

Dotm megatron
Dotm voyager ironhide
HA bee
fireburst prime
which one is the best pick? all $20

>>6434967
I just want a box of nothing but the marshmallows, to me the cereal pieces are just lightly iced cardboard.

Also fuck you you bastard, I'm craving lucky charms now and its 3am.

>>6434974
Megatron or Sky Hammer are pretty good.
Never got Optimus because I never found the Fireburst version at a good price and its proportions are weird anyways.
All I remember of that one Ironhide is that its arms are shit, the chest is tricky to lock, and the legs are really long.

>>6434974
I always see people saying that Ironhide there is one of the better ones, and I have no idea where that comes from as it looks like shit and has weird articulation. Megatron is the only other one I own there and he's pretty alright, wish we had a Leader version though.

>>6434330
> Am I the only one that absolutely hates it when a transformer comes packaged in robot mode?
Only when he comes packaged with instructions starting from alt mode.
*glares at Toys 'R Us Smokescreen*

>>6434426
I dunno, can he still fit in Minimus Boringus?

>>6434993
You're thinking of the Leader DOTM Ironhide.
That's one of the best movie Ironhides.

>>6434687
Oh really? I flat out ignored the BH release but that still makes a lot of sense. I'm still laughing pretty hard that I was at least right about the characters being renamed.

Finally getting MP10, what am I in for?

>>6434684
I have the red one coming in mail from china. This is actually my first transformer ever. It just looked SO good in reviews.

I decided I will collect ONLY knockoffs. More to act as a fiddle around toys while I work from home. Also collecting knockoffs saves me money and prevents me from wanting to be a completionist (usually when I buy a figure in line I need to have them all, unless theyre KO).

I fully get where that's coming from, I've got both figures, but I have seen people praise that Voyager for some reason. Maybe it's the cannon he comes with.

>>6434974
Megatron and Skyhammer. Best altmodes and articulation.

I've noticed that TR Windblade seems to be better in hand than on her stock photos. Is she actually worth buying, /tfg/?

>>6435290
I'd say Tlk Megatron for voyagers and Triggerhappy for the deluxes and for Leaders I'd go with Sky Shadow.

>>6435290
Trypticon definitely. Who doesn't love a Transformer that will break the first time you move its legs?

>>6435290
Per line?

MP: draw between Primal-Artfire
Gen: Takara Blurr, Triggerhappy and his moldmates in a close second place.

Honorary mention to Trypticon for being better than FortMax even with his hip issues.

>>6435188
>Forced female characters
I like girl-robots and used to collect the rare example of them before our current fembot-heavy era. I'm alright with it, gimme some of those IDW lesbian robots Hasbro, I'll take a Nickle too while you're at it.

Quick revision! I just noticed that Rod's Matrix was holding a Prime Master, and not the classic Matrix core. Whether Cloudburst or Vector actually show up in the first wave we still don't actually know.
