Despite taking pride in his ability to transport things, Astrotrain finds it difficult to continue his line of work at Decepticon Tera-Kura Co. now that he's a tiny Headmaster and can barely carry a couple of energon cubes. He demands a transtector, but Megatron explains that with Tarantulas and Devil Z out of the picture, the company can no longer build them. Astrotrain argues how important his function is to the Decepticons, only for Ultra Magnus to offer to transport cargo in his car carrier mode instead, effectively replacing poor Astrotrain. While drowning his sorrows, he runs into Tarantulas, who's escaped prison and is on the run, and agrees to hide him from the law... in exchange for a transtector.

Tarantulas finishes the new body, and is shocked when Astrotrain next orders him to mass-produce it. His plan is to form an Astro Corps by creating his own company and attracting other bodiless Headmasters from both sides by offering them free transtectors. With his new troops, he will then crush both Tera-Kura and Autobot Axalon and build his Astrotrain Empire!

The idea of Solus Prime being in the films as a major, non-human character does appeal to me quite a bit. It would be a nice way to integrate other parts of the franchise into the films and possibly bring Solus into the public eye and opening the door for a toy of her.

Grimlock's tunneling as a means of moving around unnoticed makes Galvatron's survival rather miraculous. I'm just imagining Galvatron booking it for the ship Optimus and the Autobots crashed, running through the woods like some sort of slasher victim. :lol It explains his name change, too...

*Galvatron shows up at the ship and grabs the nearest sword, transforming into his Knight form*

*Dinobots show up*

Grimlock: "You Galvatron?"

Galvatron: "No, I'm... Megatron."

Grimlock: "Er, okay. You know where he went?"

Galvatron: "To your mother's house."

"ME GRIMLOCK DESTROY!"

*Dinobots leave*

Galvatron: "... That was close."

Using his new body, he drops fliers all over the city, attracting the attention of Shūta Gō and Bullhorn, the last Headmaster Juniors who haven't found employment. They show up at the company alongside many others and, despite finding their new boss demanding absolute loyalty and threatening anyone who opposes him with death, accepts the job for the sake of the transtectors. The employees begin transporting cargo far and wide thanks to their shuttle modes allowing them to bypass traffic jams.
However, Shūta and the rest soon find themselves overworked, with Astrotrain refusing to let them rest, eat or go home. He reveals that they're not his employees but his slaves, and activates restraint devices that locks the Headmasters to their bodies. He then turns on Tarantulas and blasts him before sending his slaves to attack the Autobots as the first step towards his conquest of the Legends Universe and creation of his empire. Unfortunately, his plan backfires when the exhausted, starving Headmasters prove unfit for combat and begin collapsing—in fact, their bodies are so low on energy that the restraint devices deactivate! The Headmasters run off, leaving their transtectors crashing into Astrotrain and burying him. With his ambition in ruins, Astrotrain ends up using the last remaining transtector to run a commuting service instead.


Save for that last bit, that guess work I put up was pretty close.

As someone who knows nothing of the model train world, how impressive is this?

I see keywords like 20,000 and pristine so I know it's massive and possibly unique, but One Gauge?

Always enjoyed these little guys, which one did you just order OP?

I might be grabbing a Tamagotchi Mini that they're releasing this April, but I don't know if I should bother or not. Price point isn't too bad at least, but it'd be just like the original in terms of lack of games from what I understand.

I really liked the last thread, a lot of help and constructive criticism.

So I just got into modelling in December after getting pic related: an Airfix 1:76 Cromwell kit. It's pretty rough as it's my first attempt at modelling. Snapped the main gun trying to get it off the sprue, glued some parts on badly etc, got a bit heavy handed with the paint etc.
Tried to mix a green that's historically accurate (the kit came with a super light olive green, and I'm pretty sure British armor was even darker than what I've used) and I think it turned out okay.
With that said, I'd love some critique on this build!

TL;DR first build, talk shit or give advice if you wish.

Evening guys.
Is their any 1/32 or so scale humvees that are "Topless"? I'm going to make the convicts from dead rising and I need one in the scale. Also, if anyone knows of 1/48 tanks that are cheeper the combat crushers, I'd be interested in knowing about them.

Use funko poops.

At least more people might actually get your weird art project.

Couldn't you just make a vagina sculpture like most 'artists'?

Funkos are shit, I actually want this to be decent. A knock-off nendoroid is still at least ten times higher quality than a funko.
