So then go to the 3rd party general and shit up their threads instead. If you're not interested in anything Hasbro makes, why are you even here?

>>5351425
They don't really care. Usually they don't have a side in tak vs has. They just want to stir up shit.

So I decided to swap the weapons of Off-Road and RID Fracture. I feel Fracture's weapon is perfect for Off-Road. OR has that sort of samurai vibe that I feel deserves something more samurai-esque than that ax he came with.

Sadly the ax isn't any shade of purple on Fracture, but it still works well. Much better than the stock weapon since they decided to give him stupid open hands for a weapon that has a handguard.

So am I wrong in thinking that if I just cut down the trapezoidal shapes and the other bit on the bottom of Brawl chest, that the waist section would fold flat? Like it seems like it should?

Because it looks like it would work.

>>5351425
>>5351428
>not sucking Hasbro's dick = wanting to stir up shit.

This entire argument started because your crowd couldn't accept some guys opinion that legends Groove sucked and then people takings sides based on that. Really having to white knight for a toy and then calling us for stirring up shit by supporting the OP is ridiculous.

>>5351606
That's all that occurs with this brand war. Usually the takara "supporters" don't even give a shit. It is literally done to make others angry. It's very childish on both sides.

For some reason my post got deleted off the other thread despite it being about Transformers toys? Well, whatever. This threads alive though.

Got my Combaticons today! I always forget how meaty Deluxes look on my shelf VS reviewer vids and shit. Still don't have an Onslaught though. Waiting for that price drop to his MSRP is like nails on a chalkboard for me.

Brawl's funky waist doesn't look as bad in person, and thankfully, mine isn't floppy. His right arm side...Peg...Thing. Whatever joint it is, is a bit loose though. And his legs are a little looser than I'd like. Same with Swindle. And Vortex. And Blastoff. In fact, all of their legs are a bit loose. Not sure is this is QC gone wrong or if they're supposed to be like this. Either way, they're all getting some futureshine.

Also got the PE PC04 for Menasor, and it looks good. And some Tamashii Act 5's, which are awesome.

>>5351641
I really dislike the paint apps Hasbro had for the Combaticons. The paint is way too faithful to the g1 toys. The worst offenders are probably Brawl and Vortex (and Swindle in the lack of paint in some areas). The only one that was alright 7/10 was Onslaught.

Rest of them had other problems. For example Swindle is now way too bulky and probably now the largest of the four. He probably would be better served instead using the First Aid/Offroad mold. And Blast-off's alt-mode isnt close to his original now.

G1 Swindle was a chunky motherfucker though. He was literally a squat brick with twiggy little arms and a pinhead.

>>5351661
>He probably would be better served instead using the First Aid/Offroad mold.
No. That mold has already been used 3 times before him and is about to get a fourth. Its boring and overused. The mold used is a good mold. Leave it.

>And Blast-off's alt-mode isnt close to his original now.

>>5351641
>>5351661
goddammit, i want shockwave

>>5351672
nearly every G1 toy is a squat brick. But in every piece of media associated with G1 he's the shortest and wimpiest looking one because he relies on jewing people and cunning rather than strength.

A redone FirstAid/Offroad would actually be closer to the G1 toy. The Rook-Swindle is trying to go for g1 cartoon/comic look with the chest deco going for the front of the jeep look that was in the cartoon-comic continuity.

>>5351679
So what? The helicopter has been done twice before and they used it for Vortex. The same for the Slingshot/Fireflight mold. And Onslaught himself was a dual use mold shared with Hotspot.

Yes, I am, I'll admit it. But Bruticus is totally one of my favorites and I had hoped to have him in time for Christmas. Lack of Onslaught appearing with the rest of his wave unfortunately stripped me of that, but hey, at least I got the other Combaticons for MSRP, and totaling the shipping, it came out to less than if I'd waited and looked for them in person due to gas costs and me living in nowheresville.

In fact, it's almost always cheaper for me to pay a few bux shipping than to actually toy hunt in person unless what I'm looking for is a ton of stuff.

>>5351940
Never.
Beast wars toys are fine and don't need updates.

The only beast wars toys that NEED updates are the show characters indroduced in season 1. Their original toys are fine as toys, but they look nothing like the show models.
characters introduced from season 2 onward were mostly toy accurate. I'd like a new rampage though.

That would be the fault of the show, not the toys

Takara to display as individual robots

Their white prime redeco would most likely be a star convoy homage, so it'll be a...differently painted red prime using white's head using the autobot B team comprised of Smokescreen Hoist Wheeljack and Hound.

If not then another set of new bots who are repaints with new heads if Grand Galvatron has taught us anything.

Just a theory, remember, this isn't hasbro.

To be fair where you live can make a huge difference.
I live in a 15 mile radius of 3 walmarts, 2 targets(one is a 10 minute walk from my apartment) and a Toys R us
Make it a 30 mile radius and you can add 4 more walmarts another Target, another Toys R Us and a Kmart

So yeah all I have to do is hurry up and wait. However some of these other anons don't have any of the stores an hour a away or more. Or they just have the one Walmart/Target in the area and that's it. So Im not going to be telling strangers on the internet they are impatient because my options must be their options.

>>5352343
I have 2 walmarts and 2 targets within 10 minutes of drive. There are also two Toys R Us in reach.

I don't really expect to find anything good in those places though. They haven't really stocked anything new at all, even though I know for sure at least one full combiner set has been sold recently.

And when it comes to Toys R Us... well, in most cases it's more expensive than buying online.

>>5352343
Some of these anons are asswipes, they only look at the immediate picture and judge others accordingly.

I'm in Australia, I got 3 stores 5mins drive from my house that sell tf's, all out of stock and are slow/showing inaccurate stock counts, further 15 and that store is downsizing their range, another 10 ontop of that store has older combiner wars waves, then 40mins to a toyrs R us where the staff don't even know they have a TF section (I found it, asked "got any more m8" and he kept walking past the damn section, bloody blind), there is a department store chain that has some but they're about to restock.

Then add about 2 hours into the city where within an hour's walk (public transport sucks so once in I huff it) 4 chains that my local mall had (the one thats 5 mins drive) have REMOVED their tf sections apart from the larger department store chain which...surprise surprise, awaiting a restock.

All I've found of the newer wave in all of these stores are 1 pipes, 2 chop shops, 2 buzzsaws, and a shockwave missing the peg so a combiner can hold it, reports of a chain in a really bad suburb has ONE OF EACH combaticon (can't even attempt to go, work hours prevent me from going) but this is it.

All other stores have are wave 2 legends, some minicons from RID and maybe 1 or 2 RID warrior class with some trickles of battlecore optimus prime with a total of 3 CW devastators.

TF hunting in Australia hurts, damn shitty distribution, when they do restock it'll be gone because CHRISTMAS

>>5352355
That sounds exactly the same as it is in America.

>>5352366
There has been alot of timely specials I admit but when those happen scalpers get in, seen a few selling "complete" combiner sets.

Anyway a regular deluxe can be up to $39aud, or 28.23us, but that's from a comic book store that imported them from elsewhere (only place where I found the cobra redeco of powerglide too, $25aud, fucking hell).

But the usual price is 29aud, 20.99 which toys R us and myer chains sell for.

Kmart here is our best when a sale isn't on with 25aud or 18.10usd, leader classes no one gives a shit since most big chains only carry megatrons of both flavors (shelf warming) with the odd seeker repaint in specialty shops that gauge ($79aud-89aud for megatrons but anything else goes up to $120).

Legends are $19aud everywhere apart from sales.

>>5352372
Well good, looks like we've caught up to you in more ways than one.

But now that I think about it, maybe the star wars crap is what's holding up things, hasbro would want the more "in now" brand to win, right?

>>5352366
Anywhere not States has it bad
It's why you get so much Hasbro/Takara fights
Because to a US citizen it's usually 50% less to buy a Hasbro toy than get a Takara toy of the same mold. But just about everywhere else it's more like it 10%~20% cheaper at best. So to state side it's a huge difference while say the UK your paying extra for shipping and nothing else.

Clearly Transformers is a serious topic of discussion.

>>5352703
Even Cirno thinks this is too stupid.

How much is the Botcon box set if I just want it? I've heard you can just order it and not go to the con and I kind of want it because of Tarantulas. If it's $500 just like the primus package I'll just not bother and get Grand Galvatron

>>5352723

Non attendee package is the same as the attending package.

I think its marginally cheaper to get a bagged set if you can find someone to buy it for you who is going to the con. You have to buy them at the con after buying the full package.

>>5352730
Well fug me. I kind of want the set for nostalgia but $500 is just too much for me right now.

The showel also becomes a claw. Yeah, it uses everything. The little gun for the crane guy also stores in its body.

Thoughts on Grand Galvatron?

Better than any Funpub idea.

>>5353035

Hoping it means a full set of CW Seekers and Elites is in our future. Then I could have my CW Cyclonus fighting my Superion, two jet combiners going at it.

Color-wise, he looks cool.

>>5353050

Oh, and the Starscream of the set is probably going to be in a billion pieces about a year from release. Clear plastic is not the best thing to try and make a sturdy thing thats supposed to turn on a very heay ratchet.

I think it'll be fine given that the combiner peg isn't clear plastic.

I hate clear plastic, Just make the windows black or blue.

>>5353050
the coneheads are called the elites?

But everything around that peg is. I think it might crack and break honestly.

>>5353068

Seeker Elites, or Elite Seekers, yeah.

>>5353063
if you think about it... this is a better toy than Classics Starscream, despite being a combiner

Same deal with CW Mirage, he improves on his classics toy as well

>>5352817

So does this mean that Botcon 2016 and the Predacon Combiner are still happening or not?

I wouldn't put it past FunPub to say absolutely nothing about any of this and the site to just up and vanish one day.

>>5353071

All the more reason I hope we get a regular version (and all his recolors, plus the coneheads).

>>5353138
The classics seeker isn't that good by today's standards. It's aged quickly. The mirage mold was fine but has completely not mirage proportions like the cw version has.

>>5353143
That's why it's called redun

Also the cw barely looks like a seeker.

>>5353144
It's a jetformer. It looks more like a seeker than a lot of other versions of starscream out there.

>>5353070
There's no extreme fiction on any of those parts. You're see if you opened that figure.

>>5353070
>But everything around that peg is. I think it might crack and break honestly.

Considering there are still Ghost Starscreams from 2001 still around I don't think there's much to worry about as long as someone moves the arm carefully.

>>5353154
The classics still looks better. And more like the cartoon model.

>>5353162
It's also a brick that requires partsforming to transform completely.

>>5353073
They're continuing on for another full year. They have one more convention to shit out.

>>5353168
There's no partsforming on the Classics seeker mold. And has more than decent articulation. Not amazing, but acceptable.

It's bad articulation. It's as basic as it can get. It was behind the times even then.

>>5353196
The cw has only marginally better articulation.

Also
> my opinion is a fact
It is a fact that the classics is closer to the cartoon model, which is what I want.

>>5353205
>marginally better
Yeah. Okay. Keep thinking that.

>>5353175
It's at best functional, at worst severely restricted. No waist, no thighs, no wrists, no biceps, no ankles. The shoulders and hips are pretty heavily restricted, as well. And that wasn't normal; bar maybe Rodimus, I can't think of any Classics figure that was as limited in articulation. Once you get into Universe 2.0, which featured double-joints on a semi-routine basis, it's not even funny.

>>5353209
Have you actually owned the skydive mold?

It isn't too much of an improvement.

>>5353235
It's a lot better than the classics seeker mold.

I caved and bought Hotspot since I managed to find one that was only $20 locally. Seemed like a decent deal compared to what he goes for online.

I like him so far, I really need to get 3 smaller robots so I can fully combine him. All I have is him and Ironhide.

Also... Man, they really really need to release a Fire Convoy repaint of this guy, I'm debating customizing him.

Use him exclusively in gun mode. The missing arm won't be that visible depending on how you pose him.

>>5353287

>>5353143
CW molds aren't very good by today's standards, either. What's your point?

Transformers from '09-'11. What else is worth comparing to?

>>5353620
Isn't it leader class though? Plus the forced third mode makes blaster look weird.

>>5353625
This. It seems like people forgot the fucking awesome general quality we saw during the RoTF years. And even older CHUG figures, they only seem bad by comparison because their engineering is outdated. Modern CW toys seem bad because they're cheap and hollow, without ACTUALLY being cheap, unfortunately.

>>5353621
>>5353625
Yeah. We expect the same level of engineering of those with only 2 modes for these deluxes that need to have four modes with one of the modes being an articulated arm, another a vehicle, another a part of a leg, and another being an articulated robot! We need perfection. We need to have Springer level quality on all of them and not raise the prices at all. Its a very realistic goal.

>>5353071
>this is a better toy than Classics Starscream

not really. At least classics starscream doesn't have a shitty yellow block of plastic that's supposed to be a fake cockpit and his wing/nosecone kibble is actually in the right position

>>5353634

They don't feel cheap to me. Maybe I've got different standards though.

>>5353641

Yeah, it is kind of odd Leader CW Starscream doesn't have the standard fold down to reveal the head jet front, but I guess it's a result of him being a remold of Jetfire.

Personally I don't mind it, or care if it's fake, but it does seem an odd design choice. Honestly, if they just upscaled Legends Seekers, and gave them more articulation/detailing (thigh swivels, replace the solid plane nose area with an open clear canopy, upper arm swivels, a few missiles molded under the wings, etc) they'd probably be perfect Deluxe's.

>>5353648

I need a Feral Rex too but I don't know if I should get the Sir Toys KO that came out recently. The MMC is just too expensive but since I started collecting the FP Dinobots they will fit well with my CHUGs.

>>5353799

Is that the Jinbao KO? It looks almost too big. Like, almost Devastator big. Plus the faces look off, and some parts are differently colored or not quite the same. It's monstrously cheaper though, but it's also shit made in some chinese sweatshop so I'm thinking the quality is gonna be pure shit on something so huge and complicated.

>>5353811
Yeah the Jinbao I think.

>>5353830

They're all over eBay. Some of the closeup shots on them have me feeling wary. I'm hoping we see some reviews on them.

>>5353609
Honestly I wanted the Rook mold to be used, he shouldn't get the combiner torso treatment unless we're getting cassette limbs/legend accessories. Plus he'd make a good limb for Galvatronus.

>>5353741
Considering my shipments of UW Defensor and Devastator finally arrived, I'm good until MP Ironhide rolls out.

Considering theres only a week left, yeah I guess I'm done for the year.

Interesting. It doesn't look that bad, but the individual figures look off. The heads are way too big, too. Still, $150 VS over $500, assuming the plastic and QC isn't complete shit.

Waiting for detailed reviews.

>>5353287
To be honest. The classics seekers are still good aesthetically. If you don't mess around with your toys you don't really give a shit about articulation.

>>5353634
The CW toys aren't blow away your face amazing but I think the limb bots are charming in their simplicity, and work for what they need to do. I think if they did this back in 2009 It'd be mostly the same thing but bigger in size. I want you to imagine designing several figures that are meant to be essentially quad changers that are compatible with one another, and are similar enough in limb mode to not make the resulting combiner not look like a total clusterfuck.

>>5353903
>I want you to imagine designing several figures that are meant to be essentially quad changers that are compatible with one another, and are similar enough in limb mode to not make the resulting combiner not look like a total clusterfuck.

Not to mention stable. They're good at their jobs as limbs or feet.

But to play devil's advocate, most foot modes are literally just "vehicle mode except flip the front end back".

>>5353909
Still better than energon combiners. Where you didn't even have that, you just plugged on the vehicle wholesale and gave it weird candy colored feet.

>>5353901
Seems like they're releasing an "upgrade" kit for it since from what I read in the thread there was a big gripe about the heads being too big and the hands in combined being too hollow and simple. So it means that the quality of that thing is decent if that is the only thing they are really complaining about.

Howdy, first off what you're looking at is a work in progress.

>Black power prime

I have grand scourge in private warehouse, he'll be the base, and after looking at my collection of deluxe spare limbs (fucking yay local store got the combaticons in, got 3 of 6 pic related) but now the hard part is limb distribution.

The initial plan was Galvatronus with IDW originals (take off, offroad, alpha bravo, rook) but thanks to based takara I'm getting grand galvatron making the old build obsolete, TRYING to make hasbro cyclonus a stand alone since I actually like the figure.

The plan for my black power prime is simple, military theme with dark colors with equal factions mixed in, swindle and hound will act as skates, hoist as a leg, hasbro brawl as another leg...

Problem is alpha bravo does not work with the theme, I really don't want to get vortex as I want validation to get the eventual UW bruticus, but that'd leave alpha bravo on his own and offroad will break the faction count.

So, how would YOU construct a black power prime, what limbs should I use?

Further more, should I build Galvatronus anyway and just double up on limbs, or just be a cheap ass and use what I have?

Brawl is acting as a skate just to see the effect since I was informed of a slight height difference, apart from the peg connection not being as tight as swindle it works.

Anyone want to help or am I asking for too much?

>>5354074
>offroad will break the faction count

Ignore this, gonna make him an arm/foot, that's 3/6, hard part is fitting more autobots in

>>5354070

Brawl's going to never not be a leg so I'm not too caught up on that.

>>5354083
Think he means takara might find a fix for that.

Though evidence suggest he'll get a repaint with all the focus on a proper blastoff

>>5354085
Because we definitely need a shuttle more than we need a figure with glaring flaws fixed.

>>5354089

I mean they fixed pretty much everything wrong with Devastator so I wouldn't be surprised if Brawl is retooled.

>>5354092
>wrong with devastator
The difference here is that Hasbro devastator wasn't full of flaws the way brawl is. Hasbro devastators just had things we didn't like. Takara added a few more bits of articulation and paint. They weren't fixing anything. Just adding.

Brawl needs to be fixed.

Well, while hasbro has a fair bit of control its still the same designers in charge, otherwise brawl becomes an oddity that no market would want, most I can expect is a simple tweak much like motor master.

Mine seems to work fine, the waist is an annoyance but its not like I'm shaking him just to his ab flop.

>>5354092
This is true, I eagerly await what may happen.

>>5353018
Usually you stick on the back the part from the one forming the arms, while the other two are handheld as weapons.

>>5354108
You're not getting the difference between the issues we had with devastator and what's wrong with brawl.

Brawl is fucked up. Hasbro constructions aren't. Yeah they aren't what we feel they could've been, but brawl has serious problems that aren't just design choices.

I was considering using 4 Blastoffs for Cyclonus' limbs

So we've had Built to Rule, Kre-O, and Constructabots.

Will we ever have a line that can perfect buildable transforming Transformers?

>4 blast off's

I'm guessing you're going for color/alt modes without any sense of unity/made up story then?

I'm honestly tempted just to complete my galvatronus, grab another rook (since my rook when to defensor) and just go

>blast off
>alpha bravo
>offroad
>rook

As per my original plan, I still want my black power prime though, right now I got this settled

>Swindle skate
>Hound skate
>hoist Foot
>Brawl Foot

Still working on arms, could get a hasbro airraid I guess (because black) and um...

Maybe I should get that hasbro vortex, though 3 combaticons just really annoys me with a total of 4, and lowering desire levels for UW bruticus.

I hate my picky nature.

Hey Let’s take Jesus off the dashboard.
Got enough on his mind.
Is that the same IDW Roller?
Will this story connect with IDW?

>>5354169
Its IDW roller, but in honest speculation, I don't think it would seeing how these takara comics usually do the job of explain why they are as they are rather than connect.

It is pulling transformers from differing universes together afterall, shit won't bother armada or g1 much, nor shall IDW

>>5353903
>charming in their simplicity
That's what legends are for. Also there's a difference between "simple" and "cheap".

>>5354181
I'm not sure how you can make each limb figure unique in it's various transformations without the figures being needlessly fiddly. Geewun was the same way. Most I'd ask for is something to cover their legs when in arm form to get rid of the bony look. Another idea would be to make the forearm and hand a completely separate piece that form weapons ala Devastator, but I know that solution would start a whole new wave of bitching.

>>5353741

Saw MP Tracks posted in the worst TF thread, but I happen to think it's pretty cool.

I do not normally come here /toy/ as it isn't normally my thing.

But I have seen these "Combiner War" transformers in the shops and they look quite nice. I was hoping there would be an Optimus Prime but it seems one hasn't been released.

How are the Ultra Magnus, Megatron, Starscream and Devastator? I see Superion will come out as well.

I always wanted a big combiner like Superion as a kid, what are these guys like? And recommendations?

There's an Optimus Prime as a combiner chest-component but he's in the very first wave (this time last year) and can be difficult to find right now.

>>5354333
Magnus is one of favorites, he's just a lot of fun imo. I also really like Megatron, but opinions seem to be split on him. His shoulders are weird, though. As for combiners, I'd probably go for the unite warriors version of superion because good luck finding a quickslinger otherwise. Menasor is ok if you mod his legs, and the protectobots are my favorite. Although, bruticus is probably going to be pretty good. It may not be "collector friendly", but combiner wars is a fun line and all the scramble city limbs and torsos are fun to fiddle around with.

>>5352691
Oh you've given me an idea... Gotta see if he can hold the psp and cola bottle from the umaru nendo

>>5354336
Sorry, I guess I should have said, I am looking at the "Leader" and "Titan" classes.

So I was more wondering if we would get a large original looking Optimus with his truck part?

Oh and I am in the UK if that affects anything?

They are taking that ultra magnus you saw and retooling it into powermaster optimus prime. coming out next year.

>>5354356
Though it should be noted he is no longer a powermaster, he's a headmaster.

>>5354336
My ass he's difficult to find, retailers over ordered the fuck out the case with him and Silverbolt and the leftovers are shelfwarming hard.

>>5354167
Fug he is lmao

UW Battle Gaia and Guard City boxset when?

There's a part of me that hopes that Hastak repaints the Combaticons the same amount of times the original group did. I'd appreciate an urban camo version of Bruticus.

Optimus and Superion have been out a while.

Ultra Magnus is beautiful, but he can't hold his weapons worth shit due to how they made his hands. You need to tighten up his joints for his hands to hold anything. Pic related to the /toy/ approved method for everything, pledge with futureshine.

Megatron is also awesome as fuck, I'd recommend him. He's got a very G1 air about him (all the CW stuff does), he's large, he's impressive looking.

Superion, buy the Japanese release (Unite Warriors, or UW). Currently, the American release (Combiner Wars, aka CW) is being scalped to Hell and back. It's actually cheaper to buy the import of him. As a bonus, the UW version is also far more color accurate as well.

I only started my collection a while ago, but as far as the CW stuff ranks for me, Superion is by far the most stable/best of the lot, Defensor is in the middle, and Menasor is the least stable due to being really topheavy and the initial release of Motormaster's having bad hip joints.

Suffering

Has anyone here actually attempted to fix Brawl?
Because it's literally as simple as thickening a tab with a bit of glue/polish.

>>5354443
Yes and either you have to butcher it, sacrifice articulation, or try to cover it up with the combiner peg. Sometimes it's more than one of those options.

No, since after getting him, he doesn't look (to me) as bad as I thought he would, and thankfully mine isn't floppy in the middle.

If I did fix him, I'd do pic related.

Pic related is all it took to fix the connection issue for me.
Yes, the joint does look awkward but covering it with the combiner peg is an option. I move the peg down just one click myself. It bulks up the torso enough for my liking and still allows the figure to make use of the ab hinge.

>Those arms
Well look at that, a hollow piece of shit.

>Dear Gender Graduate,

>I did once attend a lecture, given by a Primax Cluster Arcee about this topic. In her home dimension, the war had ended early relative to most dimensions, but lasted long enough for Cybertron to open relations with several organic planets. Arcee was a biologist protoformed with a male frame, and sent to observe some of these worlds post-war. On one world they had gone onto, Arcee stumbled upon what organics call "gender dysphoria disorder" and studied this phenomenon closely. Originally Arcee was fascinated by the organics "transformation", but eventually realized her interested stemmed from her own transgender nature. Going back to Cybertron, she released a document on this, and soon many other Cybertronians took on her research. There were differences in how Cybertronians interacted with this new idea-the Decepticon Overlord, for example, is what some would call genderfluid. Others referred to themselves with feminine pronouns, but felt no need for reformatting, such as the Decepticon Howlback. And others experienced massive dysphoria, as Arcee did, a result of a disconnect by the programming for the brain chip and spark by Vector Sigma and the CNA of the body forms. Those who chose do do so underwent reformatting and replace bits a pieces of their genetic code to help the process along.

>As for the former, she did mention Archadis, a later day Predacon protoformed in a female body, as a transgender male. And let us not forget that there are entire streams with little concept of gender.

I'm looking on the tf wiki and came across this.

Archadis is one of three Beast Wars Neo toys whose designs were determined via a contest held by Japanese Television Magazine. The winning designs were revealed in the April 1999 issue. The other winning designs became Mach Kick and Bazooka. The original design that became Archadis was female.
