Transformers General: Targetmaster Edition

>>5403671
For the line he's average. I still have one in box since I forgot I had it.

>>5403671
Well he doesn't come with a targetmaster if that's what your after.
He does have a nifty transformation and good articulation.

Part of the art work for Fortress Maximus a.k.a. "Metrople with new duds" leaked, and it seems he really will have the Master Sword.

>>5403671
Cyclonus is a more solid figure, but scourge has a lot more articulation.

I'd like scourge a lot more, but facial hair on transformers has always been kind of weird to me. Except in animated. Maybe because they seemed more like people in costumes with their designs.

>>5403690
I don't care for the character, but a massive sword sounds awesome.

>>5403719
>but facial hair on transformers has always been kind of weird to me
Yeah, I was initially reluctant at buying Scourge because the whole beard on him looked really weird and out of place on a TF. But the design is starting to grow on me, and I own RTS Wreck-Gar and I really enjoyed him- so I wanna give Scourge a chance, too. I adore his colors and his bot mode silhouette.

>they seemed more like people in costumes with their designs
Man, they did that a lot with the Season 3/'86 Movie guys, huh? A lot of them have those weird pastel colors, non-silver/grey faces, and abstract-ass altmodes. The toys for those guys suffered so much, man. Just look at poor, poor G1 Kup or Blurr.

Floro Dery wanted them to look "more human than human". He's an interesting guy. And those are only the designs that got approved.

>>5403732
He will be a blue Air Raid, Skydive has the right wings, but Air raid has better shoulder proportions.

>>5403755
Air Raid's better since it has a similar arm configuration for Leokaiser.

Man, Walky sure has no self-awareness, does he?

>>5403765
Noep!

>>5403728
I'll be glad when his source gets fired.

>>5403765
Walky chose to attack Dery out of jealousy, what do you expect from someone who befriends Jin Autismtome?

>>5403765
It's very upsetting the way the fandom treated Dery. he didn't remember every last precise detail of a show he worked on for two years in the 80's, and he got a little pissed when people who were shitting their pants in the 80's tried to tell him he was wrong. I mean,w ho wouldn't be pissed if someone tried to correct you on your own life experiences?

It's easy to say "Floro Dery is lying about coming up with the idea for a transforming planet, because this Diaclone sketch proves otherwise!". When in reality its just as likely he came up with the idea independent of that, and never saw the sketch.

>>5403775
the average Hasbro fan is mentally retarded. Upsetting, but not surprising.

Ok, that works. Still think it's weird the set doesn't give you two of the same plane, since you can't pull off the arm look with different shoulders.

>>5403783

>>5403796
That guy Quillfire really reminds me of Blot.

>>5403775
it's because Wanky thinks that his unfunny shit-filled wiki is somehow a big contribution to Transformers, moreso than the guys who created the franchise.

Shame no one will ever run him down in the Botcon parking garage.

>>5403796
Only if they fix sideswipes shoulders.

Welp, BBTS just put up an Onslaught pre-order for $25, so the moment that ships, I won't be able to buy Onslaught online.

>>5403806

Thats not a leak, thats a sales rep trying to drum up hype. A leak would be a full pic at the very least, or the toy in-hand from some chinese sweatshop worker.

Calling it now:
Breastforce-> Beastforce
Gaihawk-> Skyhawk
Killbison-> Blastbison
Hellbat-> Shadebat
Drillhorn-> (still) Drillhorn
Deathsaurus-> Dezarus/however japan romanized the name or Darksaurus


Also, was 2014 Generations the lowest point in Transformers?
>shitty, easily scratched paint on Cosmos
>shrapnel's loose mandibles

>whirl's fragile normal knees
>rhinox's insanely loose knees/hips
>waspinator's cracking shoulders
>rattrap's exploding shins
>skids's misassembled thighs/crosscut and skids barely being able to stand up

Say what you want about CW, but the only really glaring QC issues of the line have been Motormaster's shitty ratchets and Brawl's weird waist assembly.

>>5404011
>Also, was 2014 Generations the lowest point in Transformers?

no, that was whatever year those shitty FOC toys came out.

>>5404011

That was in g1.

Kilobison and Haltbat

>>5404026
Sounds like the person is on about quality control problems.

>>5404011
>Calling it now:
>Breastforce-> Beastforce

Good. Breastforce sounds like a terrible porno name about titty superheroes.

>Gaihawk-> Skyhawk

Gonna say they'll be lazy and just name him Guyhawk via romanizing him or something. Skyhawk sounds redundant.

>Killbison-> Blastbison

Sounds like a Megaman X boss.

>Hellbat-> Shadebat

No idea what they could call him. Draculabat for all we know.

>Drillhorn-> (still) Drillhorn

Doubt he's getting name changes, yeah.

>Deathsaurus-> Dezarus/however japan romanized the name or Darksaurus

No idea what he'll end up named, but that sounds plausible.

Does the package art book released a while back contain tech specs? I'd really like to see a collection of tech specs.

>>5404011
Both Ironhide and Blades are very prone to stress marks. Not sure why.

>>5404044

Probably the holes being too small/weapon pegs being too big. They're off in size just a bit for whatever reason.

>>5404044

So according to the Turd Party thread, third party companies have started making toys with sculpted on wheels that don't roll.

Of course people are insisting that wheels don't have to roll

Plane-Scourge goes well with space-jet Galvatron

>>5404019
>no, that was whatever year those shitty FOC toys came out.

This.

DESU, 2014 was my favorite year since the end of HFTD/RTS. We got a crazy variety of toys from all eras of Transformers, with build quality way above FoC and slightly above where we are right now with CW. Every toy fair and convention we got exciting new reveals that nobody could have predicted.

With cost-cutting continuing apace and a GEEWUNNER in charge of product development, I don't foresee us having as good a year again in a long, long time.

>>5404206
Aside from Hardhead, Skullcruncher, and Galvatron, and Eject, Titans returns seems very disappointing to me.

Most of the designs are either bland, or bad.

>>5404226
I think Blaster looks good, and I'm really excited for the inevitable Astrotrain from Sentinel.

>>5403800
Wait, seriously? LioKaiser won't be using the same jets for both arms? Holy shit, you're right. WOOOOOW. It's like they're intentionally shitting the bed. I give up. Fuck everything.

>>5404028
Heckbat.

>>5404226
Yeah it sucks that the only figures they're making have all already been shown. Every single one of them.

>>5404231
You really want a set that has 4 limb molds with 2 of them being the same mold a piece? Is this a lazy energon combiner now?

>>5404239
If they show something interesting later, then I'll change my mind, but so far, it's not looking that interesting to me.

>>5404230
I think his robot mode works, I'm apathetic to his base mode, and his boom box mode looks ridiculous. He's like a 6 out of 10 to me.

Soundwave on the other hand? Awful.

>>5403671
Gen Scourge is one of the best modern transformers, imho.
There is no exposed hollowness, robot and alt mode are pretty solid, and the wings open to store the guns.
I guess he's underrated but he's easily the best among cyclonus and galvatron.

Same 3d printed computron dude here. Would people be interested in a defensor upgrade aswell? Been thinking about doing a small run of upgrades, just wanna know who would be interested in this kinda stuff.

Main stuff I'd like to do:
>New headsculpt
>Two eye/glasses
>two mouth/facial expressions
>New crotch than attaches to ladder
>Pieces that add bulk to thighs
>G1 guns
> New blades rotors to emulate G1 look
>New blades lower arms to emulate G1 look
> G1 weapons

The Blades kit has been finished and I will post tomorrow if interested. I also have some additional ideas as well, but I'll hold those back. I'm just interested if I should do a run of these? Would people have the interest? P.E's upgrades are awesome and they would be similar to those, but with a lot more added in.

>>5404011
>but the only really glaring QC issues of the line have been Motormaster's shitty ratchets and Brawl's weird waist assembly.

The deluxe Arielbots were pretty bad.

>>5404346

This is probably more of a 3p general thing or a customs general thing.

This entire show and toyline is wasted potential so far imo.

>>5404482
as a leg, it thickens up the look quite a bit, which I actually prefer, especially on Defensor, who looks out of place with one skinny component. As an arm. it's really not too much different either.

Why do his elbow joints have to be pins? Why couldn't they be on ball joints so you could take them off and use them as bombs? How am I supposed to roleplay the end of WWII when I can't take the bomb off without fucking the toy?

>>5404609
Woah Woah. How did we to from elbows to wanting to fuck it?

>>5404614
Pins are difficult to get out, and they're even more difficult to get back in again. In order to remove the bombs for a bombing run, the pin would need to be removed. It would then be extremely taxing, if not literally impossible to get back in, ergo the toy would now be 'fucked'.

Same, I don't even care about Abominus, but Blot is cool.
Wish we had an Animated Blot toy, there's just this kickass custom

>>5404702
Hasbro could quite easily make an Abominus combiner by retooling Sky Lynx, then making two new molds, one for Sinnertwin and another to be used by Rippersnapper and retooled into Blot. Cutthroat could be an extremely heavy retool of an Aerialbot. The molds could then be used for Monstructor and possibly Predaking.

God fucking damnit if they do that in red and it's not RID Prime I will REEEEEEE like a REEEEtard.

Also people complaining about I think 3rd party hip armor on Defensor/Bruticus getting in the way of his legs, that's because his hip articulation is fucked due to it not being where his hips are visually.
I wonder if there are enough stupid customers that will buy stuff that doesn't really fix things on a flawed figure. I look at that and I go "No. You need to give me more."

wouldn't Normalfags want an RID Prime over Hosehead? Should you REEE that a obscure figure gets made?

>>5404766
Because Hasbro, silly goose.

I think I know why Scattershot got released next to Onslaught. Because another toy was planned, but it fell through, forcing them to make a last minute addition to fill out the wave. Since the Scattershot tooling existed for the planned Computron, they decided to use it for the replacement.

I have no proof at all and this is nothing but speculation, but it seems like a logical chain of events.

>>5404766
Im sorry but you are surprised that an obscure Japan only TF team is a bunch of retools here?
Hell we are lucky they gave them new heads

>>5404775
I wager it's less of it fell through and more of they didn't want the case to be just Onslaught.
As to why is a million dollar question since the current case ratio between Onslaught and his limbs are 4 to 1.

>>5404777
I'm confused
Do you mean by case as in the combaticons come in an assortment of 4 of each guy?

It's like seeing people call everyone Reddit on other boards. f you don't like something, you're too poor to buy it. If you think something is overpriced, you're too poor to afford it. If you complain about scalping, you're too poor to pay scalper prices.

The Transformers guys call the other Transformers guys poor, the 3P guys call the Transformers guys poor, the Anime figure guys call the 3P guys poor, and the 1/6 guys call the Anime guys poor.

It feels like everybody's trying to justify their spending habits by saying that everyone would buy the same things they do if they were rich enough.

Elitism, when you have money its an entitlement to solve all of the problems toy collecting has, don't like the deco of one toy, buy its more expensive japanese cousin, don't like the default configuration, buy 3rd party parts, don't like the figure at all, buy the third party, second one voices an argument about the price, no matter how logical, "you're a poor fag".

My wardrobe is overflowing on shit and I got called a poorfag because my mp seeker collection is based on stock hasbro versions I bought long after release over the takara ones.

You can't win with these people, hell I honestly believe they say it just to tick you off for the fun of it, wouldn't surprise me they just want to turn the wheels of drama since none of us can really claim we aren't poor fags other than words on a screen

>Elitism

It's pretty much this. In collecting, the more money you spend, the more hardcore you are. Somebody who spends less money than you isn't as committed. There's also the fact that if you suggest something is overpriced, it also implies that people who buy it are paying too much. Some people take that as you saying they're being stupid.

Having money > having the respect of nerds because you bought a bunch of shit

It's why I prefer emulation to real hardware. I get the games for free. Gamers don't like me for it? Fine. AVGN, Pat, AlphaOmegaSin, they all live in shitty houses because they blew all their cash on gaming crap, their collections are all thrown haphazardly onto cheap shelf boards attached with those crappy shelf brackets and their homes look like cruddy thrift stores piled with ugly junk. It's not even pleasing displays because it's loose cartridges with worn labels lined up in tight formations.

Gamers can thumb their noses at me for running emulators for all I care, I don't respect them very highly in return because they live like slobs surrounded by junk.

Same deal with toys- do you want respect of junk hoarders? Take that insult and wear it like a badge of honor.

No seriously, what the fuck were they thinking?

>>5405239
You should have disputed the payment with Ebay.

The toy was broken before you got it. There was no way you could have known, so the seller misrepresented his product to you.

>>5405264
They were probably thinking "When did nightbird ever use guns?"

Seriously, give the two guns over to another deserving bot, she can use both the swords and sai, problem solved.

Or, instead of shavng her hands, shave the handles of the guns down to match the sai. Problem double solved.

>>5405272
Unfortunately, it wasn't on Ebay. The site it was auctioned on doesn't take any responsibilities.
I just had to suck it up and accept that you sometimes have bad deals.

Well, I was pretty good with my toys as a kid, as evidenced by these headmasters still having their heads. It was my asshole parents who destroyed all of them by shoving them in an attic. All my G1, gone it seems. Dunno how this stuff escaped the attic, or the house sale of my grandma's, or anything.

And this is the last bit of it. Unfortunately, I found only one foot, and no fists. And of course the G2 Devy I had earlier doesn't have his chestplate, but he's otherwise nearly complete.

>>5405397

Woohoo Megazord's sword. I assume it's from the smaller version of the toy.

So Hasbro is finally starting to import CW Deluxe Groove just before the announce Computron so they can use Groove's mold for Afterburner without the nerds and autist acting like an angry mob from their basements

to be fair the design on misfire's targetmaster is pretty bad - its almost guaranteed to break unless you never ever transform it.

Probably online exclusive like Slingshot and Wildrider were.

>>5406045
I wonder if he'll keep all his clear plastics

>>5406045
I'm still skeptical about Deluxe Groove coming to the US, but it's possible Hasbro is holding out until the Combaticons and Takara's Shuttle Blast Off are fully released so they can release Groove alongside Blast Off, kinda like hoe they released Slingshot and Wildrider together.

>>5406080
If Afterburner was an indication, no.

>>5406080
>>5406086
Legends Shockwave used clear plastic, right? And so do a bunch of the RID Minicons and the Leader Seekers. I don't think Hasbro is purposely avoiding clear plastic considering that.

But it's possible all the springs and ratchets in the deluxes and voyagers means Hasbro can't use clear plastic without going over the price point the toy would sell at. That's my theory on it, anyway.

>>5406045
Maybe in a 2-pack as "Emergency" Groove and "Deep Space" Blastoff, or a 3-pack with Slingshot and Wildrider for 99 dlls.

>>5406098
It's not so much that clear plastic is a no-no, it's the number of plastic sprues allocated to a figure.

The legend Shockwave has 3 (purple, grey and clear pink). Most CW deluxes get 4 (which includes that hand/foot).

Meanwhile, the Takara Groove has 6 (white, off-white, black, clear, clear blue and clear red). If we take that mold straight from Takara, now were have to take a figure that was designed to have 6 different plastic colors, covered with just 4. Unlike Shockwave, most of the parts can't be cast in clear, because the plastic has to hold up as joints, or it would require a ton of paint to make it looks good.

>>5406081
Isn't that Groove deluxe going to be the bike dude from Computron?

You know what? Speaking of Lockdown I haven't finished AoE, but I did at least see when Lockdown popped his hook out. My inner fangirl squealed.

I think it's because Animated never really gets recognized that much outside of a few additions and the two movie version figures right after RotF.

Turn it into a "true" Betatron by making 99% of the combined mode grey like a prototype/mock-up. Then either keep the parts exposed only in bot mode the same color (like Scattershot has just gotten gestalt parts installed into him) or paint the robot parts black/white/greyscale.

Toy bin Anon from earlier, here with a tiiiiny update.

After rooting through the assloads of Lego's in the bin, I've pulled out what might be some Transformer weapons. And a Pretender(?) shell, plus a single Ramjet fist.

Other than what might be a Dinobot sword, anyone got an idea who these weapons might go to?

cyclonus can fuck off, i only got battle core pirme for a nova prime and as far as the autobot repaints i have ironhide. i went through the "gotta have them all phase" with the first of generations. i got drift, skullgrin, straxus, thunderwing and blackshadow just because i was desperate for more classics cons. out of all of them the only one i really like is black shadow.

I chromed sword is from this.

>>5406499
>>5406510
I went through that phase for the first part of CHUG and the first 2 movies. I then realized I didn't need a lot of these. especially with CHUG ironhide and galvatron. Same goes for the early RotF stuff.

>>5406538
That is indeed a Pretender known as Pincher. SHame you lost the bot, he's a badass scorpion.

>>5406539
Because I kept finding them on sale.
Drag strip and Offroad I got for 6 each on Amazon during a big toy sale
Found the second Dead End, and Breakdown at a go calanders clearance for 7 each
Black jack I got for $2 on Amazon renently with Motomaster for $12.
I think breakneck was $13 which isn't great but for an exclusive I got panicky and bought that second one to be safe.
I have done similar with all the CW guys so far. Bruticus has been the worse yet because I got the whole set gifted for Christmas and I still bought the set when it showed up in my stores.

>>5406581
You need help.

>>5406565
>especially with CHUG ironhide and galvatron
so much regret. also i spent like 40 bux on universe ratchet. looking back i wish i went into the movie lines better. because at the start of DOTM i had no idea who was going to be in it so i bought all the toys just in case. i bought DOTM jolt, skids and mudflap, some ugly ass bumblebee. DOTM was full of regret. it was after that line was i done being a completionist. but if the toy is part of a team i love i feel i have to get it.
>>5406581
good lord man. food for thought, just because its cheap does not mean you should get it. i love the stunticons but not so much to get them twice.

The Pretender shell is Pincher.

The purple turret thing looks like one of the Combaticon vehicle mode weapons.

>>5406592
>Combaticon vehicle mode weapons.
yeah it goes to the brawl one.

>>5406434
What Soundwave is that?

Got this guy at Goodwill for 3$, did I do good /toy/?

>>5406602
no its a rescuebot.

>>5406538
Chrome rifle with the circle in it is Jazz's
Purple turret is G2 Brawl
The fist is probably G2 Ramjet
Rest of the bits and bobs I don't have a clue outside of the little chrome stick being a lego spear.

>>5406585
At least he can sell them for more and get actually make money out of them.

>>5406613
But he's not going to.

>>5406585
I work at a hospital as the repair guy
I do at best 2 hours of work a day while the rest is me sitting waiting for a call. I get paid stupid well so 6+ hours of dead time with the Internet and money can make you buy silly things
I'm better than I use to be with shit
Back in 2009 I was buying every game released without question, when I saw the hoard I made by the end of the year I sold everything I didn't play off and swore never to do it again. Yet here I am with these stupid CW guys being the right level of fun to get me blowing cash stupidly again.

>>5406646
when they get proper generations toys then i will not shit talk them. until then all they have are shit toddler toys.

>>5406649
>shit toddler toys

No. They're just toddler toys.

>>5406626
if you only get the cannon teams and not get the autobot repaints then you should be fine. i was really bad with buying marvel legends when i got my first job and now i have a shit tone of toys of characters i know nothing about. i recently went through my collection and put a bunch in storage. i left the ML from the movies out and like 2 or 3 from comics i really like the design of. and at the time i was only making 9 bux an hour and trying to college. i could have saved so much money if i did not buy a lot of them. $300 easy.

Are Generations Thunderwing and Skullgrin good toys?

>>5406678
for thunderwing no not really. for the character he is a poor excuse for a thunderwing. alt mode is alright, backpack is big and the shoulder spikes get in the way of moving the arms forward.
skullgrin on the other hand is pretty cool. a bunch of guns, a pick axe and i love the colors. down side is the back kibble. i want a do over for thunderwing as a leader class.

>>5406678
Thunder suffers the usual jet curse of his robot mode being more or less stand up legs out shame
Decent possibility good details and paint apps
Skulls alt mode is a blast to play with and has good possablity
Colors blur details however and it makes him somewhat blan

>>5406686
Good luck, you need to both get a year of Pretenders and even then there is still a 50/50 he will just be a white redeco of a Starscream.

>>5406372
'Twas the beginning of the days of "random name re-usage."

>>5406372
Afterburner is part of a jet

>>5406717
yeah. you are right. tinywing until such a day comes.

>>5403671
Gen Scourge is, dare I say, a better toy than Cyclonus. That's why I'm selling my Gen Cyclonus and keeping him.

By the way, does anyone want a Gen Cyclonus?

>>5406759
How much?

>>5406765
Uh, ten bucks? I could bundle some other stuff in there. I'd have to take inventory but I have some old stuff from around that era.

>>5406759
i see why you think that. thinkinga bout it now scourge is the better toy, cleaner alt mode, arms ahev a bunch of the necessary joints, wrists, bicep joint, ankle tilts, waist, all that good stuff.

Can the 3P guys come post on here? Somebody's being a negative asshole in our thread and killing it.

>>5406777
No, because you are a blatant false flag.

>>5406774
Yeah, pretty much all this. I mean, Cyclonus is a great toy, they both are. But Scourge edges out with that clutch alt (some awesome transformation touches, and though the entire front is his legs, the alt itself is so damn sleek it's incredible) and the additional articulation in a ll the right places.

Is Classics Mirage still good? I only own the CW Mirage. What about RtS Perceptor? And how is the Universe Datsun mold? I kinda like the look of the Prowl. I own CW Prowl as well if that means anything.

>>5406875
Mirage is great, really nice articulation, only con is how stylized he is, Perceptor has a shitty arm conection, but overal he is pretty good, the Datsuns on the other hand are bad designed, from the akward transformation where you'll have to pop the wings so the paint don't scratch, to the sticky paint in most of the prowl copies, also the weird proportions with the high neck and the sad face.

>>5406150
I've got UW Groove in front of me, and his windshield is one clear piece with clear blue, clear red, and opaque white paint. His guns are also clear, with clear red and opaque gunmetal paint. So he's still only four sprues.

>>5406875
Datsun mold is pretty nice looking in alt, but the robot modes are pretty lame despite some decent articulation. Transformation is hit and miss.

>>5406372
Well would you look at that. Seems he had a much better name in the EU: Snipe.

>>5406875
RTS perceptor has a nice updated alt mode but this back bits don't tab in well in robot mode

>>5407261
I heard those tabs broke off easily, but I never got to find it out if it was true since I never got one.

>>5407309
Okay.

>>5407314
I just wanted an answer, jerk.

>>5407309
If you mean the screws that attach the treads to the vehicle, on mine they have no grip, just fall right out, so I wouldn't say they're broke, just weak.

>>5403671

Where do you eurofags buy your transformers from anyway ? Kapow is ok, but a bit pricy. BBTS's shipping is buttrapey, amazon.com occasionally has some semi interesting stuff...

Prices on ebay are totally retarded. Didnt it use to be the place to get shit cheap ?

>>5407607
There's a new thread, but the OP was too much of a faggot to post about it in this one.

>>5406449
Hey anon--your Brawl is mistranslated which is why you need to make Swindle's foot fucked up for balance

>>5407860
How is he supposed to be translated?

>>5408214

Is it too tall? Several of the CW figs are supposed to fold the bottom up in foot mode revealing a second peg hole and shortening them around a CM.

>>5405688
Proof?

>>5405399
i have a bootleg one of those somewhere
