Transformers General: Running Man Challenge Edition

>>5663286

When I asked for a CHUG Soundwave, this isn't what I had in mind
But fuck me if i'm not going to buy it anyway
Fuck you HasTak

>>5663299
I'm getting it. Because I love Soundwave. I have the Hasbro MP, and it's amazing, but it's a display piece. Can't just mess around with it. Plus if the MP breaks in any way it's hard to get a replacement.

He looks like a happy Soundwave.

>>5663286
his visor is so tall, it makes him look surprised.

i kinda like it, maybe the more you press down on his helmet the different expressions you can get

>>5663323
It makes me think of a Sentai/Power Ranger helmet.

Plus there are a few Titan Returns preorders with a May release date.

Most of the early releases were online, people didn't start seeing them in stores until December, and both the legends, and voyager waves came around the time they were suppose to be released.

>who's the white guy in cw magnus?
Minimus Ambus. In the comics, Magnus died a long time ago, and a tinkerer created a robot body in UM's image so he could keep him "alive".

You can have him (or Alpha Trion) riding inside Leader Ultra Magnus's chest, and the inside is molded to accomodate him perfectly. You don't have to, though. That's cool too.

>>5663428
They don't look very similiar.

>>5663428
Huh, they based some of Ultimate Optimus's design off of PM OP too, eh?

>>5663431
It's worth noting that he can't stay in the chest for vehicle mode, which ruins the gimmick for me.

>>5663428
Oh so they aren't the same. Just share a few similarities. Let's hope that idiot shuts up now about them being the exact same thing.

>>5663390
And if the little guy bothers you and you can't stand him, you can chuck him across the room, Magnus does not need him for transformation or anything.

>>5663428
I want to believe they delayed the release since they're trying to make it look more like Super Ginrai.

I've nothing against G1 designs but you'd think since based bat-wave we'd be over captain cassette tape.

You would have bitched about him being a Headmaster if they had given him a full body as well.

>>5663759
>that oversized visor that makes him look friendly
Thats a mistransformation, they didn't lowered the helmet enough.

>>5663388
I'm not him, but I wanted a Soundwave on the small Voyager side. Something to go with the Classics Megatron. Not this colossally oversized monstrosity and the lame modern music player aesthetics.

>>5663609
That's obviously not what he meant by riding in the cab.

>>5663428
it's a retool of CW Ultra Magnus so I don't have high expectations for this

One thing I never ask about this image, why would you want another Brainstorm? We just got one like two years ago.

>>5663813
The voyager head dude isn't compatible with the titanmasters, also the new one will be more g1-ish, while the voyager aesthetic is full IDW.

>>5663803
Well, we did get Leader seekers, Megatron, and now Soundwave. I'm pretty sure we'll get a new Shockwave eventually, considering Earth Wars is hinted at being "back to basics" I can see it happening then. They're going to need Leader class figures for that line.

>>5663813
>More g1-ish
In that case I'm surprised that we're not getting one, seeing how the current TF team have such a hard on for G1 and allegedly hate anything that differs from it, especially Beast Wars.

>>5663803
I can't wait for a legends soundwave that's compatible with himself

We are getting one, a retooled blurr, the OP picture meant to say that the resources that went into blurr should've gone into brainstorm getting a unique mold.

>>5663832

G1 sells. This keeps being proven time and again. It's the aesthetic people want.

>>5663832
Not getting one what, Brainstorm? we're getting him, but it's half-assed, G1? doesn't Titans return and Combiner wars fall under that banner? or are you talking the 84/85 guys?

>>5663832
JohnWarden is basically approaching Transformers the way he did GI Joe. but while that worked for GI Joe because the 90's/early 2000's where mostly a wash for the franchise, he seems to think Transformers where the same way before the movie. Sure, it wasn't as successful as the 80's or post-movie, but with the exception of late G2 and Beast Machines, it was steady. And that's almost better than being a fad.

>>5663850
But.. one day... someone will make a Beast wars headmaster right? RIGHT?

Oh you mean the series that's getting a Masterpiece with alleged rumors of another? Also I'm sure one of the beast headmasters will get repainted into a Beast Wars character.

>>5663904
The western team that decides what they do with the Classics stuff and Takara's MP team are totally different. Hasbro isn't even directly involved in MPs anymore

>>5663906
>Hasbro isn't even directly involved in MPs anymore

Well shit didn't know that. At least Takara will still give us cool shit. Although I gotta ask why Cheetor? is it because his Universe toy was shit or because he was the kid appeal character that almost every kid who liked Beast Wars had a toy of? I had two of them myself.

Used the wings form a junker rts wheeljack. drilled small holes on the handfootgun and used the same pins the wings already had, the hood has a 5 mill port on the back for the hfg so it was easy.

>>5663918
He's the Datsun of the BW toyline. Its got a lot of repaint potential.we'll probably get some crazy extensive remold of it as Tigatron (remolded beast and robot head, beast limbs, beast kibble to make him bulkier), then maybe another remold as Shadow Panther. Megatron is likely, too, but they are probably trying to space out the expensive releases, and Dinobot is a very tricky design.

also someone cobbled together 96 Cheetor and Universe Cheetor and its amazing how much nicer it looks. Not perfect, but they pulled off the beast mode well.

>>5663889

Not him, but it looks like he took them from another Generations Wheeljack.

I think we'll see them do some crazy remold magic to do Tigatron and Shadow Panther. People keep saying Tigatron would need to be bigger, but one of the areas that'd definitely need a remold would be the legs and that
s and easy place to add height. Shadow Panther only because I think they probably won't make any show Predacons and they'll just count him as one. G1 'Cons barely get any love so it's possible that extends to BW 'Cons.

Figured out how this was built. It's BW Cheetor with the shins, front beast legs, beast head and neck (and robot head) of the Universe toy. I should totally buy some junkers and do this.

Basically the whole central core/torso is just BW Cheetor's, then the extremities are swapped out for a better beast mode.

I really hope this is an emerging pattern in the MP line and not the only other BW character we're getting. If we're only guaranteed two BW MP characters, Cheetor would be my last choice. If we're gonna get more, he's a good second entry. Time will tell, I suppose.

However, for the love of christ please don't neglect the Predacons. I get that with the Decepticons there's a limited pool of characters that make sense as MP figures outside of the seekers (especially given that the Autobots are just cars which makes engineering comparatively easier), but with Beast Wars, both sides are just animals. There's no licensing issues and no engineering issues that are harder than others with only a couple of exceptions (Terrorsaur will be an interesting challenge if we ever get him). There's no reason to play Good Guy favorites like 90% of the Transformers toy lines normally do.

Make good on your bullshit promise and actually give us equal representation on both sides for once, Hastak. Us villain fans have been waiting.

Outside of making what's actually going to sell.

>>5664600
Yeah, that reminds me, how many more S1/S2 MP Decepticons are even possible? I know someone at Takara said they weren't planning on doing tri-changers or combiners so that cuts a ton of characters.

I mean, there's Reflector, the Insecticons, the last two coneheads, and what else?

I'm surprised Takara hasn't tried making an all-fembot line. Hell, it wouldn't even need to be under the Transformers ip.

Beast Wars' dub in Japan was really nuts and was nearly a gag dub. I wonder how much this colors the popularity of these characters in Japan. I seem to recall BA isn't a femme fatale at all and is a shrieking and hysterical (although that might have been Airachnid in Prime)

its already been confirmed by the silhouette, now that I think about it with the deco as is that sword needs to be made out of rubies to make it any bit good.

>>5665722
He's still on store shelves and available many places online. Just look a bit. I don't know what /tfg/'s opinion of BBTS is, but he's there.

>>5665710

Hasbro version of WeirdWolf has a much sleeker head. Not as "anime accurate" but in this case, fuck it.

Only thing I like *way* better is the way they painted the sword here, and that's not worth the additional $20 (based on BBTS pre-orders)

I like the darker lower legs on Blaster, very slick, but again I don't think it's a case where it's just so unbelievably better that I can't just take the Hasbro one. Only one of those this round is Wheelie, oddly enough.

A cartoon head on Blaster would have really sealed it. Surprised that the deluxes have new ones but not him. I guess it's harder to do something new given the flip up helmet gimmick?

Oh okay. Well scout a bit online and you should be able to find him easily. Just don't wait too long, if you wait a couple of months more, he could be gone. That was the case for me with Metroplex. I was able to get him over a year from his release date for a normal price, and then a month later he skyrocketed.

My UW Wildrider (and I assume Dead-End) have stress marks on the hinge of the windshield assembly. Seems like shaving some plastic from the bottom of the combiner port crevice helps but just throwing it out there what with the AB mold having tolerance/cracking issues and all. I guess I'm just paranoid now.

You faggots keep crying this but Takara keeps proving you wrong every time. If you think MP Primal doesn't look better than the original you're blind. There's tons of improvements that could be made to this.

I think everyone is still recovering after the Meth Kitty debacle

>>5665794

He's improved but a paltry amount. Nobody asked for this and there are much more deserving molds.

Looks like it need it to tab the gun/turret >>5665782

>>5665800
They had to find a way to use the molds hasbro got for their exclusive subline "cheap replacement heads for the distracted child".

>>5665801
The fact that the left arm is hollow and the right arm isn't oddly? I just noticed that myself, and I am having a hard time trying to justify that.

>>5665809
Don't bully.

I see you're lost foreign friend. You see this is an American site dedicated Tibetan Pop Up Books so we speak English which you clearly don't understand. I'd suggest finding a site that speaks your language so you can communicate with others online better.

>>5665805
I want to say it's probably the faux hollowness on the right arm. Or too much hollowness on the left arm.
Maybe it's just my autism.

Hasbro's solution is better. The vehicle is literally based on his alt modes, it should come with him

>>5665819

Hey retard the new cheetor hasn't been seen yet, I was referring to Primal, whose breakaway elbows and non articulated lower half of beast mode is very, very fucking paltry.

>continuing the meme of every MP is shit even though I haven't seen it in person

truly the dankest meme in all of this generals history :')

>>5665829

Nope that would be a bad generalization on your part.

> I'm mystified that someone can predict a toy's articulation by utilizing common sense and twenty years of available engineering to pull from.

Is your skull still forming?

>>5665831
Mate this general was decrying Shockwave before it even came out because of the knees. This general's opinions on MPs is pretty shit and if you go by it every MP besides MP-10 is bad.

>>5665840

The knee limitation was predicted accurately as anyone with him can attest to.

>>5665840

Personally I think Wheeljack is the high water mark. MP-10 is pretty great though.

>>5665843
Didn't say it wasn't limited. I said that this general was saying Shockwave was shit the moment the toy was shown off. A toy can have limitations in the articulation and still be good. If you're expecting Figuarts level articulation on Transformers you're braindead.

>reading comprehension

also
>but muh SoC GaoGaiGar that costs $150 more than most MPs

>>5665824
>Caring about the articulation in beast mode

That's nitpicky as fuck and you know it. Barely anyone keeps their Transformers in alt mode except autists who buy several of one toy so they can keep one in robot mode, one in alt mode, and one in box and god help them if it has more than two modes.

>>5665846

I'm more forgiving than most anons here, Shockwave is fucking great but the best thing about him is his proper scale so you can still hold him in alt mode. That right there is a shining example of Takara learning from past mistakes.

>>5665849

It is nitpicky I wouldn't care so much if it wasn't permanently cast in that upright walking position. Show accurate to a fault but lord is it dumb looking.
