Why Hasbro don't want my money?
>>
>>5710789
Probably because Combiner wars has only lasted a little over a year so far, and Hasbro/Takara has things like budget, retailers, and so on to deal with. Guys like MMC and TFC can just do a set of combiners and a handful of other figures a year, while Hasbro and Takara are making a ton of figures for a variety of audiences from 4 year olds to 44 year olds. Besides,distribution is already an issue for the CW line as is, let alone with 2 or 3 more sets of combiners crammed within the same year.

Challenge: Invent a new TF line, and it cannot be a continuation of a previous line (beast combiners, etc.)

Hard mode: Characters are all fully new, no name reuses, and homages must be Unicron Trilogy levels of minimal.

For mine:
>all fembot line of moeshit-esque designs. Possibly a few autobot/decepticon clone esque figures with varying altmodes but have a similar body resembling some sort of school uniform- heads would be different, unlike the g1 clones.

Holy shit, I forgot how much I miss the generations toys, they hit the right level of aesthetics and difficulty.

Got a feeling if it wasn't for the henkei releases these guys would of gotten chrome over the clear, that said I'm more worried about my ghost starscream from my grand galvatron set.

Which begs the question, I do have the old hasbro generations galvatron, should I get the new voyager?

I clearly have no issue with multiple characters as I have a grand total of 4 cyclonus toys with one being the g1

Transformers:Giant slayers

basically an attempt to do an "in-scale" TF line. Autobots mainly being cars and in tinier scales(Legends/Scouts and maybe a few deluxes) with Decepticons being larger military vehicles with a handful of smaller figures, mainly occupying voyager/ultra/ and leader scales.

Autobots would have to rely on combiners and power armor(disguised as other vehicle things like trailers, towed cars, etc.; maybe even smaller architecture like gas stations or garages) to size up. The Prime(maybe not Optimus; I'd like for the characters to mostly be new but familiar archetypes. or maybe obscure characters) would have a supermode to look the bad-guy leader face to face. Lots of base playsets, too, that provide extra weapons and armor and disguise themselves as mundane places. The centerpiece, and most expensive autobot toy, would be a citybot with a train/subway system gimmick. The second priciest autobots would be a train combiner(like raiden/Rail racer) which would still only be deluxes or smaller voyagers(like megas) at best

Beast bots would factor in as tiny scouts, like the Legends target masters, or micromasters/minicons. Things like canines, birds, and zoo creatures; leading up to a "zoo" playset that serves as a base for these. And a beast combiner that combines to reach scout/deluxe size. Stylewise they'd be biomechanical(like Cybertron or some of the BW Transmetals), but fiction would handwave it as having hologram disguises that look like real beasts. Dinobots would be an animatronic dinosaur exhibit.
>>
>>5711037
God I love this bot design, wish there was a figure of some sort of it.... Even without the ghostbusters its still cool.
>>
>>5711043
(cont)

Decepticons would focus on size and weapon gimmicks. There's a limited number of them but it's emphasized that it takes a ton of Autobots to take one down. They're heavily armored with lots of addable and also hidden weaponry. The main 'Con leader is smaller, turns into a tank, but can combine with a Cybertronian weapons system for a super mode that makes him more leader sized. there might be a gimmick where a piece can be removed to disable them(maybe a spark, a transformation cog, or even the entire head). Depending on how non obtrusive this could be, it may do things like turn the eyes black, make limbs pop off, or even make the figure fall in some way(i.e., spinal piece is taken out and the figure topples over). If it gets int he way too much, I'd nix it, though.

'Cons would have their own smaller members, mainly as infiltration. this is where rubbings factor in as a gimmick. Later on, we'd also see deception combiners as well, many to counter the autobot base bot.
>>
>>5711043
>the biggest and most expensive toys are of the villains
>heroes are cheaper to buy

This sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.
>>
>>5711058
This would be balanced out by the heroes having a bunch of playsets and other sets that'd cost around the same of voyagers/ultras/leaders.
Besides, there's probably been more leader decepticons than Autobots in the last year alone, anyway. The "bad guys don't sell" thing is more of a factor for Japanese kid's toyline than american ones.
>>
>>5711060
to be fair the reason we got more villain leader size toys in CW was because they used the same two molds for most of the wave. UM was the only mold not reused. Also leader Skywaps be clogging most shelves

They're two different things, don't be a dumdum.
>>
>>5711095
I was actually thinking of working in pilots as pretender-type Decepticon agents. Being military vehicles, the Decepticons need infiltrators to stay in disguise andhide their movements. So pilot figures would either be separate characters(like Frenzy in TF07), or Japanese headmaster style mini-versions of cons.

On the Autobots, having pilots may be harder at the scale, but it'd be cool to do. Similarly, I'd like to have a few Autobot defectors that remain small, but pilot large Decepticon bodies.

I don't think Transformers should look a certain way. I got into Transformers through beast Wars, also had Machine wars, stayed on through Beast Machines, then RiD, Armada, and so on. All those series had drastically different looks.

So ROTF rampage may not look much like a typical G1 Transformer, but neither does BW rampage, but I don't think that means either aren't Transformers. even in G1, which early on was made up of different lines, you have guys like Skylynx or Omega Supreme or Shockwave which don't really match the aesthetics of the diaclone/Microman guys.

Just cutting a little bit off his legs so you can rotate them better and then fanmoding them was enough for me to like it. I've got the KO PE hands and feet coming too which will help even more.

He's a pretty good mold, damn sinister too.

Only problems are his proportions: stubby arms, wiiiiide chest, loooong legs. And his legs have very little usable articulation.
>>
>>5711729
If you fold his legs like have in the picture, then you'll notice MM's thigh swivel (which would help to position Menasor's legs) are blocked by a little triangle of plastic on the gray lower legs. I just trimmed and sanded down the offending bits of plastic so his legs can freely rotate outward in combined mode.

I picked up Legion Fixit on a whim because I love drills and he was on clearance. He's fucking neat. I don't watch RID so I don't know what his altmode is but I fucking love it.

Apparently in this mode he can be wielded like a big drill fist? I couldn't get any of the RID Autobot Warriors I have (Drift, Grimlock, Strongarm) to hold onto him. They all had kibble or arms that prevented them reaching their hands in to properly grip him. Are there any RID Autobot warriors that can hold him particularly well?

Because Chad Vader was a million times more popular amongst many demographics and Dr.smoov was not. Star wars is the most mainstream "nerd" franchise ever. Transformers, while popular, is not on the level of star wars.

It deviated from the original G1 version the most so there wasn't as firm a foundation to build on inspiration-wise. It was also likely the first one designed and it wouldn't surprise me if the need for pretooling it for Optimus affected the design as well.

To who? Sky-Lynx has issues, but you can fix the legs easily, the only problem after that is the shoulders, but that still doesn't compare to Menasor's issues.

So I went to a little comic con in my town today. It was kind of a bust in the TF department. Few shitty condition g1s and some bayformers. But I got Movie '07 Voyager Ironhide and Starscream together for $30 and I'm pretty satisfied with them. That was pretty much it for good tfs, though.

The QB line was pretty good. They did re-releases of some of the ones that had the older shit joints, with the newer good ones.

They've done some of the best MGS and Marvel figs as of late too. Their Ultron kicks the shit out of other companies, and their Venom Snake and Raiden do too.

They're probably going to announce something on the 6th since they put up an anniversary teaser image.

They were actually suggested to me by these generals a few months back, so I figure I'd pass it along. They're not bad as long as they're not being scalped, you can get a pack of'em (they come with 3 stands per pack) for like $12-17 usually.

You might need 2 stands for larger figures though, like Voyagers. I wouldn't use'em on anything bigger though.

Just to let you know, it will take some fiddling to get them to sit how you want, since you're just sort of working the plastic claws in wherever you can while also trying to balance the figure to it.

The comics seem to actually have shyed away from being a marketing tool for anything other than the occasional event (Combiner Wars), given most of the cast are literal who's and characters that don't have readily available figures.

If anything, the comics are becoming an advertisement for 3P's at this point, given 3P's are the ones making figures for the comic characters.

I'm not sure if you realize it, but you can pop out those round plugs on the baseplate to attach multiple arms. It should look better supporting Cyclonus that way.

Same here, guess you can customize Astrotrain from AB, Blitzwing from Rook or Brawl, planes are easy repaints.

Your line work is pretty solid. Your colors need work, just from looking at your blog. That might be the fault of the program you're using though, not sure.

After all, it's not like I know what you'd need to get coloring like pic related, which is about as perfect as you can get in terms of Transformers looks.

t-thanks, dad

>>5713508
my dad does that too.
>>
>>5713468
Fuck, I'm jelly. I picked up 2 g2 Optimus with complete cabs but no hands or guns, g2 megaton with missiles still in magazine, g1 grimlock, g1 jet fire, a couple of other dinobots and random other figures and accessories for $65 2 weeks ago.
>>
>>5713508

What was the buy?
>>
>>5713508
Everytime I talk to my dad about his opinion on figures I want to buy.

>"Why aren't you saving your money and buying sealed G1 figures? They are a good investment and will keeping going up in price. No one will want this newer masterpiece junk, or 3rd party shit because it's made for 'collectors'."
>b-b-but dad, I don't want a shelf full of boxes with outdated toys I can't pose and display at my house.
>"GET THE ORIGINAL GEEEWUNNN REEEEEEEE"

I've basically quit asking him about which version of defensor or whatever I should get. He just gets to see it when it gets delivered and I come pick it up since my address aint secure.
>>
>>5713536

Your dad has shit taste. I grew up with G1, but I wouldn't want those figures anymore, nostalgia be damned. They were bricks. I want shit I can pose.
>>
>>5713550
right? That's what I keep trying to tell him. The only G1's I have that I plan to keep are my Shockwave, Jetfire with his box, Blaster, and maaaayyyybeee my boxed Astrotrain, but I'm feeling like selling him to pick up a 3rd party version.

Try turning down your brightness then a bit. I dunno. Transformers are usually depicted as pretty brighly colored/shiny, even the ones that are darker colored.

Did someone say ballbusting?

yuo like TFs and TOuhou too, anon? lets chat!

Wow, looking at ROTF Deluxe Skids, he's almost a pure shellformer. Basically everything but the front of the car could be taken off without affecting the robot much.

>>5713661
I went to a tiny con too. Oh the hilarity I saw. One guy, the biggest TF vendor there, had G2 Superion and Menasor set for $160. Loose weak jointed chug deluxes for $20 each. Perfect Effect Upgrade Combiner kits for $75. G1 toys in beat up ripped boxes for hundreds of dollars. I never saw anyone buy anything from him except for parents that felt trapped into paying $20 for a beat up deluxe for their 8 year old. I went to his table 20 minutes before the con closed offering him $10 each on a Generations Kup with a jiggly loose neck joint, and $10 on a scuffed up Generations Scourge.

He said "Are you trying to rip me off? I can sell these for twice that tonight on ebay."

"I've been collecting these for 20 years.... they sell for $20 sealed on ebay fairly regularly. These are used and floppy."

and of course he gets all puffed up and goes "Fuck you. If you want em you can pay $25 each."

I just went home and bought them loose on ebay for like $8 each.

Not to mention the vendor was a short fat guy in a fedora of all things.

Went to a con called Joelanta in Atlanta a few months back and there was a guy just like that there, wonder if it's the same guy, I know he goes all over the east coast because a friend of mine had a run in with the same guy at Botcon.
>>
>>5713709
the con I went too was called Collect-a-con in Syracuse new york. It was geared towards vintage toys.

>>5713709

How the fuck do people like that make money? There so much competition.

>>5713707
She towered over the early humans

>>5713715
she did? could have sworn Megatron was small enough to fit inside Optimus Prime's cab doors, and Blackarachnia's smaller than Megatron

Scale and transformers never mix.

Transformers: Hyper Boosters. Decepticons are bigger, and more powerful than the Autobots, with alt modes that emphasize their strength (Dragons, Jets, futuristic super tank, battleship). They'd also get squads of small figures (essentially minicons), these figures attaching themselves to their body as weapons, or becoming armor. All sets are compatible with other Decepticions.

Autobots are smaller figures (very few voyagers, and most are between deluxe, and Legends size), but they get 4 legends figures that can combine with their boosters(trailers), a police car, a boat, a jet, and a space cruiser). They can combine wit the boosters to turn into leader size or supreme size figures. The fun with these figures is that the boosters can be used by all the legends size Autobots. The only thing that might annoy people is that the head for the combined figures is a headmaster that goes inside the booster, attaches to the legends it combined with, then has a "crown" of sorts go over the head. All the legends figures come with a headmaster and crown.

The deluxe size Autobots come in pairs that combine with each other. Basically Energon's powerlinx, but better.
>>
>>5713659
To be fair, most bayformers are designed to have the vehicles be outer shells for the robots.
The best like Optimus, Ratchet, or Starscream don't leave anything you can take from the vehicle and still get a robot.
>>
>>5710877
Transformers: Bio

Similar to beast wars. Insecticon faction, Plantformer faction.
>>
>>5713786
>Altmodes that have no articulation or way of moving around.
Oh boy.
>>
>>5713800
You know there are plenty of plants that could have articulation.

Obviously you won't have a pine tree as Prime.
>>
>>5713711
In short they don't make much.
He is likely running the vendor as a side project from his garage
That's where the temperament spikes from, they don't keep a good track of the market and where it's not their lively hood they urk out an existence at cons.
>>
>>5713804
>No Optimus Pine
This was a joke. Can't you just make a different franchise about plantlike robot warriors?
>>
>>5713800
Slow moving plant based transformers loaded down with acidic chem weapons isn't interesting?
>>
>>5713508
My dad has a rage when I have my bi monthly shipments come in, he's still bitter over the generations metroplex sprawled across the floor, let alone the $400 shipment that came last week

You're lucky he supports it
>>
>>5713811
No. Children like dynamic colorful characters that do actiony things, not a mass of green and brown sloths.
>>
>>5713800
Balljointed roots, nigga.

>>5713784

Maybe you should move out of his house if you have that money to spend

What repaints/retools can we expect out of Titan Wars?
>>
>>5713840
'07 and DOTM.
The ROTF one needs the vehicle parts to form most of its armor.
>>
>>5713843
Hopefully they redeco Sentinel's head for another character and release it on one legends pack.
The sculpt on that thing is really cool but I only want the Astrotrain version of that mold.
>>
>>5713843
Every non-combining guy from 1986 to 1988, bar maybe the Pretenders if they are doing those in a different arc of Prime Wars.
>>
>>5713856
I could see Mindwipe being done as a Bomb Burst.
>>
Anything except any more actual headmasters.
>>
>>5713864
Headmaster is a cooler gimmick than sparking
>>
>>5713843
Everyone's hoping for beast wars retools from the cons, but who knows.
>>
>>5712814

Probably. Legends TM Venin was pretty much Bugly in all but name
>>
>>5713866
I don't care.
>>
>>5713711
The guy I'm talking about spent all weekend bitching about how little money he made, so in short they don't.
>>
>>5713870
Then why do you care about Doublecross' toy's current state?
>>
>>5713874
Yes, I don't care for your opinion on the matter.
>>
>>5713878
What exactly do you care about? What reasons do you care?

I wonder if those used custom-designed sparkers, or if you could use one out of a cigarette lighter?
