How are your experiences with the individual packed Titan Masters?

I got Clobber, Loudmouth, and Apeface. Clobber fits snugly, almost as good as Furos himself. Good thing too because he looks the best on Hardhead by far.

Loudmouth goes in okay but not quite all the way. It's a secure enough connection though so I don't really feel like using hamhand power to shove him in an extra millimeter.

Apeface just doesn't fit at all though. I tried it with the head facing forwards and backwards. Neither way worked under the amount of pressure I was comfortable giving. Now I know the Scourge mold has a super loose connection port, so maybe Apeface would work better there? Or is this just a QC issue entirely?
>>
>>5796452
It depends on how he pronounces "illiterate". If he pronounces "illiteret" he's obviously off as fuck, but if he pronounces it as "illiterait" then he's correct.

Damnit, I didn't even know I had him, though I suspect he was a present for my younger brother as my other generations toys, even deluxe megatron were in better shape, intact, all weapons stored despite being stuck in a box with over 50 other transformers and this guy was out with wrestling figures and dvd's belonging to my brother of 9 years difference.

Ok anons, what can I do here?

Depends on a number of factors, nationalities, sensitivity, and cost.

Because alot of these are cheap anyone can take a bit of interest, we won't see shit like this in the figma or nendoroid generals because those are expensive and aren't something one can beg their mother to buy especially if its brought over locally.

As for an example of nationalities, I watch the octa transformers page and they're pretty decent (if slow) but then tfw has a fair bit of shit going on, but then again there are so few Aussie transformer fans compared to asia/North America, etc, then we got sensitivity and oh boy, some people go off like the 4th of july and that happens anywhere.

But I don't mind, its never dull here, besides its just words on screen and shitty memes that remind of us where we are.

So how do you guys peg your titan masters in head mode? Both faces looking forward or small face looking backward?
>>
>>5796917
I only have Hardhead but the headmasters and receptacle on the body have a matching set of nubs and recesses.
>>
>>5796917
Small head looks backwards.
>>
>>5796947
You're doing it wrong, then.
>>
>>5796947
The tfwiki says the opposite.

But from the box, the head is installed with the small head looking backwards.
>>
The reason that the small head faces backwards is because there are grooves on the back of the small head that correspond to ridges in the clip. If the clip had been thinner(front to back, not top to bottom), it would grip the small head tightly with the ridge-groove locking in place. You would then tilt the head forwards so that the grooves would push apart the ridges allowing for easy removal.

Conversely, having the small head face forward is relying on friction, with the ridges spread apart around the head. Over time, the plastic will spread out to conform to this new position, meaning that those who face the head forwards are going to eventually experience bad fits.


TL;DR
Head should face the back, grooves should match the ridges.
>>
>>5796683
They're fucking amazing. You won't regret buying one (or both)
>>
>The Victorion box set is the first combiner set to go below 70

So much for the fan combiner.
>>
>>5796917
The correct way is small head facing backwards. My Skullcrusher's head, however, cannot fit that way. When I first tried pulling his head off, the titanmaster's head pulled out of its body and I had to use a pliers to pull the little head out. Tried shaving some plastic but didn't notice any mold flash getting in the way or anything, and nothing was seeming to make it fit better, but putting the titanmaster in with the small head facing forward allowed it to fit snugly and still be removable.
>>

It's at 69.99, but this just proves people really don't want it, since it's the only combiner to end up at 72-74, and stay at that same amount for over a week.

While a few of the weapon choices for the headmasters were annoying (since I liked their original load outs more), I really like they made the cannon removable for Hardhead, and made it so figures could go inside the anon while also providing a hatch if you didn't have any figures inside it.

He's not a Decepticon spy in MTMTE. Have you actually read the series?
>>
Basically their personalities/characters are this:

Terribull: Homosexual teenage delinquent

Crashburn/Squeezeplay: Teenage delinquent with a heart of gold, who just looks scary and psychotic.

Loudmouth/Siren: Basically Ronnie Gardocki to Nightbeat's Vic Mackey. Gets the shit kicked out of him a lot because of Nightbeat's wacky shenannigans. Also, longstanding fan theory dating back to the G1 comics, is that Siren/Nightbeat are lovers.

Apeface: Asshole thug who likes to beat the shit out of people and was exiled because he was too extreme for Scorponok. Also, his headmaster Nebulon was a rich kid who was bullied all of his life growing up, because his dad got caught doing nasty shit for Zarak and became a pariah as a result.

Brawn: Midget/Min-Vehicle with super strength/toughness with a superiority complex

Skullcruncher: Basically imagine Rob Riggle as a Transformer: a brick shithouse soldier turned comedian

Clobber is Grimlock under a new name

Flywheel/Skytread: A plane and a Tank that merge to create a robot. No personality

Hardhead: Dumb Muscle

Fortress Maximus: Pacifist formerly known as Cerebros who got the fuck out dodge when he got tired of the war with the Decepticons.

He was a spy and got the entire crew of the Lost Lights crew slaughtered in the sideways universe.

Also, because they didn't have the balls, Rodimus gave him a pardon when he got caught poisoning everyone at Swerve's bar and was outed as a spy when he decided to go back and kill Megatron cause he was butt-hurt his lover died during the war

I like to use the spine of a small Swiss army knife blade. Just put the dull edge next to the tab that locks the elbows and give it a twist, it should pop right off the catch.
>>
>>5797717
They got slaughtered because Drift accidentally broke the deal with the DJD. Brainstorm had nothing to do with their deaths.

The Engex poisoning was for him to go back and kill Megatron so the war wouldn't begin. That's not very Decepticon-ish to me

Worse: basically remember all of the complaints made about Drift being an edgy Mary Sue when he first debuted? Take those complaints and magnify them by ten and you get the DJD.

The sad thing? The concept makes some sense but they wasted it by refusing to use existing characters (the first wave Headmasters would have been perfect or even the Headmaster Jr Cons, after IDW rendered Overlord radioactive) and making the group a bunch of edgy complete monsters who can't be beaten because of Mary Sue plot armor, as opposed to a much more interesting concept, like an Internal Affairs who works for Soundwave to keep Decepticons in line by giving Soundwave blackmail fodder to keep potential Starscreams in check.

They're decent enough for being OC, but fuck they need to get shit on hard and fast by something. The current fight is kind of hurting them a little, but they've been built up way too much for what they are.

It also sucks they'll probably never get official figures either unless some of their alt modes get changed up.

On a side note, anyone think Sentinel Prime will turn out to be Tarn?

We never actually saw him die in Megatron Origin and given Megatron's comment about "if Optimus knew who you were and that I turned you, they'd shudder at my power" comment, it makes sense for it to be Sentinel, who was rebuilt and brainwashed to be Tarn.

Megatron doing this to a Prime and the former head of the corrupt government would make Optimus shudder, especially since it would create a crisis towards Optimus's legitimacy as a Prime if the old one was alive.

Plus it would make sense towards explaining how they would bring Sentinel back in the comics, in terms of having him be Tarn and have him be rightfully pissed at everyone for effectively abandoning him for Optimus/not caring to look for him after Megatron had him mindraped into being his #1 fan
>>

Not to mention it wold make for new drama for the exiled 'Bots to deal with, as far as the fallout from Megatron's actions and give Prowl (who's supposed to be joining MTMTE) a reason to show up in terms of wanting revenge on Megatron for mindraping his former boss

For some reason Hasbro thought it was a good idea to just release 90% of its stock in SEA. Seriously, all the pictures I see are of their store shelves full of the newest toys while my local retailers never get shit.

Also, you should watch the Ravage review. I don't think anyone was excited about the mold in the first place, but the whole thing's fucking soft plastic.

Let me tell you about MP Soundwave.

I wanted him, and found out he was coming out months ahead of time. I followed all the release details and leaks, until somebody found out the exact day he was going online. I stayed up all night refreshing the page until he went up at around 5am, when I was able to quickly check out and order him (it may have been a pre-order; I can't remember.) Within 30 minutes he was completely sold out.

That's what you were expected to do to get Hasbro's Soundwave. There is no excuse for a mass market product to be completely unable to match demand like that. Soundwave is one of those cases where the typical /toy/ autist will shit on you for not pre-ordering and wanting a toy after it was released, but Soundwave, and the western MPs in general, are incredibly mishandled.

I haven't looked, but the Takara Soundwave was 300 dollars complete, so you might be better off going that route if Hasbro is so expensive now.

He's good, but I personally definitely wouldn't pay more than retail for him though. The fact that the G1 version does a better job with his altmode that the Masterpiece is pretty embarrassing.

No it's cool. You find one for cheaper than you expected and you might as well grab an extra just in case.

Although you should've gotten another one so you can have two out-of-box in his alt modes, while the third stays in robot mode in the packaging.

Basically. I'm guessing he tries to be an "intellectual" in order to better imitate Megatron.

>all that robot kibble prevents free movement
>back shell doesn't fold limited it from crouching poses
>transformation while easy doesn't seem to tab together well as the plastic buckles in your hands

Lockdown at least moved around freely and his transformation went quite smoothly, the lack of windows in the side sucks ass and his plastic is just as weak, but his transformation doesn't seem to worry about it so badly.

>>5798153
Not quite anon, remember, this is Australian retail, as in prices are AUD not USD

See that full price?

That's how much we normally pay for cw/possibly tr deluxes ( TRU/myers) and toyworld charges $31 for RiD shit now which annoys me.

Cheapest for CW is 25aud before sales, finally I...do have to agree, these doesn't even feel the price they're at now, but at one point they were this much depending on the store.

Now I feel stupid, I bought the Japanese movie advanced repaint of bumblebee as stinger for $30 just because it was fresh off the tru load thinking it was rare, though it wasn't the worse toy I had it did have a similar feel to these, just more gloss

>paying for something the toy should have

HOW DARE YOU SUGGEST I WASTE MY MONEY ON SOMETHING THAT SHOULD ALREADY BE INCLUDED REEEEEEE

...poor jokes aside I actually like the mis-matched hands and feet he has, I do admit I *did* consider a set for my UW menasor (don't like the head and the cost+shipping was a turn off) and then we got white optimus maximus who does need it but same reason that went for menasor.

It cost me from my usual retailer almost the cost of 2 cw deluxes, and my combiners just stand all day, its just not cost effective, let alone other online retailers, clearly priced for hardcore people who'd be playing with them more so and giving them lavish photo shoots

Also I'm just quite used to having shit toys hanging around, I grew to like the proportions, more so on Grand Scourge than the others...that said one day I'll pull out my Victorion (again) and give her high heels to someone else just for laughs, not that her falling over because of her shit balance that her ratcheted feet didn't stop made me laugh

I do, but mostly a fiddle from time to time, not enough to warrant ratcheted feet

>>5798195
So knock off guns from lockdown or knock off PE hand feet sets?

I've never worked out how to use that site, do I need a proxy, the fact it shows my country flag but no english confuses me

>ratcheted feet
?
The PE kit is ball jointed, not ratcheted
>>
>>5798197
...oh really?

I thought they would of been similar to victorion/CW computron's feet, it would allow for better range of motion but how do they support the weight? (not that the ratchets do much without the figure's own weight tripping them up)
>>

It works, the large size of the feet really helps with stability. Although I'm considering tightening Bruticus' feet just a tiny bit. That's always a major advantage with ball joints.

Well I'm pleasantly surprised.

Doesn't help with the taobao solution (still reading guides, too used to working with japanese proxies) but its something, thanks for the info

Which hasbro mp grimlock is better, the one with the open clear box or the one that is in line better with most hasbro mp's?

I know the boxes don't matter but I heard one has more qc issues than the other, I wish to avoid that one

You mean the pony statues? Yeah, those have been around since before TR started crawling ino stores.

>Can't tell if sarcasm, but thank you either way
No I really mean it. The faster those things leave the shelves, the likelier it is for you to get new toys.
>>
>>5798213
This is true, looks like they just came in though, Vic state store, CBD, the "central" store (biggest of the toyworld's I'm aware of) and from the looks of it they just came in.

Which tells me either hasbro AU is gearing up for more warehouse room or these were cheap imports from hong kong or something, either way I kinda wish they'd hurry up with the TR stuff, I got pre-orders for the takara versions only because we got nothing here yet save an over priced sentinel prime and galvatron in a comic book shop called minotaur ($62aud,fuck that most places don't go above $50aud).

I'm just impatient

By the way... You can peel off the "TRANSFORMERS" sticker on the bubble and reuse it as a decal or something.

These shellformers are sitting at discount stores in the US, along with some dinobots. Can't seem to find Voyager Grimlock though, he's the only dinobot I'm missing from this horrible TF line. Didn't bother with the vehicles.

Voyager Hound and Evasion Prime are both really fucking good. So is Deluxe Drift.
