>>5859870
Do you mean the tiny scorpion? He comes with 2007 voyager blackout, and any repaint of him.

>>5859871
Same, I only want Siren from wave 1, and all of wave 2.

Unrelated to this, for some reason, Amazon has Fortmax for pre-order, and are officially selling him at this moment.

I have no idea how.

>>5859885

I love how the titan master becomes an integral part of the combined mode and isn't just a block to fill a gap or something

Is wave 1 some kind of "preview" wave like TFP:First Edition toys? I notice most retailers in my area skipping directly to wave 2 when they finally brought in Titan Returns.

>>5859916
No. Just weird distribution.

>>5859916
Someone fucked up with the distribution at some point, and had both Wave 1, and 2 delivered. Some stores get 1, others get 2. I've only seen wave 1, once.

Now I'm ordering MP Cheetor and looking at 3Ps. I'm such a sucker for beast formers, I'm probably getting all those TR Decepticons (Hasbro version. Besides Skull, I prefer the Hasbro heads.) Just when I think I'm out, I get drawn right back in.

Looking at it again, BW II Galvatron is so weird. He almost feels like an older style figure, like late Japanese G1 or even Brave toy, but with BW aesthetics. His articulation is slightly better than the former, but with the chunkiness and everything its like someone glued a Beast wars head on a scrapped prototype. Actually, considering the BWII Predacons where reused mostly late 80's/early 90's molds I guess that makes sense.

>>5860066
LOOK AT 'IS ROUND HEAD.

>>5860065
Looks like Siren's little boat.

>>5859951
Neat.

>>5860075
He's a later release, Blurr and Scourge weren't delayed they are still coming out on time, they just weren't part of the first Japanese wave.

>>5860075
Still a while ways off for Weirdwolf.

I might just go for whatever I can get, TR if I can actually find it in shops, legends if I have the online funds.

Has anyone tried to separate a Titan Master's legs? I'm lookin' for a bit more articulation and I could use some results to convince me.

>>5859941
>MP Cheetor
Preordered one as well. I really hope they do a MP Tarantulus next, pretty much every fig of him looks like ass.

That, and a Generations Dinobot. There's so many dinosaur molds at this point, surely they could redeco Scorn or something.

>>5860239
Like your penis, too small for the effort.

But nah the jokes only there because someone else was gonna make it.

I think my TM Loudmouth had uneven/deformed antennae in robot mode. Not sure if it was a molding issue, the sprue was cut too close, or I somehow chipped it.

Anyway, it was an eyesore for the two bits to be so uneven so I filed down the other. Sucks, but at least it looks a little more normal now.

>not preordering everything

why do people do this crybaby reissuers are the worst.

Got my SDCC Fort Max today. I didn't realize he was covered in stickers. I guess I should get some kind of sealant to protect them. What should I get?

And I've noticed that the clear plastic door on his chest can potentially get stressed when it catches on the lip of the hinge; what part should I shave off to fix it?

How are the titan master head/vehicle sets? I'm itching to try a few out since I'm mostly sticking to imports,thus waiting a long time between releases. What vehicles seem like thebest? Any cool combos people have discovered?

>>5860419

>>5860419
I really like all of them. They're fun and have a lot of playability once you get more of the figures. That being said, I like Apeface the best. Skytread, Grimlock, and Brawn are my other favorites in no particular order.

>>5860386
Then you get shit like Onslaught's listing on Amazon for a while, that I swear was the same toy just passed between the same three assholes using it to pass money between eachother.
Last I saw it it was approaching 60 bucks. At that point I just said "fuck it' and waited until BBTS had him at brick and mortar retail prices thanks to him being used as the filler voyager for the Sky Reign wave.

>>5860419
They're alright. Crashbash/Clobber is the best hands down.

Crashbash is pretty great. Apeface looks fun too tho.

I just realized Titans return chromedome is literally the same design as Combiner wars Dead End without the combiner plug.

Just how lazy can Hasbro get?

>>5860241
TM Tarantulas is basically show-accurate save for the eyes instead of a visor

>>5860419
the gun modes are goofy in most cases. The head sculpts however look amazing in hand, especially crashbash and Terribull. Also Terribull's head looks good on everything I've put him on so far. I'm hoarding them for my sun when he's older so he can have a nice micro-machine like playset since toys like that just aren't made anymore.

>>5860492

I think they actually admitted to that when they reveal Chromedome.

>Chromedome is a dead end retool meme

here is your (((You))) everyone knows it's the same engineering, but a new mold entirely. Eat a dick.

>>5860495
yes, but his back is one big shell, it's be nice to have one with ab-crunch, wrists, hands that grab things, just more articulation overall. He isn't the best articulated figure in the world.

>>5860492

Nah, it's just like how Energon Starscream used the same ideas for transformation that G2 Smokescreen used.

Some of those ideas would end up on HftD Terradive (with a dash of Cybertron Sideway's wings on legs).

>>5860492
Headmaster cockpit is also handled differently. That whole area transforms like RID15 Bee's roof/windshield do.

>>5860241
Hell, a more accurate redeco of the previous Universe Dinobot would probably be okay. I have the mold and I think it works well enough.

>>5860518
Question, if you could make your own continuity, how would you handle your Headmasters/Titanmasters- Are the bodies separate entities with their own sparks, or are they unintelligent vehicles/suits that require a pilot operate them?

>>5860542
Tiny robots augment their powers with super suit.

>>5860542
The latter, though the system was thought up in the first place for recon (deploying the titan master), and decreasing "critical points" on a tf, as decaptitation normally kills or at leaves a tf inoperable in battle.

>>5860563
Think of how the head attaches, decapitation would still be bad...

>>5860542
Eliminate them completely.

>>5860565
The titan master head doesn't attach that way in official canon, I think.

Either way, I like to think of the bodies being sparkless drones, so even if that did happen the bot could still kinda fight.

The basic drone idea seems the most sensible, but I like the idea that two separate sparks sort of conjoin and become a superior intelligence that is also more skilled than a regular transformer. But a headless body doing things would look really stupid.

Ewww, how could you want Masterpiece toys to be SHOW ACCURATE? That's AWFUL, and SUCKS. They should be a mix of EVERY MEDIA APPEARANCE ever, show accuracy is THE DEVIL

>>5860542
Mine's like the Titans Return storybook, where the headmasters give the individual bots special powers. In addition, headmasters can switch between each other during combat and on the fly. If a headmaster is not connected to a bot for more than 10 seconds the bot is incapacitated until a headmaster fuses with it. However when in head mode the headmaster does not have any personality, the main robot is the one in control. The main robot also needs the headmaster to transform between modes, otherwise it is locked until it can bond with a head.

Any decent sites to preorder MP Cheetor off of for Canadians?

>>5860542

Nebulon scientists find a stasis locked transformer, begin experimenting on it to try and use it as a mecha suit. Everything goes better than predicted, and the man/machine interface ends up performing better than either alone.

Queue Decepticon's stealing the technology and using it for their own ends, and a few Autobots voluntarily submitting to the process, knowing full well it leaves them vulnerable if their co-pilot isn't around.

Did you make it look like its been rubbed with sand paper on purpose?

Got Red Superion for cheap, but I want to make it look better. What can I use to paint it that doesn't cost too much?

Received an order from BBTS today with a bunch of Titans Return stuff.

Skullcruncher: Not impressed. Fiddly and the leg gap is really bad.

Galvatron: also pretty crappy. The face gimmick is as bad as I've heard, and the cannon arm is basically unposeable. Very disappointing.

Wheelie: floppy and can't tab together for crap. C'mon Hasbro really?

Rewind: Not bad for a legends figure.

Clobber/Crashbash: Very happy with these. Best of the bunch.

Oh and got MP Shockwave too, excellent figure.

>Some copies are fine.
Are you sure? The tabbing issue is caused by the steel mold much like the floppiness common throughout CW wave 1's Deadend. It is practically impossible to get a good piece unless they reworked the mold.

>>5860714
Was it pinned in the Takara version? And is it a friction joint on this version?

>>5860594
Going by Japanese pronunciation, it should be GIN-rai, but I don't know if it's purposefully mispronounced JIN-rai or not

Fiddly? Leg gap? What?

Yeah, I skipped him myself.

>Wheelie: floppy and can't tab together for crap. C'mon Hasbro really?

QC strikes again. Mine tabs in perfectly.

>Rewind: Not bad for a legends figure.

He's pretty good, quickly becoming a favorite of mine thanks to his many uses in brick mode.

>Clobber/Crashbash: Very happy with these. Best of the bunch.

Haven't bought any of the heads, don't know what I'd do with'em to be honest.

>Oh and got MP Shockwave too, excellent figure.

Should've saved yourself the $80 bucks and gotten Quakeblast.

>>5860495
That fig's about 20 years old at this point. Surely they could make an update with all the advances they've made in toy technology since then?

For example the vehicle modes. I love me some triple changers, but Transmetal vehicles are pathetic. Doesn't have to be 100% show-accurate, but if it gets the essence of the character across I'm on board.

>Jin still crying about 3P

just go full liberal and back TPP, we don't wanna hear you cry about this anymore. Put up or shut the fuck up.

But we know you're just jealous that they have more talent then you, since you're basically a shitty 3P toy maker that can only make one unauthorized unit at a time, and it's crap.

I wouldn't even be mad, except this store has an entire 2 aisles dedicated to adult toy collectors, chock-full of gundam model kits and anime rapeface figures just waiting to be hot glued.
So it's not like "people who're into a cartoon from the 80s" is a demographic they're actively trying to avoid. Would it kill them to put out some CHUG sets?

>>5860492
Does that mean it can combine?

>>5860883
Nothing wrong with buying 3Ps, it's buying a 3P when there's an existing official version that's objectively way better that's the issue.

It's still pretty lazy to reuse the engineering.

>>5860888
Tried to decide what /toy/ can and can not like. Shilled his ebay page.

>>5860889
Deluxe. Preferrably in scale with the Classic Seeker mold, so they work well next to the Coneheads or classic trio, depending on which set from the new mold you'd want to collect.

We also need them all in consistent decos. Skywarp has a different deco-style than the mass released Thundercracker. (not that it matters since he wasn't released at all where I am) and Ramjet has the Classics update deco which doesn't match the later release of Thrust and Dirge from Generations.

>>5860542
I just treat Transformers as being incredibly adaptable. If their head's removed from their body, that head can adopt a human-sized alt-mode which can scurry away and find itself a new body. It's all plug n play.

I see the bodies less as "unintelligent drones", and more along the lines of two parts of a whole being that can be separated at will. Need a body? Just plug in your head. Don't need a body? Eject. Want a bigger body? Find some other bots and form a Combiner.

>>5860892

Also, they make note of the [exclusive] Battle Face's existence in the face-swap panels of the Hasbro instruction sheet, but there is just the plain face and slightly open smile face in the box.
He -is- (finally) packaged in alt-mode, which is nice because those Bluestreaks we got were backacged in 'bot mode, making for huge boxes. The Hasbro instructions, though, assume you're starting from 'bot mode and changing him to alt mode.
(Guess what those Hasbro Bluestreak instructions were? Alt to 'bot!)

Just finished with the kits.

Kinda funny how the head master is almost the same size as the current head master.
I guess the titan heads can be used to pretend they are in their normal size.

What's the verdict on TR Powermaster Optimus Prime? It looks a hell of a lot less boxy than the CW Optimus, which I appreciate, but apparently it has the same helmet gimmick as Galvatron, which is worrying. Worth it?

>>5860916

Galvatron has a mask. Blaster and PM Prime have full/near full helmets. So it's really not the same.

Hello fellow sdcc owner, I got some suggestions for stickers, a topmost of matte or gloss model paint from a spray can (I use tamiya) could work or even house safe sprays, or you can just apply superglue on the backside as long as it's not the kind that fuses/melts plastic.

As for the doors no idea, mine has been fine but I'm gentle and keep mine like a statue most of the time

Might've just found a cheap seller for Beast Wars Neo Big Convoy. Should I get him? I know he's one of the worse shellformers out there, but damn it, I like that mold.

>>5860972
He's definitely a great example of a shellformer but it's still a really fun toy. Just be careful because it uses that brown swirly plastic.

Are you still seeing AoE toys in stores?

I am.

>>5860985
It's ALL I see. CW and Prime toys have been few and far between, and I haven't seen a single TR one.

>>5860980
The brown swirly plastic has never given my Big Convoy any grief. Transmetal Megatron is the only one who suffers from it.

>>5860916
Feels real cheap, a step down from Magnus.

For some reason the new gift pack release, the side red stickers were placed right in the middle of the chest, where as the old one is above the seam line, and are in the spots where in robot mode, the tips die-cast parts keep rubbing the stickers and destroying them.

Well would you look at that, he may not transform but he does more than what the other not pictured titan class transformers do.

So about repolabel

Do they ship overseas and what kinda of stickers do they use?
Are we talking those gunpla like paper sticker or more expansive foil stickers?

So i'm in london right now and i'm looking for sentinel prime and crashbash. They didn't have any TR figures at hamleys and the RID warriors were overpriced as fuck (more news at eleven) any toy stores or any stores in general where I could find the titans returns line besides smyths ?

I laughed but anon, you did miss the point, to spell it out, the price paid for the product should entail more even to the manual design, comparing it to a lesser figure which could just print it on the back of the box like the rid2015 figures do is beside the point.

Just because bee is microscopic doesn't mean he isn't a high end collectors piece, he's just a disappointment of one.

THAT said hasbro from all their mp's I've gotten have given out sheets, even the seekers, hasbro just don'tcare for the collectors like the japanese.

Deluxe is my preference. I am not as autistic about a small jet as I am about a big car or giant motorcycle. Robot mode scales well with others and it keeps the CHUG Seekers at a decent price point.

I hope Hasbro does the coneheads or other Seekers like Acid Storm and Sunstorm out of the CW jets since I can use them with Galvatronus or Grand Scourge. The only way that will happen is some boxed set.

Yes, all those cheap 5 dollar figures with completely different character models on the box.

FEELS.FUCKING.GOOD.MANG.

>>5861681
Is buying it off bbts cheaper than hlj?

>>5861687
With the current exchange rate? Yeah. If they wanted to be honest, they'd raise the price but it's too late for that.

>>5861687
It's about $142 after shipping. Not sure what HLJ is charging on their shipping but I would think it's more than BBTS.

>>5859805
I thought these were the Legends colors, but just realized it just Crashbash and Clobber partswapped. Guess I will be getting Clobber to make TR Cindersaur.

>>5861699
It's EMS, so a fucking lot (close to 40-50) since this is a huge box.

>>5861699
Oh yeah, you guys get super saver shipping. I wish I cared enough about Computron to drop 150 on him.

>>5861687
The usd/yen dropped considerably since the preorder went up, so unless it rose considerably again It'd actually be cheaper to order from BBTS. As the rate stabilizes it'll probably go back to being easier to import yourself.

I'm sticking with HLJ anyway since The shipping rates for large boxes has stayed more or less steady, and their Proivate warehouse helps a lot. I think their rates for smaller boxes have raised, so if you just order like one or two imports a month it may not be worth it.

>>5861681
Damn, I already ordered mine off Robot Kingdom like a month or two ago when they were the only place that still had preorders for him.

>Want to get UW Computron
>Already have 8 Combiners

Gotta save for the rest of them, I already got too many as it is.

>>5861736
At least you got 8. I only have Superion, Defensor, Devastator and Menasor and I can't even justify buying anymore than that.

>>5861750
I got most of them for cheap, the only one I got at full price was UW Bruticus. I even got regular CW Bruticus for 35.

...Going by the cab, Powermaster Optimus should be about twice as large as Ginrai.

I like that for some reason.

>>5861252

Am I supposed to be jealous?
[hi]because I am[/hey]

>>5861768
What I still can't understand is why are the windows so sunken into the cab on both molds, looks weird.

>>5861758
It's mostly that I didn't care for the other combiners of the line. I would have gotten a UW Bruticus if I didn't decide to start getting TFC Hades. I just want a Liokaiser.

>>5861798

Not a bad idea. If Takara doesn't make a new Leokaiser, you have Hades, and if their Leokaiser somehow manages to be decent, you can either keep both, sell Hades for a nice profit.

>>5861768
Honestly I like them both. Ginrai looks like a super robot, while Optimus looks like a big, bulky bruiser, just like how I like my Optimus designs. I'm only getting Ginrai because I want him to go with MP star saber, and Lio/Big/Fire Convoy as a JP Leaders shelf, but if I wan't swamped with Optimus toys by now I'd be getting the TR one, too.

Maybe its weird, but I just can't register the Legends one as Optimus. I know he isn't, but considering they shared the same toy origin as designs go I think that's pretty impressive. It makes the look its own.

>>5861803
I don't really want to sell Hades though. He checks a lot of boxes for me and I don't really care about his wobbly legs since I don't go retarded with how I pose my toys. I might only sell them IF we get a Liokaiser that is either MP scaled (which coincidentally even if TFC didn't want their Hades to be MP scaled it kinda end up as one) or another 3p company makes one that is EXTREMELY close to the G1 version; then I might sell it. Other than that even if they reissue the G1 in 3 years for the 30th year anniversary of Victory, I would keep the Hades.

This asshole doesn't care.

>>5861905
Honestly the John Warden team is the first time I've ever felt like the transformers team really wanted to attempt to do a complete update of g1. Other teams would do an 84 character here, and 86 character there, with no real pattern. the missing headmasters are unfortunate, but I think we'll get them eventually. We just get far less new classics molds a year than G1 ever got.

Regarding Fruticus
Does it's Vortex suffers from weak handfootgun port like the other mold brothers?

>>5861921
Yes, I've only seen an alteration no that mold once, and it was just shaving off some plastic in the UW version of Bruticus.

>>5861905
What if some of the original HM were going to be completelly ignored and he pushed for atleast include them as heads for the fans?

they're very difficult to remold into another character, and on top of that, they need to have at least SOME of the titan masters be recognizable characters.
The triple changing monsterbots are pretty unlikey because they have to be a voyager, too

Finally today is the day I find some of the Wave 1 Deluxes in stores. Hardhead is the first one I messed around with and he's great.

tfw no Takara heads

>>5861986
I wish they would do a Hasbro release of the heads

>>5861992
They might as later alone head guys in different as late-line filler

>>5861976

Pic related, if you're talking about Hardhead and Skullcruncher. Thats a $30+ bullet you just dodged.

Someone finally gave Sentinel a better paintjob! Not enough yellow to be right, but still way better.

Why does Blurr have a landing gear on the top of his hood? Is it just a leftover from the Brainstorm remold?

>>5862065
It's for the head man to ride in it.

Somebody finally gave Sentinel some good colors. Still hoping Takara does him in his comic colors though.

>>5862065

You detach it, turn it upside down, flip out the landing gear, then it's a lil' bobsled for the headmasters.

>>5862075
Amazing!

Were the orange parts repainted with a new orange paint, or was it left alone?

One recolor I'd like to see is using TFA's Sentinel Prime's colors.

I think they're just poking fun at conservatives in general. Roberts is a Britbong and incredibly invested in his own countries politics so I doubt he'd only be referring to Trump here.

>>5862230
Hm. Aren't there a buncha Marvel comics doing something like that, too?

>>5862237
Probably.
Only I imagine it's far more out of place and forced seeing how Marvel comics aren't focused nor revolve around politics like exRiD does.

That and Marvel has gone really far down the shitter.

>>5862250
Nah, there was the time that the secret government conspiracy of evil had Nixon as the leader and when Cap found out he killed himself. And how the Avengers had to constantly get governmental approval to operate and Falcon was put on the team because of affirmative action. Or how mutants literally had government-funded killing machines sent after them at times. Or how Spider-Man was at a rally complaining about raising the costs of low-income housing was forcing poor people out. Or any WWII or Cold War propaganda comic.
