Think I've worked out a small bit of the new MP Megs' transformation. It's dauntingly clever. Discuss.

>>5902549
I can't figure out why but the more I see that Astrotrain the more I dislike it. It just gets old for me so quickly

>>5902549
I dunno, I'm pretty biased towards the alt modes
I'm also of the opinion Sentinel Prime could've worked better as a PW Optimus remold

His alt modes look beautiful, but I prefer the robot mode on Hasbro.

If there was an Astrotrain with Hasbro's colors and Takara's color layout, it would be my ideal.

>>5902558
I mean, IDW Sentinel alt mode was an armored and heavily weaponized truck thing, why he should be a train?

Yup, looks like there's a chunk of smooth plate covering it up in gun mode that flips up and folds over onto his back in bot mode. Cheeky bastards. You can kinda see it hanging off his back in this pic.

>>5902578
Holy shit, they combined with Swindle barely functioning?

>>5902571

I'm unsure right now.

The mold QC is the deciding factor for me.

>>5902584
they done it before with scrapper in idw, but the result gave him a dead foot because he wasn't functional.

Looks like what's happening here is causing far more serious issues

>>5902591
hasbro astrotrain has a tight neck, slightly sloppy paint apps and some anons claimed some of the parts look like they weren't molded properly.

Takara can potentially fuck up, but it'd have to be something major or a shitload of small qc issues

>>5902564
As long as you don't live in a a dictatorship like straya and it's properly labeled as a toy/replica and has the orange cap then there shouldn't be problem. To my knowledge, MP05 was frequently modified to have the orange cap by international sellers so I don't see why this would be any different if it's being sold by people who know better.

It'll raise some alarms in customs but it should clear. If/when I order mine I'll probably try to get in contact with wherever I order it from to see if they can 1: stick in orange cap on that barrel and 2: just open it beforehand and ship it in robot mode for me. Just to try and make shit as smooth as possible.

I'd love a re-do of classics Astrotrain to give him a better robot mode

>>5902617
Swindle got turned into a vegetable by Starscream after the latter cut a deal with him. Before he sunk cold Swindle told Rattrap that he had proof that Starscream cut a deal with him. Following that, someone leaked info to Onslaught that Swindle was alive, slowly leading to this, an attempt to find the proof that Starscream cut a deal with Swindle.

>>5902634
The Combaticons combined so they could access Swindle's memories?

>>5902636
Basically

>>5902641
That sounds interesting. Which comic does this all happen in, and how much prior reading is needed to get it?

>>5902643
Read Combiner Wars, then read Til All Are One, which is the series this takes place.

>>5902562
Only looked like it because he's wearing the Apex Armor.

>>5902634
What was the deal?

>>5902702
False flag operation by Starscream (Current leader of Cybertron, btw) to both attack and defend a transformer colony with combiners so they'd have his trust. Swindle thought he'd be looting the colony with Menasor.

>>5902617
This will be the first time the Combaticons have combined in IDW, but it's not the first time the team have been featured. the International Incident story has most of the team, but fucks it up by having Onslaught NOT being the master planner, and everyone admits it was Swindle that made the team's plans.

IDW wasn't very good during that time.

>>5902715
They also show up in Spotlight Arcee, the rest of their appearances was just cameos.

>>5902715
Ongoing was such a garbage series

>>5902719
I know. I don't expect them to know every little thing about a group of characters, but Onslaughts entire role is being the leader and strategist, yet they give that to Swindle?

Also, while I'm glad it was ignored, it's kind of funny Brawl cares about Swindle after he was almost killed by him.

>>5902578
>>5902579

Wait, is there a storytime up on /co/?

>>5902592
>>Looks like what's happening here is causing far more serious issues

It'll probably be the excuse for Bruticus being a retard, and possibly be an excuse for jumpstarting Swindle's brain so he is functional in the comic.

>>5902845
>importing
>instead of buying from someone who went through the hassle already

I'll never understand this. So much more can go wrong, and the shipping is outrageous.

>>5902553

Yup the bi-valve legs similar to Shockwave lets them get over the biggest hurdle in g1 Meg's design, his forced legs. It's like half the mass of the alt mode already spoken for and results in the rest of the figure trying to work around the baggage and always looks forced as a result in MP-5 and all the 3p's.

This is as big as Prime's fake grill in terms of freedom. I have to hand it to them this blows me away when I had no faith in the line after Hasui's departure.

>>5902845

Stupid is having customs open up your Revoltech Trigun figure for having the word 'gun'. I'm not making this up.

>>5902553
Aaaaand Despotron preorder cancelled. I'm glad I didn't preorder from a place that got it in stock yet.

>>5902848
>instead of buying from someone who went through the hassle already

Most of the time that winds up being way more expensive

>>5902860
This. Same product and service at a cheaper price, why would I spend more?

>>5902854
Hopefully they at least put it back right.

I've heard some mean horror stories about customs tearing shit apart and putting things back in the parcel loose

>>5902862
Well, you pay more to get it faster.
It's a matter of how much you want to spend to get it faster I suppose

>>5902860
>>5902862

Shipping costs from wherever the fuck end up making up the difference if you want your thing in under 3 months.

>>5902865
>Well, you pay more to get it faster.
I don't. I always use SAL and whatever the cheapest air mail service is called in China. Waited 8-10 days isn't gonna kill me.

>>5902865

The two trench coat tails in the back are still missing to this day and think it also prompted them to check the other boxes it was bundled with since those boxes were fucked up too but not missing anything at least.

That said I think the problem is overstated and most toy shops that cater to different countries probably just opt to put orange plugs on everything instead of segregating cases to save time and money.

>>5902873
>MP Grapple from Japan with shipping (about 2 weeks) : $110

Well, it's your money.

>>5902897
That's my only concern. I don't want to open my pre-opened shockwave and realize some fuck left the hands on his desk or confiscated the tiny shockwave he comes with because it could be mistaken for a gun.

It's not as though customs root through everything.
"they opened my shit" complaints never seem to extend past the gunformers

It always amuses me how America is so quick to condemn and make fun of the actions of other countries, when their house is so fucked up themselves. You shake your head at China for putting a kid in jail for buying guns, yet turn your head to the fact that your police officers straight up kill black kids for playing with toy guns.

America points the finger at other countries for housing terrorist groups, when America has housed and even funded one of the most violent terrorist organizations in the world (The Ku Klux Klan).

Found lg Scourge but am having a hard time trying to justify the price over the hasbro ver, it doesn't even include an extra TM vehicle like Hardhead, I guess I'll just paint the american ver, anyone feeling the same?

>>5903061

I want the Tak Scourge and Blurr too, but yeah, the $40 base price point is pretty fucking harsh for nothing but extra paint.

And this is coming from someone who just blew a bunch of cash on 3P stuff.

>>5903061
If I took booth of them on their own merits, literally the only thing I prefer on the takara scourge is the centered decepticon badge. Either are fine versions of the toy.

Unfortunately because I'm a bitch for cartoon accuracy and there's just too much that has to be painted on the hasbro version.

I'd warn you that Combiner Wars is one of those toy-mandated events and thus was rushed, had to shoehorn in some characters a bit sloppily and didn't use the regular art team for a lot of it. I don't mean to rain on your fun, I'm telling you this just in case you get into CW and find it a bit sub-par - it's not indicative of the usual level the comics operate at.

Also for anyone in Michigan, the Walmart in 6460 has some of the new Titans in stock, handful of Animated, the large, $35 or so class of Skywarp and another TF and some of those new Minicons.

Oh shit I didn't even notice bomb burst. He could be a mindwipe repaint, or it could be a repaint of brainstorm or triggerhappy representing the inner robot.

But I'm betting a robot mode based on the inner robot (triggerhappy head?) with some blue, and then a bat mode based on the pretender shell. If that happens I'll cum buckets.

I mean, they probably wouldn't make a whole new mold if it was just being used for mindwipe, honestly.

Yeah, I can't say I'm particularly excited for anything until the next line.

I never cared for the Headmaster gimmick. OK, fine, don't buy those toys. But they shoehorned it into every level of the line this year and next year from the looks of things. It really hurts an otherwise decent Galvatron and selling other random characters as bodyless heads is dumb. Can't say I'm chomping at the bit to buy a Marvel Crossovers quality triplechanging Megatron or Prime either.

Dreading to see how they decide not to paint Nautica and how the gimmick ruins Broadside. Overlord and Sixshot might be big enough that it doesn't interfere but who knows.

So wait, if Snapdragon gets his own figure then would Apeface also? Or is this Snapdragon going to suffer the same fate as Apeface? Fine out next time on the next episode of Shitty Chinese Leaks!

Also,
>Deathsaurus
>Black Shadow
If these are actually happening I will be so FUCKING happy.

>>5903665
Snapdragon is under "unconfirmed" so the size isn't determined yet. Likely another head only

>>5903061
Get both Scourges, switch their thighs, and you have decent representations of both the G1 toy and G1 cartoon Scourges.

>>5903665

I'm guessing Snap will be a head, unless they're gonna do like 5-6 waves minimum for TR, since we're already know/have an idea of what wave 3 and 4 will probably have.

Black Shadow I can see getting another figure just to go with Overlord/Sixshot, so the full Phase Sixer team has current toys. Remember, IDW sells, and that sells toys.

>>5903673
Except Black Shadow only showed up once in the present, and died immediately? That wouldn't normally make a transformers fan suddenly care about him (unlike Ironfist, who still doesn't have a new toy).

>>5903061
>Found lg Scourge but am having a hard time trying to justify the price over the hasbro ver,

Nice to live in a place where the difference between Takara Legends deluxe (with any TM vehicle) and Hasbro TR deluxe is only about 6 usd.

So I've not been into transformers for a really long time and I want to get a new one when I head out tommorow, what are some good newly released ones?
I think the last one I actually bought was that Toaster from the michael bay movies just because of how ridiculous it was.

>>5903698
Ardhed, Waifucroc, Buttwipe, pretty much every TR thing except Galvatron really.

>>5903684
Who gives a shit? He's a phase sixer, that's all that matter

>>5903698
Blurr's really good, Hardhead's also pretty cool but he doesn't have a waist swivel. Skullsmasher's a good toy, but unless you have Future, his hips are going to be really loose.

Legends Shockwave with Cancer comic.

Cancer is approached by Shockwave, who sees great idol potential in the boy and asks him to become one to help improve the image of the Decepticons in the Legends Universe. On the advice of Browning, Cancer realizes that if he becomes famous, he can use the opportunity to fulfill his dream of spreading the word of the Chōryūken dojo and honoring his sensei. He accepts, and is soon singing and dancing before an audience thanks to Shockwave, who acts as his manager and is glad that his plan to provide backup for Megatron's peaceful Decepticon takeover of the world is succeeding.

The concert is suddenly crashed by Skullcruncher, the Decepticon Headmaster faction still being opposed to the use of peaceful methods, and Shockwave swears to defend Cancer just as he used to defend Cybertron. To his surprise, Cancer joins him in the battle by transforming into his armored Headmaster Junior form, revealing that he used to be a Decepticon warrior too! With Cancer manning his gun mode, Shockwave sends Skullcruncher flying with a mighty blast. Afterwards, Cancer tells his manager that he left the Decepticons because he thought they were just a bunch of killers, and Shockwave answers that he supports Megatron's vision of peaceful Decepticons, but worries about his leader being manipulated by evil minds like the Headmasters. The two vow to work together to make the Decepticons a clean and friendly organization... starting with having Cancer sign 300 CDs for his fans.

Next up is the Legends Blurr comic.

Blurr fondly remembers his time searching for a new home planet with Rodimus Prime, which came to an end when Rodimus became a Micromaster and asked him to help settle on Micro. Being prideful of his speedy body, he couldn't stand the thought of trading it in for a Micromaster equivalent and ran away to join Fortress's crew... where he ended up losing his body and becoming tiny anyway, leaving him wishing he'd accepted Rodimus's proposal to begin with.

The melancholic Blurr is approached by Longarm, chief clerk of the Axalon Trading Company, who cheers him up by presenting him with a new body and asks him to use it to defeat a returned Galvatron. He first protests that he could never take on Galvatron by himself, but sets out after Longarm convinces him that he can do it with the speed of his new body. Once he's gone, Longarm removes his Autobot badge and reveals his true identity to be Shockwave, who knows only the Autobots can turn Galvatron back into the level-headed Megatron. Blurr runs circles around Galvatron, who responds by blasting his head and back piece off, but he's fast enough to transform and ride the detached part straight into Galvatron's head, knocking it off. Weirdwolf and Tarantulas, who this time had Mindwipe hypnotize Megatron into Galvatron, see that the effect has worn off and retreat with Galvatron's body.

With his speed restored, Blurr becomes a deliveryman of Autobot Axalon products, but he's so talkative that he ends up chatting with customers instead of having them sign his deliveries.

>>5903712
>>5903714
It's a quality figure. If any other company put him out people would be raving. He is just connected to the X-Transbots shitty reputation which permanently scars him as a figure because

Legends Scourge and the Sweeps prologue.

The six identical Sweeps, loyal soldiers of Galvatron, are introduced:
Sweep No. 1 is their self-styled leader, Scourge, a sleazy sycophant. Waspinator chimes in to point out that his voice sounds like that of Thundercracker.
Sweep No. 2 is a pessimist who thinks bad things are always happening to him. He sounds like Astrotrain.
Sweep No. 3 is a selfish, forceful jerk who's always ordering others around. He sounds just like Blast Off.
Sweep No. 5 is calm and thoughtful, always being deep in thought about something, and disapproves of Scourge being the leader. His voice sounds like Skywarp's.
Sweep No. 6 is a cheerful fella who likes to shout "six!" a lot and gets along with Sweep No. 7. He's got Superion's voice.
Sweep No. 7 is a natural airhead with a tendency to gasp for breath even though he doesn't need to breathe. He sounds a bit like Blurr.

Galvatron wonders why there's no Sweep No. 4, and Scourge explains No. 4 is dead, Galvatron himself having told him to "meet his end with dignity". No. 4 then appears as a ghost behind Galvatron, scaring him.

And recently posted online, the Legends Scourge and the Sweeps comic.

Scourge and the Sweeps, former enforcers of Galvatron, have been reduced to janitors in the Legends Universe. One day they're approached by Terrorsaur, manager of Decepticon Tera-Kura Co.'s assembly lines, who offers to mass-produce new bodies for them in exchange for a favor: kidnapping Alpha Trion.

While one Sweep succeeds, the crime is spotted and they're all brought to the police by Ai, but she can't figure out who to arrest since they're all identical. Scourge confesses to being the culprit, explaining that now that Alpha Trion is essentially the Matrix, he's placed the sage in his chest to make himself a million times stronger! He breaks out of captivity and flies to Tera-Kura, where he announces that he's in control now and will kill anyone who resists. Terrorsaur thanks him, revealing this was all part of his plan to take over the company, but the super-powered Scourge reneges on the deal and blasts him, refusing to share leadership with anyone. The Sweeps, however, argue that the Matrix's power belongs to all of them and swarm over their leader in an attempt to have him share it, with Sweep No. 7 managing to Head-On to another part of his body and force it to transform. The ensuing turmoil causes the Matrix energy to overload Scourge's body, which explodes (and is mistaken for fireworks by witnesses).

Alpha Trion, completely unscathed thanks to what he claims is "daily training", takes it upon himself to train the Sweeps in the janitorial arts. Scourge hasn't given up on his ambition, however—he knows that there exists an even greater power source than the Matrix known as the Zodiac, and someday it will be his...

He actually has less weapons in robot mode, and ramming works better in train mode since the front of the train would cause more damage than simply ramming them as a robot.

>It's all glittery and has swirls in it
Having a very tight toy budget and not particularly liking the Generations version, I bought it.
Jutting head socket aside, it feels fucking solid, and once I took some silver paint to it, I couldn't be happier with how it looked.

Also all this fucking projecting on both ends.

Hey don't get me wrong, I said I didn't plan on getting ANY versions of Galvy and Scourge but I already have LG Skullcruncher and the other Takara Headmaster guys I already have on the way or is in pre-order at HLJ. Money I definitely have but it's the case of do I want it or not.

Like I said, I buy what I like. I buy both Takara and Hasbro depending on what I feel about the character/toy.

I don't know, some of them are quite reasonable. You just have to talk to them really calmly and in an soft voice cause loud noises scare them.

>thread about transformers toys

be honest. The only reason 3rd party general was made was because TFG threads are too shitposty (evidence all above for the past 100 posts) and we already eat through a TFG every 6-8 hours it seems. It would be worse if we were all compiled together in the same thread. The shitposting of people liking what others don't like would go through the god damn roof.

To answer the question the figure is fine. It isn't out yet, but MMC makes a damn good toy.

>>5903183
I can hear my wallet crying.

>>5904109
I think I'll be fine. I only want Overlord, Black Shadow, and Predaking (I like the Terrocons uncombined, but Abominus has never looked good to me).

And this is assuming their toys look good.

>>5904109
>>5904111

I'm going to assume Predaking is going to be the intended molds, and Abominus the premold. Time will tell, of course.

Honestly beastbots would lend themselves to the CW stuff pretty easily given most animal bots are just 4 legs+tail+head, and as Weirdwolf and Skullcruncher have shown, thats super easy to do well.

>>5904129

Obviously he does, given he just gave us 3 of the best non-3P beastformers ever produced.

Got TR Galvatron today, but mine's pretty fucked up. The Headmaster can barely stay attached in head mode, and the side-swivel of the left hip joint has no grip at all which makes him almost impossible to pose from the waist-down, not even sure how I can fix that.

I'm pretty sure whoever designed the cannon never tested it either, it can barely move at all

The third party thread is nothing like this. I have never seen so much shitposting in a toy thread Jesus Christ.

>>5904177
The difference is not being a poorfag is a pre-requisite for buying third party. So the third party thread filters out all the poorfags that would otherwise start shitposting.

It clearly puts Nautica under Deluxe you massive retard

No, we can. It's just the difference between 1 figure a month and 5-8.

The superior plastic quality and heavier weight really stimulate my prostate right.

>>5904189

That's what Yong La Cuck wants you to believe

It's heavier because they inject their shit into the plastic, adding weight. Doesn't mean its better

Yeah

Might give in to scalper price on ebay, which are almost identical to the store price.

>>5904221

Don't give in just yet. It's obvious Brainstorm hasn't hit retail yet because no one seems to have him except people who bought'em from asian countries.

>>5904211
Pretty good, especially Chromedome. One thing that really bothers me is Highbrow's loose head. The mini legs can barely stay in place.

>>5904226
It seems like only very specific figures got the dignity of pinned titanmaster hips. Those tend to stay mostly solid. Usually I stick a tiny bit of tin foil into the joint or something and it stays a lot better.

>>5903626

It's refreshing to finally see MPs with the attention payed on the actual fucking robot modes instead of blowing budgets on retarded licensed decos.

Looks like Australia stepped it up with transformers in general, ALL major retailers have titan returns, our targets got the one step collection pack with the "exclusive" one step optimus (its nice to look at this set but I wouldn't pay a cent for anything of their nature, I just like the look of boxed sets) and now the weaponizers have come.

Did they really think the puck like deployers would be any good, having them fit into deployers AND 5mm post would of helped them out so much, now I'm gonna stick these into my Jetwhore.

The nightbeat here however may not remain stock for long, gonna emulate takara's paint scheme but in minerva colors, I can't change the face with paint alone but she'll fit in with the JP headmaster crew better.

I was gonna get the takara nightbeat but I might just grab 2 hasbro ones instead thanks to discounts I can acquire now, that and rewind is gonna be on special in another chain along with blaster, I wanted that takara blaster but I can save a shitload of money this way.

I just wish the deluxes came out faster, would of gotten the hasbro deluxes over the more expensive legends ones, oh well.

TLDR its a good day to be an Australian collector

>>5904242
Wow I don't even see the Wave 2 weaponizers (that sawtooth and dragonus) in Singapore yet.

I thought something was odd about the assortments.

TRU had the hammer dude and the lord dominitus or whatever he is and target had the dragonus and sawback or whatever he is, um if you don't mind me asking which is which?

I haven't gotten around to watching rid (waiting for a blueray box set but all we have is season one dvd) or been following the line closely I just thought these guys were nifty
