AAAND same as harddome (little joke for my friend >>6038959 who is deluded, its just not bumpable and sinking, also you use cuck incorrectly), you buy the over priced takara for the head alone.

I ask though, how many here own a mixed headmaster crew, or do we all seek a uniform collection?

Do you have all 8 Headmaster Autobots?

That is, all four from both companies. Idk if Brainstorm is out yet or not.

For for those curious, we know the difference between mp10 and red alert, but what about ironhide?

Here we are, one is a marvel for how big and stocky they become, one just hides a ladder in his body, now the real question, hasbro version with toy accurate markings when?

>>6038967
I don't, I bought a CHROMEHEAD for a MANERVA custom, I bought a skullcruncher for my megaaligator head coming, messed around with the others and studied others inbox only like highbrow.

Brainstorm is technically out but I was on the fence, in the end despite many (cheap) ways to get him I let the pre-order run out and stuck to takara for a complete set, I wish you good luck finding a hasbro version, even the sdcc version sold loose is hard to get now (and the walgreens version, while dull in colors is quite varied, loved the sticker detail on the wings).

Truthfully I would of bought only the hasbro versions (got a twinferno and triggerhappy recently, quite pleased) but I thought they would of been held up by the cw waves clogging up shelves, it seems only thing clogging shelves are wave 1 legends and wave one blasters, so no sixshot for me from tr but PLENTY of wave 3 deluxes for everyone
>>
>>6038965
I dig Takara's white a bit more, though I'm not sure I'd get either. As for Chromedome I might bite on the Legends release if only for the slightly nicer paintjob and little colour-matched drill vehicle.

Doubt you'll get much different over reviewers but mine are tight, I find the leg connection to twinferno's dragon mode legs to his body strange but it works.

Anything you want specifically?

Twinferno's got 5mm ports on his wings and on his hands BUT he has an additional set of connectors for his included guns in combined mode, the dragon heads clearly can't hold weapons but they spaced the pins to do the job well

Trigger happy has ports under his wings, side of the main guns as pictured

>>6038987
Um...triggerhappy?

I find it fine personally with what he comes with but if it bothers you that much maybe skytrend or something, I paint so anything with a scowl could almost work for me

Hardhead, the green one. Skullcruncher is hindered by his leg situation (his joints there are loose and his feet aren't the most stable). Blurr could be the best but his plastic colors can be divisive. Scourge is just decent.

Besides those issues, the thing that gives Hardhead the edge in my opinion is his cannon. It can interact with Titan Masters, but the hinged cover helps make it look good when it's unoccupied. The platform the cannon is on is surprisingly well-articulated, and gives you a lot of options in both modes. The platform can also accept other 5mm weaponry, his robot mode is nicely chunky, and his tank mode is fun to pilot.

Here are the interior cockpits, twinferno's sits down while the body remains in an upright position, for triggerhappy's you need to "break" the nose first as pictured, seat him in, then with legs stretched out fold the nose in.

Triggerhappy has alot of "play" into him, gerwalk modes are great for him, while twinferno is limited.

That said both come with twin tamashii peg holes, one in twinferno's cockpit window, one under triggerhappy's under-bar where the cockpit assembly spins around on, while trigger happy has landing gear BOTH figures can be posed in natural flight poses as well as crotch connectors for robot mode, something I haven't found in the first waves

>>6039002
I just splayed them out because the thought amuses me, they come down for robot, up for jet to lock the legs in, or you can make him look wide
>>
Anyone else surprised how much Galvatron is shelfwarming compared to his wavemate?
>>
>>6039005
It has to be the negative reception towards his head and face. He seems to be a decent figure in every other aspect than that dumb crown gimmick.
>>
>>6039005
He's kind of an eh looking toy all around unless you really like his G1 design, which turns off regular shoppers, and anyone that knows better knows his head is garbage, turning off collectors.
>>
>>6039003
Dang, they have separate stand-holes for their alt modes? That's great.

And as you can see, I'm bad at posing, so I have fun instead.

I know right?

I find triggerhappy's "flight" hole a little loose compared to twinferno's which is a little tight (and its clear plastic) but both work find, I hope more flight-able deluxes include this feature
>>
>>6038988
Rewind, I love almost everything in recent Legends class though.
>>
>>6039005
I see them both shelf warming but galvatron is slower than I expected, truly terrible but expected, guess even kids see issues with the face.

Funny enough where I am wave 2 creeped in early and those alpha trions and astrotrains flew off, they also came timely within a toy sale, ended up buying astrotrain despite a takara pre-order for an astrotrain army

Wait, aren't you Austrailian? You have pretty good lighting for 2AM.

I definitely want Triggerhappy out of the wave of deluxes though. The designers have really knocked it out of the park.
>>
>>6039040
>someone remembered me
Oh shucks.

Actually its nearly 4am, where my work table sits is right next to a lamp (its good for "fun" pics but for taking pic of models I've been told I have permanent "mood lighting").

Triggerhappy is the best out of the wave, if one wants to nitpick paint apps are kinda rough (mine has a eyelash on his mouthplate sealed in, but the other on the pegs looked worse) and the plastic grey used is meh, but thats really nitpicking, design wise he's what we need from transformers, he poses well (wrist swivels!), lots of fan mode options, peg holes for posing on stands, and he's quite involved (I'm used to twisting hips around but not the upper chest as well, been awhile since I seen that) yet he's just outright fun.

I wonder who he could be retooled into

People say he resembles Cyclonus a bit. How easily could he be made into the purple bunny?
>>
>>6039053
Well he'll have a shitty head without the use of a helmet giving him horns ie batman's ears aren't pointy enough arguement.

Otherwise with a bit of tooling on the arms he could be a cyclonus
>>
>>6039058
They could pull a Scourge/Blurr and give him pull-out horns.

>Wrist Swivels are a luxury now

I'd totally grab Twinferno if his dragon heads could rotate. Can't stand gorilla arms.

Also, can you give a breakdown on Trigger Happy's articulation? I've heard he has a waist swivel just for robot mode, but I want to be sure.

They're bicep curl arms. TR hot rod has what you would call gorilla arms.
>>
>>6039080
The ones that have clear plastic inlaid in a solid plastic for windows are really neat though, like the Ratchet/Ironhide mold.

The molds that are like 99% painted clear plastic, like Bumblebee, can go suck a dick though.
>>
>>6039080
Why?
>>
>>6039075
I got it wrong, I sadly make the same of calling forarms swivels wrist swivels as the hands need to fold in, maybe its past 4am, maybe I'm just stupid, take your pick.

Generally pretty well, I find all tr figures are the same with just some exceptions (like hardhead's waist), he's got a waist swivel, arm wings don't get too much in the way, legs bend well as its required for transformation, and of course the FORARM swivel (sorry again for the screw up in phrases).

And its a missed opportunity on the dragon heads, if they could he could of been a lean mean meme machine.

Eh. I don't actually want one. The MP is pretty much all the Hot Rod I'll ever need.

>>6039093
No idea. I've been waiting on the comics to do a crossover, since lately the Transformers and TMNT have been crossing over with everything.

Leo + Optimus
Raph + Sideswipe
Donnie + Wheeljack
Mikey + Bumblebee

This shit writes itself. I might go out and pick up the other mega bloks turtles so I can pose them with the appropriate MPs.

>>
>>6039125
Party dude. I mean yeah Bee and toon Mikey were both made as the kid friendly ones, but they don't share a personality like the others do.
>>
>>6039127
Galvatron perhaps? The TR one kinda sucks and Scattershot can be finagled into a pretty decent cannon mode. Would require a lot of work but it could be cool.
>>
>>6039130
Jazz was a "party dude" in some sense, but he also had a serious, dutiful side that Mikey kind of lacked.
>>
>>6039139
Mikey can too. I mean raph was more joking than Mikey was considering all the 4th wall breaking. But bee hardly had personality.
>>
>>6039153
It all ultimately matters on the versions of the characters. Current IDW Mikey and Jazz are actually a really good match for each other. They're both compassionate, introspective and fun-loving, but involved in a fight that they don't want to be a part of.

I'll be honest, I watched TMNT a hell of a lot more than I did the original Transformers cartoon, and outside of the first few episodes, I don't remember Mikey ever being serious about anything. He was pretty much just a kid-appeal fuck-up. Bee was actually pretty competent, but I get the feeling he'd tolerate Mikey more than most other Autobots.

Careful with Wolfwire, I've opened the cockpit on mine once or twice only and one of the little hinges broke in no less than five separate places, I feel as soon as I try opening it again I'll have a small pile of yellow plastic bits on my desk.

...but no Transformers/Ninja Turtles. I say 2017 is the year.
>>
>>6039647
It has to happen. But maybe they're holding off since its a giant robot war and the guys only rarely see stuff like that unless it's off planet.

>>6039636
I only wanted the team because of a KO set I had like 9 years ago from big lots. Still my favorite of the teams. Minus blades. Dislike that mold.
>>
>>6039646
I think it's a store. Also the name of a powerup in Barkley Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden IIRC.
>>
>>6039652
They should probably do a crossover out-of-continuity, since currently in IDW, the Autobots and Decepticons are rubbing elbows and Splinter and the Turtles have taken control of the foot clan after Shredder's death. The real fun of a crossover would be within the status quo.
>>
>>6039663
A totally 80s Sunbow/Fred Wolf crossover would be the best way to do it I think. The Autobots are introduced to mutated organic threats while the Turtles face bigger evil robots than usual. All the bad guys are bumbling. Mutagen Ooze turns out to be the most potent form of Energon.
>>
>>6039671
That could happen. The comic versions crossed over with comic turtles and now the current toon turtles are crossing over with BTAS batman so all that's left is wolf and 2003 turtles.

>You know, until CW I never really gave a shit about these guys
Same. I always used to think of members of the combiner teams as just a piece of a gestalt and not much more.

The Combaticons and Stunticons changed my mind on that, though. They're all pretty neat characters.

I like the Protectobots and Technobots, too, but they don't seem to be quite as unique personality-wise. Blades and First Aid, sure. The others idk.
>>
>>6039662
>>6039646

I wish they'd feature the combiner teams a bit more often in the current comics.

You know, without killing half of them, anyway.
>>
>>6039689
Meh. Combiners never appealed to me as toys or in a story, especially when there are so many of them. Maybe if there were only one or two, but when everything can suddenly combine, it just shines through as the shallow marketing ploy it so obviously is.
>>
>>6039689
So far:

-Technobots were barely characters, then they killed most of them.
-The combaticons have gotten plenty of development recently. Vortex is still iffy, but it's something.
-The Predacons haven't gotten anything, only off-hand comments.
-Aerialbots barely got development as a group.
-Protectobots only have development for First-Aid, the others were nobodies until now.
-Terrorcons got some development early on, the got split and one of their members got killed (Blot).
-Contructions are treated as a single entity.
>>
>>6039704

Theres not that many canon combiner teams, especially when compared to everything else out there.

Though yeah, the CW storyline is pretty much forced by Hasbro in the comics. Same with TR. Clear marketing pushes.

>>6039712

The Predacons had some early development, though I don't think they ever combined and they haven't been around in a while IIRC. Still, they were at least known for being ridiculously deadly.

Aerialbots got at least one member killed.

And yeah I liked the current Combaticon stuff.

There's a Transformers sale on HLJ. You even get some store credit when you buy stuff. This caught my eye. Its so fucking cheap, it's practically free. I know it's no Masterpiece, but it might look good on my desk.

Shame. I cancelled my pre-order for him once Grapple got announced, because he looks a million times less boring, but overall the mold still looks great. The few panel lines on the shins and the diagonal stripes go a long way to spice up the deco, though.

Anybody else ever feel like Transformers are the only toy you truly like?

I think the biggest appeal is the transformation, I've bought a few other figures in recent years, even from franchises that I really like, but if a toy doesn't transform, it doesn't hold my interest. It's that extra appeal of engineering that keeps me fiddling with these guys while other toys get played with and posed for a month or two, then put away or sold.
>>
>>6039887
I like plenty of other stuff, from Gundams to Legos, but indeed, nothing really captivates me like TFs.
>>
>>6039898
>Lego
This is the only other thing that gets me, because it's also interactive. I love breaking sets down and rebuilding things with limited pieces, but any toy that offers posing as its only feature just leaves me wanting. I love Legend of Zelda, and recently bought the Link Between Worlds Figma, and I fiddled with it for maybe a week or two before leaving it on the shelf and hardly touching it. Meanwhile, I've been playing with MP-10 for 6 years.

he is loved thanks to nostalgia and the fact he is the only official G1 inspired Gnaw transformer made since the original.
Much like Galvatron and Wreckgar (actaully most post movie guys) they get very few official toys inspired by their G1 counterpart so it makes people forgive a lot of shit they shouldn't.

So I missed out on getting Combiner Wars Defensor when he first came out (since distribution in my area is absolute shit and I was too stupid to buy online), and I'm thinking of picking up a set now. Should I go for the Hasbro release (with or without the exclusive Groove), or just go right for the impending wallet rape with Unite Warriors Defensor.

I mostly have just Hasbro's combiners (Superion, Menasor, and Bruticus), with the only UW I have being Computron. Just wondering which one would fit in better with the other combiners

Not at all however most other toy brands I enjoy are not as widely produced. GI Joe is obscure now, and Xevos were discontinued years ago.
TFs are the only brand going that I still buy with any regular intent however it was very spuratic till CW. That series and TR have been very buyer heavy, TR I have to watch myself because it's way to easy to justify doubles.

YouTube doesn't register a video seen till about 1/4th is length (so in this case the 5 minute mark) now you can just jump to that point and it registers as viewed and the hit is counted, however lets say you leap to 3/4ths in and then quit shortly after it won't register, so a long padded video ensures views/hits becuase most will jump to a scene they are interested and it will register shortly afterwards.

Honestly, go with whichever is cheaper at this point. Either way make sure you snag a Groove, he's great, and make sure to sand the inside of Blades' port if you pick up Blades, because that shit will probably break if you don't, because the heli mold has that as a flaw that was never fixed.

You got really lucky. Both my Vortex and Blades were really stressed, and my Vortex actually broke. I glued it, but I also bought a 2nd Vortex just in case. I'd really recommend sanding the handfootgun ports anyway just in case.

I think it's gotten to that point as of late. This whole Prime Wars thing seems to have been born out of the realization that the Third Party has een producing things that the fans haven't been getting from HasTak.

Hell, "Combiner Wars"? That's what fans had been calling the Third Party market back when everyone was doing Devastators and Bruticus upgrade kits and the like.

It looks like John Warden not only has a love for all things G1, but he also seems to be keeping an eye on the unofficial market in search of the next big hit.


There have also been times when Hasbro reached out to the fans deliberately, although not everyone has come out of these Fan Polls happy.

>>
>>6040520
Alll those greebles and panels.
>>
>>6040520
Laserwave's ankle's had kind of shitty range. not much back and forward movement and the ankle tilts were limited.

I don't know what that guy is smoking though because he still poses fine.

If you're gonna complain about anything on laserwave you should complain about his knees and lack of his Ratchet joins. You can pose him all you want but if you want to split his legs then it takes an entire bottle of future shine to keep him from doing a full split over the weight of his torso.
>>
>>6040530
lack of hip ratchet joints*

legs legs ratchet back and forwards, but the outward and inwar articulation is just on a tiny tiny friction joint that does not support his weight very well in open legged poses.

He is an overall nice looking figure, however his hip joints, on mine at least, are a little lose.

His feet are very long and flat and smooth and he slides around a bit on flat smooth surfaces more than other transformers I've had before.

HIs balance isn't that good, but not bad ether. You can make him look more "G1" if you fold out his calve parts, and in fold his hood chest.

Not bad at all, Its a thick yellow coat over the same transparent blue plastic they use for his windshield.

Very uniform cover on mine. At first before I got him out of the box and had a full look at him, it was hard to tell that the yellow was painted on.

Looks best in natural light and bright white light. Only weakness is if you have low level or yellow/orange lights it starts to look a bit "off".

Since My friend has dodgy lights at his place I'll show you...

But still not bad overall.
