My bud and I are getting each other Transformers for Christmas. I got him Titans Return Soundwave and I'm trying to narrow down what Shockwave to ask for.

I pretty much have it down to Combiner Wars/TR Shockwave and Fall of Cybertron Shockwave, but I'm not sure which I want. Surely one of you has both and an opinion on the matter.

He's gonna end up posed on my computer desk.

The Legends one would make a great desk toy. Very expressive and poseable.

FoC has the benefit of being bigger but doesn't have quite as nice articulation. He has far fewer fans than the Legends one but I like them both ok.

Also. Bumblebee's upper arm kibble doesn't bother me quite as much as I thought it would, but it's still obnoxious. If you swap them he looks a billion times better. But if this is the mold they do the other mini car bots with I won't complain.
>>
>>6067796
The FoC is really thin and flimsy. He also has horrible feet so he's pretty hard to pose. Unless you are a fan of the design, the legends is almost as articulated and is a gun.

Pics you?

Too bad they abandoned the perfect size they already set Minibots up with in Classics Bubmlebee. Legends is perfect for super tiny guys like cassettes, not for Minibot cars and Insecticons.
>>
>>6067875

Both are small, and could be redone better at about 7". Not sure if the upcoming 3p FOC Shockwave is particularly more successful than the original though.
>>
>>6067888
No, real pic, casual.

Ordered this add on kit for Wheeljack and painted it, now the Generations figure has nothing on this toy.
>>
>>6067894
That doesn't need to parts form the wings.

>>6067896
So what? It looks better as Wheeljack in every way. The only bad thing is the hollow legs.
>>
>>6067893
I mean, it looks the same. Buy it and a take a pic yourself.
>>
>>6067914
In fairness engineering is a key factor in a TFs quality. If it's just partsforming or if all you care about is the bot mode then you might as well get a figurine over a transformer

That said like what you want

>>6067922
I'm fine with a little partsforming or "fake" vehicle parts when it makes for a much better robot mode.

Wrong, friendo. Here are his arms the normal way.

If he had thighs and better bicep parts he'd be perfect. He's got such a lovable face and the perfectly tubby belly, but those two things just kill it.

Also, do you know if he shares any parts with Wheelie? His arms look pretty similar.

Similar but none of it's the same mold.

I dunno. Deluxes have gotten smaller since then, and Legends have gotten bigger. The size gap isn't as big as you think.

I really like the way bots like Wheelie scale with Deluxes like Hardhead. I think it's a good match.

Try to find a Quakeblast. Cheapest of the MP-style offerings, only downside is you pretty much can't use the solid barrel attachment if you put it into gun mode, have to use the flexible one, otherwise you'll pretty much hamhand his gun barrel right off his left arm every time.

>>6068125
Both are good. My preference is Quakewave. But I completely see why people like Quakeblast too. Honestly I'm not sure you can go wrong between the two.

To honest there's not a lot of bad Shockwave toys. TFP and FoC are probably the weakest recent ones but even they are OK.

Like I said, just posting it would lead you in hot water, things need context or a discussion point or else autist will report...ignorant autist mind you.

I know its a licensed 3p (therefore its official) that's highly articulated and filled to the brim with led's but there isn't much to discuss, especially since most anons here wouldn't be able to afford the big bastard.

Hell that alone might cause the shitstorm the 3a starscream caused the other day but that may be different from your intention.

So, why did you post it, just to show it off, because its old news

So you're trading hollow arms and a lack of paint for a lack of feet and a price tag that's nearly double the former?

Does it really cost money to dye plastic colors in, there has to be a reason for it?

The mold was fine for ultra magnus, and...in a sad sense it works well here too.

Depends, where I am its only worth double the toy when its on sale, I get bulk shipments so it doesn't hurt me unlike individual postage.

I don't actually mind the feet, but that's because I'm hoping they have a wider range of movement unlike thunder foot.

That said I do plan on displaying them together, I just wanted a little more color on pmop and he'd of been fine for my taste, whilst ginrai is a different person so...that's my logic.

Oh, I thought it was out already.

People here seem on edge with anything that doesn't transform, infact the most common discussion is about store bought figures from cw and TR with mp's being mentioned but rarely.

I think the reason why mp36 has little shit posting is because we live in a world of options, few want mp05 other than his gun mode, some anons are scared because he's a gun-former and country laws prevent importation (least easily), and multiple 3p versions to suit their taste.

That and he's a cartoon focused figure that's expressive, people have forgiven his back since np mp megatron is perfect.

I admit that mega sized OP is amazing, would you be getting it, I wanted to see it next to gen metroplex or TR fort max but alas I'm trying to cut down on crap with mp megatron 2.0 and tr trypticon being my final few tf's, ever.

New Zealand. We have such shit prices for pretty much everything, especially when it comes to toys. From what I remember, it's $100 NZD for a Leader, $50 for a Voyager and $30 for a Deluxe.

>>6068600
The feet I don't think would be possible since it seems the engineering was re-done. Everything else in the legs though would definitely be possible.

100 NZD = about $70 USD. It's still $20 cheaper than Ginrai, and that's ignoring shipping.

Holiday anon here, can anyone update me on the basic retail situation over there?

I don't think we'll be visiting mall of asia or staying in manilla, but I'm hopeful tru's are somewhat similar.

I'm assuming wave 3 tr's in all types are present, any...older tf's shooting up in stores to clear stock?

>>6068578
You're also forgetting that LG Ginrai from the looks of it has wrist swivels and more parts count on the arms alone to cover the hollowness and the panels seems to have more areas to be folded during transformation and it seems that the LG also has an ankle tilt even though his feet is stubby and accurate to the g1 toy.
>>
>>6068634
I reckon 3a anon would be fun to talk to, as for the autist I doubt he'd turn up, either he wouldn't exist and is a shit poster or would be too scared to leave his parent's basement.

Nah he's got a nicer chest and more articulation, Leaders need to have wrist rotation and ankle tilt.

I'll be laughing so hard once the reviews come out and you're totally fucking wrong and I see this thread go into chaos because of you cucks.

Also news flash, all toys are hollow. They're made of 2 or more parts that go over together to form a solid look. I never said it was not hollow you retard, I said "to cover the hollowness."
>>
>>6068653
Its cool and all but If I can't recreate iconic scenes of him in both modes, whats the point? I could get mp with a trailer or 3rd party transforming one for half the price.

If I wanted robots that didn't transform I'd go after revo's and other highly poseable lines.

His "nicer chest" technically has a lower parts count and the only "more articulation" that he has is an ankle tilt. The wrist is just speculation.

1. He's huge. 18" inches at the head.

2. Higher levels of details, more paint, and vastly superior articulation are afforded when not burdened with the engineering necessities of Transforming.

3. Cool fucking lights and shit.

4. He's cheaper than retail Optimus at 170 USD.

Why does the chest have a lower parts count, its still 2 bits on a hinge that close to form the truck front and with that god engine section flips up much like the current one.

Also why in the fuck does a lower parts count make for a bad toy if the damn product looks good?

(Not that it matters since its subjective, some like the mix of pale "grey" and silver of the hasbro and some like the screen accuracy of the legends)

$90? Where the fuck are you getting that price from? The place I have him ordered converts to $76 nzd. Could have gotten him for $67 elsewhere had I not been a slowpoke but that's my fault for not wanting the figure sooner.

As for shipping, it tends to actually be pretty alright when buying from Japan for me. MP Hot Rod was the last TF I imported and his EMS was only 1500 yen (AmiAmi). Originally had a pre-order for MP Primal but had to cancel and his 8 - 10 day Air Mail was 2000 yen (Nippon Yasan).

Similar arguments to the 3a transformers minus articulation, the moment it can't transform people here will cry.

If you like it why not, just know you can't defend it, least not here, people here would prefer transforming literal transforming toys than that big ol' prime.

That said anyone have those little fuckers, I love the burger bot

Because you're giving out false accusations of it, In the articulation department it is better than pmop. Also that chest comment was fucking bait.
>>
>>6068671

I can totally defend it. People don't typically make constructive or thoughtful posts when they see something they don't like here. People just flip their shit because it's different. That's why the 3A spammer gets so many replies.

You can just do more stuff with a non transforming action figure. I totally get why people don't like it. It's definitely not for everyone but it has many advantages to a transforming prime.

Buyer's remorse implies that you bought something and you really know it's shit but you still want to pretend that it's good anyways to save face. So defending it does count as buyer's remorse if you really think it's shit.

>>6068679
So it just being PMOP with panels moved around and ankle tilts is false?

Christ, make up your mind.

So saying that there's no gurantee that the new chest has a higher parts count is also bait.

Possible, with wheelie they done the canopy in clear but wheels in black clear, meaning they were molded on the same sprue but for takara they did the canopy's individually.

Depends on what looks good though, they might just do it again, or hell maybe use black plastic and paint the wings in white or silver instead

So it looks like Takara learnt a little from CTR and decided to give it their own spin.

I'll be reporting from Australia, while rare I still see scourges and blurrs but only 1-2 (sometimes each) in a store, the leaders are tanking and we haven't gone beyond wave one (though blaster is the biggest clogger) so most stores won't even see soundwave let alone sixshot (its so bad some stores just stocked up...CW SKYWARPS, we never got them during CW but getting now is absurd).

Legends wise wave 1, mostly wheelie which is odd, and so far with the titan masters its wave 2 entirely, sometimes I see a siren or nightbeat but its rare.

Voyagers we're still stuck on wave 2 but some places still have wave one, and its galvatron.

I'm gonna say the biggest in a literal sense is blaster, unlike blurr's and scourges of the deluxes there is always 2+ hanging around in a store.

I just want a sixshot and at this rate I'll be getting a legends version, all the ones on ebay are over priced or from america (nothing wrong except the shipping)

That guy has the worst goddamn luck, I swear. He finds issues with molds that i've seen literally no one else report, and if it wasn't for the fact that most of them are "Joint is too loose in a VITAL area for stability" or "Joint is too tight and forces itself out of the socket" I would assume he's visibly looking for them

I'll try that to pose him when I get it. The protruding windows were a major downside to me but this looks a lot cleaner even if it won't transform right.

Can someone explain to me what is irritating about partsforming to people?

>>6068667
>uses retard as an insult twice
No that's more basic than "kiddo". Like right there on terms of preteen insults like "gay".
>>
>>6068894

It's a lazy shortcut engineering wise. There are of course exceptions where partsforming is necessary (Galvatron), or part of the lore (Overlord being two things or Ospreem being a bunch of playset shit).
>>
>>6068894
For me it means lazyness on the design, cheating on the enginery can give nice looking results but "meh" transformations.
>>
>>6068894
I don't have a problem unless it's a bunch of small pieces. Like I love megazords and always have along with voltron and such so that's never been a problem, but when it's a bunch of smaller things then I get annoyed, but that doesn't happen often.

Manila anon here.
No wave 3 yet as of this post.
No titan masters from wave 2either (brawn, apeface, etc).
We recently had a price hike on TR leader classes and deluxes.

As for older stuff, CW leader classes are on sale but only Ultra Magnus and the seekers remain. You still find a bit of armada megs, but no more g1. Voyagers are also on sale- onslaught and betatron scattershot remain. As for deluxes, the skylynx and optimus maximus limbs are left with a few stunticons. Also on sale.

>>6068894
Parts-forming and shellforming just seems like the ezmode to doing transformations. Parts-forming in particular is done by many other robot toylines, TF will lose its niche if it does it too often.

So I've got a dilemma.
Ive got 40 bucks left to spend on tr toys this season
Ive gotten clobber and galvatron.
So i can either get three/four deluxes or a leader and titan master, or two voyagers and a legends.
I've been wanting to build up my original movie line, and so far ive got generations cyclonus, kup, springer, arcee, ultra magnus, tr galvatron.
I'm pretty sure whichever figures i don't get I'm gonna miss out entirely on.
Ones i want the most are pmop, hotrod, triggerhappy, gnaw, repugnus, fangry
Ones im leaning towards but not sold on are blurr, perceptor, scourge, wheelie, blaster, sixshot
I feel that takara ginrai+godbomber is superior to just regular pmop, but thats a huge chunk of change, and I'm already saving up for Trypticon. Is Hasbro's worth it if i already have UM, and know i won't be getting the takara total package?
Are there any figures listed that should be tossed right out?

>>6069461
pmop isn't that great and might go on deep discount
he's a wait for sure.
Blurr is very plane. Save for a better retool of him. Ditto for Scourge
Blaster, sixshot become questions of gimmick and your feelings on it.
Blaster makes a fun base and his stereo mode is charming but it lose charm fast.
Sixshot is a ton of play value if you like transforming toys but lands rather bland if you care about action displays or good play value in robot mode

>>6069473
Ah, well my personal preference is just transforming it, but o have neohews who love to play, so i try to get figures that they'll enjoy posing and fighting with.
Due to their age, only one even knows what a boombox is.
I plan to get Trypticon, so im presuming bases can connect to him, but that seems to suggest i should go for decepticon leaders, of which sixshot is the only one I'm interested in.
I guess the biggest point of contention is whether i should get hotrod, triggerhappy, gnaw, repugnus, and fangry, or go for sixshot.

>No hand pegs, but some of the weapons had the pegs. Still holds weapons just fine, more of a weird oversight I guess.
>My copy had a defect I haven't seen anyone else complaint about. The inside of his chest had a slightly mismolded bit inside the window, it scratched his truck bottom part, had to sand it down to fix.

I'd really recommend it if you're looking for a smaller MP-10 though. All the joints on mine are tight.

There's not much articulation in that mode, so you can't get much poses out of it. It's similar to Thundertron's and Lioconvoy's lion modes.

the color of his flames is now red on blue rather then blue on red. The arm design is a bit bulkier in the forearm. Shoulder pads look different. Back of the torso his THICC. Basically they made him buff.

I'm shocked. It took forever for wave 2 to hit locally. Like I wasn't able to get Weirdwolf until like 2 weeks ago and then bam all of wave 3 deluxes just chilling in that same place I found Weirdwolf.

No issues with Triggerhappy, but I had to work on Hot Rod. The TM legs are fucked up and won't bend all the way in for headmode while also not being able to bend like a normal knee without stressing on the upper leg section. The right side of vehicle mode won't fully close BUT I've only put it in vehicle mode once so far so its probably just a first transformation mistake. And of course it was very loose at the hip. More so than my skullcruncher. Fixed that already though. Other than those small things, it's my favorite autobot TR so far.

Well his articulation works for me from what I've seen in videos. Plus it's either that or hexatron. Nothing against hexatron, but I have an issue spending that much on one toy. Not that I can't afford it, I just can't justify it.

You know what? With a bit of retooling, id totally be okay with Triggerhappy becoming a base mold for new Seekers. It would be a cool design I think.
