So /tfg/, what were the highlights of 2016?

>>6099451
Watching Takaracucks get blown out again and again and again and again, by their own company no less.

>>6099451
None. 2016 was a mistake in most fields.

>>6099453
I ask for highlights because I haven't really tuned in to /toy/ this year. So forgive me if I ask, what do you mean?

>>6099458
UW Bruticus, LG Ginrai, UW Defensor and all those awful Ehobby exclusives.

>>6099441
This

>>6099455
Fuck off CTR

>>6099451
Titans Return, RID getting good, and UW computron

only in terms of transformers, that is

Does anyone have the Takara Mindwipe, and Takara Highbrow comics? I haven't been able to find those yet, and I didn't order them since I was content with the Hasbro versions.

>>6099456
You got politics in my toy talk I am disappoint
>>6099451
Honestly I really fucking love Titan Wars. Making everyone a headmaster was weird at first but when I saw just how much play value there was in it I grew to love the line. They may not be the "best" Transformers (however you define that) but fuck if they aren't the most fun toys I've seen.

>>6099451
Pretty much all of Titans Return. Weird to think that Combiner Wars was still going on the first half of the year, too. I already don't remember a lot of it.

Except for Hot Spot. Shit was so cash

>>6099463
What's wrong with Ginrai besides the feet?

>>6099483
He has another minor quirk; his trailer can't fit a standard deluxe car, only lengeds scale vehicles due to the chest plate that goes over the grill in robot mode.

No idea if PMOP suffers from that cap issue, since I don't own it.

>>6099483
>besides the feet
People are barely just starting to get theirs in and there's also reported stress marks on the red plastic on the back. And the feet are a big enough problem on their own, they either topple over or flop over.

So, how retarded would this thing look with a vulcan gun stuck to the front?

>>6099451
FAGs.

>>6099494
Probably less retarded than your post.

Granted, there's finally third party companies making transformable cabs so maybe the stock cab shouldn't matter?

In general 80's designs are bricky and undynamic. It's more of the poor design philosophy of the time really.

@6099565
A figure that has articulation but you can't really use it anyways since it's either hindered, looks bad, or causes functionality issues, therefore forcing you to be stuck with a neutral stance when displaying.

It would be absolutely amazing if they made a CW Aerialbot with this guy's transformation though. All they need to do is to add the combiner peg, give it waist swivels, and a foot peg for the combiner hand.

The thing that bothers me the most about modern deluxes is that a ton of them have wrist hinges to fold in when they should have ball joints to fold in and have wrist rotation.

I don't have him on me right now, but Prime Powerizer Ultra Magnus had ball jointed wrists and it was great. Why can't hasbro do that now?

>>6099581
He needs remolded in the seekers, idgaf that there's already a good RID Seeker mold

>>6099692
It's not weird at all. People always complain when Hasbro uses ball joints. Plus, there are also more complicated clearance issues and design issues when using a ball joint design like that. It's theoretically possible but practically unwieldy.

And more importantly, no one is obligated to completed redesign a new arm joint system just because one faggot is upset about it.

>>6099700
Everyone complains about the wrist articulation all the time with each release.

>>6099703
Big deal. Hasbro still isn't obligated to change it, and that doesn't mean that a ball joint folding system will solve more problems than it causes.

Grow the fuck up and stop living in fantasy land.

I've said this before too, so I got to thinking about it a bit.

>>6099700
>>6099705
Here you go, Mr. Fuck Improvements, proof of concept. Hand has full rotation, approx 22 degrees of movement forward and back at its most limited, and can fold into the arm, all without collisions. Took approx 30 min and has same parts count as traditional wrist hinge if you mold the orange bit onto the blue. I left it separate to see detail.

>inb4 ball will fall out of the socket lol
Ball sockets are tricky to model in limited free programs. I'd do it properly if I had a better one.
And I know the hand is uggo, just roll with it.

>>6099789
Good, now try implementing it into a more complex shell with angular parts, a functional elbow, internal support struts, and then show me that it passes standardized safety tests.

Or you could just fuck off back to TFW, you whiny entitled manchild.

>>6099789
Homie so mad he rigged up a 3D model to hate

>>6099770
I hope mine can stand well. I'd be pretty stupid if the one of the few things they changed ended up making the figure worse, specially when those ankles attach to booths.

>>6099796
>I'd be pretty stupid if the one of the few things they changed ended up making the figure worse
>expecting anything less from Takara
It already has, visually

>>6099790
Actually, you could just mold any existing elbow joint onto this forearm, slap some details on, and it'd work. A detailed shell isn't a problem, but no need to make a whole new toy just to show one balljoint wrist, the type of which has already been used on other tfs. I might try my hand at an elbow tomorrow though.

Also there aren't any internal support struts on modern tfs, at least not in the limbs.

>>6099801
>Also there aren't any internal support struts on modern tfs, at least not in the limbs.
Ah, that explains why you're so retarded. I'm arguing with someone who's so dumb that they think retarded concepts like this are executable in reality and think that modern TFs don't have support struts.

Yeah I'm done here. You can go shill your stupid idea on TFW instead.

Original guy, thanks for this. It's funny that people are talking about this not actually being feasible to engineer when the ball sockets on prid Vehicon can be shaved down and not only add more natural looking arms but also hold the ball as tight as it did before. And that's on an elbow joint. Seems like a minor change for far greater articulation.

If you notice that someone only responds to certain posts and responds to every response with logical fallacies and insults, they're a troll. Stop fucking responding to them and wait for the janitor to clear their posts.

I'm fucking sick of coming back to this thread to see one post about toys and 30 calling that post something stupid and irrelevant.

Hoi doi report and ignore

>>6099980
This is neo-4chan. We don't have Janitors anymore, just power abusing mods that keep shitposting and clear away proper discussion.

Also, your "one post about toys" is some autistic baby complaining about how Hasbro can't replace the current wrist folding system with some stupidly complex ball joint mechanism that's extremely likely to run into clearance and safety issues.

You want to photo dump that's your call but most here are not the prototype kind. Some of us it's because we delt with to many retards that thought it was bragging rights to own untested, incomplete and/or broken toys and paying more then they ever should on it.

Two questions:
Do any of the prototypes have different materials than the final products? (Like Scrons spines & tail or jetfire's nosecone)

Where do you get them? How much money do you put aside for prototypes? Where do you get said money?

>>6100041
Can you transform the printed Dinobot?

Why is there always one anon doing their damnedest to derail /tfg/ into a shitfest? The last dozen or so threads all seemed to have mass amounts of pruned posts from shitflinging so egregious that mods actually had to step in to do their job.

The differences, if any, are often very minor. Typically it's only the color scheme or lack of paint.

I have a rule that I won't spend more than 1k on any figure no matter how badly I want it. I find them all over ebay, yahoo auctions, and old timers on the forums. Many are hesitant to sell so I trade them for things they really want.

I work as a chemist and I am 25 so I don't have family expenses. I imagine when I get a serious girlfriend this hobby of mine will dwindle.

Yes, this pic pf painted one isn't mine but it transforms. The smaller figure is a custom painted henekei dinobot.

You can still find him yeah. BBTS I know has him still. Combiners usually stick around longer in most stores it seems, probably because buying a one-off $85-150 figure like an MP or whatever is fine for most people who collect that sort of stuff, but nabbing a full $600 thing is a whole other ballgame. Personally I saved for a few months just to get this guy.

>>6100776

I don't think an official one would turn out too bad, if CW was any indication. Most of CW was really great, it's just there was a lot of mold re-use and Motormaster/Skylynx having ultra shitty joints.

That's the legends version, the Hasbro version has a yellow visor.

Unrelated to that, It's pretty sad how one minor alteration would vastly improve Stripes/Ravage. The section that protrudes from the top of hind legs would be a separate piece on a hinge that would flip over the hind leg, giving the mold a slim torso. The wings would still look like dogshit, but the mold would at least be tolerable, and you could have Rewind/Rumble ride them properly.

i've been waiting for something like this. some people say that only geewunners like having a small OP, but it was always just added play value to me, like with the unicron trilogy primes. You get a small prime, but with added armor or whatever.

I've never bought any third party stuff before, but I'll probably pick this up

Save up at least 80-100 for him. He definitely won't be cheap. I just hope they don't fuck people over by making him incompatible with Takara's Godbomber so they can sell their own version.

They probably just waited for Ginrai so they could retool a new version that works with that.

I thought PE's godbomber is for Hasbro powermaster?

Why? Whats that song got to do with... well, anything? It's really not that good a song at all. Don't know why everyone's so obsessed with it.

Im sure the ankles can be easily tightened with Futura or crazy glue if care is used.

Maybe lean him forward just a tiny bit to counterbalance.Has it been conclusively proven that its impossible to fix at all?

>>6099855

Has this conceit that he's an "Internet personality" and he never tires of telling us this in each and every single one of his videos. And he just loves to hear himself talk

Dude seriously needs to get over himself.

Not your place to judge.

If he likes those and he clearly does then he objectively did NOT waste his money.

>>6100053

SO are you completely incapable of behaving like a civilized human being
