People saying the $100 MP isn't Optimus, wasn't the Hasbro release of MP-10 around that price with the trailer and everything? I don't find it hard to believe that a movie MP Prime being $100 is that far-fetched considering it'll only be the cab with no trailer/roller etc.

The inclusion of the beast mask explains the light bar on the back of Primal's head then.
>>
>>6124520

That, and the fact that the antenna can move down and there's a slot on the back of his head.

It was pretty obvious that they were planning a mutant head if you took into account all three things.

Obvious answer is to check YouTube. The older seeker mold isnt super great, it has its problems. The newer one is a bit sleeker with less awful hip kibble. Someone else can give the right numbers, I don't remember. They all look great in both modes imo, but the newer mold is definitely superior. So the MP is perfect if you want a nice classic looking Skywarp (or any other seeker).

In pic related the one on the right is the older one, you can see the extra kibble and other differences.
>>
>>6124619
Jfc. Disregard. I didn't look at that picture close enough, those are the same mold and I'm a dumbass.
>>
>>6124612
Dang. Like every character that has been done early on in Classics and Universe has gotten another shot at another CHUG figure except for the Seekers, Bluestreak, Sideswipe, and Inferno/Grapple.

We need some deluxe or voyager seekers badly. The legends were a step in the right direction. Fuck, upsize those and add a few new joints here and there and I'd buy that.

Hardhead, Wolfwire, and Triggerhappy are the best ones so far. Skullcruncher is also just as good, but you are much more likely to get a toy that's ruined by shitty QC issues.

Brainstorm/Blurr are solid, but no interesting gimmicks to make them stand out like the ones I listed.

I would say Triggerhappy but he sets the bar high. Skip Highbrow entirely he is garbage unless you want to get the full set of headmasters. I got him and he is by far the worst I own.

I've heard Wolfwire can be delicate but he looks so good. Chromedome is one of the clunkier releases.

If I can offer some constructive criticism, I'd say for next time to try and keep a consistent font size throughout each dialog bubble instead of stretching and shrinking to fit each one (obviously there's some situations where this can't be avoided though, so use your judgment!)

Also try to leave some more "open space" within each bubble. As an example to show how I would've done it, I re-did the first panel.

Again though, a good first job! Thank you for translating it for us. :D

https://www.pledge.com/en-us/products/pledge-floor-care-multi-surface-finish

And then to apply it, I've found that using a needle-tip bottle as pictured is the best way to go about it. Just get a tiny one and refill it with your big Pledge bottle as needed.

I figured as such. I wonder if it fits over the mystery peg on his back. Also, if that pic is all his accessories, then he comes with less faceplates than the BW version does.

I suppose the mutant head counts for something, but those dopey smile faceplates are great. BW2 Primal wouldn't feel complete without them to me.

Also, since it looks like we still have nothing to peg into his arm slot, I wonder if that means there's yet a 3rd MP Primal version on the way with some weird accessories to use it.

But le randumb is fun, one thing I hate about collectors is how they stand them there like they're from a factory when really its space conservation at work.

That said as an owner of the hasbro version the rest of the mold is rather basic, makes me wish super articulated action masters came.

>super articulated action masters
If they sold the entire AM line again with regular GI Joe type articulation and no alt-modes, God help me I'd buy every single one. Dirt-cheap to produce too, comparatively to the regular deluxes, but you know they'd still charge $11.99 a piece.
>>
>>6125379
Yep. Me too. At any scale really.Hell, make them Joe size. I'd buy it. Or at least 1/12 scale size and there'd be some great potential for some crossover shots.
>>
>>6125380
Anywhere between normal AM size and 1/12 would be fine, I like the original size myself but certainly wouldn't shun them if they wound up being scaled to deluxe roughly. I just need me a Mainframe, and a Treadshot, and a Sprocket, and a Circuit, and a Banzaitron.
>>
I think the only thing I don't like about MP Soundwave is that his feet don't tilt forward. A lot of poses require balancing him on the tip of his toes because his feet just can't get flush to the ground.

I also found it weird at first how his legs don't bend backwards, but then I started to realize how rarely I use that specific articulation in other figures and I don't even realize they don't bend that way now unless I'm specifically playing around to see the extremes of his articulation.

Soundwave is definitely a ton of fun. If price were'nt an object I would have gotten him long ago.

I'm just waiting on some red eyes from nonnef and he'll be perfect.

I don't usually mind the Yellow eyes, but I find he has the same same problem as MP10 where the clear plastic is too dark. Opaque wuld have been much better.

It's funny because I don't really collect MP stuff, but I do want a really good SW, and the only really good SW out there is the MP. I do have a few MP figures though-All Decepticons, oddly enough.

Several toys were mentioned:

1:18 Scale ‘Giant Robot Warriors’ Bumblebee Diecast Vehicle
1:18 Scale ‘Giant Robot Warriors’ Barricade Diecast Vehicle
1:12 Scale Ultimate RC Bumblebee – controlled and transforms from vehicle to robots via a mobile app.
We also received info on their new Transformers: Robots In Disguise range based on the animated series.

Diecast Optimus Prime with Trailer – includes two diecast vehicles.
Diecast 2-Pack – with an additional articulated Transformers figure.
To check out the toys, visit the Simba Smoby booth (Hall 12, Stand B-03-02) at UK Toy Fair.

Unrelated to anything but:

I just go this guy in the mail today and he's actually pretty neat. I got him on a whim after some anon posted that picture of him with Grimstone. He's much larger than I expected for some reason and his transformation is surprisingly complex. And he probably has the best, most poseable dino mode outside of Planet X's Vulcan.

Yea no. This thing is FAR from worst TF in history, Most people wouldn't even say it's bad. Hell, it's not even the worst Grimlock, that would be the Energon one easily. Though the Pretender and AoE Leader Grimlock are also pretty crap.

>This Masterpiece Bumblebee figure is based on the first Transformers live action movie using some *die-cast* parts to commemorate the film’s 10th anniversary . .

>umblebee converts from his dynamic, Autobot scout form into a 2006 Chevy Camaro concept car. The figure also has a whopping 33 points of articulation, making it a collectable, and versatile figure. The design premise allows fans to articulate the figure into all sorts of movie-accurate poses!

Has anyone here ever bought one of these fake tf's?

how's the quality? Are they larger than legends figures?
>>
Classic Grimlock gives me Dinobot 2 vibes.

I wouldn't have minded a Dinobot 2 repaint of it, honestly. Though I suppose a version of a disliked mold for an unpopular character is asking too much for even a con exclusive.
>>
>>6125773
How much?
>>
>>6125775

Given how Nintendo hasn't had a good console since the N64 (or possibly the SNES), and now they've finally jumped on the shit-tastic "Pay for online" bullshit that Microsoft spent millions campaigning for to make it acceptable with the original X-Box, I'd probably go for a 3DS if you don't have one already, or a Trypticon.

You probably won't be missing much at all.

>>6125776

Haven't bought one, but they appear to just be upsized Legends figures. I'd say see if youtube has any reviews.
>>
>>6125773

For $40, yes. Anything above that, no, get a UW unless you're really poor or desperate.
>>
>>6125775
I'd wait on the NX. Its launch lineup is so bad they aren't even launching the online service until later.

>>6125776
I seem to remember somebody here purchasing one of them. They're about deluxe size.
>>
>>6125190
Aren't we all?
>>
>>6125781

£70 bongs
>>
>>6125776
I got the whole first wave of them (Optimus, Megatron, Starscream, Bumblebee, Hot Rod, and Powerglide). They're very good quality and I hightly recommend them. They are oversized though. It makes Bumblebee and Powerglide fit in better with deluxe sized bots, so that's nice. I think I only have Megatron around but I'll try and take a picture if I can find him.

Megatron has some really nice silver paint. Optimus is probably the worst one just because his red plastic seems a little low quality.

Here's a size comparison.

Is this just a thing with red plastic? I know those are upsized KO's, but people say this with like, every goddamn toy with red plastic.

Yeah, red and yellow plastic always seems to be kind of awful. Except for whatever kind they used on TM Blaster, I love the way his plastic feels.

Well, red plastic stress easily, and gives off that cheap feeling unless you're going to darker shades.

Looking at picking up Victorion for $65 shipped. Does that seem good. I do kind of like her and am enjoying the team members in the comics.
>>
>>6125828
I nabbed her for slightly less than that around xmas and don't regret it, hadn't planned on getting her but was flush with cash and felt like splurging a little. Pyra Magna stands out as the best looking to me, and I actually find myself loving the helicopter twins where I'd thought I'd like them least.
>>
>>6125828
I enjoy them. Not the best set, but a little above average for a CW set. I'd say she's worth picking up if you are interested.

It's pretty good. The wings don't clip in together very well in robot mode but it's not loose, so it's not a big deal. Not for me, anyway. Small Deluxe size, fits right in with Classics Bumblebee and the iGear Minibots.

So why is everybody going nuts over TR Triggerhappy? What's so great about it?

His transformation tried something, and didn't sacrficie waist articulation to pull it off.

minimal hollow parts, brand new transformation scheme for Jets (let alone any transformer) great play-ability with the arm mounted guns, just overall way above and beyond the quality of every other TR figure so far.

Ultra doesn't exist anymore, so I doubt we'll see it just cause of the Dinobots.

Anyway, I see it as:

>Deluxe Swoop, Deluxe Snarl
>Voyager Grimlock, Sludge, and Slag (but Slag could also work as a deluxe.
>>
>>6126094

Legends Swoop
Deluxe Grimlock, Snarl, Slag
Voyager Sludge
>>
>>6126094
Voyagers for all but Swoop and Grimlock, who'd be deluxe and leader-class, respectively.
>>
>>6126104
I don't know, most Leader class end up compromised in some way.

It's Grimlock though, they could really just scale the simple transformation up from the Classics or FoC version, or hell even simplify the MP and call it a day. How hard could they fuck it up, it's just a T-rex standing up ffs.

You and I both know no one cares about the toy head, and the IDW wouldn't fit the G1 design, but they'd force it in anyway.

To be fair, it would've worked if they didn't make his hands oddly floppy. I still need to future the hands on mine and keep forgetting.

Fuck it, I'mma go get my future bottle right now.
>>
Are both sides of the hinge that connects Blurr's hand-guards on pinned?
>>
>>6126148
Mine's twelve hours away at my parents', but if you cut two grooves into one of the parts of the gun barrel, between two existing ridges, it can fit in the gap on the blue part under his hand and let's him hold his hammer in a more natural way and more securely. Just a random tidbit.

Thankfully the only things catching my interest right now is the Masterpiece Bumblebee. Depends on how Prime and the other one turns out.

Can't wait for Toyfair.

I am actually glad to see this thread, because I have two questions.

1. Am I nothing but pure fucking garbage for liking Soundwave above all others and only want him as a figure, or even a statue? I just really enjoyed his design back when I watched the original series, him and Prime are my favorites.
2. Is there anyplace else to get a Master series figure of Soundwave that isn't $150+?
>>
>>6126178
1: nah, everybody loves Soundwave, you're in good company there.
2: Not really There's an unofficial revoltech-type figure of him you could get, otherwise settle for the Leader fig and ignore the headmaster thing.
>>
>>6126184
That revoltech is actually pretty nice, but very Studio Ox styled. The only ones of those I've gotten were him and Shockwave.
>>
>>6126199
We need some Generations Soundwave and Shockwave figures that are deluxes or voyagers sometime.
>>
>>6126199
>>6126184
Got any links to see or purchase a revoltech Soundwave? I tried amazon and bigbad but nothing came up. I wanted to look him over.
>>
>>6126210
I'm happy at the moment with the FoC equivilants holding those two spots in my collection, but I would also replace them with Generations versions if they appeared on the scene.
Speaking of replacing figures, TR has left me for the first time with more than one or two obsolete toys cluttering up my space. Classics Astrotrain, Hot Rod, Scourge now hang out with that old ultra Silverbolt and a few other stragglers in my collection.
>>
>>6126217
I've got FOC Shockwave and he can fudge a decent gun mode but man, he's so tiny. Maybe I should do that Cyclonus part swap everyone and their grandma did.

Why not just copy the engineering of pic related?
I swear these things need to be scaled-up at some point and replace the normal deluxes, the Strongarm is great.
