MP reissues and BW2 Primal.

I really hope they make KOs of the mutant mask. I like the cartoon version more but I still want a mutant mask.

>Anthony from TFU.INFO is at Toy Fair 2017 and had the opportunity to ask Hasbro some questions about the new Clones in the Attack on Velocitron and Siege on Cybertron boxsets! As it turns out, the Clone figures - smaller than Deluxes - are not Legends class figures! Their counterparts, Cloudraker and Wingspan, are still planned, but will probably not see individual release. Keep reading for more info! First off: for those who aren't aware, the Autobot Clones, Fastlane & Cloudraker and Decepticon Clones Pounce & Wingspan are pairs of robots who are almost completely identical in Robot Mode, but have separate alternate modes.
>Also, Hasbro reps hinted at more clones, probably in more boxed sets. I'd expect Godbomber in one.

2nd rerelease, actually

They're really committed to that flappy chest.

>>6194236
Yeah most people figured the last part yesterday when we had like one clone and was an original mold. All of them probably are like heavy variations of one mold or at least lot of shared parts.
>>
>>6194193
The BW 10th Anniversary Megatron actually works really well with MP Primal. Not perfect, but well. Besides, while Generations Rhinox and Rattrap are also a bit off, scale wise, Dinobot rounds out the Season 1 Maximals before Airrazor/Tigatron.

>>6194216
As much as I want MP Terrorsaur I'd be ok with just Megatron for now. Megs worked as a threat by himself.

>How will they hide his huge shins in dino mode?

And all the blue. I guess the thing will turn inside out or something.

I don't expect perfection because it's impossible, but if they get as closer as possible like MP Cheetor I'll be happy.

Its one that applies to anime in general, unlike us westerners who love bad guys.

Perhaps the japanese know rooting for someone who does things a sane person would never do seems silly in theory to the point where a nice design can be overloorded because HUR DUR THEY'RE EVIL.

I'll just toss my wallet at them when the designers give the chance so I can inflate their popularity

I've heard that you can disassemble him to tighten the transformation joints to keep the chest in place more tightly, but disassembly an MP is never a fun venture.

>>
>>6194241
Go take it up with Takara. Look at MPs, since MP-10 how many Decepticons molds are there compared to the Autobots. There is clearly a reluctance to do more bad guys or to do them well as we see with the coneheads.

>>6194143
Five bucks says inverted folding panels and the transformation will be ripped off from planet steel's 3d printed dinobot. Maybe they'll add a waist

Is there really ankle tilts on this thing?

>>6194328
If anything, that's what both Markets will be like. Hasbros figures on display are usually the test shots/painted protos, heavy in paint and other things.

Megatron just looks like pure win though at this point. Just hoping he doesn't job in the movie, is still Welker, and maybe an explanation on how he changes his body.
>>
>>6194241
Its just some bullshit asspull Hasbro came up with over 10 years ago during Energon that people STILL pull off as true, even though at the time Takara was making more Decepticon than autobot MPs.
>>
>>6194321
at least in childrens anime that seems more to do with the emphasis on roleplay value associated with the merchandising.

>>6194352
It's precedes Energon/Superlink and UT. Look at the Zone and Return of Convoy toylines near the end of G1. Almost all the micromaster toys were branded as Autobots with Decepticons usually being a small fraction of the toyline.

1) Gundam and Transformers are two different francises. G1 is still seen as mostly a kid's franchise with present day pandering to the current grown fandom emphasizing the humor like in Sakamoto's comics. Moreover Gundam is largely seen as something more for adults especially parts of the UC and OYL (this has largely been a self-fulfilling prophesy as franchises like AGE have ironically decimated younger audiences interest). The shows more intended for kids like Build Fighter has largely stripped out these elements.

2) The evil space nazis are also a thinly veiled parable for Imperial Japan and its structure and very much built on Japan's experiences with militarism. And there is certainly a large contingent of apologists for Imperial Japan even now that wishes to see IJ as righteous or "just" even if it wasn't. Arguably this sort of ethos is also in Space Battleship Yamato.

>all this cool shit
>my wallet

I can't cancel enough pre-orders to get all of these.

Thankfully some of the hasbro reveals (mostly tr voyagers) I can starve off because the stickers really do not help, the box sets are tempting though nautica is a let down in the retool department, and because my country has shit distrobution with tr leadersit gives me a chance to see what takara does for overlord which is the ONE guy from tr I want if nothing else

Its mp dinobot that has me reeling, his bot mode would be amazing but like the new mp movie bee he'll have alot of fake kibble just so both modes would be screen accurate, but I'll need him all the same in the hopes mp bw megatron comes.

I swear I'll break something if we get an mp claptrap instead

He's a messed up case.

He started out as concept designs but said concept designs weren't really toy friendly so they went off the ballpark.

I swear the mold would of been more useful if retooled into big convoy (head prongs, chest jewel, big beefy robot shape), because as the default stands it doesn't really suit either alpha trion or lio convoy's shapes save for the oc lion.

Still, I love him for what he is, the first retail alpha trion, that and the amount of paint is nifty, as if the make up for astrotrain being so...bland from the same wave

Could Windblade actually be an extensive Highbrow retool?

I mean, everyone kinda figured it's a new mold since the pictures came out, but there was that picture of her on display with the super extended torso, and that was pretty much a Highbrow/Scourge thing. Do we know for sure it's not just the same toy with a heavily changed shell?

The RID one can too, and I think it has better articulation in the feet, as well as better proportions.

Paint is the problem on that toy. It's fine if you got the Takara version. The battlemask version looks to have a better painted body but then you lose the cityspeaker facepaint, and swapping heads isn't a perfect solution because the reds are different.

But I guess with this TR mold you can do genderswap shenanigans...like Alpha Trion with boobs
>>
I would says the reveal is not bad.
But no big surprise there.

The only thing I was not expecting are the 2 new legend clones mold in the packs rather being individual releases.
At the moment it seems the Hasbro TR line is almost over with Voy and deluxe with new windblade throwing into the repaint mix along with legend seaspray.

I would care less for the movie stuff. But both Megatron look very good. I wonder which will be closest to the screen look.

My biggest problem with the news is they couldn't even give Blitzwing better gun and Overlord looks like just a different color of skyshadow. They barely made the effort to distinguish the two. It does not feel like overlord, maybe it is because the chest is closed?

Also no news on the line after TR.

Anyway, has Takara announced anything new?
They literally just stop giving us news in the LG line since summer of last year. Are they going to use the Blitzwing, octane, or even Broadside's mold? Their own version of Overaload? Where is Six-shots? Why are they running silent?

>Overlord looks like just a different color of skyshadow
No, the entire jet section has been replaced with a new mold, only the tank is exactly the same.

It helps massively for his proportions, I thought we'd have to resort to fan moding overlord but the fact most of the front of the jet comes off to become his shield rather than a similarly sized dink jet like black shadow means they knew what the fuck they were doing

The chest is fine, my problem stems mostly from the legs

They are too squarely and really lack that that classic super robot feel. I kinda forget how Sky shadow transform, but if they give it more padding on the size it would be that much closer to the G1 and cartoon Overlod.
>>
>>6195131

As long as we get Mega and Giga, It won't even need new figures, just a new piece to replace the face on the back.
>>
>>6195048

So uh, whats this? Just another release of MP10?
>>
>>6195300
Because its meant to be a kids toy, not all kids like super robot proportions, outside of an mp I think this one does a fine job.

You can't make the legs thicker with the current design unless they retool the tank and said tank would end up being bigger than the chibi voyager esque tank they have now, as it is the current tank hits both durability and toy safety standards WITHIN hasbro's budget.

The best part of this tooling is they can just swap out the jet or just the tank and hay new robot.

If you want super robot wait for an mp, its your only chance, there is nothing wrong with your opinion, its just not gonna happen with most tr figures

Reusing a couple parts, sure, but it's no different than reusing guns and heads.
She doesn't transform like them, her joints are almost all different, it's a new mold.
It's painfully obvious that it didn't start life as highbrow.

I'm a transformers casual, and only was really a fan of Beast wars and best machines. The only figures I have are Savage/Noble from beast machines and an anniversary Waspinator.

Dinobot was my favorite character, and I saw him in the OP. Is he gonna be wildly available? Do transformers get scalped like other figures?
>>
>>6195682
>Is he gonna be wildly available?
If you have the money to import and keep aware of preorder/release dates, you'll be fine.

If you wait for a local release (if it gets one at all), you could get fucked over.

>>6195624
Only problem is these are painted prototypes, look at his thighs, smothered in paint, same for jet top

Its overkill, it was an excuse to give us a cassette bot without making him a cassette, if anything you're buying the white dino shell and the head is a throw away
>>
>>6195682
The upcoming Dinobot in Op pic is under the adult-collector "Masterpiece" line. It is going to like USD 70~80. It is also a Japanese product meaning you need to either preorder it from Japan/Hong Kong online retailers or local toy speciality shops.
>>
>>6195682

That Dinobot is going to be an MP figure, whose prices range from around $80 to $220. He'll probably be around $120, if the new MP Primal is any indication.

>if anything you're buying the white dino shell and the head is a throw away
you don't speak for the rest of us

Normally you can wait for a general release with standard retail figures but the problem is he's part of the masterpiece line.

While still a retail figure not only does he cost alot more he's a japan/asia release (usually just hong kong), when they announce the dates unless you live near a good HK store that is known for importing them in you best watch online stores like a hawk (hlj, amiami or a local online store of choice like robot kingdom, bbts, premium collectables etc), they tend to pre-order out quickly, sometimes in less than a day others could be 2 weeks.

But he won't get scalped, especially since online stores have order limits

Hello, need opinions about which version of trypticon to go for with my collection.

I have a hasbro metroplex which I got for $88australian dollars when it first came out and I was wrapped, got the SDCC fort max for $220aud because (at the time) it was the cheapest one to get AND had the sword, still beat the takara but not by much.

So, how shall we decide this?

>hasbro version for cost
>hasbro version to match with my metroplex
>takara just so I have a takara, sdcc and a hasbro for braand/type contrast
>sdcc to be a gluten for punishment

Can anyone help make good arguments to help me choose, bare in mind *right now* premium collectables has him for $159.95 pre-order free shipping as we speak but retail fort max I *almost* got for $140aud but couldn't cancel the sdcc's order.

Help?

Before you were paying shitloads of extra money for a figure that isn't noticeably better than the US release that you can easily get for $30. Now you can get him, Tidal Wave, Nautica, and an exclusiv Legends guy for the same price as the Jap version.

If you don't see how one is a significantly better deal then you're stupid.

Yeah, but the Combiner Wars sets weren't exclusives so it felt like they had more chances to be discounted by HTS/Amazon.

Oh my god.
I always thought the BW transformations fudged dimensions a tad, but were always (very very roughly) in line with actual physics. This changes everything!
I need to see all the Beast Wars transformations exactly like this now

>>6195931
Probably a flashback knight

>>6195929
Probably a reflection. Wouldn't make much sense to use translucent material for a joint, they've hardly ever done that.
>>
>>6195929
That's clearly a fucking reflection though. This is commonplace on every Hasbro 3D render.

If you're so retarded that you can't differentiate reflections from transparency and can't fucking into grammar for the life of himself then you need to go back to your hugbox. I say Allspark or TFW.

BBTS exclusives do end up on sale eventually. TRU is a bit trickier. I do remember their RID Warrior Starscream being sold at 9.99 during Christmas, but I don't think their Bee/Steeljaw stasis pod set ever went on sale.

Nah I grew up watching G2 stuff around 92' but I seriously didn't really care about the fiction at all. They were simply cool robots. I was into Kamen Rider, Sentai/Power Rangers more back in the early 90's. Then again I grew up in Asia so we had super robots left and right airing and Transformers were nothing more but another robot show for me.

The best line is the line you like and everyone else's opinion is irrelevant.

I myself like generations ONLY because it complete the seeker collection classics started, TR and CW collectively gave me the best chug like combiners and headmasters that I wanted, but none of these lines are perfect and neither is the one you like the best.

Someone out there likes the rescue bots, others like the bay lines or RiD2015, this also means there is no worse line, if its not nostalgia its one or 2 stand out figures that save/ruin a line for someone else.

When was MP Cheetor announced? I forget what the time frame was from announcement to its projected release (if it doesn't get pushed back again). I almost wish I didn't know about this, it's going to be hard waiting for it to come out. Dinobot was my favorite but I was never able to find a figure of it.
>>
>>6196138
At least that one stays together in vehicle mode.

>>6196155
So does the TR version unless you apply some pressure, it rolls around in bot mode just fine.

And a Fireblast to round out the TR stat cards.

So I'm lost, what bots are in which box set that was announced in the strength and speed sets?

They get better about not just arbitrarily shooting a robot out of nowhere with the Season 2 + new designs, which were much more toy accurate.

It's those shitty cg commercials and cutaways that I remember more growing up actually than the actually show itself. Commercials were easier to remember when you were an impressionable kid. That and Beast Wars because by the age I actually cared about character names at all was when Beast Wars was already airing. Hence why Optimus Primal is still much more nostalgic to me than truck Optimus even though I owned the toy back as early as 1993 or something. The trailer for G1 Optimus is something I would never forget since I stepped on mine and it stabbed my feet when I was a kid.

Thank you for the answers, now here's another, more theoretical one.

I noticed a large portion of the tail/base/transport mode is clear plastic, not a huge deal, but would takara make that solid plastic instead?
>>
>>6196333
Supposedly the center clear piece opens up to reveal a cockpit that other figures can sit in and pilot the spaceship mode
>>
>>6196349
So it would have to be clear so they can see out of it then?

Sounds about right

Looks like the Hisashi Yuki may of been in charge of mp movie bee, either that or he's just a spokes person today who knows alot about it.

Also for the other two.
