I don't know if it's because of the wings on this one, but on wingless leader primes it always bugs be when people don't fold the exhust pipes down. They don't stick up that high in the movies so it's more accurate to just get them out of the way visually.

Takara overpriced leader nobody can get with block fist hands and a stupid combining gimmick ruining the masterpiece quality it almost was.


For half the price, you get a more movie accurate robot with better paint, porportions, accessories, and a G1 truck mode.

And the transformation is actually fun, rather than being tricky and finicky to the point you give up half way and call it "stealth force mode"

You folks do realize that the only GOOD KOs are the ones of G1 toys, THOSE were good toys, not these floppy flimsy hollow overprice over engineered under painted baby toys you lot collect, right?

Prove to me y are fully articulated, there are aftermarket hands, sure,, but that mold had block fists with a slot.

As for the combining gimmick, the feet are the same, and he has the pegs for the backpack, it's there. But you just need a jetfire, and he IS that lanky in the movie.

As for the g1 truck, you want it to tell the story between DOTM amd AOE, when he adopted that alt mode and got shot up and hid, onlky to be discovered for having ordnance in his body still.

But BW was never a huge hit that slowly became one of the worst things in the company. It was just sort of there. It didn't do spectacular, but didn't do poorly either, and all the grognards don't like it much. Which is the opposite of the FF, all the people into older comics liked them but they've been shit since the late 70's and the public don't give a shit about'em.

G1 was the megahit in TF-land, only difference is G1 never stopped being popular while the FF is a dead property and has been for a long time.

Do you have a Bumblebee already? If not, might as well. I don't see much of a reason to get a Chase, unless you're really into collecting characters so obscure they didn't even make it into the original cartoon or are barely mentioned even in the current comics, who probably have included more obscure characters than anything else thus far.

If you're looking for some kind of definitive, super Bumblebee though just go for the MP. Yeah, you'll eat a high cost for a pretty small figure, but he is the best. Otherwise, I think this one is decent. I mean, he's $10, kinda hard to beat that. I'll probably end up fishing around for an MP Bumblebee myself some day, but first I need to get a Prime, Soundwave, Ratchet, Ironhide, Jazz, Grapple, wait until they finally get rid of that trash fucking Seeker mold and finally make a new one...
>>
>>6239964

>>6240274
The MP KO is dirt cheap but if you really want your box to say Takara instead of Takasa, 50$ for definitive Bee isn't the worst way to blow 50$.

Thing is my budget is really limited. And I don't really like Bumblebee as a character that much so I don't have any toys of him yet.
I started collecting not long ago and currently have about 10 tfs. All from different lines and styles. (I have wfc Megs next to a Bendy Prime).
I'm really into legends figures, but i don't have any yet because I've been focused with deluxes.
My end goal is to have enough figures to build up a chess game using CHUG figures (Legends figures will be used as pawns given their size, so I need a lot of them without repeating molds).

I'd say if you don't like the character, don't even bother spending the dosh then. I only collect stuff I like, and I have no real goal-I just buy what I can afford within my meager budget, that appeals to me.

As a figure though, he's decent. I wouldn't rate him as high as, say, Shockwave or Cosmos. But theres certainly worse ways to spend $10.
>>
>>6240300
>I just buy what I can afford within my meager budget
We're on the same page page, m8. I guess I'll go for Chase then, since the red deco looks really appealing in car mode. I already pre-ordered Triggerhappy in a local shop (i'm from BA so most waves take a shitload of time to ship in). And I will probably buy FOC Grimlock to the same dude once it ships in next week. So i have time to wait for Chase.

>>6240263
Which of their paint issues bother you the least?
Bumblebee's chest paint is too thin, and Chase's face paint is too thick.

Personally I'd go for Chase since there will be other Bumblebees.

>>6240344
I really like Bee's head sculpt, but chase being a more obscure character allows me to give him a better personality.

Wheelie is pretty good. Especially if you luck out like I did and get one who fits together snugly in car mode. I still wouldn't discount Bumblebee though, but you definitely are right in saying there will be other Bee's. This one is currently the best cheap one though. The older ones were pretty bad.

I think TR's had Legends about as strong as CW. Most of'em are good, and even the ones that aren't that great are still worth considering for a purchase.

I mean, it doesn't look "good", but now that they've discarded the idea of trying to make a gritty transformers movie where both transformers and humans exist in a civilized and ok-looking world in favor of developing it into something that almost kinda looks like a setting with thought I think I can get behind this flick.
Still probably gonna be a bare minimum effort there, but I think (after 4 goddamn films) it's finally finding the feel that works with it.

>Older ones may be a bit higher
Yeah, just realized after I posted that not everything's worthless. I picked up Legends Arcee and Chromia practically at cost and now they're double.
It's just hard to know whether I should pay 10-15 more per more popular Takara Headmaster figure or not. I shoulda preordered stuff like Mindwipe and Skullcruncher and Weirdwolf but WOOPS. I just hate playing the prediction game of which ones to preorder and which to get on clearance, so I just procrastinate everything and then get discouraged if the price goes up.

>finding a cheap cw groove (as in the deluxe) can be tough
What? They're still listed on amazon.com for $18 free shipping which is less than I paid. I paid $21 each shipped for 3. was $17.50 each before shipping. I was so desperate I got the only store that still had him in stock, and it was one with an October release date instead of that summer. I'm not going to make the same mistake if they do Blast Off.

>hasbro bruticus has a repainted slingshot as a standing for blastoff
Blast Off is annoying but I really hate Takara's colors. I'm expecting a Hasbro exclusive release of the mold to come soon. Seems like they're doing 1 per year. I hope the late timing doesn't fuck that up.

The Hasbro stuff is hard to find affordable. I guess I need to stalk eBay for good deals for a few months.
Not sure what's cheapest for Takara ones. Being in Canada, it might actually be cheapest to ship 2-3 by EMS from Mandarake to relatives in the USA and pick it up during a vacation, assuming I can fit 5-6 gestalts in checked luggage.
G2 Menasor I wanted to get off amazon using bitcoin and purse.io discount but I haven't been able to figure out how to get bitcoin without a cell phone.

This one I expected for them to run out considering I keep seeing the list go out of order in less a few weeks even days after being posted. The -masters line are popular in Japan and most of Asia for the most part, it's only the Western fans that you usually bitch and moan about stuff not being "geee whine" enough. My main gripe is I missed out on Mindwipe and Highbrow but I do have the Hasbro Highbrow so that will hold me up till hopefully I find them during the subsequent toyshows and conventions leading up to TFcon in July.

I just want a competently written film without toilet humour, females written and cast for sex appeal alone, and fucking political agendas. This "fight like a girl" grrl power shit? It's a gender equality related agenda they're shoving into a film about giant fucking space robots. Fuck. Off.

You know what? You don't need your female characters shouting how strong and independent they are to write them as strong and independent. Fucking retards.

I'd like to see combiners kept as box sets and around CW size (ie: no more Devy fuckups where you make the MOST ICONIC fucking combiner hilariously out of scale with all of the other iconic combiners you're releasing at the same time) and the occasional TR released sprinkled between gimmickless figures.

This. The "hurr look how progressive we are" bullshit is worrying to say the least. I don't have a problem with badass female characters (case in point, some of my favourite movies ever are Aliens and Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind) but I do not understand why they can't just have said characters doing cool shit in the movie rather than talking into the camera about how stronk and independent they are.

I do wonder what it is about Transformers that seems to attract SJW types (at least in the West). The comics are written by SJWs, the club fiction is written by an SJW, loads of the fans are SJWs, the wiki is an SJW-infested boil on the backside of the internet, and now it looks like the movies are suffering from the disease too. What's going on and is there any way of stopping it?

Boycott the comics, female figures that aren't arcee and the movies.

Companies trying to earn non-existant brownie points and good PR, by hiring fucktards who want to push whatever their agenda is rather than writers who want to tell a good story.

Thats pretty much the whole thing in a nutshell. It's just something for corporations to latch onto, in the same way politicians latch onto it (or the bible thumping shit, or the ecology shit, or the...etc).

It's all about catering to whatever group you think is gonna jack you off the most at any given moment.

He was just jealous Dery created Alpha Trion and all TFTM characters (except Ultra Magnus, which is basically Powered Convoy recolor), while the most official character he can muster up is a Ravage recolor with internet meme personality.
Also IDW ignored him and Funpube distanced themselves from him, and that says a lot.

To be fair, the original Tripredacus toys had Ramhorn being kinda close to SeaClamp's colors, but yeah. Some color variation would be kinda nice.

There's something that always bothered me about face sculpts and the looks of faces in general. They remind me alot of Power Rangers and the Zords and MegaZords used. Though completely awesome, the Zords were merely vehicles to used, and had no personality of their own.

To me, some of the standard faces shown doesn't look very expressive to me, or looks too generic.

Would like my faces from the MTMTE comics (I am a bit biased, I like the Alex Milne artwork).

Theft of Golden Disk, AVP, Stunticon Job and Shattered Glass were neato, but then they run the latter to the ground and proceed to have self-indulging crossover with their other club fictions, which themselves were already self-indulging enough. Like fuck man, why did you think Mirror Universe/Earth-3 stories are mostly one-shots?
Even BW:U wasn't exempt from that, and honestly it feels like Sorenson's attempt to outdo IDW in terms of fanwanking and darker stories.
I mean shit son, how hard are you gonna try to turn the most vanilla of BW Primes into an IDW Megatron/Prowl amalgalm?
Also, Recordicons were Funpub's, right? What kind of idiot let Walky have influence, however small, over TF fiction? Though, looking back, maybe that's why they fired him when Willis' "vision" start to clash with AVP. Funny that.

Anyway, best Botcon exclusive right here, feel free to disagree fags.
