Shit, is that a Scourge? What's it exclusive to?
>>
>>6290107
i find it hard to believe anyone actually thought scourge wasnt going to be high on the release list. the only real question would be whether they release him before octane
>>
>>6290101
To the surprise of no one.
>>6290116
Should be Tokyo Toy show like last time. We knew they'd have a Black Convoy there, so it made sense it was him. Shame he's not keeping his RTS face, that would have made him stand out more.
>>
This week was the Beijing International Film Festival and Paramount Pictures was present at the event,they showed to us an China exclusive trailer,it was like 2:26 minutes long.Now I will describe the all new footage:

The trailer opens with Optimus landing on what it looks like to be Cybertron then we have the Paramount logo,the next shot is narrated by Anthony Hopkins:"It started as a legend,one of the greatest of all" and we see silver knight Optimus Prime and old movie version Megatron ,Optimus has a sword and a shield(the shield looks more like human shield) with the Decepticon logo in "V" and Megatron has a sword and an Decepticon flag,the logo is in "V",they look at each other,then we move on and we see a lot of cybertronian knights,the background looks like Cybertron with green?
Pretty weird,then we get some sort of ship floating in space,it has in his interior the allspark that looks very different,we get some shots of the WW2 and there are transformers too,more knight shots,we see a lot of ships going to Earth,the planet thing that looks like it's uniting? Transforming?
We get a glimpse of what looks like to be The Fallen,we see Barricade at the Junkyard with other Decepticons,an shot of Hot Rod where he saves Vivian and the trailer ends with Optimus vs Megatron scene from the last trailer but longer.
It was cool,it might be the best one yet.Feel free to ask me any questions.
>>
Let's just hope he's painted/tampoed, and not stickered.
>>
>>6290137

Is the rumours of Jean Dujardin as Hot Rod, Jess Harnell back as Barricade and Frank Welker as Megatron true?

>>
>>6289955

You can't seriously tell me those look good, there's weathering a figure then there's smearing black paint all over it and trying to pass it off as "weathering".
It takes subtlety to get weathering right, those look like some 12 year old just tried weathering a Gundam model for the first time.
>>
>>6290151
They didn't talk,only Megatron and I can confirm that's Frank Welker.

Because some of us grew up with that cheap garage and respect the main toylines?

In all honesty arch enemy is the one 3p I would ever buy...and he'll go alongside my deluxe lg-ex black convoy and my voyager lg-ex black convoy.

>>6290222
But he said he owns the original which in itself was a beautiful toy.

As for paint flaking off all toys will have that issue sooner or later unless we store them in climate controlled cabinets and never touch them, therefore all toys are shit and we must resort to treating toys like statue shit

>>6290235
Subjective.

>dat back
If that panel could of folded inwardshe would of been perfect
>dat paint rub issues
they chose stability of the gun barrel and connection assuming their consumer base would be delicate and gentle without the autism required to transform him with full accessories 100 times a month, said consumer base is also Japanese and not a ham handed westerner, granted said westerner found play flaws, but mp's are moveable statueshit, you pick a mode and stick to it
>dat qc with accessories
THAT is a problem

Really though all megatron toys, be it mp or 3p are flawed, from trigger crotched g1, stiff legs g2, right up to despotron's gun barrel slide gap.

Therefore, everything is shit unless we accept it

>>6290249

On one hand its kinda pathetic to have these brand wars, we have people clamoring over marvel legends figures and people collecting barbies, people have their own taste, should be sharing the love of choice rather than thinking pointless boasting would "turn us around", lets face it we end up buying more "cheap" crap to endure the suffering and thus making one brand grow.

On the other clearly its some 15yr who's having too much fun triggering us, we are easily triggered.

At least do yourself a favor and stick to has-tak so its on topic at least

>>6290261
That notBumblebee head is still a major eyesore. It feels like they put this guy in the movie to ensure Hasbro can keep using the Hot Rod name.

My money is that he'll have more screen time than Jolt or Dino but less than Sideswipe or Jazz.

That cab just hangs on the back of the robot mode. It's packed disassembled from the main figure so I guess the photographer decided to take a separate photo of it.

The TF fandom in general is by a large margin one of the most autistic things I can think of.

I had a dream that for a wave of warrior class figures in RiD, there were retools of Combiner Wars deluxes and people were bitching about Sideswipe and Drift having the wrong base molds (especially since they wanted normal Sideswipe and Drift CW instead of their RiD counterparts) and how it was mostly yet another version of guys that had toys to the point that a cartoon Decepticon who was prominent in showing off the gimmick of the line wasn't there.
Have I transcended into a higher plane of fandom bitching to the point I can hear responses to things that don't exist?

Ok, this is actually pretty clever. LG Blaster has the Headmaster face painted with a blue brow, so when the helmet goes over it, the helmet has a blue line behind the visor instead of having nothing like the Hasbro version.

My honour code dictates zero instructions and zero reference vids, so I'm taking my sweet time. Almost there.

Nvm. I didn't notice cuz the lights are low but I did get some scuffs to the tip of the barrel. Bummer, but not the end of the world. Also got a hard to notice scuff on the hand where the stock attaches.
Obviously these things shouldn't happen but if you avoid picking up this figure because of minor paint wear issues, you'll really be missing out. Hopefully Takara resolves this for future releases if this mold. As for me, I'll just touch up those spots with replacement paint someday if I ever feel bothered.

A flawless figure has never been released by any company anyway so who cares in the end. Also, the photo makes the scratches look much worse than they appear in-hand. Food for thought if u don't own this yet.

I can appreciate a good 3P, but they're not Transformers, as far as I'm concerned. They're similar, but it's like comparing Lego to Mega Blocks. I'm glad competition exists, but I like what I like. I'm happy you prefer 3P and I wouldn't want to take that away from you, but it's not for me.

>>6291347
Not that I don't think you did alright, cost wise, compared to what you might have paid, but...
Why on Earth would you spend that much money on that particular figure?
>>
>>6291123
No. It's more so how low-quality the paint is. People have paint that chips/scratches on one or two figures, and they start this retarded crusade against paint, as though it were the fucking devil. Yet MP figures like the Datsuns, Ironhide, Bee, Prime/Nemesis and even Tracks have paint that doesn't fucking chip at all because it's higher quality and applied/sealed better.

The issue isn't paint. The issue is the quality of the paint. This is why people complain about Ratchet ruining his paint, but not Ironhide. Exact same figure and transformation, but only one chips itself to bits. Think about it.
>>
>>6291354
I think it's a really good interpretation of Hot Rod and I prefer it to pretty much every CHUG Roddy.

Plus, it's like $109 in America money. A hundred bucks is about my limit for hard-to-find Transformers. I wouldn't spend that much on, say, a Titans Return Voyager, but for something that's been out of print for a few years I consider it reasonable.

Besides, it fit my budget. Or at least it did, until PayPal decided to screw me.

Not saying you're wrong, but there has never been an MP of "this quality" before. The design and materials used are top notch, just the paint tolerances could've used a little more thought. On the end though, I prefer paint to grey plastic. No matter how good that plastic might be, it can never compare to a painted surface. Glossy unpainted plastic always has a hint of transparency to its surface--I believe that's why they cast mp-10 in more of a matte red plastic. They could've cast megs on matte grey, but matte doesn't suite his appearance.
>>
>>6291173
I don't think a clear coat would help because his paint scratching occurs due to parts rubbing too tightly against surfaces. A clear coat or repaint would still have the same issue--probably worse actually cuz it would be thicker.

The silencer can be modded I think do it doesn't scratch. Check tfw2005.

After the umming and aahhhing of keeping the leader seeker trio boxed or not I come to the conclusion this cheap shit isn't worth jack until I'm ancient and I doubt I'd live long enough to make $10 profit.

Found something odd about this trio though, if I recall the release order was thundercracker, starscream then skywarp.

>thundercracker has spotty silver paint apps but his joints are tighter than my legends jetfire to the point where the ratchets in the arms echo in my house
>starscream is looser than the whore next door but has zero paint app problems because there is hardly any to begin with
>skywarp is perfect in everyway aside lack of crown including super loud and tight ratchets like thundercracker

So what is happening here, isn't mold degradation supposed to set in later releases, if anything skywarp is the best version of the mold I've seen, and somehow the paint apps have gotten better too.

And in all honesty I never had a figure with such tight ratchets before either, from mp's to mainline toys never heard them that loud before

>Classics wasn't complete until generations if you didn't shell out for funpub stuff.

>Prime only had the arms micron guys

LOL I have respect for mp05 but NOBODY has EVER claimed it was the best transformer of all time.
Also MP01 is good and at the time of release was absolutely awe-inspiring.

I don't know if you'd count the FOC seeker mold. All of them are technically under Generations, but Starscream was under the FOC subline while the other two were under Thrilling 30.

The takara versions were still under their generations banner

Be warned: Some heads are really shitty. I think this has all the Funpub exclusive heads, but know that there are still issues with some.

>G2 Hoist and Electro have misassembled shoulders, which prevents them from properly transforming
>CW Bludgeon has G2 Onslaught/Pyra Magna's misassembled knees
>Pirate Scorponok's headmaster gimmick has a very hit-or-miss record for stability

Ultimately, you know exactly what you're getting with these figures. I personally love some molds so much that I'd pay outrageous prices for them, but I can't say that there's many of them.

I mean,new wheelie is definitely a better choice than old wheelie for dion, and with TR, they can use any number of heads for Orion pax that would fit better than Kup (such as the PMOP inside head, though the eyes might look a bit big on Kup) so it's definitely possible we'll get it the same way we got convobat, but I wouldn't count on it.

...they actually sculpted the markings for the landing strip. Unfortunately, the sculpted details don't match the sticker-detail, so now it just looks weird.

Meh, at least with the sculpted markings, it'll be easier to paint the landing-strip if you remove the stickers.
>>
>>6292153
Oh I was looking for some horrible break in the plastic, lol.

I wonder how far this wave of toys got in the design process before deciding to use stickers? If they intended on using stickers from the start they could have just put flat, gritty surfaces to grip them better, but I guess all the sticker'd over details means they intended to paint or tampo them before the beancounters put a stop to it.
>>
>>6292169
It's probably due to Broadside using a ridiculous amount of paint already. Better parts separation would have prevented this.
>>
>>6292173
>better parts separation to achieve different colors without using paint

Is there such a thing as pictures of confused-looking hasbro designers with question marks next to their heads?
>>
>>6292169
Those leaks of TR Prime and Megs already indicated they were going to use foil stickers and it seemed like quite early in the planning process still.

I'm surprised no one at TakaTomy called out Hasbro's poor use of the stickers on detailed surfaces. I have quite a bit of non-transformer Takatomy stuff where they go sticker-crazy, like those Tomica transformers, and Takatomy has always been quite smart about their sticker usage. They either have them on plain and flat surfaces or design recesses just for the stickers (like those RID insignia ones).
>>
>>6292169
Man, I really hope they drop the sticker shit for Blitzwing and Octane.
>>
>>6292285
I wouldn't even mind stickers if they were actually good.

Hasbro's stickers are like bits of paper towel held on with spit.

Hasbro quality control is something else. Sort of related, the face is fucking dark blue plastic painted over, while the fans are white plastic painted over.

What the hell? You'd think the face and fans would use the same mold, but they seem to use different molds despite them being the only new parts added to the Blurr mold. It would have been easier to just have them both molded in purple.

MP Tracks/Road Rage and some paint.

how's laser prime?

Yeah, but these are the same people that casted a yellow face in red and painted it yellow and casted a spoiler in clear blue painted it silver and then again in yellow.
>>
>>6292153
I did the same thing, anon, a few days later the sticker became less stuck to the sculpted detail.
>>
So the square gap on Megs back is cartoon accurate, neat?
>>
>>6292420
He's fine, but he uses a ton of paint. Danger areas are the shoulders, the pelvis, and the black front of the legs, but I don't think you'll have paint chip problems if you just transform it correctly. Stickers aren't peeling, so that's a victory right there.

They look cool, but I feel a little cheated. At least Titans Return incorporate the Titan Masters at every size class.

As much as I hate to admit it, Hot Rod was fucked either way. It was either a yellow spoiler or gray pieces, and they went for the spoiler.

>this one shot of Megatron's back in the cartoon has exactly one detail that the MP has so you can't say it isn't screen accurate
>Even though if you compare to this shot in particular then there are details that are missing on the MP like having proper raised surfaces around the head, a flat back and non-hollow arms

'kay

>>6292384
>tfw no MP BW Quickstrike to replace the garbage toy
Quickstrike was my first "TV character" Transformer, and it fucking sucks. There's no detail on the robot head, the robot mode looks like ass and the whole thing uses that godawful clear plastic.

I liked it as a kid, but it really is a shitty toy in hindsight.
>>
>>6292456
>use stickers AND tons of paint
This is why Hasbro needs to lose its Transformers license.
>>
>>6292484
I hate to say it, but paint was unavoidable due to the way the mold parts are divided, but yeah, nothing was stopping them from using tampos.
>>
>>6292498
I don't understand why they have to make all the faction symbols stickers whenever there are stickers at all.

It's like a bad parody of Reveal the Shield. Now we have the toyline known as Peel Off the Shield.
>>
>>6291662
Why is stuff created before FunPub on that list? OTFCC Sentinel Maximus and Apelinq, as well as Shadow Striker and Roulette.

>>6291687
... aaaand yup, Treadshot was an unused Hasbro mold as well. {you just had to check the wiki}

>>6291708
and then the market price was destroyed by them being available online from the UK convention when they didn't sell out.

To most besides autistic twits, Botcon is Funpub and Funpub is Botcon, regardless of which H was involved in the convention.

So I kind of want a Knight Prime. Which one is the best one? Like, mostly for articulation and posing over 100% match.

There can be a none answer.

I saw the Premier Edition Prime today and it seemed like it might be OK, I remember someone talking about the Voyager mold being pretty good recently, unless that's a different mold coming soon.

Takara DMK Prime but non-convertable, mostly for posing and all that.

As for convertable ones, I guess wait for the eventual repaint editions of the voyager. Not a fan of how the eyes and weapons are painted.
