Sure, this is basically all I did.

>unscrew ratchet assembly using seibertron's fix guide
>instead of cutting the spring and shaving the plastic cross just insert plastic between teeth
>ratchet is gone and is now a friction joint.

I was using someone else's guide but tried to elaborate on what needed to be done, in pics, will follow up if the guy who came up with the idea finds a fault.

> Put something between the teeth of the ratchet. I have used this because it is the least destructive. The ratchet marked in blue naturally slides down the cross marked in yellow as part of its normal movement to clear the upper ratchet which is at nearly the same height. I initially tried a 20c piece, but it is too thick. You need something thin enough to sit between the cross and the teeth of the upper ratchet but firm enough that it is not going to get chewed by the teeth. Eg. card is not going to work. Thin rigid plastic seems to work.
>The ratchet stops being a ratchet and becomes a friction joint with the spring providing the tension to hold Trypticon upright. Because the teeth of the ratchet can’t mesh, there is no immovable object the leg won’t get jammed and you can’t apply too much force.

I sent him a ms paint image of what I thought he was intending and in the end this is what I assumed he did, so far the legs are indeed friction, he doesn't recommend having devastator ride him after mods though or during certain poses.

Just gonna screw up the other leg and then give him a full test run, wish me and trippy back...I don't have the receipt to return him.

Also yes that's the bottom of a yogurt cup, I cut it further than pic related but its still fugly

>>6403004

Well, he stands just fine.

But lets see if he can go backwards, noticed before adding screws no longer does it feel...violent when going backwards.

Odd, the ratchet teeth allow the legs to go backwards but mine felt like he couldn't

>>6403009
Last line of my post
>Also yes that's the bottom of a yogurt cup, I cut it further than pic related but its still fugly

Its basically a ratchet sandwich

>>6403014
Oh good you saw well...awkward.

Let me tell you it would be a pretty BIG lid if it was unless its a anti-still kinda lid for the mouth of a cup, anyway thin rigid plastic works best, like the botton of a disposable cup would work, don't use cardboard, that stuff rots/chewed by ratchets

on an unrelated note, how sturdy is Fort Max's head? I was hesitant to get one because of the idea of a titan master head being plugged into the neck of Fort Max seems like an awful lot of stress for such a tiny joint.

Well you...don't NEED to have the titan master inserted to connect the head into the body, has its own tabs.

The head otherwise sits in an empty cavity in the neck so unless you wrench the fort max head on an angle and then drop kick it the tm will be fine

My Zoom Out and Meantime came in the mail today, these dudes are cool. My wrist isn't quite small enough to fit Meantime around all the way but I'm also not 5 years old so that's to be expected.

Zoomout's chestplate is a friction joint that likes to pop off pretty easily, but it doesn't require much movement to transform so it's cool. I like the little beetle wings on the video screen.

Meantime's noodly limbs lend very well to posing and I dig the light piping on the face. I actually managed to get him into this pose and to stand on his own. Really cool dude.

Spy Shot's transformation is particularly intuitive - he's the one I got without the instructions but he was easy to figure out. It's also delightful that his camera button actually clicks. He's pretty decently poseable but his big arms are hard to manage sometimes. Also has cool light piping in the eyes.

If I get one more of these guys I'm thinking of getting the game controller one.

Sure, I'm not denying that's still a pretty solid mold, but what's the point of re-releasing an inferior version of a character with an inferior paintjob? If they wanted to commemorate the anniversary of that figure they could have at the very least made him in a "full premium" deco, but instead they went with the awfully bright blue every other TLK Prime has.

>>6403095
You know, now that I think of it, it probably wouldn't be hard to come up with some kind of strap I could connect to his extremities to make him fit on my wrist anyway.

Spy Shot? Already have him. He's great.

I don't think I'm going to get all of them - Longview and the phone one seem a bit bulky to me, but I'll at least get High Score.

>>6403099
There is a premium version of the mold with a more accurate head they could have used which makes this release even more confusing.

Also yeah, the paint is questionable.

>>6403108
Kinda.
He looks good in both modes, but his robot mode is lacking good articulation. The base stuff is there but he is just lacking enough to be good.

>>6402659

Can Broadside do the toilet mode Alpha Trion can do?

>>6403131
Longview is kinda lame in binocular mode but the robot is full bodybuilder A E S T H E T I C S, and I love the flip phones (imho, the later repaints look far better) for how accurate they are. You should probably get both, and if you do why not also going after the Gameboy-based one for the sake of completionism.

>>6403090
He looks a lot better than I expected, that new torso worked wonders. I'll get two of him and mix and match limbs to remove Rippersnapper and Sinnertwin.

I'm not even into non-Deluxe TRs but this motherfucker is really hyping me up. I might literally end up putting him in a glass display alongside Fortress and Devastator for how cool he looks.

>>6403093
The game controller one is super tiny, at least compared to a real one. I'm skin and bones so I can still wear Meantime while only cutting off circulation a bit, but that controller is too small to even do that.

Also don't recommend the binoculars unless you're fine with no arm swivels. Looks neat though.

I wish. I got that gun from buying the 3P Prowl/Steak/Smokescreen legends set, and I kinda got bored with the figures because their transformations were dumb and their alt modes sucked, but the guns are nice. Not worth 50 bucks, or whatever I paid for them, though.

Weijiang Megs review.

Looks out of this world. But a word of warning, if you order now you won't be getting the version he has. It's gonna be one with extra paint sprayed on and I personally think it looks like shit. The version he got in the video was a very limited number of first editions.

Is there any better way to lock TLK Hound's mid section together? Anytime I pick him up it slides apart.

>>6403090

I broke down and preordered the second run MP-36 from BBTS. Fingers crossed they fix some of the clearance/QC issues.Is there any word on Takara doing anything different this time around?

How hard is it to remove the BBTS orange caps?

25 good for CW Ultra Magnus?

Shit, I mean I wouldn't buy it unless it's heavily clearance. I should go to bed.

so would you guys say 85 bucks for the Liokaizer set is a good deal?

>>6403905
That's just about right considering how much of a mediocre figure he is. I'm one of the unfortunate bastards who had to pay 60 for it at TRU expecting some genuinely good figure for the robot aesthetics alone, and oh my, what a deep disappointment.

>>6403913
The Autobots set is on heavy clearance in asian markets (SGD100) but seeing how you already have those other molds, just pick up the 25 dollar Magnus and maybe Arcee separately

>>6403915
I paid 110 for it and have no regrets, the limb bots are pretty nice, Deathsaurus is the weak on the set, but I love his deco and robot beasts are always welcomed.

For the most part I don't even mind headmasters, but that argument is fucking stupid, and completely ignores the myriad characters who were never headmasters before.

Galvatron should have been the release of the decade but he was marred by three major flaws, and two of them were due to having to submit to the line wide gimmicks: his cannon placement, his massive kibble backpack solely for his dumb third mode, and of course that fucking mask.

>>6403991
That's precisely why it's such a bummer on the TR figure, this is the only halfway decent Galvatron figure (the Energon one that's twice as wide as it is tall and stands either stick straight or doing the A in the YMCA doesn't count) and they botched it. He isn't completely ruined- in fact I like him quite a bit- but he's not the toy he could be, and it just feels that much more disappointing with how close they were and how stupid the reasons are that they didn't get there.

The leader class and the mp are roughly the same size.

Well if cash is your problem then legends provided the design works for you, my recommendation is tracking down the one on mandarake, I can't say the shipping would be cheap but iirc there was ONE in one of the store listings that was marked down to 8000yen, something about the cassette door damaged, looks like a small crack on the hinge, website has the pic in question but its just pure japanese autism that he'd be marked down so low.

I got a mp smokescreen for 4000yen because he'd been "well used" and had a tiny paint chip on his bumper, though regardless of my suggestions and your cash whatever one you like best save up more cash, you'll be chasing up all of the minions sooner or later

Like seriously. We know Takara shit is "better" for collectors. But y'all brag about it so much, you guys turn away potential allies, thus shoot yourselves in the foot.

I have zero sympathy for you.

> 40 minutes

What the fuck? Do people watch this???

I mean I sit down, and I think "Boy I could sure got for an hour long TV episode of a quality TV series, or I could watch some Youtuber."

Any pics of how it works in vehicle mode?

>>6404870
I wouldn't watch that shit, but honestly given how terrible so much tv is, I don't find it odd that people are watching so much youtube. It's content that is more directly catering to your interests on a personal level, created by other faggots who are the same way. It's much more engaging in that sense.

>>6404411

Let's not start that again.

There's more on Chosen Prime

>>6404926
Not bad, now it looks more like the show model, not that it was featured much.

>Has/Tak didn't use the Overlord/Sky Shadow mold for Tidal Wave
Missed opportunity.

I loved his new truck mode. It felt more Houndish vs his first one.

>>6404947
Takara actually did win again though. Stop being a poorfag that only afford figures with shit paint and cheap stickers off of greasy Walmart shelves.

>>6404945
The Shirt and Pants transformation is much like Armada Tidal Wave's. I'd imagine it would be a heavy remold though.

>>6404972
>he's unironically a takaracuck
Are you still delusional about MP-36?

>>6404979
Meh, tidalwave could transform without separating

Yeah, and Broadside's alt-modes make more sense.

>>6404947
Not even a Takaracuck, but Hasbro's decision to use shitty cheap stickers on Leaders and Voyagers is beyond retarded. In this case, yes, Takara "won" as far as Voyager and Leader class figures go.

And I say this as someone who despised Arms Micron figures for the exact same reason. Takara was retarded for the stickers in that line as well.

>Takarabros are going to get both Cerebros and Fortress faces
>Hasbrocucks are stuck with just the Cerebros face

feels good to be a Takarabro.

>>6405067
As a display piece for manchildren who are sunbowcucks. But for people who actually like good toys, it's kind of a mess.

Do people still believe that Beast Wars rumour? Because it's fake. Hehehe...

>>6405064
I want this, but not 90 bucks plus 12 dollar shipping want it.

I bought the SDCC version, company war baby.

>>6405104
Someone here, probably >>6405095, told bunch of "insider info" lies and Autodumbass passed it on to Seibertron who frontpaged it.

>>6405113

>it sounds like he's in the midst of a pretty intense orgasm.

That's what I thought. His voice turns you on and brings out your repressed gayness. Meanwhile, to a true straight man like me, there's nothing sexual about the way he talks.

>>6404926
Now that is cool, and functional!
