W3: Cindersaur, Outback

gotcha - missed that
>>
>>6440064
It was the minorest of nitpicks I could think of. I'm excited for him anyway so he can complete the set of 3 for me. Missed out on T30 back in the day, and I basically made assumptions ahead of time that he'd roll around again for PotP. The only thing I'm not entirely keen on is the apparent 4 month gap between wave 1 in December and wave 2 not till April. But if spacing them out means a better chance at stores stocking each wave well, I'll accept it.
>>
>>6440075
It's nothing new, they may have started that this year since it took forever to start seeing wave 2.

I feel bad for whoever's interested in Leader Primal since all stores will be filled to the brim with Rodimus, and Optimus.
>>
>>6440070
That weapon mode looks pretty sweet, might actually get him for that (better than Skullgrins pathetic attempt).

Also, really cool that the TM face can peak through the Decoy suit helmet.

>wanting combiner Dinobots

One of the coolest things about the Dinobots is that they could go toe to toe with combiners like Devastator without being a combiner.

If we can get Voyager Predacons, then there's no reason we shouldn't get Voyager Dinobots.

While MPMs are still kind of on topic, is it normal to have to squeeze MPM Bee's chest down to get his side panels to tab in? The slots don't reach the tabs otherwise and having to squeeze/put pressure on a toy always makes me nervous as fuck

The way they described Lynx Master, it's implied that the combiners is almost completely dependent on Sky Lynx, everyone else is there for their bonuses, and that's before Vector Sigma gave them their overclocked power up.

So, if I get this right, the gimmick of PotP Leaders is that they're all going to be Deluxe-sized robots capable of combining with trailers or vehicles to form Leader-sized ones?

I mean, not that it doesn't sound cool as fuck, but it's also deebly concerning given Hasbro's reputation for cheaping out on figures lately. I don't want my fan-voted Primal to look like a fucking mediocre mess.

Unfortunately that seems to be the case. The concept is awesome, the execution and corner cutting is what will kill it if Rodimus is any indication. And the deluxes are going to be CW tier with the voyagers able to be torsos so it is likely that something is going to be compromised in some manner.

We're probably going to be looking at a lot of third party kits if they even bother.

We're actually closer now than last time, Takara only needs to issue make heads, melee weapons for all of them, armor attachments, and a torso incorporating two figures.

They can already use the TM vehicles, and Titan masters, and tweak them depending on the figure.

Now that I think about it, Deathsaurus would have probably been a cop out by having his animal parts as his pre prime mode (maybe combining them like the cassette combiners?) since I can't think of a simple way to make him weaker or bigger.

That'd be fucking stupid to lock away a popular team behind a $150 price tag. Devastator and Predaking work as a set that's their main gimmick.

Again, widely recognized as one of the best combining robots of all time. It's hardly even stylized.

Yeah I can see how people prefer the CW Devastator to the 3P options, as most of them don't really look that G1ish.

I've had mine for almost a week now and been pretty much in love with it, but hadn't transformed it yet. Your post made me decide to go for it and unfortunately mine is just as bad as everyone else's.

when you get to then end, everything goes out of whack no matter how perfect you are. Every time you finally get one tricky tab to stay another one instantly pops out. It took me about 10 min to transform and another 30-40 min trying to get every tab to stay. Affter everything, I still have one or two tabs out place by the drivers window

These are the first official Transformers I've picked up since CW G2 Superion.

Chase: He's got a good headsculpt and I like that he retains the throttlebot signature mustache look. Other than that I'm not really impressed. Legends class ain't for me.

Sawback: The lion mode is OK and the other two are there. His actual face kind of sucks.

Black Shadow: He's great everything locks solidly and headmaster gimmick is unobtrusive. Would have liked wrist swivel and a panel to cover the gap in his arm. These stickers though the logos on the shoulders and tank are fine but the ones on the wings are peeling off at the ends.

Ideally stickers would go away but if they have to use them just give me a sheet so I can put them on myself.

All others released since then were either retools (CW Prime from Menasor, TR Powermaster / Ginrai from Ultra Magnus), pretools (TR Voyager Prime from Blitzwing) or side figures simply not consistent with the scale or aesthetics of regular figures (Legends, WfC and FoC, Cyber Battalions, etc).

In my opinion, it's about fucking time. I've spent more than a decade with the old Voyager being the only large Prime in my CHUG collection, let's hope Hasbro doesn't fuck this one up.

Not at all, I was actually considering getting the Cybertron pack for the Powermaster before the leak. Reused molds are fine with me, but you have to be really fucking dense if you can't see the obvious advantages of a figure entirely built from the ground up to represent a certain character.

>Roberts did this
>All the bots who don't look like they could transform
Okay, I'll try to explain this.
Roberts is not the artist of the books.
Nick Roche and Alex Milne are the artists who designed most of the Transformers from MTMTE.
They, especially Alex Milne, often draw model sheets demonstrating how the characters transform.
Taking a look at Springer or the 3P figures that faithfully recreate the characters should make this evident.
However, there have been more characters post-Dark Cybertron that do seem to be designed with no alt-mode in mind, but I'd say any of the Windblade books are guilty of impossible transformations more than any other post-Death of Optimus Prime book so far.

>when you're so fucking delusional to think that a 150 USD product can hold a candle to a 600 dollar one in terms of complexity, paint, articulation, substance, etc. It's embarrassing.

It's not about being comparable products. Most people just want a Toy that A) Combines B) Transforms C) Looks like the character they remember. the 150 option does all of that at 1/4 the cost, and in terms of devastator the hastak excels at C while most 3P offerings are just Green Giants made of construction truck robots, the only one that really looks like Devy is DX9 Hulkie.

Why spend $600 when I can get all the features I want for 1/4 the price when at the end of the day it's just going to set on a shelf making C again a much more important factor than one might originally consider.

Sark does good work when there's somebody there to clean and fix his shit up. Think of it like the Star Wars original trilogy and Sark is George Lucas. Unchained, he's an absolute madman and goes wild with overcomplicated greebly designs and absurd proportions that only high schoolers would ever think were cool but when you have a Gary Kurtz figure to reign it all in and clean up the mess, you end up with a pretty attractive piece. Sark by himself can only produce hot garbage, which Feral Rex would have been had Sark been given final say.

Can we please stop with the whole delusion that UW Devestator functions as an MP stand-in? This isn't even about official vs. 3rd party. This is about people trying to say with a straight face that it matches the complexity, plastic quality, and overall aesthetic as an MP figure, official out otherwise. It just does not match up and stands out against the higher quality figures like a sore thumb.

I understand if you like the set. That's fine and I'm not here to debate that. I'm happy for you that you enjoy it. I really am. I just can't let people do this to their displays and not say something. Hasbro, Takara, it doesn't matter what your preference is. It doesn't matter if you equipped it with an add-on kit to improve it. It just makes your display look cheap and awful when you try to pass it off as an MP by putting it there with the rest of your MP figures.

Please, I am begging you people. Just move it to your Generations shelf where it belongs. It wasn't meant to mingle with the higher end collectables. I know it hurts to hear this but there just does not exist a good MP Devestator set. ToyWorld tried and failed, Gravity Builder aims for a completely different aesthetic and scale, as does Hercules and Green Giant, and Hulkie is only for Legends scale. There is no MP worthy Devestator yet. Trying to compromise with CW/UW Devy only hurts your display.

What? No! That's exactly the only thing, if not the only thing, that CW Devastator succeeds at. Yes, the individual robots are rubbish, the engineering is childish and atrocious, but look at how aesthetically pleasing this motherfucker is! Give it an upgrade kit and a few reprolabels and you basically have something that's genuinely on tier with Masterpieces, at the very least as far as displaying it goes. Personally, I like to keep it on a separate shelf next to Maximus and Trypticon since it's better to keep all these massive figures contained somewhere else, but I wouldn't mind having him alongside MPs one single bit.

I've already packed up my Feral Rex and it's on its way to Ebay as we speak.

I expect that the Takara Predaking will be everything that the MMS one is not: enjoyable to transform, fun to play with and stable as a rock.

Granted it would be cool if, I don't know, he came as a little spark/key/matrix/whatever to someone like, I don't know, the 'Last Autobot' from the old comics.
