Selling TR Titans Ark with upgrade kit and metroplex with upgrade kit for 100 each. Also have masterpiece Starscream if any is interested in him for cheap. I have the box and everything but would rather just trash it. It's obscenely large for such a small figure.

And here we are, Hasbro making a round table display of the Artifacts like I suspect someone would. To make your own, buy an Evolution Leader from Power of the Primes and cut off the Halo from the card backing inside the box. Then use display risers if you have them or just let them sit on their spots without those risers, since I don't think any other Leader release in AOTP will have this Halo.

So when does this guy go up for preorder, anyway?

>>11500726
Maybe Friday?

>>11500566 (OP)
How come Megatronus, Alpha Trion, Micronus and Lego Maxhomo don't have the "Prime" title?

>>11500751
Most were real characters before 13 bullshit retcons.

>>11500753
Pretty sure they were all originally primes regardless of any retcons

>>11500767
Sure but why don't they wear the title?

>>11500579
Oh wow, links nobody ever uses

>>11500769
Because they’re not anymore?

>>11500767
No they weren't.

>>11500579
Thanks I wanted to check these

>>11500751
>Megatronus, Micronus
Purely space issues, they're both named as Primes everywhere else.

Looks like faggots got the patch notes and the new meta is: hating on the Thirteen out of the fucking blue.

This is just evil.

>>11500916

Hell yeah, that looks sick
>>11500919
I’ve never understood the hate for the Thirteen, they’re pretty cool characters that help build Cybertron's history. I understand if someone might find them a bit boring, though, since some of them never get to do anything

Now you can recreate Nemesis Prime's iconic floating torso super mode!

>>11500934
I'm genuienly wondering if they're even going to keep the super robot head

>>11500926
>>11500927
Nemesis never had a trailer, either in the show or his original toy, so it makes no sense for him to have one for this release

>>11500926
>>11500927
>>11500934
Please understand, tooling a new face was expensive, surely that covers the trailer?
>>11500937
He has the hands.
>>11500938
>either in the show
Rewatch the show before you embarrass yourself.

>>11500941
Honestly the saber is cooler accessory than the trailer

Reminder that this is $100+ for a voyager and 3 minicons

>>11500938

>>11500946
>>11500941
Is he supposed to be a darker blue?

>>11500941
Never has a face sculpt needed panel-lining more than him

>>11500949
The one in the package actually is different colors.

>>11500941
>>11500946
Alright, my bad, it shows up for one scene and is never used for a super mode. I honestly never noticed before because it blends into the rest of his body and his toy didn’t come with one.

>>11500916
>>11500918
>>11500921
oh cool
>>11500927
>>11500943
fucking what. do we have a price on the hot wheels guys? are they overpriced to fuck, too?

>>11500927
Powerlinx Hot Shot also came with the original. Very odd strategy.

>>11500956
My original star saber got fucked by the clear plastic of the pommel piece cracking, so I'm interested in this.
Also own Commander Armada Prime so I can use the trousers with this guy if I want to.

so...this is the power of not being frameslop....not bad...not bad at all....

>Nemesis doesn’t have a cab
Kinda glad. Didn’t want it anyway.

He’s awfully…blue.

>>11500976
Nemesis can transform into a truck why would he need to call a taxi?

>>11500976
He is the cab, that’s the truck part, he doesn’t have the trailer. I think the toy on display is a prototype because the toy in the box has different colors and he seems to be missing a lot of paint apps

No Decepticon emblem? Why?

>>11500982
Because he wasn't a Decepticon?

>>11500979
>>11500980

Fuck. I meant the trailer. Is it really 200 bucks, even without it?

>>11500986

Speaking of, Bone Shaker is an Autobot. Missed opportunity.

>>11500956
>>11500982
I think the one on display doesn't have the final color scheme applied to it

>>11500987
It’s listed as a Commander online, so it’s probably around $90-100, unless they pull a Star Convoy or something and reveal it’s cheaper

>>11500989
Yep, they felt the need to put the emblem in the box. That doesn't mean he was a Decepticon in fiction, something you should know if you actually watched the show.
I'm glad they don't put a nonsensical Decepticon emblem in the toy.

>>11500987

100. Dammit.

>>11500995
This guy licks boots.

>>11500990
Pretty sure neither have insignia on the figure themselves, so do what you want. I'll be putting Boneshaker with my Cons.

Retro Hoist has preorders available but Seaspray says sold out? Already?

>>11500999
he went up 2 hrs ago on walmart, pulse has him rn

Would it have been better or worse if they waited until they had Jetfire and Overload to make bad guy recolors of and sold all of them with the trailer as a $300 set?

>>11501010
Worse because I just want Spacewarp

>>11500997
>This character is a puppet of Sideways, a creation of Unicron, and it's trying to kill both Autobots and Decepticons alike! But he NEEDS to have a Decepticon emblem because reasons, even if it doesn't make any sense! If your you disagree you're Hasbro bootlicker!
That's how retarded you sound.

>>11501004
And just like that, it's back available.

>>11501019
you do know sideways literally had both autobot and decepticon symbols right

Whats Nemesis again? The SDCC Pulse exclusive?

>>11501055
He did but not Nemesis, retardo

When should the Void Rivals Jetfire pack be on pulse?

Where?!

>>11500973
Wait. Was does the Cobra turn into for LioKaiser?
Shoulder shield?

>>11501057
He’s listed as the PulseCon exclusive so I assume yes, unless PulseCon is something else
>>11501099
Pulse has him currently for Premium members only

>>11501110
That opens to everyone at 12cst right?

>>11501109
or alternate arm

>>11501109
I think it’s technically a shoulder cannon but also >>11501115
>>11501112
I think so, but don’t quote me on that

>>11501110
Oh, Pulsecon. Thats not for a while.

>>11501109
"Shouler cannon"/mount for the whole teams weapons or replaces Hellbat as an arm

>>11501121
Honestly, given Powerlinx Hot Shot was PulseCon 2023's exclusive and it ended up going into outlet on Pulse, it wouldn’t surprise me if Nemesis ends up doing the same

>Get Nemesis repaint

I weep, of course the monkey's paw would curl on me here

>>11501134
Pretty sure this set has more mass appeal than friggin' Hot Shot.

>>11501055
>you do know sideways literally had both autobot and decepticon symbols right
Because he was a spy, his whole deal was infiltrating the Autobot/Decepticon ranks, you moron. Nemesis Prime was just created to destroy the Autobots and Depecticons directly.

Hey wait, Star Saber has its own dedicated mold, right? Recent cassettes/micros/minicons are gangmolded with parts on larger bots.

Really hate that Nemesis has the normal Star Saber instead of the fake black red version.

>>11501172
How else will they get you on the hook?

>>11500921
>No verbal Saber
>No trailer
>Only the fucked up head and no alt parts
>100 bucks
All the things I was hoping they wouldn't fuck up.

>>11501189
By being a cool black repaint
Same way exclusives used to be

>>11501195
I'm sure they'll release a repaint with an alternate head and recolored saber next year

I got a Legacy skids for 15 euros and i have some issues with the alt mode
Is ot just a bad mold thaz won't stay together or am i doing something wrong with the transformation?
I really like him his articulation in the legs could be better and hes not as solid as id like but for 15 euros hes pretty great

>>11501206
I was hoping they'd release the Star Saber with Powerlinx Optimus, now those molds are held hostage with a figure I don't want. I fucking hate this method they've been using for.modern minicons.

>>11501228
It's a bit of both. You have to tuck the legs all the way in for the transformation to hold but it's quite difficult to do. Common issue with all versions of the mold.

>Nemesis is only 75

Kick ass

>>11501243

https://news.tfw2005.com/2025/07/24/transformers-armada-nemesis-prime-star-saber-official-stock-images-price-543043

Ha, called it >>11500994

Sonar with the painted on leg sliders

>>11501248
They look great. A shame I'll never own them.

so nemesis is gonna be a con exclusive that never gets a listing for the rest of us plebs? I really want that minicon sword

>>11501248
Why are they so fucking chunky

>>11501260

It'll be on Hasbro Pulse in limited quantities.

>>11500927
You wrote my post for me. This was supposed to be evil minicon team.
>$100?
I guess I dont need the star saber afterall

>>11501269
75, not 100.

>>11500973
Im so fucking mad at myself for not ordering this.

So
why is it the normal sword and not the evil version? listing got it wrong or hasbro goofed or want to con you with a redco down the line or he used the normal one in the show
>T.Havent watched armada since the early 2000s

>>11501195
>No verbal Saber
So it's a mute saber then?

White Starsaber works for me since the OG hasbro and takara ones have this short peg, making it loose at the hilt. They didn't fix this until later.

>>11501277

>>11501253
>>11501260
If it’s the PulseCon exclusive you’ll have plenty of time to get one. Dinoking, last year’s exclusive, is still available on Pulse

>>11501286
...maybe I should get a Dinoking

Best way to get Star Saber as yuuro?

>>11501292
wait and hope >>11501286
is right

>>11501263
>It'll be on Hasbro Pulse in limited quantities.
I wonder if it's going to be available on Hasbro Pulse Europe, otherwise I will just forget about it I guess.

>>11501286
Speaking of Dinoking, I was actually very surprised a while back when he was still in stock in couple of nip stores

>>11500973
You were bitching the hips were an add-on piece.

>>11500973
Predict how many QC issues it'll have. I bet at least 10

>>11501263>>11501262
>>11501286
Don't want Nemesis, I'm not paying 75 for 3 minicons. I'll only consider it goes to deeps clearance.

>>11500968
This happens to every copy of the set, without fail. Even the opaque ones like the Hasbro Dark Saber. It's an engineering problem, the pommel post is too short which allows it to easily lever and crack the port, and the walls of Jetter's thrusters are too thin which causes those to crack too. Later copies of the set were retooled with a longer pommel post which helps a bit, but not much. Mainly just keeps the blade from falling out WHEN the pommel cracks.
Funnily enough the only copy that doesn't have major issues is the Kabaya version because it was shot from completely different tools and the minor differences are enough to prevent breakage, but also it feels like a cheap knockoff. And that's the set these new ones are most suited to replace as the opaque white deco.

Apelinq's pretty discounted on BBTS
i I think I still won't bother, it's not a good toy and that's not a great improvement to it

Welp, got 4/6 Devastator parts and issues have finally cropped up:

-No ratchet on the arm, so it can't support the weight fully extended.
-Can't hold the giant gun since the peg hole is too loose.

>>11501342
>This happens to every copy of the set, without fail. Even the opaque ones like the Hasbro Dark Saber. It's an engineering problem, the pommel post is too short which allows it to easily lever and crack the port
Not sure if we're talking about the same thing but on mine the problem was the "U" clear plastic part that connects the hilt to Sonar, pic related. Seems like it was pinned barely off center in such a way that in flexed when transforming and when leaving it at the back of the robot mode. I have the Energon Saber too and on that one there's enough space for it to move around easily and no pressure in any position, so it's still in one piece.

>>11501352
The bonecrusher arm on my devastator seems to hold up fine.

>>11501352
Only have the first two but I know about those for a while from people who already own them. So yeah, seems like a common problem.

>>11500973
there's nothing impressive about this fucking thing

>>11501371
>Well, fuck you too!

>>11501234
the legs wont put together though
im puttin in as much pressure as i can and the legs are always close to splitting apart again

>>11501426
Is this our first picture actually showing Predaking's size?

>missed Seaspray because fuck people that work 9-5s on weekdays
I wish neets and scalpers death.

>>11501474
I honestly think something went wrong with Seaspray on Walmart’s website because I checked at like 10:00 in the morning and he was already sold out by then. If it’s any consolation we know he’s going to come to mainline soon

>>11501478
he went up 5mins before the set hour

>>11501478
>>11501492
>Hasbro knows its a new mold, so they should have a lot more printed
>G1fags know they'll get a redeco with a more cartoon-accurate head, so some should know to hold off on buying it
>somehow, Seaspray is still sold out
The math doesn't add up god damn it.

>>11501492
And was gone immediately thereafter

>>11501371
would it have killed them to sculpt the tread wheels and junk on the inner side?

>>11501500
I think store exclusive's supply/stock is decided by the store, not Hasbro, so the small number of Seasprays is Wal-Mart's decision. I guarantee when he’s released in mainline Hasbro will make a lot more

>>11501506
I want the toy headsculpt. I dont give a rats ass about the G1 cartoon

>>11501502
>tread wheels and junk on the inner side
That wouldn't make any sense. The wheels would be floating if they can be seen from both sides.

>>11501516
er, the.. it should be the axles then, right?
Like I get that you can't actually make empty space in a tread area on most tankformers, but you can pretend by sculpting it in everywhere it's visible.

>>11500378
Chances this is the Takara and we're so back with takara doing separate paint touches again?

>>11500916
Man this actually looks good
It'll be gone in seconds and crash Pulse entirely when it drops right?
Last SDCC is STILL in stock I think because nobody wants it for some reason

>>11500973

Not a chance in hell the limb connectors are built in

>>11500973
That head is laughably bad.

>>11501371
Should've tried to reduce the leg kibble, wonder if they fixed the thigh color on the comicon model.

>>11501500
Only reason I pre-ordered was because I wasn't sure they'd do a g1 deco. Damn.

>>11501569
>I wasn't sure they'd do a g1 deco

>You're coping if you think this ISN'T using extra parts

No need to theorize anything, we've know how this thing works for months. The limb connectors are included on each robot but the whole waist/upper legs is a separate piece.

>>11501578
I couldn't even remember if it was different, but no big deal I can just cancel the pre-order.

>all these people complaining about not being able to preorder sea spray
what are you guys talking about, the best and only Sea Spray toy was HFTD

>>11501657
If you get a smaller Seaspray, you can put him on Sea Spray's vehicle mode.

>>11501924
aw hell, that's a real hair in the eye.

Got my Long Haul/Hook set in. As it turns out, the holes in Devastator's hands are way too big for his gun to fit. This display sample probably has the gun glued into place.

I found the Thundertron multipack at Ross today, and now I wish id picked up Roadpig when I had the chance.

>>11501927
If you give up one leg, you could use the weapon like a cane/crutch if need be

He's implying that it was confirmed that there's no Devastator boxset next year or the year after

>>11502020
I know it’s worthless to point out now but it’s always bothered me how they translated Diatlas's name. In the original Japanese it’s one word and the Dai at the front is just the kanji at the start for Diaclone in Japanese, meaning Dai Altas is incorrect

that's to scare everyone into buying the individual figures. Then they release the box set with extra stuff.

Anons being silly and adding this hoping people don't notice, like when that one anon kept posting "micropenis" instead of "micronus"

>>11502072
He holds it, but its far from ideal. Its a loose fit and the gun wags around when you move the arm / hand. Nothing a little piece of tape cant solve but still annoying. Also the handle peg on the gun is very short and yet the hole in the hand is so fucking shallow the handle still dosent go all the way in. Very strange. I’ll also add that the retractable 5mm pegs on the outside of the hands are an eyesore. Finally, the fingers are in a very ugly and awkward pose. The hands just plain suck

>>11502060
>Dai Altas is incorrect
You realize it would be Daiatlas not Diatlas, right?
We typically don't have a long I sound followed by another vowel in english.

They spelled the name different so it could be pronounced the same. This is the same thing when the Japanese leave the r off super, making it Supaa (2 syllables) because that's closer than Superu (3 syllables, and pronounced Soo-pay-roo)

>>11502125
I mean, we do.. all the time. but you're still right.

>>11502125
>We typically don't have a long I sound followed by another vowel in english.
Right. English typically doesn’t do that, like in diameter or diaphragm. Nope. Definitely not in diabetes or dialect. Totally not common. Doesn’t show up in diagnosis or dialog.

Same. He had no interaction with the air defense team. Hell, I'm not sure if the dark saber was even shown being composed of anything other than the same unicron cells Nemesis was.

Not worth 75 bucks 100% though. 55 or 60 is pushing it, but 75 is ridiculous.

>>11501454
Pretty disappointing, I was hoping he was 4 large deluxes and a commander, this is 4 scouts and a leader.

Razorclaw and his munchkin band.

TRANSFORMERS Age of The Primes Wreck 'n Doom Collection 2-Pack, 7.5-Inch Autobot Sandstorm and 5.5-Inch Slugslinger

this worth 80 bucks? I already have the better sandstorm. Will it be hard to get?

>>11502186
>this worth 80 bucks?
Probably not, I haven’t seen a single person anywhere talk about it so you should be good to wait

>>11502133
Yea
Do you know what those all have in common?
Greek origins that evolved to old french, that english ended up borrowing.
French does that all the time
But this isn't french we're talking about

They clearly were trying to make a large impression

Well well. If it isn't the Blowjob brothers...

Herr Fiend kitbash is coming along well. Just need some screws and that faux monocle and we're set.

>>11502186

The ship date on mine just jumped to Monday on Amazon, I'll post pics and give my thoughts on them once they're here.

>>11502022
Why buy Flame Toys when 3P or even Takara will make a transformable version?

>>11502203
My point was that the vast majority of English words that start with dia are pronounced with the a sound still in the word, so Diatlas would still be pronounced the same way, especially since Diatlas's name is taken from Diaclone which is spelled and pronounced identically to the other words I listed.

>>11502060
>Dai at the front is just the kanji at the start for Diaclone in Japanese
That's katakana not kanji, why are u nitpicking this when you can't even tell Japanese character sets apart? Very homosexual karen behaviour.

>>11502225
Sorry, anon, I sometimes mix up the two names. My point still stands, Diatlas is how it should be spelled because of the shared KATAKANA between it and Diaclone

>>11502179
>figures can be different scales
Astute observation, anon.

>>11502213
thanks, that's why I was wondering. I had like 5 orders move from August to Monday

>>11502050
state of Headstrongs proportions

>>11502283

Yeah, it's fucking wild how much stuff seems to be coming in early. Nothing I can't afford thankfully, though I think I probably would have held off on my current haul if I'd known. Such are the pitfalls of collecting though.

>>11502211
that's a sweet figure, but can it transform?

Got my Legacy Silverbolt +DNA kit shipped finally, I'm enjoying him pretty well so far!
Though, the wing extenders make the hollow bits more noticable lol. Any good/recommended gap fillers for that, out there?

Finally got the chance to do God Ginrai after having God Bomber sitting under my desk for a month

What a beast


I feel the whole MP size thing going to be a detriment to the MPG line if they going to continue with gettai

Super Ginrai already is very heavy by itself. With Bomber on, he is a brick. The rachet joints barely holding on to the additional weight. It is not that the individual part of a joint is breaking up, it is more like the plastics as a whole are being bent.
The legs are extremely heavy with the feet being weight of a small deluxe. They can probably lighten up a bit by simplifying the design, but people will complain about that too. It also does not help that the hip has some really big dead space between each click. You will have to do some calculations with the clicks and sliding the legs will do once they are flat on a surface.

I am also finding it strange the arms/legs armors are all tabs/clips. There is no locking system. And the shoulder pads just flop around like TT gave up by the time they got to the shoulder.

Overall, great display piece. Not that great as a toy. If you are going to play with this, I say put some sticky tacks so pieces wouldn't just fly off when you are not careful.

A lot of problem with this is just how big it is (the old LG has the same problem). Maybe they can make a legend scale Ginrai> large Voy size Super and Leader God Ginrai?

>Special edition box can't hold the extra parts box along with Bomber and super Ginrai box

What were they thinking?

>>11502484
Find out in about 12 hours

>>11502522
damn, that's 2am for me :/

>>11502062
In the streams the two hasbro fags pretty much said there's no box sets planned. Just get the inevitable 3p upgrades.

>>11502552
This is getting expensive.
At this point, I should just build my own Devastator out of real construction vehicles.

>>11502557
Don't forget the hookers.

Destroyer (TR Quake) does.

For Herr Fiend, I tried making something functional using Knockout and Dead End, but seperately, neither could accomidate their hoods being moved around and still work. After spending a few nights banging my head against the wall trying to make parts work together, I said "screw it" and went for the robot form exclusively. It doesn't bother me as much because Zeemon from Gobots also can't transform. They both can be a hybrid of bot and car: The All-New 2026 Mazda Gerwalk.

Here's Herr trying his darnedest to work with what he's got, as well as a couple pics of the assembly (still need to drive pins and screws to secure the back.)

>>11502050
If you had to choose a sixth animal to join the Predacons (maybe turn into Predaking’s gun or shield) what would it be?

I know it’s not going to happen, but it’d be really cool if we got a new Ramjet from the Legacy Armada Starscream mold because I’m a sucker for any of Unicron's Heralds

>>11502729
>Lion, Cow, Rhino, Tiger, Bird
Bear

>>11502738
there's a third party legends one iirc

>>11502729
man, the most dangerous animal

>>11502738
I am bit surprised they've done only Thundercracker from Armada Screamer and even then he was exclusive

>>11502760
>Man-Man, transforms from evil man to man and back again!

>>11502738
This is fucking badass. Reminds me of the Ghost Starscream from Energon in a way
Would not mind more fucked up Transformers

>>11502729
Snake

>>11502801
That would be cool.
Would he turn into a gun for Predaking or another sword?

>>11502806
both
gunsword

I don't know what to do with MTME Perceptor. He's the most generic brick man in robot mode and the microscope mode isn't very interesting either. At least with the TR version you can use it as a small Titanmaster base.

>>11502738
I say 2027, next year we will get Unicron Soldier, Sideways and Razorclaw so maybe it's herald tease

>>11502866
Hopefully they do Transmetals soon so we can get Shokaract and Cataclysm as well

>>11502838
I hate that I had to buy this figure twice just to get Ramhorn.

>>11502882
As a Blaster Enjoyer it'd be the only reason for me to get him and Steeljaw.

>>11502886
>>11502882
It sucks they didn't include the other speaker with him

>>11502890
It’ll come with Nightstalker instead

>>11502897
...whom they'll pack in with another Perceptor

>>11502897
Yeah makes sense. But when will that ever be?
I’m still waiting on Glit and the Cobalt Sentries.

>>11502916
Yeah but this time he’ll be based on the unused toy deco with the head sculpt from Gen Selects Magnificus

>>11502178
>you are the fucker who talked me out of backing that thing and you should just shut the fuck up
I saved you money, you ungrateful piece of scrap.

>>11502921
Yeah, the Colbalt Sentries are especially weird when you consider that the current Laserbeak and Ravage are already gang molded so making Garboil and Howlback should be pretty simple.
>I’m still waiting on Glit
I mean, technically…

>>11502729
Crocodile maybe?

>>11502955
>>11502956
These aren't Seacons

>>11502954
Yeah, that’s why I’m surprised they canceled core class when so many wanted cassette bits are needed.

>>11502729
monke

>>11502970
They probably thought they could get away with multipacks and then hasbro basically shut that down as well after the Micromaster multipacks didn’t do well enough. I’m also remembering that they could have done Stripes and Sundor as a two pack as well

>>11502936
Nope, you're buying the same toy over and over, forever!

>>11502977
There's a lot they could've done, but Hasbro hates us

>>11502729
I like Cang Toys route of making the 6th member a Gorilla, they have him form the lower torso/waist kinda like Long Haul.

Magmatron is so good.

My Commander Hook and Longhaul arrived from Amazon, now I just need Scavenger to show up early somewhere, or for it to be Fall already.

Devastator is pretty solid and my copy's hands fit the big gun just fine, Bonecrusher's combined mode shoulder joint could be a bit tighter but Devastator can hold his arm up just fine pointing the gun. I do think he would have a hard time lifting any of the studio series dinobots above his head if anyone wanted to recreate that pose.

>>11503018
I’m really excited for Galvatron and/or Gigatron after how good he was

>>11503038
Mixmaster is out already?

>>11503048
in leaf land

>>11503048
I found one in Walmart here in Canada randomly a couple weeks ago

>>11503038
I have so many qualms with this set I have no idea why Im collecting it
>>11503051
Perplexing how you guys got him like 6 fucking months early

>>11503061
I'm not sure how you would engineer it, but a bit of forward backward movement for Devastator's feet would have made balancing him a bit easier, he's stable in straight leg poses, but if you try to bend his knees too much he does seem like he would fall backwards due to the backpack.

Still this is the first time I've had an opportunity to get a big Hasbro G1 Devastator and this one is not obnoxiously huge compared to every other figure like the Combiner Wars version is. I also really like this Devastator's shade of green. This set also has pretty nice individual robot modes if I don't want to display them as Devastator all the time.

>>11502954
>Howlback
I mean, we technically got her, too. You just had to buy that horrible G.I. Joe crossover with arguably the worst modern Sound wave to date to get her.

>designers say the star saber minicons are just shy of a deluxe class
>designers don't think to include a fourth minicon to tip over into deluxe class

also deluxe armada preceptor when

>>11503185
That’s the Masterpiece mold, not the Earthrise one
>>11503204
>deluxe armada preceptor when
Honestly I could see them being the next Deluxe Armada character that gets made, so maybe 2027, if we’re lucky

>>11503204
Just for Run-Over

>>11503226
even shockwave would be jealous of that monoboob

Wish somebody would axe him

bruh

How do you guys feel about the Nemesis and Star Saber 2-pack?
I don’t collect mainline often, and I don’t have a Legacy Armada Prime, so I was wondering why I’ve seen some people scorn its price tag.

>>11503308

Obvious, in retrospect.

Will there be a comic, I wonder.

>>11503308
>not galaxy sort

>>11503308
Everybody gets a turn with the Masters of the Universe.
>>11503310
It should be the Vorpal Saber team. I probably won't have either.

>"Oh boy, the G1 box art slaps, I-"
>Look closer at Perceptor's art
>Elbow isn't even connected to anything
Giving me vibes of AI art before it got good, goddamn.

>>11503308
Aw man, for a second I thought they were making new Pretenders.

>>11503308
That fusion cannon is sick as hell

>>11503310
It just seems a bit expensive for what they are calling a Voyager class and three Minicons. It doesn’t help that the Star Saber barely has anything to do with Nemesis when he is known for having his own version

>>11503308
They're up for preorder on target right now.

>>11503351

So He Man is obviously Optimus, who's Starscream?

yeah, i'm still a little disappointed by aspects of the beast modes, but.. overall what a specimen. I didn't even hesitate to get the upgrade kit

>>11503185
so jealous of this but not willing to buy that set.. I wish someone just hated ravage for some reason and wanted to sell it to me.
>>11503289

https://archive.palanq.win/toy/search/deleted/deleted/

>>11503310
Outrageously expensive thanks to hasbro's inflexible size class pricing. In no world is a mid tier voyager class figure with minicons more expensive than supreme class figures with the same damn minicons from 15 years ago.

is there a stream?

>>11503455
In like 4 more hours

>>11503417
Agreed. They’re actually pricing me out which I never thought was possible.

>>11503308

wait his tail is made of energhy? how the shit does that work.. I like that leg transformation at least.

>>11504064
the new one has sexier curves in jet mode

>>11504080
SS Grimlock came out like 6 or 7 years ago

>>11504074
Huh.. it looks.. okay.. why is everything so rainbowy? ehhh the leg transformation still looks like shit, but at least the tail seems fine now. No idea if there's a neck, that is a cheater angle.

>>11504067
>>11504074
This is their apology for taking so long with the bayverse dinobots eh?

>>11504086

>>11504067
Why the fuck is Quentin Tarantino there

where's AOTP swindle

>>11504088
>why is everything so rainbowy?
Seems to just the angle the camera is sitting to the projection, the straight on shots are clear >>11503997

>>11504058
The torso isn't built like a fridge, the limbs are different and the nosecone actually has landing gear. The ER seeker is dead.

Couple blurry pictures of the big boy

Now with tongue!

>>11504002
Finally a version of this toy a child can play with without the shell parts being thrown across the room with every movement

>>11503992
>>11503993
Thisis the worst thing I've ever seen. It's barely even a repaint. Just a new head.

>>11504045
I wonder if Starscream will be just a redeco, doesn't seem like it's compatible with the coronation gear.

>>11504108
Are you new to Transformers or is this a strange joke

>>11504011
Battle master

>>11504045
Confirmed waist swivel btw

>>11504074
Also confirmed all Dinobots are coming. SS Titan class locked down for four years?

>>11504120
the targetmaster partner is just a simple two hinge one, no ball joints to be seen. that's a targetmaster.

>>11504045

>>11504045
>10 more years for Hasbro to trickle out all the seekers

I just can't do it again boys

>>11504081
He'd better come with both the Cosmotector AND Astro Blaster, to justify the price. Or really anything that makes him more than just a Leader.

>>11504124
At least the siege seeker still has merit unlike the earthrise one and fills a niche as a tetra jet. That is unless they make a completely upgraded origins one.

>>11504127
at this point hasbro should just make a subline of studio series called studio series seeker selection and exclusively fill it with seeker redecos/retools

>>11504045
Nah, I'm good.

I did the song dance of hunting down each of the Seekers once with the Classics mold over 20 years ago. I did it again a second time with the Earthrise mold since I actually managed to get preorders in for both of the dumb two-packs + Thrust while avoiding scalper prices. I'm not doing it again a third time, even if this mold ends up being the second coming of Christ.

I will however buy a Sunstorm repaint if they make one.

>>11504130
unlike the ER figure the siege figure is actually good

>>11504133
Why did you do it once with the Classics mold and repeated with the upscaled Classics mold? Dummy.

>>11504045
I only have the cone heads with the ER mold so this won't be a pain to get all the seekers from this new one.

>>11504137
Size Creep is a motherfucker when every other major Decepticon is at least a Voyager in size while Starscream and the rest of the seekers are stuck at the size of a mid-2000s Deluxe.

>>11503982
Gosh darn, heck yea, partner.

>>11504136
It's absurd how good the Siege figure is. The balance and articulation was perfect

>>11504137
Not him, but I did it for the better scale.

>>11503351
Fuck bumble dick, should have been Brawn.

Blast-Off has the animation error head on purpose

He's beautiful

>>11504154
It took longer to complete this trio then the fucking Monsterbots

NO LOVE FOR MADE UP SPORTS CARS HUH?

>>11504154
>no folding hands
>no wrist swivel
>still hollow arms

doesn't bother me personally but someone's about to sperg out over this

>>11504154
https://youtu.be/dwnZtuEFJaU?si=uQS-g2y5BatN8Fd5

Cobra head is blast effect compatible

>>11504058
He's got hip rotation, landing gear, and a far less boxy chest. Definitely a new mold.
Now the big question: will they finally just give us fucking Sunstorm already!?

>>11504137
Deluxe is way too small for seekers

>>11504161
There he is, THAT'S the retard cattle rustling henchman I love.

>>11504161
anyone want to place bets on how long it'll take before someone animates the warrior without a weapon scene in stop motion once this guy is in-hand?

>>11504145
I have a lot of Transformers that can stand on one leg but there's very few that can get their knee that high

>>11504081
Comettor & Sparkplug included I hope

>>11504137
The Earthrise figure is not an upscaled Classics mold, you dumb fuck.

Confirmed like 5+ modes he apparently does a lot
The T-cog plugs in and is actually his eye

>>11504132
It's not only that. They drag their ass on everything. By the time they get around to finishing a group they're starting all over again with a new version. how long did it take them to give us some of the guys. we were still waiting for Sunstorm. I JUST got the Elite Seeker redecor this week.
Can't do it again. I'm out.

>>11503997
Dammit, this was the one I was looking forward towards and it’s not doing it for me. I’d need way better pictures to sell me on it.
>>11504045
Oh shit
>>11504074
…so the Leader wasn’t good enough for them, I guess?
>>11504081
God, please let it be true.
>>11504173
…okay, maybe I’ll wait to see the other modes.

>>11504173
So he's basically a TF1 toy

5mm tusks
And he does the tonfas and stuff too

So, when are these guys actually supposed to go up for preorder, anyway?

>>11504154
Not a retool, but they recycled Mirages transformation, that spoiler should be on his back not his arms.

>>11504186
why is she flat?

>>11504173
Shockwave's great great grandfather.

Windcharger comes with a magnetic effect part

>>11504191
Blackarachnia is the one with tits

>That head on TLK Barricade
I know it's more movie accurate but I just prefer the old toy's head more.

>>11504196
Oh, right

Nose landing gear

>>11504182
It's Kingdom Rhinox all over again

>>11504202
Where are you getting these images from?

>>11504204
Probably the recap stream.

>>11504202
I've lost gallons to this figure already

someone call Jobby I think he needs to review a mainline figure again

>Optimus Primal
>Leo Prime
>Big Convoy
These guys don't line up

Big Chocolate

Confirmed ridable by the Optimus mold

>>11504208
Ball joint at the neck

>>11504173

Well. Thats a thing.

>>11504211
15 inches tall and, like HasLab Omega Prime, has metal pins in his weapon for strength

>>11504202
Confirmed different faces for Starscream and Skywarp

Post Razorclaw

>>11504211
Please tell me that mace comes off of his right hand. That's one of the big things that irked me about the previous version of him.

>>11504199
I prefer that one's everything else
The new one is hideous

Wait, they can use the name "Convoy" now?

>>11504104
no shots of it from the side eh.. so we can get a look at the neck and the digi legs
>>11504161
seriously though, the scorpion head DOES slide down, right?

>>11504211
>That floating eye
You can really see how the transformation for the face works here

>>11504182
i wanna see the cannon..
>>11504203
prolly same designer..

>>11504161

Perhaps its finally time to retire my old toy...

And I'm sorry Hasbro, but I'm fine with the Earthrise Seekers. Unless its Sunstorm.

So does this mean new Windblade-type?

>>11504230
Yes

>>11504209
who the fuck approved the trunk juints.. they don't work in any capacity.

>>11504225
>seriously though, the scorpion head DOES slide down, right?
Doesn't look it. Then again, there's still the possibility he's mistransformed, even though this is just a render - Grimlock's robot mode toe spikes in >>11504211 is still shown folded in, after all.

>>11503996
>>11503997
Hope Hasbro told us this guy is a Weaponizer and you can choose how you transform him. He is a bucket full of surprises, but that stock transformation is basically another Testament from Needless, or for those familiar with Unicron Trilogy, a Scrapmetal drone.

>>11504189
No, his legs transform completely different
Also his spoiler disappears in robot mode entirely in all media, it's only on the toy.

>>11504235
He has 5 modes

>>11504238
KWAB

>>11504238
>We have Sixshot at home

>>11504081
To fit the Commander price point might be related to the engineering. Otherwise, MAKE IT A TWO-PACK WITH OVERLOAD!

>>11504230
Please everyone convince them to make a hearse themed Transformer already.

>>11504240
If you buy to of them, you have 10 modes.

>>11504081

Oh fuck yes.

Overload when?

>>11504230
I'm hearing that it's two autobots and two decepticons?

>>11504244
But I don't want a hearse. That reminds me of my grandfather's funeral.

>>11504244
They did that years ago, bro.

>>11504244

>>11504211
But the Leader release can do the same. Should have been reclassed into Commander when the Leader Class was re-released. At least the paint techniques of the Leader release will be retained.

>>11504252

This guy should have been the hearse.

>>11504238
He has no grace

>>11504154
Now repaint/remold it into Jetstorm, he was my guy as a kid.

>POV: You ask Evan to design a TF1 Airachnid

>>11504248
Bring back Multiforce and Duocons. Maybe even perform a crosswise combination where both pairs can be a top half and bottom half while still be cross-compatible.

>>11504259

Hey, I'll take this over her lousy Prime toys.

>>11504259
I don't understand what this means.

>>11504230
I thought it’s “give a pre-existing character a new alt mode.”

>>11504230
>>11504265
going to be a jet optimus prime

>>11504211
So the whole “slavish accuracy to scale” thing was bullshit from the start, huh.

>>11504267
But if Optimus Prime is a jet already, what does he combine with?

>>11504264
In the livestream, Evan joked about people texting him about making a TF1 Airachnid and he’d just respond with this image

>>11504045
Time to finally buy all mainline seekers, that looks incredible. The earthrise mold always looked like trash to me, about fucking time they forgot about it.

>>11504265
>>11504267
I can see the votes now...
>Starscream
>Aerial alt mode type
>Jet

>>11504269

SS didn't have Titans back then, they had no choice.

>>11504276
>Converts from Jet to Jet in 19 steps!

>>11504256
... He is

Do you not know what a hearse is? It's literally just a black ambulance

>>11504282
converts from jet to helicopter to cargo plane and back

>inb4 'should have been sandstorm'

>>11504182
>>11504209
I actually really like how Big Convoy looks, I don’t mind the bit of robot hanging out
>>11504271
A truck, duh

>>11504284

I mean instead of a Red Alert redeco. Something more like the Ecto 1.

>>11504284
no its a black limo

Want a blue Springer from G1 Dropkick and a new Jet/Car Triple Changer for G1 Shatter

>>11504276
You either get that or Carscream

>>11504290
... Limos ARE black

>>11504297
not always

>>11504298
>>11504297
someone post tux from gobots (a decidedly white limo)

>>11504301
there's also a black Tux in Revenge of Khronos instead of a white one

>>11504302
but you have to specify it's a black tux, by default tux is a white limo

>>11504202
>Studio Series Starscream is just an old mold with new hands
>Thundercracker gets an entirely new mold.

How many times am I expected to re-buy the Seekers!? So Starscream's getting this new mold too right?

>>11503982

God, he looks fucking awesome and ready to kick some keisters. Quickstrike was the first Transformer I ever owned, so I'm particularly excited for this one.

>>11504257
this bot has shockwave's face

So, when do all of these actually go up for order? Next week?
>>11504066
>where does the rest of him go?
It becomes his legs, with a bit of mandatory partsforming kibble that slaps onto his back - same as the original use of the mold, Trashmaster. The only thing that's different about this Animated Wreck-Gar is the head - they didn't even bother to repaint him.

>>11504307

I already have three sets of those guys. I don't need another.

>>11504306
yes but the black tux in that anime is a hearse

>>11504202
NEW SEEKERS LETS GO

>>11504311
This guy any good? Considering getting him for awhile.

>>11504311
To be fair, this does look decently like animated wreck gar. It fucking sucks that there's no remolding or repainting done, but it is close enough that if hasbro wanted to they could probably have gotten a convincing retool for the vehicle mode.

>>11503992
>>11503993
>I am Wreck-Gar! I am good for all only two things!
>Shelfwarming, and not being funny!

>>11504311
Except his entire color scheme is different.

Well if they make Starscream with the new mold (almost undoubtedly) I guess I can keep SS86 in his coronation gear permanently. OR spray paint him gray and keep him in a perpetual death pose.

>>11504333
What if the new 86 Screamer is dead colors?

>>11504329
No, his color scheme is exactly the same - red, orange, silver/grey and blackish-grey. What's changed is his color LAYOUT.

>>11504334
Two things are likely:
Dead Screamer first, then normal Screamer
Or the inverse.
But if the other SS86 corpsebots are anything to go by, they'll release new mold Starscream alive first.

>>11504324
>this does look decently like animated wreck gar
It's a vague resemblance at best, Wreck Gar had a fairly different transformation scheme.
Rescue Bots Salvage would have been a better fit.

>>11504323
>This guy any good?
He's fun, especially if you have some other Junkions/Weaponizers/Fossilizers to mix him up with.
I prefer to fanmode him as an angry Junkasaurus instead of using his actual robot mode, though. Incidentally, you'll be able to do the exact same thing with Wreck-Gar, since there's no new parts or transformation scheme.

>>11504345

Jurassic Park is frightening in the dark...

>New sets of Seekers
Well, let's hope it's easy to get the main 6 guys this time around. I guess that also means the Soundwave is gonna be a new mold as well.

>>11504234
it has never occurred to me before but... do they.. rig up the renders with joints and 'bones' so they can transform them via mouse?

>>11504336
Trashmaster doesn't have any orange and Wreck-Gar doesn't have any brown. Their greys are different too. Still, the comment of "they didn't even repaint him" is flat out wrong. He has a different deco and colors.

>>11504325
hey he was funny
>>11504329
why aren't the wheels visible on the legs here the way they are here >>11504311

>>11504355
in solidworks you can build assemblies that let you simulate movements so I assume that's what they do

>>11504339

Not necessarily. We're still fucking waiting on The Movie Prowl.

>>11504361
rad. i need to get my hams on that.

>>11504359
Look closer

>>11504329
Just a head swap and recolor. Boring. Let's keep the old 2008 figure and display him with Earthspark Cosmos.

>>11504366
its commercial grade software so it's pretty expensive but you can pirate it in some places. There's also a program called Plasticity that I've been wanting to play with that's pretty cheap and supposed to be easy to get into, and it can do assemblies too.

I've not used Palsticity but I did teach myself Solidworks after seeing them use it in a video.

>>11504362
Surely it's in production for 2026, right...?

>>11504202
>Waist swivel
>Wrist swivels
>Landing gear
>Actually accurate legs and thrusters
>Entire cockpit actually makes up the chest, nosecone actually folds in
It's not perfect but holy fuck it's so much better, I better not ever see them use that shitrise mold again

>>11504209
>>11504182
Now we wait for Nemesis Prime, Ultra Mammoth, and Blue Big Convoy

>>11504060
Nothing that a good ol repro label can fix.

>>11504202
God damnit it's so clean. Those motherfuckers.

>>11503979
combaticons look good. I didn't really listen to the stream, why is Brawl a voyager again?
>>11503982
Fucking finally, he never got shit. Is it just Depth Charge and Rampage we need for the core cast now?
>>11503992
This actually sucks. I don't get why they're doing a new junkion too, don't these things shelfwarm?
>>11503995
Quintus looks neat, I think some of my issues with him currently are issues I have with Micronus's images too, but his design is a lot better. I like how weird he looks.
>>11503996
This is everything I asked for and more, he's so fucking alien and cool, I love him.

>>11504385
>why is Brawl a voyager again?
He's just a beefier boy and comes with a bunch of guns

>>11504371
well I wasn't able to figure out Blender so it's probably beyond me.
I just wish harder than hard that I could just use VR controllers for it (without using a headset because fuck that for several reasons). I need the control of my hands. IDEALLY there'd be some kind of glove interface.

>>11504385
>>11504389
Speculation going on is that Brawl and Swindle will form the whole feet instead of just plugging into a frame so they'll need stronger ratchets like Scrapper and Mixmaster.
There's an asymetric screw on Brawl that might be the ankle tilt.

>>11503992
Abysmal dogshit.

>>11504377
you know, I might find this new mold more palatable in a different color
>>11504385
in the sense of having at least one version of everyone in the core cast, yes. but it'd be pretty silly to have transmetal versions of transmetal-only guys, and then feel like "yay, we got everyone"
also dinobot II is his own person, so

>>11502441
Hmm not quite

>>11504413
I'll take 10!

>>11504413
holy SHIT. I... really kinda want this.

>>11504413
looks good but I want ML Jetfire and they'd have to go through both Harmony Gold and Bandai to do it

>>11504415
That’ll be $3000 thanks

>>11503996
Definite Shockwave retool incoming

>>11504415
>>11504416
I don't think you want it or the others THIS badly...

>>11504329
Really funny seeing all the retards on twitter not realizing the mold was a pretool for Wreck-gar all along

>>11504420
I doubt that

>>11504413
What even is it?

>>11504422
Sentinel is very high quality though

>>11504424
How? It has very little in common with Wreck-Gar. Totally different transformation scheme, different overall aesthetics, different proportions, that grabber-claw and those wrist guns that don't exist on Wreck-Gar, etc. If anything, there's only a passing resemblance, and only if you're looking at the alt mode. There's no reason ANYONE would have assumed Trashmaster was a pretool.

>>11504182
I thought sure they’d name him Slammoth Prime

>>11504433
It's literally a G1 version of the character like EVERY SINGLE OTHER Animated Generations toy has been

>>11504314
Yeah, I'm done. Maybe Sunstorm if they do him

>>11504433
>There's no reason ANYONE would have assumed Trashmaster was a pretool.
To be fair, literally every single person in these threads said it was going to be Wreck-gar the second it was revealed

>>11504442

Oh, absolutely Sunstorm. He's the only Seeker left for me. Maaaybe Universe Ramjet.

>>11504438
Beast Wars Uprising is extremely niche

>>11504442
I’m on the fence, the only ER Seekers I have are Starscream and Cloudcover, so if they redo both of them, which I seriously doubt, I’d be sold

>>11504002
Despite the back shellforming, this looks aight. Good to have more JP rep now.
>>11504022
Oh man, I love that fucked up colt or whatever he has. He looks neat for a carformer.
>>11504025
Man, Windcharger has a lot of weird things about him. Side of the chest is hollow, inner feet are hollow, the way the legs bend. Dunno how to feel about this one
>>11504043
this dude fucks hard though
>>11504045
is this a new mold? If so I may actually bother getting the seekers finally
also the titan is lame

>>11504447
Hasbro offered up the name Slammoth first, for what became Victorion. It's reasonable to assume Big Convo would get a localized Prime name.

>>11504433
I knew they were gonna use it for Wreck Gar : )

>>11504362
Gee, what would Hasbro release first, that, or a redeco Seeker for one of the four most popular TF characters?

HMMMMMMMMM.

>>11504450
You'll get Starscream. Forget ever seeing Cloudcover again.

>>11504438
I was expecting either Big Prime or Mammoth Prime given Leo Prime's name. Really they should both be Primals if their names were translated correctly

>>11504433
>Totally different transformation scheme
Has never mattered when they're remaking something
>different overall aesthetics, different proportions
See almost every single other Legacy Animated character
>that grabber-claw and those wrist guns that don't exist on Wreck-Gar,
Oh no the weapons are different
You might as well have said the head wasn't the same

>>11504453
Zero of the components would be beast-like. It was mammoth like a measure of size, not an animal. Leo Prime has a normal approximation of Lio Convoy instead of making a new one like Junglion so I don't think they would go for a far off name anyway.

>>11504458
Knowing my luck they’ll do Blackout and the Jungle Camo Starscream with the new mold so that the G2 Seekers don’t match each other

Slammoth was one of those fake options they include in polls so people vote for what the designers want instead. I don't know why you bring that up again.

>>11504450
Like a snapperhead, I got pretty much all the guys in the Seige and Earthrise molds (even SG Stacsream and Senator Shocky). Maybe if this mold gets good reviews I might get one or two but I just don't have the endurance anymore

>>11504433
I know this isn't as obvious as that Megatron that turned into a tank and a jet but come on

>>11504465
that sounds like a Hasbro move

>>11504422
KEK. nope.
enjoy your shitty sales, guys.

>>11504453
that's retarded. why would he be called slammoth prime instead of mammoth prime

>>11504202
You know what I just realized? Thundercracker doesn’t have a 5 mm post on his back in this mold, meaning the SS86 Coronation garb is 100% not going to work with this mold

>SS86 Wheeljack and Sunstreaker will also be new molds and the 5 pack versions were just a scam to get people to buy the molds one last time
KEK

>>11504460
it doesnt seem like primal has anything to do with beastforming, since the guy in beast wars was named that BEFORE getting a beast mode

>>11504370
>>11504329
Really could've used more parts.

Got Mav's codexa kit. I really like it.

>>11504479
did they confirm that?

>>11504476
Anon, it isn't the same toy
It isn't even the same company
Please consult your optometrist

>>11504482
but then what would their thirdparty cronies get kickbacks for?

My wallet is feeling suicidal right now

>>11504480
Exactly, none of them have the Matrix (Energon Matrixes are different) so they should all be Primals. I’m not sure what Fire Convoy would be though, he’s in a bit of a gray area. I assume Primal, given he also has an Energon Matrix and is from the future, but it feels weird calling a fire truck a Primal

>>11504202
It's about time. Earthrise was an awful mold. Didn't buy a single iteration of it.

>>11504494
nnno, Convoys are Convoys. They had high-ranking positions in-lore. Optimus Primal was just a blue-collar guy.

>>11504493
you're likin these eh?
don't worry, prices will come down. they have to.
>>11504494
gotta be other variations we can use..

>>11504308
I feel you. He was my pocket buddy for a few months along with Bantor.

>>11504497
I went halfsies on the ER set with a friend who only wanted Skywarp, I only wanted Thundercracker

but I swear that Thundercracker is looking increasingly teal colored...

>>11504500
Blue collar in America, he's considered a supreme commander in jp

>>11504527
>face
disgusting

>>11504500
Actually, all of them were pretty much at the same rank, being the captain of exploration vessels. Optimus has the Axalon, Lio the Yukikaze, and Big the Gung Ho, while they all report to the Great Convoys (I know technically BW2 and Neo take place later, but the intention was clearly to make them the same future setting that the BW crew comes from). Also by that logic, wouldn’t Optimus Primal also be the same rank since he’s also a Convoy in Japan, including having his own Energon Matrix

>>11504308
i'm seeing.. slight issues.. Iunno i'm sure it'll be fine.
this will be the first true lateral move from the one I already have

>>11504529
I don't think Primal had an Energon Matrix

even if he did, the fact he lost his original body and was revived through a blank protoform would mean he'd have lost it, wouldn't it?

>>11504528
blame Marvel

>>11504537
While I don’t know if he lost it after being reborn, he had one. It’s the circular thing in the middle of his chest, as shown in the BW2 movie

we've seen onslaught, vortex, and the stunticons. Is Megatronia possible?

>>11504559
That’s what I’m guessing. They’ll probably retool Hot Spot's frame to have different slots for the members of the Torchbearers and 4 Guards, who will be retooled from other combiner members

>>11504559
They would probably do Victorion before Megatronia

Is it our time?

>>11504537
what exactly is an energon matrix.. is it still a physical object?
and remember in beast wars they kinda just said the matrix is prime's spark-holder, so..

>>11504574
>remember in beast wars they kinda just said the matrix is prime's spark-holder

That was the result of Beast War's writers not understanding what the Matrix actually was.

>>11504574
Essentially, Energon Matrixes are mini versions of the original Matrix of Leadership gifted to Maximal warriors deemed worthy of one by Vector Sigma. They’re mostly used to give the user a power boost and some additional abilities, like combination and access to Vector Sigma's guidance, kind of like what Rodimus does in The Five Faces of Darkness or what Prime does in The Rebirth

>>11504537
I thought he didn't have it until after he died in BM and was revived. His chamber was empty in BW, when he temporarily took Prime's Spark into himself in Season 3 and became Optimal Optimus, so he definitely didn't have one then.

>>11504413
Funny, this is the best we're ever going to get of the Legioss Mech. The last time I can remember anyone attempting a Legioss toy was Evolution Toy and it was a DX Chogokin priced toy with none of the qualities of said DX Chogokin. It was a really shit toy.

>>11504479
Oh yeah? Because how the fuck are we ever getting our Earth Mode Hound otherwise when he was CANCELLED for SS86!?

>>11504599
86 Anniversary Deluxe Hound next year

Whelp

Devilish

>no dry brushing
Why do they always regress?

>>11504622
>dry brushing on a render

>>11504617
its miles better than earthrise. also, 86 windcharger was the most important thing. The 1984 autobot cast is finally going to be complete with the modern post siege designs.

>>11501425
Fuck. I really need to hang out here 24/7.

>>11504579
Huh okay.. so yeah
>>11504595
yeah I kinda got that impression too actually. but that doesn't make sense with any of the times we've seen him using it, because that was always in his first body.

>>11504622
all I want is to see the-

no wait I can see. yeah there's no heel, there's just a calf bulge pretending to be a heel. nevermind, this is worthless.

>>11504622
I'm pretty sure there were like two third party options that did exactly what this thing is doing at one point.
It just feels kinda redundant.

>>11504650
I'll need to see more pictures before I can really decide.. the spiked ball on the hand is hilariously small, couldn't they have hidden that inside the neck or something? the tail? just like split in half...

Is there a chart of the ER/Siege Seekers? It's very confusing as to who got what repaint. I know the Rainmakers are only Siege.

I'm trying to figure out what Seekers haven't been done yet that we might get. Sunstorm and Acid Storm didn't get made right? And Action Master Thundercracker seems like another one left out. I've made my point that I want a G2 one earlier in the thread and they seem to be running out of repaints so SURELY he'll get his shot eventually, right?

>>11503982
HERE COMES POISON!

>>11502738
There is a bootleg legends size one from mechanical skull studio

>>11503982
literally the only show character I ever had

I'm buying this because I regret missing out on his og toy so bad, and transarts fucked off and rage quit before they made one Even if the new mold is flawed.

>>11504672
not a bootleg if theres no original mold

>>11504677
I know I just didn't want you know who to shitpost idk I'm tired

>>11504677
Tape leg?

>>11504676
shit, transarts fucked off? that's.. not good.
I feel happy for the guys making the tigerhawk upgrade kit, they get to reuse their mold and sell that shit to people again for like 25 bucks

It’s weird that they left out the bird mask on this since apparently the figure is designed to support one given the slots on its head and behind the tail feathers

>>11504697
is it? because the upgrade kit replaces the entire head hinge door (the thing that lets you open the arm out further) with a new one that has a slot in it for the bird mask (which itself is pretty pisspoorly articulated but eh whatever I don't care)

>>11504700
Yeah, the slot on the tiger's forehead has been theorized as to where the bird mask would go. I don’t have a physical copy on me to show the slot behind the tail feathers though

>>11504676
Why do I always think that Razorclaw is the same Tigerhawk after his second death against the Nemesis's cannon, bent on revenge against all of Cybertron, Maximal or otherwise, for never caring about his existence?

>>11504711
Makes about as much sense as Razorclaw's actual backstory

Please tell me this has silver paint.
