gotta say though it's one more reason we need to see a retail reformation. This format doesn't work anymore. everyone on the internet wants to all shop together at the same places, so that place might as well just be the factory. or a series of dedicated warehouses. but stores are just so pointless, even if shopping is kind of fun.

Oh that wasn't me that updated it, but I feel effort deserves to be recognized you know?

I feel the original did the ant mode better for sure, it looks cooler, it's more like the show and it looks more like a ant in terms of proportions (new one is way too bulky)

Would you bother with a Antagony repaint of it?

mine's fine.. besides kingdom megatron shows us the reverse could be a lot worse!
on the other hand, most if not all of my old beast wars guys do have pretty loose joints now. I get that plastic gets less springy as the plasticizers outgas, but I would expect if anything they'd harden into untenable tightness.
some of my old legos don't fit together perfectly anymore either. and they're yellowing.

There's nothing fundamentally different about how Animated Prowl was redesigned for Legacy compared to the Prime characters. Animated's designs just lend themselves better to the G1 aesthetic than Prime since they're already somewhat blocky.

that's why Prime got rid of em, but they kept the overall awkward face shapes, and their mouth-animator was incompetent in the extreme, making upper lips just kind of.. schlup up into the face.

They should release Minicons as Core Class figures, bundled with either effect parts or an extra accessory which would be made for the bots they're partnered with. If SS86 Rumble goes well I can imagine Hasbro bringing back Minicons in the same way.

The fact that the handlebars are so prominent up there on Prowl's kibble would be very nicely explained by wanting them to be near the head on a Sideways reuse.

All I did was merely state Hasbro could easily reign in on the coincidence, whatever reason the handlebars are on the back having it retooled as Sideways would make them be real convenient to use as antlers. You have stated something as a fact without providing any evidence. Should've expected much from a salty UTfag.

Doesn't take a fucking rocket scientist to see that the modern toys are now smaller than they are before, budget constraints being a thing as well as the fact it's a redesign while taking cues from the animated show meant the toy isn't a 1:1 remake of the original. So the engineers have decided to move the handlebars to the back, because clearly that left the chest with a more cleaner profile resembling his cartoon design. I didn't say Hasbro stated something, I used common fucking sense and knew why things are the way they are,

The real problem is we're still in the G1 nostalgia phase. Even if the intentions of Legacy is to have characters outside G1 it still is a G1 centric line, with characters from other continuities appearing as Guest characters. Hasbro stated that they'll find a way to sell Minicons once they moved on from G1 and fully into Armada but we're not there yet. And it's annoying to know Hot Shot and Starscream are getting toy releases right before that future time period and will be a let down in comparison to the rest of the Armada cast who most likely will be made and retain everything (spring-loaded gimmicks removed and made manual of course) including Minicon ports accessible in robot mode.

But Hot Shot's missing gimmicks wouldn't have required any extra parts. Like the bumper blades, they're literally just part of the transformation, which Legacy still does. Even if it would have been missing paint, they just molded the feet wrong for no reason.

When Classics came out, I don't remember G1 only fans bitching that the toys weren't exact replicas of what was on television.

They were like "I hope they remake every one at some point, too" instead of going "AUUHHGH! THEY UNICRON TRILOGY'D THEM!" the way Armada and Animated fans seem to be.

Just enjoy a cool toy, you dingus. A complete recreation of Animated Prowl is going to have the same problems the current G1 MP figures have and moreso since Animated cheats so much to give the robot modes their impossible proportions.

If you can't see the difference in where the market is now then you're fucking retarded. When Classics released there was nothing else. Now the mainline has shifted focus to screen accuracy at the exclusion of all else, UNLESS you aren't Geewun (or Beast Wars) where you get needlessly redesigned. Why were the Prime toys ruined while every Geewun rando gets compared to its animation model sheet?

Yeah, they made that. And guess what? It was a pretty shitty toy that shelfwarmed hard. The mold was not that great to begin with, what with the arms not being able to go out to the side fully unless you rotate the arms, no waist joint and no ankle tilt so articulation is a bit limited. And then there's the fact it's a G1 Megatron with Armada Megs head and that's it. The treads on the back aren't facing forwards and if they do you get G1 Megatron configuration (I believe this is the point you were trying to make), the cannon is on the arm not on the back and the way it is repositioned in that pic there removes his right arm articulation. It just doesn't work at all and it being shelfwarmed hard and going on discounts at Target stores I've been at in 2016 that just shows that at least in my area no one wants the toy. So it's a toy released next to the more accurate G1 Megatron which everyone will go to instead and its appearance doesn't do anything to Armada fans, why even bother making a toy that appeals to no one then?

Hasbro knew that a head swap of Siege Ultra Magnus for Cybertron/Galaxy Force Optimus Prime isn't enough so they went the extra mile to make an entire new backpack, chest, shoulder parts just to make the resemblance more closer and it was a pretty underwhelming toy in the end. I don't want to settle for mediocrity, I want something good. If all they can do is a head retool then just don't bother doing it.

As someone who was starting university at the time, I remember the consensus in the online circles I dabbled in being that it was just cool to see the characters revisited.
In retrospect, where things maybe started going wrong was when TT came along with a "more accurate" deco - I feel like this introduced the idea of subsequent releases somehow rendering the toy you'd purchased 'redundant' and instigated G1 accuracy as some kind of end goal.
What I'm enjoying now, though, is an increasing number of people going back to those original Classics releases and appreciating them in their own right.
Semi-related; I love all of these Wheeljacks even if the WFC toy is great.

Exactly, don't know why UTfags demand more animation accurate toys. If they want that they have the old toys for that purpose. The newer toys are meant to be a cool and simple recreation using whatever they have on the table. Who gives a shit if the CW Armada Megs toy doesn't look like the animation model as long as it's a cool toy to play with then it's fine. I remember Thrillings 30 Starscream was also well liked despite the differences in design. UTfags are the true cancer of this hobby.

Gewunners are good people unlike UTfags. With the Universe line, G1 characters more often than not get UTshit toys repainted as G1 characters. But we bought them anyways with the knowledge that Hasbro would make more accurate updates later on in the future and sell the toys that were currently selling when that time comes so we waited patiently like the TRUE Transformer fan we are. UTfags are not like this, put them in the same situation and they'll cry it is not accurate to their holy grail that is reputably the worst the franchise has to offer..

Finally checked out that new Starscream and he is pretty nice. My main issue with him is that, for all of his modern articulation, he's missing wrist swivels - seems a bit off for a swordsman. I'd personally have lost the doors on the backs of the arms in favour of wrists (and, in doing so, given him a way to cheat a forward wrist tilt too) but he's otherwise very nice.
I'll be grabbing all of these new Legacy guys as their own thing. It's just fun to have my ongoing bunch of 'deluxe'-sized and fairly articulated Armada guys lined up as a little sub-collection, though.

Holy fuck. Folks, especially fellow Poland-anons, I just had the adventure of the year today. Feel free to call me pathetic over pulling such a scheme in order to get my hands on a figurine I wanted or "cool story bro" me, but the adrenaline rush I got is 100% real and that's all that matters. And this story feels so bonkers and surreal that I just have to post it.
>Looking through the aisles of a local TK Maxx to see if there's anything neat, only a couple bucks on me, if there's anything interesting I'll just go pick up my funds from home and come back, no big deal, I thought to myself
>Suddenly I see a cardboard box
>Goddamn G2 Ramjet for less than 90PLN (Voyagers usually cost twice that in Poland)
>Thinking to myself "Neat! Lemme just go back home and come back to pick him up. Good day, nice find"
>Suddenly a guy that looked 1:1 like the zoomer wojak meme (broccoli haircut, wireless headphone things, earring, sipping something) comes and starts eyeing the same box
>I'm in a good mood so I crack some small talk like "a fan of the Seekers too, dude?"
>Doesn't understand what I'm talking about but is happy to talk
>I let it slip that I'm excited to find a figure we never got in normal retail here
>Broccoli Boy stares at me and starts talking about how that must cost a lot and he'd gladly buy it to resell
>OH NO.jpg
>I only have some spare pocket change on me since I wasn't planning on much besides attending lectures and going home today, so I can't instantly buy Ramjet
>Thinking I'll just leave it at the counter for a moment like I'd do sometimes as a kid, then come back with some proper spending money, even told the clerk some silly story like "excuse me, I'd like to buy this for my nephew but I forgot my wallet haha", basically just some really cringeworthy spur-of-the-moment lingo

A lot, actually. Where they're from, where they've been, what they've eaten or drank at any point in their lives, what kind of climate they grew up in, etc. There's an entire branch of Paleoarchaeology and paleoanthropology dedicated to studying teeth, because they store that kind of information in rings like a tree - everything you've ingested has impurities that are region specific. Oh, and it's also much easier to extract old DNA from a tooth than from a bone because teeth tend to decay slower.

Nor even close. Pretty sure a masterpiece would handle the bug legs better and make them disapear in robot mode, keep the rocket booster inside the abdomen in ant mode, and have removeable insect jaws that transform into the flamethrower giving the robot a show-accurate chest. They would rather make a worse looking ant to have a perfect robot mode, as they have done in every other Beast Wars release.

In fact, keeping the main cues of the orginal toy transformation instead of trying to reinvent the wheel would make for a better figure. That's exactly the problem with Kingdom BW Megatron compared to the Masterpiece too, there was no need to turn the whole chest/arms assembly upside down giving the robot mode innacurate shouldepads or change how the dino thighs worked resulting in a ridiculous amount of messy kibble on the back that looked worse than the huge but clean kibble of the original toy (just two big panels) or the layered but really small (and accurate) kibble of the Masterpiece.

that's a pipe dream, but I think the robot limbs could unfold in a way that looks like better ant legs, and then the unfolded pieces could fold in on themselves a little so they wouldn't just look like halflimbs.
also you are right about reinventing some wheels. although i'm cool with them trying out new things. megatron's yellow shoulders do bug me, but the tiny t-rex head and huge legs bug me more.

Maybe disappear isn't the correct word, but they are repurposed as robot limbs instead of just being there and the folded parts are accurate to the cartoon, with the middle legs being able to be positioned at the sides of the torso pointing up. That's what I meant with following the original toy transformation.

It’s got a great robot mode, a great ant mode. It’s posable and cartoon accurate. It has an intuitive and non-frustrating transformation. Other then upsizing it and giving it a premium paint job and some die-cast, how exactly would you improve it? The only real thing I can think of is incorporating the flamethrower gun into the ass end a little better

>It’s posable and cartoon accurate
As has been said several times already: a Masterpiece inferno would be TRULY cartoon accurate to the CGI model, something that the legacy isn't. Look at this pic >>10193305
>No extra insect legs.
>The chest is not the full ant head: no antenna and ends in two spikes because the front part with the mandibles is removed to form the flamethrower
>Big spikes on his knees like the original toy
>Shoulders line up better with the base of the neck instead of being in a lower position
>Hands with longer fingers
>Slight proportion differences everywhere

And before you say I'm nitpicking: that's the thing, every single Beast Wars Masterpiece goes beyond what the legacy does and are show accurate to a ridiculous degree in robot mode. The legacy doesn't reach that level, it's an aproximation.

As for the beast mode, for the sake of incorporating the ant legs to the robot mode so they're not an eyesore, it would be compromised but other than that would also try to look closer to the show model instead of trying to look like a realistic ant, meaning a completely diferent head for starters. In the show they even made the legs have both black and red colors except the middle pair like the original toy, pic related.

What bothers me the most about the legacy is the weapons bullshittery. Now that they want to have thin ant legs they had to store the robot legs inside the abdomen, meaning it doesn't close perfectly as the original toy and you can't have the jet booster inside, so you need to attach it on top of the ant for storage and it looks like shit. And not only that, but they actually used that as an excuse to turn the booster into a weapon and ditch his classic flamethrower, meaning it isn't removed from the ant head so the chest in robot mode doesn't look as cool as the original.
Other than that, seems like a serviceable mainline toy.

>>10193560
So what bothers you the most? I'm curious.

Yeah, at the end of the day the new Beast Wars toys are always heavily inspired by the cartoon but they don't try to be perfect recreations of the CGI models, something that the Masterpieces try to do at least for robot mode. If anything I will say that the closest one to that is Kingdom Blackarachnia, but that's because she's heavily inspired by the Masterpiece.

I thought this was pretty obvious to everyone, so it's surprising to see someone saying that Legacy Inferno is Masterpiece levels of accuracy when that was never the actual point of these toys.

but the other problem remains. I drilled the slot a little bigger but damn it is hard to get a drill bit down into there.

yup as well as Terrorsaur and Dinobot, was going to grab Red Cog as well but I decided to wait and see if he'll still be on sale/in stock by the time I get paid next week to stretch out my money a bit since I still have some Christmas gift shopping to do(similarly Cybertron Metroplex would have been really tempting as I don't have an Autobot Titan yet, if I hadn't had to miss a bunch of work due to catching COVID earlier in the month, resulting in me having a fair bit less money than I should have had on hand)

at this rate I might just have to start hunting down the rest of the Predacons that have been done in the last couple lines, particularly since I already have some guys from recent lines that would mix with them quite well like the Fossilizers, Iguanus, and Tyrannocon, less tempted by the Maximals though I'll probably hunt them down eventually anyways

>>10192719
in a similar vein the T-Rex version of Beast Megatron is a bit low on my priority list regarding the recent wave of Predacon figures since I already have Tyrannocon, will probably get him down the line anyways but Transmetal 2 Megatron definitely is higher on the list

I know and this is cringe but it's just after all these years with Armada mostly neglected and shit, to me Armada Optimus is like the one chosen messiah who has entered through a multidimensional door to save everyone and kick Decepticon ass. After so long without seeing one of the best Optimus Super Mode touched and updated the waiting is palpable. I know I should keep my expectations low to not make me disappointed but the new Legacy reveals so far have been banging mostly and I have good optimism that Command Class Armada Optimus will turn out great.

Funny, but technically he's all legs with a massive backskirt. I imagine the Commander Class toy will have the trailer be literally the waist and legs but with long panels covering it in trailer mode that will fold to the back in pants mode. As to how the base mode will be done maybe they could just fold the legs forward and some added supports fold down to keep the base from falling back. I hope it comes with A.I.R.L.O.C.K ramp connectors

The one hope I have for an armada optimus is that the look is preserved. Big chunky square robot mode that has shoulder armor up over his head, and that the head of the super mode isn't tweaked. I'd also really love if someone could make the super mode legs fully posable while keeping the "it flips inside out" transformation without compromising the silhouette too much but I understand how difficult that would be. The 3p version looks nothing like what I'd want ad an armada optimus, thank God the energon and cybertron version especially is an almost perfect recreation.

Omega Prime update when.

OK. Boy, I was expecting disappointment, but I wasn't expecting to be constantly annoyed by some of the design choices here. Tupperware feeling ass...

Why the hell are the shoulders not on a slider of some sort? There is plenty of room for it, and at the same time a flap or door of some kind to alow the arms up more than 45° would have been nice. The thighs are molded at this weird ass 15° angle that makes it very strange to try to pose the legs, it always seems like he has something rammed up his ass, very strange. I suppose as a consequence of the fucked up thighs the toes are splayed out at an angle as well. The toes actually bother me more than the thigh issue for some reason, like yeah, the things are fucked up, why did you fuck the toes up to attempt to hide it? I would definitely have appreciated if the wings could be swept back a little, I could understand a lack of movement because of Leo's arms, but for them to be molded to stay straight kills the fuck out of me, why would you do that?

The micromasters are junk. Holi came out alot better than Fire, fortunately, and this may ba a case by case thing. Fire is suffering from mold degradation bad, the knees are extremely tight, to the point that it feels safer popping the legs off to unfold them rather than risk breaking the ball off. That said also, the legs don't fully fold in either, there is no clearance for the wheels to roll at all, and the legs also can't tab together fully, splitting the front of the truck regardless of what you do. The ladders rotation joint is also busted so that it falls off constantly. The combine gun mode doesn't work since Fire's body will just fall off the ladder when combined. This really bothers me because Bigshot was a really nice micromaster, yet here Fire feels awefull. Whatever though my Red Hot doesn't have these problems. Holi is fine, the one thing I can say negative is that they chose the most ugly color layout possible for his vehicle mode, but that's whatever.

Reminder that if you ever get around to TF Cybertron, watch the Japanese Galaxy Force version instead. As a rule of thumb, every UT show sincerely has more complete animation (and arguably better writing and voice direction) in the Japanese versions, since the English ones were all rushed to air.
Cybertron was the least rushed that being said, but it's still a sorta lesser experience if you asked me.

fascinating, usually it's t'other way 'round, since the product gets finished before it's handed off to any translators. But I'm also just now remembering, they don't do like we do and record audio first, then match the animation to it. They animate first then all audio is looped. So they would have more time to do revision during that process.

Yup, it's unfortunately particularly noticable in Armada vs Micron Legend, where the former aired an entire half a year earlier, resulting in much lesser animation, more errors, and very stunted line delivery (combined with over-simplified lines and character personalities in general).
But yeah, Override is neat. Odd situation in localization tho, where she's only a girl in the english version because Cartoon Network thought it was too much of a sausage party. In Galaxy Force he's "Nitro Convoy" iirc, basically implying that since he's the leader of Velocitron he's outright a Prime.

Opinions on Siege Omega Supreme? Found a store in my country that is selling it for 150 euros. I've seen some reviews but I'm still on the fence.

Pros:
-Seems like a really fun toy to have
-Love that it comes with Countdown, as I've been owning the Micromaster Rocket base for over 25 years
-Considering the prices it seems to go for nowadays, seems like a really good deal

Cons:
-I really dislike the puny hips he has and still don't understand why they changed the perfectly looking ones from the prototype, it messes with the overall proportions
-I feel completely neutral about the character (but the same could be said about most Transformers I buy)
-Still don't know where the fuck I'm going to display it

By the way, that same store had Trypticon months ago and I also asked for opinions about it. Seems like they're getting the Titans over two years later that th rest of the world for some reason.

I guess he would be displayed in a pose close to pic related on top of my shelves and I will mess with him from time to time. I collect many other figure lines so I don't have enough space to display my robots in the middle of battle or something like that, but I really like to transform and pose them every now and then, and take pictures.

>>10196139
> In today's day, there should be no reason a transformer tank can't have a rotating turret.
Yeah, saw that on the video reviews and I think the same. It makes the tank mode less fun to mess with, but oh well.

>>10196195
>Don't forget they went for the g1 toy colors insted of the cartoon, so we got a pre yellowed looking grey intead of the blueish grey from the cartoon.
True that, but it doesn't bother me. It's more infuriating to see a brand new figure turning yellow in just a couple of months, seriously hope Hasbro has found a fix for that already.

>still better than the ark (worst titan).
Funnily enough, that was my first Titan and I really like it. I understand completely why it is regarded as the worst Titan and don't disagree, though. It's pretty simple, doesn't do much, has no weapons and feels somewhat cheap, but I really dig the "ancient gigantic robot" aesthetics and the novelty of having a transforming Ark with a Teletraan-1 robot that also stores the Beast Wars golden disks. I own a shitton of robots, so sometimes the sheer weirdness of the concept is enough to win me over.

I read a couple of cases of breakage on his clear plastic claw and chest (the whole red flap that hides his tank is clear plastic cacked in paint) but they might've been hamhand cases, mine only got a knee ratchet stuck, it was scary tight so I had to unscrew it to fix it.

Weird that he got add on ramps, mini soundwave lamps and led eyes and gun, but no 3p hips to replace the undersized ones.

Makes me want to find Commander Sky Lynx prototype images and see if the Armada Minicon Astroscope that was advertised to come with made it to prototype stage or not.

Uses better plastic that doesn't feel as cheap in hand.

Even the no exclusive versions come with guns for botmdes ( you can use his shin guns as handguns, they have a dedicated grip under them)

Altmode is missing guns, but at least doesn't have huge gaps on its sides.

Fortress was the worst until the Ark came out.

That one most definitely had to be hamhand (or possibly poor storage). That thing is just a wide slab of plastic, doesn't support any weight, and isn't even pinned despite its joint having holes for a pin. There's basically no way it could get stressed enough to break without blatant abuse.

Good points.
Though Fort Max feels like more of a let down since there was the original toy to compare it (unfavorably) to.
I'd say they're neck and neck

It can get stuck when closed, my guess is it got stuck, they forced it and broke a corner.

it's pretty hard to get a rotating turret unless it remains a turret in both modes. it's fun for a turret to turn into proper body parts, but if it turns into arms.. what, the entire shoulder process is on a rotating hinge?

The only reason it can't turn on Omega is because part of it is made from the head. I wonder if they could've just had the head fold away altogether and have a complete turret fold out

Fort Max, though, has the issue of being an update on a great toy and basically failing in most regards. Ark is bad, but it's not like there's another titan Ark it's trying to live up to. TR Fort Max loses most features from a toy made in the 80's, and unlike the previous Generations Metroplex, it's not much bigger than the 80's toy. Fort Max is the worst titan because it should have been much better. while the Ark had no real expectations.

Damn look at the colouring differences. Would make Sky Lynx more realistic in vehicle mode (well the Shuttle that is anyways). So no pics of Astroscope, he really only made it on paper before being scrapped then.

If they had to reduce the size of the hips for some reason, shortening the waist a bit would have helped to keep a bit of the original chunkiness. Not even close to looking a good as the prototype for sure, but still better than nothing.

>Weird that he got add on ramps, mini soundwave lamps and led eyes and gun, but no 3p hips to replace the undersized ones.
I don't usually care about 3p add-ons but I would have been interested in those, shame.

As someone who owns the Encore G1 Fort Max, I can say that I never cared about the Titans Return one even if the robot mode looks nice enough. For starters, I didn't like the Metroplex mold all that much either, the city mode didn't look good to me with that ramp that doesn't reach the ground, visible hands and no hint of actual buildings like the G1 toy to keep the illusion of it being some kind of city. But repurposing it as Fort Max made it even worse, because they left out almost all the gimmicks that made the original toy interesting. The new city mode is absolutely terrible compared to the original, and the worst offender is the lack of the deployable waist and arms canons in robot mode. I can understand the arm ones because they just used the Metroplex mold, but the giant waist canons are one of the most memorable things about Fort Max and there was no reason to not include them other than being cheap.

The only thing I know for sure is that the main difference between hip designs is wich part moves and wich one stays in place when spreading the legs, so it has to be related to that. Maybe the original design caused breakages because it was easier to force the joints.

Not helped that that image of Dropkick is mistransformed, I don't know what's going on with that crotch.
Also: Dropkick's foot spikes are possibly the most pointless piece of transformation ever: they're meant to fold back like this picture to give his feet the backwards facing pointy bits seen in his conceptual designs, but nobody ever sees those so a lot of people don't even touch them or fold them back all the way.
