the one who has the bat alt from the original bat Optimus Primal. The body proportions fit, just a different set of wings and retool the chest to have the bat head. Nightshade is a good mode for her

I hate the show designs but I love most of the toy designs that were made before the show or unrelated to the show a lot. Jetstorm, Tankor, Scavenger etc. Maximals were weird and still had humanoid faces but still kind of neat. Definitely not as bad as the show. I love BM BlackArachnia especially her Universe repaint, Skydive and Snarl. Toy Vehicons were great though.

all you need is to replace the head for a Nyx head, bat wings and a new chest. don't even need to change the transformation, maybe have a false bat head on the chest but the real bat head hiding in the back. If Filch is possible with a few minor changes, then anything is possible

It's a different design team so probably not. More likely just make a new core for Bat Prime and repaint her out of that. Or retooling the Airazor mold again.

On the note of Nightshade customs, I was thinking of getting one for cheap and customizing it into a homage to BW Prowl. Maybe throw in some extra police-y features as a callback to more traditional Prowls, and also because the idea of his name actually being Police Recon Owl (P.R.Owl) makes me chuckle.

Saber and Ginrai spent most of the time on their non super modes too and never explained why.

Guess once Fortress said big mode takes too much energy in Headmasters, that was turned into the default excuse.

Not sure why Zarak seemed to have an easier time in big mode, maybe cause he wasn't a double headmaster? (g1 didn't had a "mid zise" counterpart to Cerebros).

It's a super robot thing. If you use the power up from the get go it loses its coolness.

Nonetheless Saber is an exception to the rule, as he used the super mode in the base, he just removed his helmet.

Not always, but he and the other brainmasters were only like 5% of the time on their non powered modes, they didn't like to be seen on their original human size.

It's never stated that the Brains are their original bodies, though. In fact, the original idea was that their true forms are the Transformer-sized bodies and the Brains are just small transtectors where they transfer their consciousness, but is never referenced in the show.

That makes no sense, the whole point of small bots using bigger bodies as power ups was to save energy.

The only time something like that was used was on the legends manga for Trypticon, after his second destruction the destrons installed a black box to back up his personality components, that box was later turned into TR Full tilt headmaster.

Not really, in the Japanese continuity the Headmasters were developed first and foremost so they could have stronger bodies able to survive in the hazardous environment of planet Master. The small robots that are fuel-efficient are the Micromasters, and they have different origins.

Also being able to be small can be useful for many things. Nonetheless the modern explanation that was given in Ask Vector Prime is that it was used as a link between regular Cybertronians and the small Cybertronians that become Headmasters.

Also it doesn't really matter if it makes sense or not, that's how it is. Not the only thing that can be pointed as nonsensical in this franchise, and at the end of the day is just a toy gimmick.

On paper, it is, but the only way to know if it's worth the money is when you get it in hand. In my experience:

-Victory Saber wasn't worth, theDtar Saber's knees alone were so poorly made that I was furious.
-Deathsaurus: About 40 bucks more expensive than it should be. Chair and base could have been designed better, the figures qc is good but I don't see thr value, not to mention several parts lack ratchets so that could be an issue in the future.

Yeah I own both previous haslabs. I hated Star Saber (aside from the QC and the abysmal packaging). For some reason the clearance for sliding the jet into the main body for alt mode is ass, so every time I go to the combined jet form I'm actively scraping the chrome off.

The jet mode has way too much screw holes to the point it looks like the Survivorship bias graph on wikipedia.

In robot mode, The proportions have this MP10 "mom I shit the bed proportions", and the shoulders make him look super dumpy with the sword. I wish the MP was better, or else I don't need to cope with it. I do enjoy victory leo.

Deathsaurus is definitely overpriced but they did stick to the landing for the most part.

God Fire Convoy here is around 300 USD here (before the 12 dollar shipping because fuck us I guess), and for the price I can get the SoC GaoGaiGar for a similar price, and in some stores even cheaper. My love for Car Robots is what's really doing the legwork for backing it.

>Fort Max and Scorponok
I prefer Leader class, be it Marvel or IDW.
>Metroplex and Trypticon
Don't really have enough major appearances nor character focus for me to care much, even if their big setpiece moments in the WfC/FoC games helped.
>Galaxy Force Metroplex and the Super Link combiners
Former was barely shoehorned in at the end of the show so got little to no focus, and same but worse goes for the latter; would only care for SL Omega Supreme for his spacetrain mode and Optimus combination, but even then I don't see him as a Titan. Don't think he'd sell at Commander, so at most a hollow leader.
>X series' ship
I would've loved the Ark or Nemesis as hollow playsets, but I do NOT need an expensive and heavy Titan shoehorned into its design.

Makes me wonder how they'll approach a Victory Saber rerelease in the future. I say how and not if, because with all the demand still I'd be shocked if they never did any rereleases, but there seems to be a lot of genuine complaints with his design that Deathsaurus (and hopefully Godfire Convoy) don't seem to have.

I wonder how they'll do SL Shockwave. Own the OG and there's a substantial amount of clear plastic. Obviously the easiest way is to just make the green solid, but it'll just look super wrong.

What the other anon said lol, they just have to not cheap out and/or use the clear plastic in smart areas so it wouldn't be at risk of breakage - it is a Titan class toy, surely they'd have the budget to not make it ridiculously thin and flimsy, right? Haha. Ha haha.
That said tho, even though I'm the one who wrote the post, I think the Hasbro toy/game colors are the only repaint I'd personally be willing to shell out for anywho; I think it's the coolest out of the three, and my blood ain't rich enough (or my shelf big enough) for three Tidal Waves, lmao.
...Well, unless they squeeze out a Whaleformer retool for him based on his Sins of the Wreckers appearance. That design was sick (and admittedly his dialogue did make me lol). But I doubt they'd do it.
Unless they would... haha naw just kidding, they would never. Unless...?

It really sucks that TFwiki has shat on Energon's reputation. Energon sucks, but I found SL watchable (aside from the egregiously stiff movements), and Shockwave was consistently fun to watch.

I'm not made of money (and space too), so any reuse would be a pass since I have the new Tidal Wave preordered. Personally not a fan of most Armada redos in Legacy so far and I do have my issues with Tidal wave (no seat gimmick and elevator), but fucking hell the thought of populating the deck with vintage microns definitely has me pumped.

Odd that no one has pointed out that he's also in the Pirates in the Botcon comics, considering the new walmart subline is that.

Fingers crossed that when they were designing the new one they've accounted for the Energon clear reuse, but at the same time they've admitted that they're still testing the waters for Energon so they've put Galvatron in Core class...

Found and bought Legacy Animated Bumblebee this weekend. First one had 2 of the "holed" stinger pieces and one of the capped pins holding his shoulder on wasn't pushed in all the way. Returned him for the only other one in the store and the one I got has a bunch of excess clear coat on the windshield and one of the clear plastic parts that connects the shoulders to the body was pre-cracked. I shot some Plastruct Plastic Welder on it. Didn't make the crack disappear but also the crack doesn't seem to contract or expand when in use so I'm hoping it's just cosmetic.

It's really fucking sad that every time I buy a figure there is SOMETHING wrong with it. What the fuck is happening in these factories?

Those hoping for a Titan Class Animated Omega Supreme, I doubt it will happen anytime soon.

It’s still too close to release of G1 Omega Supreme in 2019 and the Ark in 2021. Since Animated Omega Supreme is essentially both.

Earliest Titans Class release I can see for Animated Omega Supreme is 2028. Plus you can celebrate the Transformers Animated series 20th anniversary then.

But that still leaves the mystery of what will be the Titan Class figures for this Generation Prime trilogy in 2025, 2026, and 2027.

Reposting from previous thread, got Metroplex and disassembled the shoulders since I have yet to move them. Where am I meant to cut or shave to avoid the ratchet joints from wearing out? I heard from an anon a while ago that his Metroplex shoulders came out of the box greased and already fixed to prevent the gears wearing, mine is also greased so is the fix unnecessary? And one last thing, does it matter where the screws go into what hole? Accidentally lifted the disassembled shoulder and all the screws went out, got them all accounted for but not sure if the holes are all the same or not.

the new windblade is ugly, even if you ignore how she's built like a fridge. Sorry but the paint job sucks, her legs stick out like crazy and look ass (thanks cyberslop), the chug greeble is haphazardly applied and the jet proportions are liquid shit it makes T30's alt look decent

Only redeeming thing about the mold is because she's the first decent windblade figure that can stand.transform, and doesn't look like a fucking blockhead.

that too, but I think that kind of thinking often misses the point. While it's important to separate fantasy from reality, there are still things that are natural and unnatural attitudes regardless of what they're applied to, and it's best to stick to the former. It's fine to deliberately enjoy fantasy that transgresses what reality can normally do, but you have to understand all the nuances of that, and don't let fantasy make you think something's bad when it isn't, either.

Minicons are a pretty core component of Armada, along with the gimmicks. That is the series identity and the remakes have been gutted of them for a combination of cost and to appease joyless neckbeards.

Frankly most of the Armada updates would have been better served by having toys inspired by them and another Titans Return line wide gimmick.

Transformers being bricks was never a problem from 1984 to 1995. Being bricks in 2001 was never an issue either. If it's fun to transform and the other play features add to the experience, it's a fun toy. Many 1984 toys with less articulation than Armada are still fun toys.

Considering her torso is held by a screw, I'm surprised that coomers haven't made any more lewd upgrade kits to fix the torso if they find issue with it. Tradeoff is that replacement kit to be more coomerish would look out of place with the rest of the body though, as its in this shitty Cyberslop with rivets aesthetic.

I never bothered with the Armada toys as a kid because I hated gimmicks in toys, so I'm really glad they are releasing them now without the gimmicks. I want to play with my toys, not stick a key or another toy onto it and let it play with itself.

Don't have anything to day about the drama, but I agree Legacy Windblade is garbage. Cyberverse Windblade is already very close to G1 WB in design, meaning that a Legacy version would only add the changes in color and mostly focus on the alt mode. Despite that, they changed the sword, gave her a fuxking v shaped torso with barely any tits, added all those weird lines on her abdomen that don't really match the rest of her design, and fucked up the lines on her face (they made it molded detail that left an indent of her skin, then added notable creases to the corners of her mouth that create this double crease effect that looks bad).

I mean...no. It's one thing to joke about but when your entire review is just bitching that the figure doesn't have massive honkers, it's kinda weird. At least other reviewers review the fucking toy and not complain about not being able to fuck their figures for the entire length. I have no idea what drama anyone is talking about but the review popped up on my feed so I watched it and I couldn't help but feel like I was supposed to be laughing somewhere but none of it was funny. Instead I just felt like I was listening to some lonely faggot complain that his robot toy doesn't have full on human genitalia.

Even then, we can't look at those changes and assume they're there for Slipstream. The torso shape being wrong wouldn't impact SS since not only is it made for another female transformer, that's not how her torso looks in anything. So yeah, WB looks wrong for no reason, and I doubt SS will be any better.

I guess I have to question what you mean by quality. Do you mean QC, or engineering/paint/etc? Because I'd argue POTP was fucking dogshit overall quality compared to now.

I feel like sentiments are bad because of poor distribution and prices. I'd say that on some level we are in a golden age of figure engineering in mainline figures. I took a break from Transformers since around Combiner Wars or PotP showed up because everything looked really cheap and shitty and boring. Came back for Legacy and some of Kingdom because it seemed like things were on an upswing.

I just feel like the fandom is just a bunch of whiny fucking faggots too. Like everyone in this thread seems to literally hate everything and somehow empathize with horny lonely kids who want titties on toys that show up in stores. I'm not even trying to come off as sympathetic to Hasbro because they absolutely have to get their shit together on multiple levels, but the dooming in this thread is so laughable. It's like the opposite swing of the spectrum of the people who are sending death threats to Jimmy Kimmel because a writer had him read a joke about Rise of the Beasts on some awards show.

This, and it's worse than ever with Hasbro's cheeky "X sized toy at Y class pricepoint" BS. They lubed us up by making it seem like the extra cost would go toward extra engineering, but that's quickly going out the window and now they're just fucking is raw. Bots like Sandstorm are being released as "leader class" for no fucking reason other than to make them cost 55 bucks.

Not him, my personal experience is that I've had to fix figures almost right out of the box, either due to some engineering issue (like K.Magnus hip ratchets), loose parts and I've had to return plenty of figures due to damage in transit or straight up kissing parts. I never had to deal with missing parts of figures until ER, and it's only gotten worse.

NTA, and I gather that I'm an outlier, but I just find all the current toys extremely uninteresting. Yeah, they're dipping back into a lot of TF history like Beast Wars and Armada and Energon that haven't had any shelf presence since they originally came out, but everything feels like a complete misuse of budget. Bot modes don't have their own identity anymore, they're just literal 1:1 fanservice but with more joints (sometimes not even that much). Everything just feels like a placeholder for the next marginal improvement, and nothing has an identity of its own.

And don't get me started on alt modes. They're almost all absolute rubbish nowadays. I know a lot of fans seem to regard alt modes as superfluous, but if you ask me it's exactly that attitude that is ruining the franchise; people are more concerned about getting a character that looks accurate to some shitty cartoon/movie/comic/video game instead of staying true to the toyline's origins of being "robots in disguise". I don't care how accurate or articulated a bot mode is, if the alt mode sucks and it's no fun to transform into said alt mode, then the toy is a fucking failure as a Transformer. There's a certain charm in a toy with a flawless alt mode and a compromised robot mode, but I find vise-versa to be pretty unacceptable. It almost feels like Hasbro took a page out of Iron Factory's book, in the worst way possible.

>>10907803
>I've had to fix figures almost right out of the box
This has been true for a long time, in my experience. Loose joints have been a universal issue since I started collecting 15 years ago. I don't know how anyone can possibly be a TF collector without a big bottle of acrylic clearcoat at the ready for almost everything they buy. All the modular bots have been particularly problematic in this regard. It's just that now I'm paying twice as much for the privilege.

Gonna bring up more random examples of crazy shit from the past few years:

-ER Sky Lynx missing all the paint for the shuttle section
-K. SIideswipe and Skywarp pack being a package swap that had a K. Warpath missing a shield (this was a "brand new" listing on Amazon)
-Godbug from the 4 pack needing a pin sectioned widened so it could actually transform.
-Fangry from the 4 pack needing tightening up for the piss poor knees.
-Both core Shockwave and Soundwave being so loose, the limps would flail around just shaking them lightly.
-Having to shave several sections from Scourge and Sweeps blue thighs since the main thigh is hard plastic and it's already cracked out of package ( all copies have thus issue and I believe it was only fixed for Alpha Trion. This also allows you to turn the thigh swivel properly.
-Spoiler Nemesis having the joint for his backpack upside down, meaning he couldn't transform, then he yellowed in less than a year because fuck me, I guess.
-Shaving down the post for leg flaps of Armada Prime. The section is too tight, and combine with a thin section on that flap being prone to stress, you could break it if not handled properly.

And fuck Star Saber, you can't fix him.

I know looseness has been an issue for years, but I have seen it this bad. I've bought figures for every line since Classics started, but I haven't gotten so many figures loose out of the box until ER came out. The worse I remember was certain pegs or peg holes being too small or big during the Prime Wars era, but at least they've mostly fixed that in recent years.

I've basically been taking a break since COVID and it hasn't helped. I pop back in every now and then to see if anything interesting is coming out and I'm never particularly impressed. Some bots I've really wanted for my collection for a long time have been revealed, but there's always some monkeypaw bullshit that, combined with the stupid price points, store exclusivity, and just plain poor distribution, makes it real easy for me to pass.

I think once my Missing Link Covoy comes in, I might consider that a good end-cap to my collection and call it quits.

Shit, I could probably post them all right now. Give me a sec:

Primal: fingers could be too tight and crack on the hinges. Thighs not given enough clearance doe robot mode, guaranteeing paint scraping off if you weren't careful.
-Cheetors head tab snapping off and certain hinge sections being so thin that you could crack them if you ham hand it a bit (you'll regret pulling the beast chest all the way for robot mode)
-Megatron, several parts are prone to breaking, notably his tail arm at the shoulder and the pinned section for his dino hops could fall out.
-Blackarachnia. Chest tab could break and the pincers are hard, thin plastic so be careful.
-Cyxlonus yellows
Dinobots waist is wobbly and he yellows
-Airazors wing hinges could crack due to a lack of clearance on certain parts or if certain wing pieces ended up in the wrong orientation while transforming
-Magnus had a change between this and Siege that removed plastic that served to keep the hip ratchets in place, meaning they can slip off and/or break.
-Rodimus has several parts that can be damaged due to tight connections (like the backpack to the windshield) and the backpack is misaligned on most copies. I got lucky and had the upper shoulder pieces swapped, thankfully it was an easy fix.
-Rhinos yellows
-Tracks is a walking hand granade and has a few gc problems to boot, like the legs being awful.
-Tigatron yellows
-Blaster yellows (both versions)
-Huffer and Pipes both have a misalignment issue with the can section not sitting flush in vehicle. Not the worst thing I've ever seen, but not something you can fix easily either.
-Wheeljack has the same issues as last time.

I think these two I picked up over the weekend condense the thesis of your post rather nicely
New Prime is inarguably more articulate than the original version and the 20 year old toy next to him.

But Crumplezone just has so much more personality. In both modes.
Actually wait, this might be a bad comparison. I thought Crumplezone lacked a waist swivel nut he has one. So all Prime has is ankles and wrists. And CZ still has a moving jaw.

Is there any proof at all to back this up? I do admit that it's weird how different, aesthetically, Animated Bee and Prime are compared to Animated Prowl, who came out a year ago. Prowl actually feels like "Animated Prowl if he were G1", but Bee and Prime just feel like weirdly off-model versions of Animated Bee and Prime.

>>10907890
I dunno. Something a little more like picrel. Still very G1/generations-esque proportions, but with the seasoning of Animated.

The rest carry the charm of the original Scramble City toys and most of the rest of the toys. PotP's Leader Class was a super enjoyable gimmick with the Prime mold in particular is quite the fun toy. This thing is though, Headmasters are just a far more entertaining gimmick than combiners. All there is to it.

yes, but for whatever reason, in the early 2000s, they were like "let's make our OWN zoids, then we won't have to pay Tomy a license fee for those specific ones" (I'm guessing on the motivation. possibly it was just because hasbro gonna hasbro)
and hoooo lord. They... MOSTLY understood the concept, but not perfectly, and several of them were clear ripoffs of real tomy zoids.
That, plus their insistence on gimmicks like spring-firing missiles (which hang on, you gutted the spring mechanisms from some Tomy ones for 'safety') and rip-cord motors... reaalllly killed the line at that point. and it has never recovered.

yeah, so maybe that was it. maybe it was about choking.. but i'm pretty sure they still included the missiles themselves.

come to think of it, the only one I can think of is Iron Kong, which had a G2 Megatron style "pull back springloaded trigger that catches, then hit the trigger" gravity-fed missile launcher. those are the best, because the missiles don't have to have a stupid catch molded into the rear end.

sure it has some dumb hasbroisms, and the eye placement is a tad goofy, and the tail is almost plagiarized, but it's sleek and decently put together. and the idea is sound, a big ol horizontal T-rex with a big head is something they flat-out never had. only stompy kaiju and small-headed 45-degree-angle theropods.

fair enough anon, yeah I had a bunch of gen2. But I never got fucking Onslaught and couldn't form Bruticus. I had megatron Tank. Two versions of Optimus. My favorites were the Decepticon fighters and the Grimlock. Beast Wars I had rap trap, cheetah, white tiger I think, optimus ape, and the bee I think.

>Animated Prime is still out there.
A complete listing of the voyager is $100 Buy-it-Now at the cheapest.
The cybertronian deluxe is $25 and the battle-damaged earth-mode deluxe is $45 (because he comes with a show-accurate axe in scale with the Voyager). But everybody wants a proper in-scale Optimus with accurate proportions, so almost nobody's settling for the gorilla-armed Deluxes.

For additional reference: The original Deluxe Bumblebee is $60, the Activators one is $16 if you're that much a scale nut. Deluxe Earth-mode Ratchet is $65, Cybertronian is $38. A basic Deluxe Prowl is over $80, Samurai Armor is over $155. Voyager Bulkhead (with all his fingers) is over $60, Leader is... indeterminate, there's only one ebay listing that doesnt have his scalp ripped off, and that's ~$140 shipped.

Needless to say, there is not enough product to meet the demand. We literally do not have enough figures out there, if prices are this stupid. Not to mention all the figures that could receive genuine improvements while still being in the show's trademark style... Optimus was one of them.
Look dude, I'm into G1 too. But I have my G1 figures proudly sharing shelf space with Beast Wars and Bay designs too. There's nothing wrong with it, you do not "need" them to be homogenized simply to share shelf space, or anything ridiculous like that. Would it be neat sometimes? Oh yeah, sure. That guy making Beast Wars-ified fansrt of different-continuity characters is sick, and G1ified Bay designs are also fun. But, you need to learn how to read the room, too.

If you're an animated fan you had more than enough time to get those toys, btw ebay should be your last option, search for local sellers on facebook or local hobby stores. You should get anniversary reissues in time anyway.

the legacy toys are just a missed oportunity to do something different with those designs.

I love that I've been able to create butthurt over this by saying it literally once. Better proportions doesn't always mean "most like an actual humanoid". G1 Sandstorm is simply a much better balanced toy, in terms of proportions, and alt mode compromises. Wish I could buy one of those, mint for 55 bucks instead.

Geewunners don't want "heroic" proportions; they want "sunbow" proportions, which is overly long legs, comparatively, impossibly small torsos, short arms, and oversized bobble heads.

MP10 was regularly cited by Hasui himself to have "heroic" proportions, and I think it's definitely a much better example of such. The hilarious thing is that Animated Prime actually has some of the most comically "heroic" proportions of all time, so this is a weird stance for you to take in regards to him.

2003 was a time when you could expect a decent budget and a trailer full of features that justified its price. In current year, you can expect an empty box used as an excuse to bump the price up a couple of size classes.

Also, in 2003, more of the TF fandom was actual toy enthusiasts, proportionally. Nowadays it's like 80% nostalgiafags that just want a thing because it existed in a cartoon.

NTA but speaking as someone who was really excited for a Prime with a trailer and got ER Prime, I'm kinda over Prime trailers that don't do something special. ER Prime is a really good toy and about as good as a G1 CHUG Prime is going to get, but eventually you realize G1 Prime's trailer is just a box on wheels. It does what it's supposed to but that's kinda it. Laser Prime has the base mode, which is an improvement, and Armada Prime has the super mode (which is awesome) but by its very nature G1 Prime's trailer is just kinda boring.
To be fair I felt the same way about combiners; I was really excited for CW and then when it came out I realized I don't much care for the G1 Sunbow combiner teams.

Any bets? I know it's a tossup for them.

In regards to Bee, I'm keeping him. I used Plastruct in the crack and while I can still see it, I don't see any stressing or anything when transforming or using the joint, which leads me to believe the crack happened when the pin was fired into the figure. Also carefully using alcohol to get the excess paint/clearcoat off the windshield is working, but doesn't ruin the figure. Shame because he has a really cool form factor.

Masterpiece and its third party options. For mainline you don't have many options, just the siege mold on its 2 repaints, galactic man (grey exclusive) and destron bridge (takara boxset).

I hate the Legacy Laser Prime mold and don't care for blatant corporate shilling, but I do really like that color scheme on him; probably would be an instant buy if they had used the Volvo Prime mold instead.
At least they put that Ravage mold to better use - I always thought that version looked more like a dog than a panther.
>>10908917
He's still got his built-in shoulder rocker pods, plus that drone turret from the trailer has a pair of cannons on the front and can be held like a blaster (like shown in >>10908900) or mounted to his back. Bullseye himself technically counts as a weapon, too.

Seriously. Unless you want "cheap and small desk toy", where you have several good options, if you want a decent-sized Shockwave that doesn't turn into a yoga pose, the Siege mold is your friend. Shockwave is hefty, can turn into a spacegun, and the super spaceship mode's actually pretty neat. I don't really use the parts for his robot mode, but people have had fun with them, picrel.

I mean, you don't need any of the extra stuff to transform him at all (though it does vastly improve the look of his alt mode and can be used to give him his old gun mode with some creative rearranging of parts). That being said, given the fact that the dude's a mad scientist, him building himself a hover-drone that transforms into some additional armor seems in-character for Shockwave, so I never really got the hate.

You can fold his robot legs down to create a handle while using the bigger 'nosecone' part from the armor to create a better rear, making a pretty convincing gun mode.
You can actually attach all his other bits and bobs to it to fill things out further, but just using that nosecone alone brings him close to his G1 appearance.
On a side note, if you have two Core Legacy Shockwaves, they can turn into Targetmasters for him or be mounted under his Super Gunship's wings to make an even bigger spaceship mode.

ehhhhh let's be real, this is a lateral move from the original. it had better flushness, but also big visible hollows in the arms. this one has better-defined hands and wrists, and yeah they stick out further.... and yeah that's a problem. I dunno. Most of the changes to me are lateral moves. down to the sculpting on the paws. original was fine, this one is fine. and it's weird they went with the toy deco with the black face, do you think takara actually asked them to do that, to boost Premium Finish sales?

I think what happened is they looked at airazor and went "this is acceptable" not really grasping that she should have had a bigger bird head AND tail, to benefit BOTH modes.

The issues come from the designer changing the transformation scheme, instead of just adding a swivel to the wing backpack while removing the firing missile gimmick, he felt cheecky and tried to be original changing most of the transformation:

hmm, i'm glad the wing orientation was changed from the original (the original looked like it would only have needed slightly larger hinges to fold the wings back properly)

what really baffles me about this new one is why do the beast mode limbs have tabs to hold them rigidly in place? why would you want that?
Also I see no reason the new transformation scheme would affect the tail. the only theoretical issue would be it hanging too low in robot mode, but that's easily solved by having it fold up

it looks to me like maybe they intended to paint the grey feathers to make it blend in better, but ran out of money. but making it white in the first place costs an entirely new sprue, doesn't it? like that is obviously not paint. and if it were paint, then it'd be pretty poorly-applied paint.
god i hope that piece comes off and has a really easily accessed connector. china don't fail us, come on.
I don't think I can reliably make my own tail feather fan, that is just beyond my skills.

At this point for this Generations Prime line, if we assume it will be another trilogy, wouldn’t it makes sense to not have any Titans and have two Commander Class figures. Maybe even three per year?

only partly though
why did they mold the piece in all white, despite it having sculpted grey feathers, instead of sculpting it in grey and adding a bit of white paint
they had to make an -entire white sprue- for that tail piece
if i'm wrong and it is painted, then they wasted white paint painting the entire tail piece instead of only the ending feathers.

For years, I've heard fans call a generic Cyclonus, "Armada," but this is literally the first time I've heard anyone call it, "Hizarmada." In fact, googling the name just know only shows a few Reddit posts and two hits from the TFW2005 boards, some of which write it as "Hizar Mada," so I'd hardly call it a widespread joke that fans call him Hizarmada. If anything, fans call him Armada as a joke, and a handful call him Hizarmada or Hizar Mada.

yeah they are a bit strange, but they wouldn't have fit otherwise I guess.. If I can get over Volvo Prime having a completely different truck for his faux chest kibble I guess I can accept some weird fake doors. The thing that does bug me on this guy is the hood chunk totally borking the silhouette of his cool robocop head, he looks like one of the less good titan masters, where the head design REALLY doesn't work as a headmaster, but he doesn't even have the excuse of his head turning into a little man.
Managed to nab Velocitron Override and Burnout for decently cheap so I'm hoping this will be similar.

same, genuine bizarre design choice. They could have had it fold in or even just have a flap behind the head, anything would have been better. It's slightly less noticeable on Burnout since the head is already pretty square and the whole thing's mostly one solid color but here it looks especially bad. Like, all that retooling, and you couldn't find some way to fix that? It could have been okay if the head design was slightly tweaked to be more square-ish and the slab looked more like a part of the helmet maybe, like if it was an engine block or something. I dunno

So is there a reason I'm supposed to hate Legacy Armada Starscream? I see a lot of disdain for this dude here and other places, but aside from some looser than desired joints, he's pretty solid. Especially in jet mode. He cleans up really nice while retaining the likeness.

Either way, in a few days I get to move him to my good guys shelf because Cybertron Starscream is en route.

isn't gold plastic syndrome mostly a non-issue in newer toys?

also, the triggercon shoulder guns from crankcase double as the red alert cyber key guns on cannonball, which is cute. but they could've taken the chance to make them stand out more instead of being tiny nubs, especially since they insisted on including the cyber key.

At least for me, the joints being super loose was an issue, since it's harder to fix them due to all the pins, both swords are comically short, his face is based on T30 Armada Starscream instead of the original and ita missing so much paint. Cybertron Starscream has a similar issue with paint, while some bits are missing paint, his legs are missing practically all paint applications.

I guess that makes sense. I don't think the lack of paint apps drove me away because I remember them being pretty bland even back in the day. I know what you mean about the pins because I went to grab a screwdriver to try and take him apart and even for capped pins, these things are so deep you'd basically have to ruin the figure to fix it.

I never owned Cybertron Starscream so I guess I wouldn't be able to tell without looking up pictures. I remember I got chased off of one of the fan sites because I said that the gigantic version of him was stupid and shitty because it added no posability and just gave him some shitty crown and everyone got mad at me because I kept saying it looked like a knockoff.

I saw some pics of him though and he seems to have a lot of nice articulation for a Voyager so I had to scoop him up. Molding looked good too.

>Damn, I’m seeing so much love for the Filch toy.
Though her appeances are limited to a single episode of RiD and a short story that was a direct sequel to it, she's still a somewhat memorable character - both for the fact that she wasn't necessarily 'evil' (just a kleptomaniac with a thing for shiny stuff. If she saw something she liked, she was taking it regardless of the problems it would cause - even when said shiny thing was the support beam for a bridge or one of the Autobots), and for her relatively simple personality (her entire vocabulary consists of "shiny!", "Not shiny!", "MINE!", and a lot of screeching, and she's pretty bird-brained, acting like a giant magpie instead of a dangerous criminal). She's also somewhat memorable for not transforming; we only ever see her in bird mode (there's a one-second glimpse of her robot mode, but it's from behind and she immediately turns back to her bird form), which adds to her quirkiness - she clearly thinks of herself more as a literal corvid than she does a cybertronian robot, to the point where her in-universe mug shots only show her bird mode face.
>Did this happen to Nightbird toy too?
I don't think so, but Nightbird has had other toys before her most recent RotB one, between the T30, the Siege Generation Selects, and the MP; Filch has had nada since her introduction.

Honestly, no idea - I wasn't back into collecting at the time her T30 was released (I got it years later, though, and it's definitely the best incarnation of her to date), so I wasn't paying attention to the hype. I will say that Nightbird most definitely has the coomer vote over Filch - Nightbird was notable for not possessing an alt mode at all in the G1 cartoon, so she was always in sexy ninja mode, while Filch has a robot mode she never uses and is always in bird mode, which I don't see a whole lot of horny dudes getting excited over; the current interest in Filch would be coming from people who liked her as a character, while Nightbird only really had the fembot appeal on her side (while later versions of her fleshed her out a bit and gave her more of a backstory, her G1 incarnation didn't have much of a personality at all, given she was just an artificial robot that was mind-controlled onto the Decepticon side). So it seems to be a different kind of love from a different kind of audience going on here.

You might be able to. It's only held in by some clips. I feel like they could have done so much better with this figure had they stayed closer to the original transformation. I get him tomorrow so I'll be able to see for myself, but this feels like one of the first Beast Wars re-do's that doesn't have anywhere close to its original transformation. I feel like they could have done the bird-dog legs to robot legs by keeping them still like they are, but pulling them out and down on some sort of sliders and hinges so that you can retain the waist swivel somehow and just have the rest of the figure convert the same way as the old one mostly, just adding a part that makes the wings and back hinge downward as a backpack.

He still looks awesome, but I just am disappointed with the conversion.

I had a weird thing of rediscovering I always liked transformers figures, I had a few from Armada and Energon but I really got back into the series with the films, I'd since found pictures of me at a really young age playing with animorph figures.

Everything people said about the QC and wasted paint apps, but primarily for me it's his poseability and lack of features. He can't pose his wrists well despite being a swordsman, he has no port or even room for a future Micron on his back, and I wish his swords could actually be formed out of his wings instead of being that tiny fake dagger bs. Also his legs tend to have a terrible time staying pegged into the back panel during jet mode.
I also really hate Legacy Hot Shot, I wish both will be remade eventually...
