Leo Convoy had some issue with the torso plastic. I've seen a few copies where the bits holding the abdomen to the rest of the toy snapped off. Arcee and Nightbird have the inner hip joint break, again several pics have cropped up. At least on Starscream, I remember people saying several pinned areas were developing cracks after a few transformations.

Isolated cases.
>Did Trailbreaker, Hoist or the Skids mold have any issues?
Trailbreaker has a weird shoulder issue. It looks like they designed a part to limit movements for no reason. You can leave it if you don't care or you can cut/shave the part to get full range.

Nope. There is molded detail that is consistent wire wire more than anything else. Closest examples to full hair would be Ariel and Arcee being modelled on ponytail and Leia's, but the execution removes the hair texture. A good number have ones that invoke facial hair. It is most common in the live action movies ones have thin wires that invoke hair.

Tarantulas never got a TM2; that's the Fox Kids repaint of his normal TM form. Like the other anon said, he technically isn't worth that much as a BW Deluxe, but given the jump in demand from his comic appearances causing the price to inflated to insane amounts, that's probably the cheapest you'll ever pay for him with all his parts intact; if he still had his box, you'd likely be paying double.

Yeah, I'm not sure why I put that 2 in there...I'm happy though. I loved his design on the show, and he's such a lovable evil bastard in general.

I also got Origins Wheeljack. As expected, Origins Jazz won't fit, which sucks. Theres still something charming about how boxy and solid he is though.

While that's a good mold (SS Crosshair was awesome), I just can't see it as an Optimus Prime, especially since the transformation is unaltered and he still has a 'trenchcoat' that's very out of character for him.

I'm not going to lie, I'm not entirely the biggest fan of the Bumblebee design for Optimus and certainly not of the design they gave him in ROTB (along with all the other re-designs in that movie). The former still completely BTFOs the latter like all the other models they have but still. Something just feels off even though it's probably the best G1 adaptation to live action.

Maybe it's actually better than I remember.

Well I already pointed out the specific things I disliked about him, again; if they gave him properly-sized feet, dialed the headsculpt's back to something more toned down like the original show/toys, and didn't make his car's hinges and ports so visible and noticable, then he'd be way better. The classic deluxe has wonky af clown shoes, but proportionally I was expecting something more akin to Hydrodive Bee.
If they wanted to reinterpret the aesthetic instead, I think they should've leaned further into G1 like Legacy Prowl, who granted I also think is inferior due to the ugly mess visible in bike form, but I at least can accept the attempt done for the botmode.
Also I dislike Legacy TFA Prime because he completely lacks an abdomen, it gets swallowed up inside the chest and just makes him so weird to look at. His shitty old Deluxe had a similar issue, but even then managed to look somehow better, a bit.

We're not talking about waists being thin though, a thin waist is still *a waist*.
We're talking about the waist on the toy literally being swallowed up vertically, meaning the chest immediately transitions into the pelvis. Pictel isn't posing or an ab crunch, that's literally just how his proportions are.
Funnily enough the old Deluxe is mainly what this new guy takes transformation cues from, which also suffered a similar issue, so I'm just left thinking what "were they expecting?" Lol.

The best example of TFwiki's undercurrent of racism against Japan was how Fort Max's pages for the longest time would mock how he had this pelvic thrust pose in his stock footage, and then the instant Derrick J Wyatt made an entire show where everyone stood like that all the time, he got his dick sucked off and could do no wrong.

I don't think that's how Optimus and the others actually posed like in the show, it's a more model sheet for the animators to reference. Same thing with the DCAU model sheets people meme on, they don't stand like that unless it's a crowd scene where they're using the stock model sheets for budget.

Yes, they did CGI card art for everything from the second year or so of BW through car Robots. I guess because the American show was CGI they wanted to align the visuals to it.
They didn't even use the Mainframe CGI models for the package art for the figures that had them, they had a Japanese design studio do them from scratch

Got these three in today. Chromia isn't horrible - yes, she looks a bit masculine (and I'm aware the original use of the mold was for Prowl), but at least she has something that passes as an actual chest (unlike everyone who ended up on the Legacy Arcee and Minerva molds). She's got some good articulation (just missing wrist rotation, sadly). The only two gripes I have about her robot mode are her hands (her right hand is sculpted to be open wider than the other so she can hold weapons with 5mm handles, but makes it very difficult for her to hold the weapons she actually comes with), while the other is with the weapons themselves; they're her hubcaps, and unfurl using a gear mechanism when you rotate the top. Mine keep popping out of alignment, which is almost certainly going to lead to the gears getting stripped as time goes on.
Core BM Cheetor is...disappointing. I heard people describe him as looking like a Happy Meal toy, and sadly I have to agree. It's baffling when comparing him to Vertebreak or the more recent Energeon Megatron - what happened? The kibble on his arms is annoying and does nothing to hide his robot hands in Beast Mode, and his feet (which are totally inaccurate to the source material) have no ankles, which renders all the joints in his legs useless because you can only get him to stand in one pose. He also has pegs on the insides of his upper arms that obstruct arm rotation, and since his head can't tilt back, you can't really pose him in the 'gliding mode' he did on the show.
BB Shockwave, however, is awesome! He's got a ton of articulation (including rotating wrists) and looks great in pretty much any pose. He actually has two normal hands, but you can fold one inside to attach his cannon and recreate his signature look; the cannon itself can be mounted on either hand, or held like a normal gun via a 5mm peg.
His head has light piping, but it doesn't work nearly as well as his Siege mold's (seriously, that thing was some black magic).

Alt modes. I like that Chromia actually looks like a motorcycle (with a seat!) compared to Legacy Arcee; I also really like that the little sculpted dials on the back of Chromia's head become her dashboard; she also jas a little kickstand that flips down, but it doesn't really help keep her upright. Her transformation has her entire chest and 'wings' flip up from under her arms while they go back and her hips turn sideways, with her legs bunching up underneath.
Cheetor's Beast mode is worse than his robot one. As mentioned above, the beast paws do nothing to hide the robot hands and were unneccessary anyway, as none of his original toys changed the hands; they should have been similar to Tasmanian Kid's instead, with holes in the palms for his swords. His torso gets a little longer in Beast Mode, but not enough - compared to my CatSCAN, Cheetor looks more like a frog than a cat with the way his back legs are all bunched up; having no ankles really hurts him here, too, since there's no way to really straighten his legs. The biggest issue here is that his arms peg into his chest, preventing you from even moving them, meaning he's essentially a brick.
Shockwave's alt is the most fun of the group. He turns into an H-Tank, but he's actually got some interesting stuff going on with his chest - the front comes down over his crotch as his legs splay out and become the front treads, his belly then flips underneath to hold his hips in place, then the back half of his upper torso bends forward while his head folds down and arms lock into place to form the rear treads; the cannon slots into a peg hole that was concealed inside the chest; while not shown in the instructions (but shown on the box), the cannon's barrel is actually supposed to extend a bit, giving him a more menacing looking turret that can tilt up, down, and turn all the way around. It feels more like an actual transformation than his Siege mold sans the armor and actually LOOKS like something.

While I don't have too many issues with Chromia other than her hands and blades, I can understand why some may be upset over her looking too manly, though in this case I blame that more on the choice of the mold rather than the 'artistic vision' behind her. At least she makes for a fun motorcycle, and the pink, teal and blue look nice.
Really can't say much good about Cheetor, whcih is a shame - I'm one of the few people who actually LIKED his Beast Machines design, and this version just fails to do it justice in both forms. The lack of ankles really hurts his posability factor, and it's weird that the one character who needed it the most ended up not having them at all (also, why does he have boxy robotic feet instead of proper cheetah paws like all of his previous toys? There shouldn't be ANYTHING blatantly robotoic on a Beast Machines era Maximal). The pegs on his arms hinder his articulation in both modes, too, and I have no idea why they exist; given the very simple nature of Cheetor's transformation, I have no idea how they bungled him this badly. Did someone at Hasbro forget that animals actually MOVE their limbs?
So of the three, Shockwave is the clear winner. He's the one I keep picking up and transforming, and he just LOOKS cool from pretty much every angle; I also like that he's a bit beefier than his Siege version, and along with that big gun, makes him look like he's ready to start kicking fenders and taking names. If you had to get just one of these guys, Shockwave is the one I'd recommend.

Well, everyone except Primal and Megatron, anyway. I vaguely recall it being said somewhere that Primal's original name was Blackjack, but it was definitely already changed by the time the first episode starts, since I'm pretty sure Rhinox says his name while they're still on the Axalon about to engage the Darksyde; Megatron changed his name the moment he decided to join the Predacon cause, hoping to rise to power and become like his idol (despite the fact that he was only ever a grunt under Cryotek until he backstabbed him and swiped the Golden Disk for himself).

I didn't mean everyone-everyone. It's 100% possible guys like Dinobot, Scorponok, and Insecticon were named after the historical guys, and then chose their beast forms to suit them
But obviously Cheetor going "Yeah I'm Cheetor" means his previous name was probably Rotor or something.

say what? I assumed his name was Optimus Prime (with an unspoken "But not THAT Optimus Prime") and he modified it to Primal. Though I guess 'primal' has other meanings, some just scientific.

Cheetor and Rhinox were clearly announcing to everyone that they had new names, at the very least. That implies some of the others did as well. I forget whether Rattrap did that too.
And it would be one hell of a coincidence if Tigatron was already called Tigatron (since his name is the only thing about his former life he was able to retain, possibly info from the pod). Ditto Blackarachnia
Inferno and Airazor, Silverbolt and Quickstrike, those guys could easily have kept their prior names though.
One wonders why anyone bothered to name Rampage. I bet he chose it himself.
>>10950304
That makes a lot of sense. Also explains his beast mode being a modern animal. he probably looked up what his name meant once, found out it derives from an earth animal, studied them, and fell in love with dogs. To the point he could tell the computer how to make him one.

Although... That begs the question of how G1 Hound got his name. Either he's named after a similar alien animal, which "translates" to Hound when talking to humans, or his real name is the Cybertronian word for, like, hunting and tracking, and "Hound" was the closest translation.

It's best not to look this deeply into this kinda stuff, on shows this old. But I mean, Jazz wasn't Jazz before waking up on Earth, right?

holy shit, throne mode? I haven't tried that
what i mean is, in the original toy, the spider head folds down while the arms swing out, so the tarantula legs are facing backwards in a neutral, arms-down pose. Which is also how we saw him in the show. whereas the new toy rotates his torso (so they can fold his spider head away entirely, and use a fake one for his crotch) and that leaves the spider legs facing forward.
They could have made that part swivel I suppose, but as it is, it was hard getting proper realistic tarantula legs to fit on those arms (the base of the legs is just hanging off, as i'm sure you noticed. makes em look like when you get snow crab legs at a buffet). the show cheated their size quite a bit, and the toy started with thinner legs in the first place.

He's talking about the spider legs. Tarantulas usually kept them splayed pretty far back when he wasn't using them to shoot at people (Mainframe most likely kept them like that to minimize clipping while animating him), but on the toy you can only angle them back so far.

well, the new robot mode crotch looks more like the original toy's head, so I think the idea was "let's make the beast mode a little more realistic, since that's obviously the mode that gets the shaft during the Kenner design process, and it needs a little help and the kids should believe these are real animals, but let's keep the robot modes looking more like the toys since those modes look pretty good, and that is the character you're buying"

>>10950418
Right, and the original toy looks like it could let you do that, but the detailing in the modern one makes you want to keep them somewhat facing forward. Even for BA the detailing was neutral so you could have them turned away
It's not incredibly bothersome since I just have legs facing down like a cape, I like to pretend it lets him type on more keyboards.
What really (slightly) bugs me is the chainsaw I don't know what to do with, and the no-strings grappling hook not plugging in snugly on his beast mode

Because the original toy didn't do a 180 twist at the waist, so the spider legs naturally pointed that way. I remember being annoyed he couldn't do the machinegun mode from the show, so I lifted his arms up so the spider legs would point forward. kinda "Hands up and i'll shoot!"

and all the spider legs have a ball joint this time, so I don't really get your specific complaint. What issue do you have with the new legs that you feel is compromised?

You know, I never understood why they didn't just sculpt the visor on from the start - at that point, it had been established that his mutant head was his definitive look, so even if the toy sculpt was made before his actual debut on the show, there's no reason for them to have given him separate eyes - pretty much everyone who went Transmetal kept their same face from before, even Primal (who just lost the blast shield bits around his mouth, exposing his nose and more of his face).

I get the strong impression that the transmetal designers were a very different group from the ones who did all the snarling weird-ass mutant beasts from the first wave. Considering most of the transmetals (especially the toy-only ones) bear only passing resemblance to the characters they supposedly are, I don't think they concerned themselves with that at all, or even looked at the old toys or the show. they were just given a list of animals and told to design one that has a vehicle mode, and with the robot mode sorta-kinda-not-really looking organic.

He's kind of awkward in general, with his wide hips (they couldn't make those collapse?), his weird expanses of rhino-textured-skin-meat crammed inside of rhino head half-shells, and those side flaps just hanging in the breeze. Plus his bizarre third mode and his weird kinda Pokémonesque beast mode (what is with its snout??)... but all three of those are excellent paint jobs, not a bad one in the bunch.
It's funny how like, chrome was a big selling point, they are the transmetals after all, yet due to chrome not playing nice with joints, they had to resign it to just a few areas, used just as accents, never as a main body color. Mainframe picked up on what they were putting down, and made sure to render them extra shiny. But then the 'organic' robot mode parts often looked shinier than they ought.

They're as collapsed as they're going to get - his robot legs are his rhino arms, so they spin down and crunch together to make his pelvis; his rhino legs end up on his back, and robot arms stow in his rhino chest while the shoulders make the head.

Did Wyatt do Ben 10 Omniverse? I thought that looked good. He's got his gems, but I don't know, I like the idea or the spirit of Animated, going with more cartoony designs, but I don't like how oddly human most of them look, and I don't mean the proportions or anything, I mean how a lot of the bots just look like people in clothes. Like Mixmaster looks TOO MUCH like a construction worker. It's gives me OC, Deviant art vibes, even though I'm pretty sure this came out first.

The Gobots could have had a shot. I've only got the one now but I've always felt like their toys were always more interesting and creative than the contemporary Transformers
It's just that, even though we dunk on the G1 cartoon it was still outsourced to Japanese studios.
Tonka decided to have their cartoon made by Hanna-Barbara.
And I think the reason for that is that they never imported the main guy from Machine Robo. So they couldn't just dub the anime.

I think the point is that nothing WAS influenced by Avatar, until 2011 thundercats gave it another try (and went full japan this time). and when that failed too (for the same reasons, shitty toyline that didn't try), they stopped entirely, and stuck with that goofy western shit that cannot into mecha.

Finally saw a Magmatron combination video. I'll have to check more reviews, but the combined robot mode seems to be held together by four tabs between Landsaur and Seasaur. I was hoping for something like that, along with pegs between all 3 to provide additional support. This means that if those four tabs are damaged, the combination could be undone very easily.

Looking at the old one, that one used tabs and clips, but it's still more secure than the new one, one arm used an l peg, the other clips, and skysaur has a dedicated connection to seasaur via clips. Its not perfect but some of those could be damaged and the combination should still work, while the new one seems to have seasaur entirely held by a set of clips on that connect to Laundaur on both sides of the chest and nothing else.

Can attest to that. Due to how you need to attach skysaur slightly crooked due to some wonky tolerances/design one of the clips on mine is a bit stressed, but the thing is still rock solid when combined.

All we know is the designs (the DESIGNS, don't conflate with artstyle) are... supposedly, mixing elements from G1, WfC/FoC, and Animated? With Sentinel in particular looking TFA-like, apparently.

Shard is actually pretty awesome, and she's the best of the three rock bots to date. She's supposedly made out of Death Crystals (hence her spiky appearance), and while the concept of a robot made out of crystals transforming into a helicopter (or any other vehicle) seems weird at first, it makes sense if you think of them as more primitive robotic lifeforms - anything made out of metal is technically made from refined rocks and ores, so these guys are just unrefined Cybertronians.
I'll say she makes for a better helicopter than the new Sandstorm, since she doesn't have to make any compromises to accommodate a third mode while trying to stay show accurate.

Ultra Magnus was, for most of IDW1, a persona adopted by Minimus Ambus. Minimus was a Loadbearer, having a spark powerful enough to animate a body far larger than his defeat form. Ambus's default form was a small, Cassettebot-sized body. His first layer of armor made him "normal" sized, though still a little short, and granted him a hovercar mode. His next layer of armor was the Magnus Armor.

Dominus Ambus was Minimus's brother. Also a Loadbearer, his default form turned into a turbofox. His single layer of armor made him "normal" sized. Dominus was married to Rewind, before faking his death in order to infiltrate the Decepticon Justice Division as a spy. He took on a new set of armor and the DJD's "Vos" codename. Eventually he was discovered, striped down to his base form, and lobotimized into a feral animal. The next "Vos" of the DJD was the sniper rifle-former, spiky-mask-guy.

and that's hardly lavender. lilac, perhaps.

No, there was a Ultra Magnus, he was rad as fuck but he died in battle, then the Primes decided he was way too important to die, so they made other bots wear armors on the Image of the original Magnus so the troops kept the high morale (Minimus was the 7th or 8th dude to wear the armor).

It was copied from a Marvel retcon, when they decided to bring Cap back in the 60s, they game the suit to other guys pretending to be Steve Rogers, so no civilian in universe knew Captain America disapeared on WWII.

Like >>10952687 says, both toys were relatively androgynous enough to pass; they also had the benefit of having a tie-in cartoon that gave them more feminine models and female voice actors, making it far easier for kids to overlook the appearance of the actual toys by associating them with the clearly female characters on the cartoon. After all, when you mention Blackarachnia or Airazor (or ANY Transformers character, even the G1 guys) to someone who grew up with the show, it's usually the show model that pops into their head first rather than the toy .

Honestly, It's an even STUPIDER issue than that. It's the fact they are approaching fembots differently at all. G1 Hot Rod has roughly the same proportions as G1 female Autobots. The biggest difference is there's just more soft curves in areas like the thighs and forearms. It seems we either get try too hard to be dainty and overly human or we get weird thin but sharp squared angles. All that needs to be done is make the transformation scheme GOOD and not be given "hero" shoulders and the sculpt work and carry the rest... SS86 Hot Rod is pretty damn close to the proportions of most female transformers. It's beyond stupid Hasbro can't just invest in at least one really good base mold for female transformers even and just reshell and resculpt around it. Yet, they were willing to do that 8 times with a TERRIBLE base mold that nobody enjoyed transforming.

But yeah, he doesn't need to be in everything.

It’s definitely closer. But the backpack is so unnecessary. The shoulder pylons are whatever since it had to be Minerva. It could be improved by the fenders being shoulders/biceps and having the chest be part of a plate for the hood or trunk of vehicle mode. That way we end up with windshield and maybe one panel hinges over it as a backpack only. Also smaller thinner wheels, utilizing wheels like SS86/T30 Arcee or SS86 Hot Rod would go a long way in the engineering. Especially since most fembots hav more stylized vehicle modes typically.

That would be crazy obtrusive. Maybe hip skirt armor like how Earthrise Elita has in her design would be the more practical version of that concept.

>>10953176
Elitas backpack def isn't horribly offensive. But it feels like a huge step back compared to engineering of the male figures. She pretty much just is a higher quality combiner wars style transformation.

Truly simplest solution is just do the arms like this. The G1 female autobots all are just the standard Floro Dery look. If Hasbro has figured out Hot Rod, Blurr and Kup they can figure it out easy. Just thin out areas of the designs and stick to what they did with Legacy Elitas legs and just lean into the boot look.

Hasbro needs to learn female figures sell less not because they're female. They sell less because they're half assing the engineering. Which is ironic because they're pretty much half assing it because of the former. It's just so agitating seeing the same mistakes made over and over again, especially when we then get thrown shit like the rock armorizers, like they really put more faith and budget in THOSE?

No, they're not selling them to kids anymore, thats why the titanmasters are way smaller than the original headmasters, the new target audience is supposed to be more careful than a 7 yr old on the 80s.

He wasn't though. While he mostly was, they had JUST finished a flashback miniseries the year before that had the original Magnus.
In addition to that, his character was written very consistently until the lost light/mtmte where they decided to retcon him as someone else.
It's very obvious they remade the character in the moment, like they did with anyone else that showed up in that series.

In fairness I dunno if it's fair to dump that exclusively on MTMTE, all of IDW was pretty loose with characterizations depending on who was writing.
Kup written by McCarthy is different from Kup written by Roche, who's different from Kup by Barber... you get the idea.

i'll concede the point about the flashback miniseries having the original magnus, but I'll also dismiss it because that flashblack miniseries was AWFUL. And the characterization was the same anyway.

In fact, the only times that Magnus' characterization differed was:
- In issue 14 of MTMTE, which was a few issues before the Minimus reveal, that was showing a bunch of times that "Magnus" had died
- The Rom crossover miniseries, which was published LONG after the Minimus reveal and was specifically one of the previous Magnus armor wearers.
Other than those, and the flash miniseries mentioned before, all of the Ultra Magnus appearances in IDW were Minimus. Other than those two points listed above, Ultra Magnus acted the same.
So getting mad about it is insane.

Also like while Magmatron may or may not go on discount someday, I feel like budgeting-wise it'll be a safe bet to wait on getting SS86 Optimus (assuming he's good). It's not like he'll go out of stock forever; he's G1 Optimus and presumably their definitive version of him, no matter how much he sells out they're gonna reissue him to hell and back. They reissued Earthrise several times, they just reissued GE Optimus (I wasn't sure if they would anytime soon); and look, even G1 Jetfire alone is getting reissued for the 2nd time already lmao. So I won't worry about "missing out" on Optimus, I'll just be patient if anything. I've got tons of other Optimus's.

I mean outside of the pterasaur head not rotating, I think the old toy did do everything better lol. Some ankle tilts and more stability and it'd be golden. Plus I loved how his little gun folded in half and hid behind his head. Can you believe I'd buy this damn mold a 4th time if theh released Lazerbeak though? What is wrong with me

that's the thing, they easily could have rigged up the "wing backpack" backwards. It wouldn't be exactly like the old toy, you wouldn't have the legs running under the body and you just ignore them, instead the hips would make his chest (and he had a pretty strong chest with big flight muscles on the show) while the feet would trail out behind -which is what pterosaur feet do-
my only thought is they were like "hey he should be able to stand, he stood a lot on the show!" so they did this.

>if losing accessories is still a problem as an adult you really need to take better care of your things.
That is a solid argument, but it's something that's bugged me ever since I was kid, even though I did take care of my stuff, but small parts just bug me. Things like muzzle flashes, or grenades, missiles, all that stuff, I just look at it and think "this needs to be kept in a special box so that it's never lost." but even if something like a missile gets lost, okay that sucks but in the grand scheme not that big a deal, but if the head goes missing (if I'm moving or need to transform the figure for storage, whatever), then that ruins the toy. Yes, I know you can get the alternate heads and stuff now, but if I lose the head to Nitro Zeus, and put the head from Galvatron or Fangry on it, it's not Nitro Zeus any more.

But it's not a stupid retcon. He gained a lot of character development before and after his real form was revealed, and he never felt any less like an Ultra Magnus.
This is Transformers, a franchise that completely reinvents everything about itself every five seconds; why get so hung up on one specific iteration, when there's like 5 other radically, wildly different other ones too? The only reason to complain in this scenario is if one just hated new ideas, in which case this isn't the franchise for them.

I has also occurred to me that movie TFs scratch yet another itch. With a transformer you get your vehicle, your robot and your puzzle. But with the movie figures you basically get a replica car too. The liscened car modes just really do something for me. Feels like im getting more

That's just paranoia, anon. If things are properly stored and boxed they wouldn't go anywhere. Also, from the headmasters I have they attach so securely into the body that they're not going anywhere any time soon, or can be stored in the cockpit in vehicle mode if it's one of those that can close securely. If you need to move you can also just keep all inside a ziploc bag and then put that inside a bigger box with their bodies, or even inside a bigger toy with storage compartments.

In fact, because of LG and Victory, there's two Ginrais, the human godmaster who becomes a headmaster then a godmaster again (because MP stories are canon) and the robot guy who gets rebuilt into Victory Leo

Ok fine, it has been stale with evergreen BS for the past decade, and I'm in denial about it. My descriptionof the franchise hasn't been true since 2012 or so. But even so, it HAD been true for ~30 years since the franchise started; and doesn't it mean something that IDW1 (the one TF thing that actually tried to continue being different during the 2010s) is what the modern fanbase latched onto so hard? Above RiD15, Cyberverse, and the movies since AoE?
I'm not sure "Shut up! Stupid!!1" is quite the best argument you could've formed, so I'll just give you this one last (you) for the road.

Toy colors and anime colors. Toy colors comes with a trailer (but it doesn't get nearly the overhaul the cab robot does), while anime colors is trailer-less. Both toys are identical molds beyond the colors.
Which is better just comes to your own personal preference on the idea.

not exactly sure how it could be done well, given that it's kind of everything you don't want to deal with in a beast mode (tail that can't reasonably articulate in a figure, so it's stuck in a useless shape, limbs that are too long to hide, but too spindly and boring to simply recycle as robot limbs)
