Hasbro's opened voting for Transformer of the year

Interesting that they're asking about the 13 Primes, that may be the only poll that matters given next year's products.
But what does /tfg/ think were the big successes of the year?
Though I should probably be asking what we think Hasbro's biggest blunders were.
Off the top of my head I'd say self destructing Tidal Wave and most of Gamer Edition.

i don't hate him, but I think making him a leader class was retarded. the leg transformation is awful, and the hand transformation is so unnecessary it's laughable. Very much like TM Primal yeah, but his hands swapped so he could turn his body around and just switch hands.

Got the united selects 5 pack. A bit of a qc mess. No clear plastic for some of them is great, but some of the issues are just annoying:

-Jazz has a chunk of paint with rub damage due to how they stored his backpack.
-Similar issue with Sunstraker, but he also had a stressed out ankle that I had to fix. I also discovered with streaker that the paint is prone to scratching. I've noticed this trend for the past few years and it's seriously making me reconsider buying figures if they're cheapening out so much on paint applications.
-WJ is fine.
-TB has a few loose bits, mostly the legs.
-Hound has excess plastic on his left torso connection, the one needed to complete the vehicle mode. If you don't cut or shave it off, you'll stress the hell out of that piece (I caught it before tabing it in).

All in all, I glad I didn't over pay for it.

I like his transformation, but generally yeah I find ape-modes to always be sort of dumb for Transformers. A lot of it is just hunching down, while some shit flips around like its there to justify being a Transformer. Really like him though, hes well worth the $20 I paid. I bought a KO primal too so I coukd use its accessories. Thinking I kight use the KO as an opportunity for a Transmetal Optimus Prime custom.

I should also mention some of the good. things, I guess:

-Face paint is good all around
-Nothing was missing.
-Got a good chuckle out of Trailbreaker because, around thr time of release, some guy was losing his marbles over it on the threads because of partsforming and it turns out it doesn't partsform at all (there's a notch on the back for the shield to tab on, and you can adjust it in order to deploy the weapons without removing it, it can also stay on for transformation).
-The extra guns are nice, but it would have been better if they threw one new mold for new weapons or just reused the autobot pistols from SS86 Ironhide/Ratchet.

I dunno, i think the original primal toy, whose trasnformation has been reused and refined, had a great idea. use the robot thighs to extend the ape torso
but in practice, it's never quite perfect.

i remember seeing a lot of great looking recolors of SS primal, I was.. GOING to try that myself, but I chickened out when I saw his real colors weren't quite what I thought, and now I think they woudl clash with the dark blue I was gonna try.

My first exposure to Unicron was from Beast Wars, and Garry Chalk's delivery and Mainframe's facial expression animation really SOLD me on what a terrifying entity he was to them. and if he is transformers devil, then the Fallen is at least like, a real high ranking dark wizard. and those are cool, in moderation.

Literally every TF continuity is a "born from Primus" continuity besides the original cartoon.
And even there, there's certainly enough wiggle room and inconsistencies in the lore that it's easy to fan-retcon it so the Quintessons lied and just enslaved the TFs, or Primus worked through them and gave them divine inspiration, or Vector Sigma was really Primus, or something.

I've only ever seen them in timelines where Primus is involved. Hell, I cant even remember the last series where the Quintessons specifically made the transformers.

I gave up reading IDW before this point, but my understanding of it's Thirteen is that it's all bullshit, they made it up as propaganda to make themselves heads of different tribes. Also that a time traveling Shockwave killed and replaced one of them and started micromanaging Cybertronian history and development for a gazilion years.

Alpha Trion does this regularly, as does Alchemist Prime. He's usually playing barkeep.

well that actually makes sense. I mean I'm sure IDW did it for iconoclastic purposes because that gets their chodes hard, but that actually resonates. The bigger and more high-falutin' a council is, the more likely they just made that shit up.

Personally I enjoy having the mythology in the far distant background, especially since often enough they have to fight a literal planet-eating god. But it's always better to only have only one or two survivors from that time at max, be it Alpha Trion or Alchemist, or it's a biblical figure like Vector Prime or the Fallen showing up and shit going sideways because of it.

That's Marvel issue 1, which in fairness doesn't totally contradict the Primus origin if you squint hard enough. Another example of what I meant by wiggle room in the lore.
I never liked the Quintesson orign because it reduces the Autobot/Decepticon conflict to competing product lines that are literally programmed to be good or bad. I find the story more compelling when it's a true civil war and the characters choose their sides willingly.

that said, at least through beast wars, they did kind of confirm their programming is what makes them good and bad
and considering at the time transformers was written, there was literally a massive uptick in violent crime due to the accumulation of lead from gasoline in children raised in the inner city... I mean at the risk of sounding like a fucking Calvinist, it's not exactly far out to suggest. I like that it leaves room for either side to reject their programming and join the other team. they still have free will, they just have a real loud voice in their ear at all times saying be good or bad.

Yeah before the whole "13 Primes" thing it felt more like Primes were just Autobot leaders and you had a lot of them with Optimus just being the most recent.

I really hate how small the 13 primes make the universe feel, and especially the whole thing where the war started with Optimus and Megatron.

That's exactly why I like that origin. They're two product lines meant for different things with different needs who need to live side-by-side. It brings up hard questions like how much does a peaceful society need people who are literal war machines? Is a Decepticon, who was designed to be an automated killing machine, capable of taking part in a constructive society? How much of your limited resources should you devote to a giant tank man when you're trying to build infrastructure?

It makes sense why there would be active conflict between the two.

Quick question anons, what's the best way to safely and thoroughly clean second hand toys?
I bought a TM Airazor which needs a bit of a clean, and I don't want to damage the metalised finish.

I'm sure we all have that dream Transformers series we'd make if given the chance; in mine, Primus is a force that the Quintesson's accidentally tap into during the development of Vector Sigma that helps them build Cybertron and its inhabitant product lines, but because the technology they created isn't something they fully understand the Cybertronians are capable of going rogue and rising up against them. So they get chased off and, out of spite, try to recreate Vector Sigma but "right" this time, and in doing so create Unicron and build him a body by stripmining their own planet into a skeletal shithole.

So there's a little bit of mysticism present in sort of a Neuromancer kind of way, but focusing more on the Quintessons and their hubris regarding their creations.

sure, I suggested velocitron simply because I think the forarm kibble lends to the look more, but the main advantage the SS86 mold has over the TR blurr mold for this is: you can pop off his hood portion, replace it with a more accurate piece, and just use his backside as his front side in robot mode. Just swap the hands and you should be fine.
The TR one sticks out waaaay too far for it to be reasonable as a chest piece, but the SS86/velocitron one is much better.

I dont think its a coincidence he came in a bag with a bootleg ROTF Leader Op, the previous owner likely had them displayed together after he ruined this figure’s ability to transform with his shitty fix that didnt even hold. Also this figure is pretty damn ugly and shitty compared to the premium finish version and basically every Optimus to come after him

Thirteen original primes, not thirteen primes before optimus. There are and should be many unrelated primes separating optimus from the 13. The thirteen predate factions in the first place although lines can be drawn to them as spiritual predecessors.

This idea that it's the 13 and then boom immediately sentinel prime... I don't think thats ever happened...

Bonus points if the quintesons rebuild cybertron to be able to transform, unbeknownst to the cybertronians.

Best tf origin would be
Cybertron was a giant robot Primus. No one knows the true origins.
Fought other giant robot, unicron, to standstill.
Unicron destroyed most of Primus' body, but ran out of fuel doing it.
Primus uses his fuel to create 13 bots to help him rebuild. He produces energon, they harvest, they build him up, build more troops, etc.
Unicron starts harvesting planets to get their energy, building up his reserves for a rematch.
Quintessons find debris from the battle, advance their tech with it, invade Cybertron, kill off all primes but alpha trion, and proceed to rule over it, pretending to be their creators, until Alpha Trion leads a team to overthrow them.
Trion accepts his fate as a forgotten relic and let's Cybertron continue to develop, all while looking for new TFs to take up the mantle of the og13. Leading us to Optimus Prime.

her arms are cool, and her legs are cool but they're way too big. she needs more of an abdominal area.
tghe head is, if anything, a bit small. and that is a fucking awesome blaster. star trek would be lucky to have one of those.
and as much as it looks NOTHING like a motorcycle, that might be the single best motorcycle mode of any transformer.

The ones on the feet? The only real option is to pad out the broad sides of the square peg with a small bit of masking tape I think.

It's a friend of a friend who mega likes her privacy, so for the sake of her privacy as well as my actual friend not getting yelled at, I tried to be vague, since singular they is fine for unknown people like "you went to your doctor's, what did they say, I want that information and not their gender"
But for the sake of not having the thread predictably derailed, she's a she girl without mental illnesses
>>11140635
Is there a common issue with this figure? Was just told that one of the wings has its U-bends a bit wider. Using a hair dryer or hot water seemed like one option, or tightening the peg, but it looks like it might be too hard and thick to bend that way.
>draft angle
So is it the "bends more" thing that she was talking about?

your friend has bigger problems than broken transformers if she can't just post pictures. Just saying. Sometimes people need to be pushed out of their comfort zone instead of asking strangers for vague unassisted help. It wasn't a massive demand, just a suggestion. you won't always be there, and strangers won't always be able to guess the problem.

I hated this since I was a kid, since it pointlessly draws attention to something irrelevant, and increased the word count for assignments.

>your friend has bigger problems than broken transformers if she can't just post pictures
I don't know this person that well, she could be overcautious, or has some government job, was stalked before, getting stalked currently - might have some understandable reason for being like this, or has some reason that's not going to be solved by a friend-of-a-friend overnight.

I couldn't get it here either, but I'm a weirdo who's happy with Siege, since he's very posable and I already have the Henkei one from when he came out. Wouldn't have minded a core Starscream though.
Supposedly the regular Earthrise and Coronation Starscream are the same price, due to the regular figure getting inflated with the late tax, apparently.
I don't actually know how disappointed or pleased someone's going to be with it if it was their first intro to Transformers and a Starscream figure, without any expectations or baggage about upscaled figures, etc.
She did note that the core figure had permanently-tilted ankles however.

but this 'they' shit is garbage. and you did not get it from a book, unless the book was using it for theoretical people. such as "if you have a friend in need, help the."

but yes good point, a friend of a friend is not the one to do that. It's nice of you to reach out and try to help for a friend of a friend though.

they literally invented it. 'he or she' provided all the anonymity required. mouthful as it may be (he/she is easier for writing, plus as a bonus it offends he-shes)
the only reason we use 'they' for theoretical people is that there could be any number of them. so we use a plural pronoun. There could be several people at the door, or on the phone. or none. and we use plural stuff for zero too.
Or you can just reword the sentence to keep the person in the theoretical, but that's wasting even more time.

Padding out the peg to tighten the joint is a simple nondestructive fix that's fairly easy to implement. I recommend masking tape since it's got a little bit of a rough texture to it, so the wing will more likely rest in place with a little better engagement.
The warhammer hobbyist in me would say a better fix would be to pad out the nubs on the inside of the draft on the joint, but that's a very fiddly process requiring some careful hand drilling and gluing in microbeads. A lot of work when padding out the post is easier and more likely to be sufficient.

Using the wrong pronoun because you refuse to learn proper English isn't owning the trannies. You know what a better anonymous pronoun is? He/him, especially on 4chan.

I personally never used masking tape for this and have no experience with it, so I initially refrained from passing this along, but I later did give it a mention. I don't really know what to say if she says she'll be eternally bothered by some extra non-toy piece rattling around on her toy, because that's something I'd be bothered by as well, but I also get that I just have a completely wrong idea of how that fix works.
But the description for the process, as well as
>describes what would be a better fix
>adds that it might not be suggested for everyone to do
seems to reinforce the masking tape suggestion with extra warmth, so I'll likewise relay that suggestion with warmth as well, thank you.

It stands the fuck out every single time I see it, and has since it started back when video games and their wiki sites started using it for games like Mass Effect and Fallout, where the character has a single identity but could be either sex. but I held my tongue because how the fuck often is something like that going to come up.

Do people really have nostalgia for the packaging of toys? Like I remember cardbacks but for bigger toys I just remember things being tied to carboard with those fucking wire twisty ties that made getting the toy out a miserable process. I would much rather have things in a simple box with an insert that I can easily get the toy in and out of, and I definitely don't want fucking degrading styrofoam that'll make a mess everywhere in a year or two.

You can miss something without actually wanting it to come back. I have a weird nostalgia for the smell of smoke in a pool hall, but I don't want it to be there.
That said, I'll say this about styrofoam-packed toys.. they never had any damage. and you never felt like getting them out of the packaging could damage them, unlike some of the thicker and harder plastic trays these days.
>>11140809
twist ties are a lot better than those little tiny non-stretchy plastic bands where you basically have to either cut the toy or the packaging with a knife to get it out.

And no, you should probably mention when you're talking about Latin on any international board because it could be mistaken for Italian, or Spanish, or (rarely) French, being romance languages and all.

Even if by some aberration of fate I got into the position to make mine, Hasbro and the fandom would oppose me the entire way.
I'd be pretty much using the two animatrix shorts about the machines' revolution as a basis for the origin and use Megatronus as the first self-aware cybertronian who then has to go around waking up other cybertronians to their true worth as rational beings.
No mysticism innate to Transformers save for sparks, which would be more of a consequence and requirement of conscious beings in the setting than an intended feature; they are just an initial startup energy that the Quintessons find out they have to preserve if they want their robots to be the most advanced.
Then, the Primes would just be the consecutive leaders of Cybertronians, later only of the Autobots, and have a wonky number as Megatronus is the first Prime but had a terrible end nobody wants to be responsible for and Prima had to hide his existence to save the cause of robot liberation.
Megatronus would be the first bearer of the matrix of leadership, which starts as a device made by the Quintessons to gather and process absurd quantities of data for battle and later evolves through use into what we know as the matrix of leadership.
Most of the lore would be as the G1 cartoon, not out of nostalgia but because I think has the most potential to make interesting questions and have fun with the characters.
Also, the ideologies for each side would be based on the G1 toy bios for Optimus and Megatron.

The Star Raiders are here(mostly)!
Thundertron hasn't really piqued my interest so haven't picked him up, perhaps on sale. Even so i'd probably be more interested in Calcitron.

Other than Filch who I've already had for awhile, the rest are straight out of the box and are all pretty cool. Some more than others but overall I'm liking them so far.

Was anyone else slightly disappointed by Legacy Tasmania Kid? The robot mode looks great, of course, but the scalp flap on mine sits way off the face and it looks like he's been lobotomized. In every review I've seen, the toy has the same issue, but nobody seems to bring it up. Is everyone just OK with this?

Totally agree. Unfortunately Studio Series has been shit for years now. When it started out, it was basically taking the best molds that had been made for various characters (e.g. deluxe DOTM starscream, deluxe ROTF Ratchet etc), and making them all in one screen accurate, scale consistent line. It worked because there had been so many prior attempts at these characters, it was just a case of working out what worked. But when they've been making character who had no prior representation, e.g. ROTB Scourge, they've mostly been terrible.

In a surprising turn of events, the sixth version of a mould turns out to be the best version.

Cannonball and Road Pig were probably the ones I was most excited about so I'm happy to say they're quite nice.
Cannonball in particular isn't loose in the knees like his mouldmates and his backpack isn't translucent plastic anymore.

>I got Thundertron in the other day but I'm not hugely impressed by the Star Raider version, I think I would have preferred the head and regular hand of the regular United version more since the paint isn't really different at all.
I'm just not too enthused by his whole aesthetic I guess. We didn't even get the regular release over here so regardless I'm stuck with the Star Raider version.
If he does ever go on sale, maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised and really enjoy him but at the very least I'll get something out of the bundle with Calcitron.

>I feel like these guys would look good with the WFC Mercenaries as well.
Yeah, they seem pretty versatile with where you can slot them in your collection which is definitely part of their overall appeal.
Maybe less so with the Autobots, but if you've got Doubledealer they can go right along working with him.

The flap that holds Road Pig's head is fairly loose on my copy so it's annoying to move his head around.
Also the indecisiveness of his head having lightpiping but then painting over the front half of his face bothers me.

Ultimately though he's on an enjoyable mould so he still happens to be a lot of fun. Simple red, black and gold always looks sleek.
I hope the paint on his shoulders last overtime.

Lockdown and Filch share the same gripe I have which is I wish they had more paint on them. That, and Lockdown feeling slightly stale since we've seen his mould more than a few times.
It was suggested once that they could've used the Chase mould for him, which might've turned out okay.

I really do dig his headsculpt though, very unique among the other Legacy heads and something I want to see more of.

Sure! Here's a rewrite of the Navy SEAL meme tailored for GoBots, written from the perspective of a Guardian, with all the changes you requested:

---

What did you just say about me, you renegade scrapheap? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in the GoBot Academy, and I've been involved in numerous missions against the Renegades, with over 300 confirmed captures. I am trained in high-performance transformations and I'm the top tactician in the entire Guardian fleet. You are nothing to me but just another malfunctioning spark.

I will wipe you out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before in the GoBot universe, mark my words. You think you can talk smack to me over the Cybertronian transmission network? Think again, you obsolete heap of rust. As we speak, I'm engaging my vast network of Guardian spies across the galaxy and your location is being traced right now, so you better prepare for the storm, bolt-brain. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call a power core. You're done for, glitch.

I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can decommission you in over seven hundred different ways, and that's just with my standard arsenal. Not only am I extensively trained in hand-to-hand combat, but I have access to the full armory of the Guardian fleet and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable frame off the face of this planet, you pitiful Renegade. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have kept your fuel pump shut. But you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you sparkless clunker. I will rain fury upon you and you will drown in your own oil. You're done for, junk bot.

>but if they are just OC symbols made up just for these toys, then that is a bizarre thing to insist on.
If a character appears in a wave despite not being on the team they saddle them with the faction symbol anyway. Leadfoot had the Wreckers symbol stuck on him for instance

What did you just say about me, you renegade scrapheap? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in the GoBot Academy, and I've been involved in numerous missions against the Renegades, with over 300 confirmed captures. I am trained in high-performance transformations and I'm the top tactician in the entire Guardian fleet. You are nothing to me but just another malfunctioning spark.

I will wipe you out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before in the GoBot universe, mark my words. You think you can talk smack to me over the Cybertronian transmission network? Think again, you obsolete heap of rust. As we speak, I'm engaging my vast network of Guardian spies across the galaxy and your location is being traced right now, so you better prepare for the storm, bolt-brain. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call a power core. You're done for, glitch.

I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can decommission you in over seven hundred different ways, and that's just with my standard arsenal. Not only am I extensively trained in hand-to-hand combat, but I have access to the full armory of the Guardian fleet and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable frame off the face of this planet, you pitiful Renegade. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have kept your fuel pump shut. But you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you sparkless clunker. I will rain fury upon you and you will drown in your own oil. You're done for, junk bot.

I'll have you know I graduated top of my class at the GoBot Academy on GoBotron, and I've been part of countless Guardian operations against traitors like you, with over 300 confirmed captures. I’m a master in high-speed transformation combat and the top pilot in the Command Center fleet. You're nothing but spare parts waiting to happen.

I'll take you down with precision the likes of which hasn't been seen since Cy-Kill first went rogue. You think you can trash-talk me across the GoBotron communication grid? Think again, glitch-brain. As we speak, my network of Guardian agents is triangulating your energy signature. So you better brace yourself for the storm, grease monkey—the storm that’ll short-circuit every one of your processors and strip you down to your last bolt. You're done for, traitor.

I could be in your location on Quartex in less than 10 nanokliks, and I can dismantle you in over 700 different ways, and that’s just using standard Guardian tactics. Not only am I extensively trained in mech combat, but I have access to the full arsenal of the Guardian fleet—Thrusters, Power Suits, the whole armory. And I will use it to purge you from GoBotron once and for all, you scrap-for-brains Renegade.

I'm still very upset with the direction Kotobukiya chose for their Transformers Bishoujo line. They are treating them like hot girls cosplaying the characters, like their horror line, instead of like their Marvel and DC lines, which are just hot versions of the actual characters. I wanted Bishoujo Blackaracnia and Arcee, and maybe Minerva and Airrazor eventually... At least we have Flame Toys, I guess.

For what my two cents are worth, I've pretty consistently loved the Flame Toys models. They've been fun to build, very pretty, and well-thought out. I've got Arcee and Windblade and they look great. I also got their Power Rangers Megazord and it was like rebuilding the toys I played with as a kid, the fucking things even transform the same way (The zords that is). I didn't put the money down for their Optimus but I bet it was good too.

So, I'm the anon who was asking about Cybertron Scourge last thread. Decided to grab him after all - but since I couldn't find a good price on the original colors version and couldn't decided if I liked the Cryo Scourge color or the Universe Bruticus version better, I ended up grabbing both.
I quite like the Beast Modes on them - big, stompy dragons have always been my thing, and they have sufficient articulation in their limbs and tail to keep me happy. The sculpt itself looks cool, the three-headed gimmick is weird but neat, and Bruticus' light and sound gimmick even still works! Sadly, Scourge wasn't so lucky - his batteries had corroded despite still being sealed in his box, and replacing them with new ones did nothing for him. Oh well.

Robot modes. It's interesting that Scourge is a Decepticon, but Bruticus is a Predacon; also, Bruticus has a purple Cyber planet Key, which is cool - all the other toys I've picked up from the Cybertron line have green ones (except for the botcon Weirdwolf I have, who uses the Snarl/Fang Wolf mold and includesd an orange Key).
I knew going in on these two from asking here beforehand that the robot mode articulation was going to be...lacking, but thought the beast modes were worth the purchase. Sure enough, due to the way the shoulders and hands transform, they're stuck in the 'gorilla arm' pose - while their elbows rotate, their wrists don't, and since the wrists are positioned sideways for some reason, your options are to turn the forearms so they bend inward towards their torsos to make them hold their axes facing forward, or turn the forearms so the wrists face outward if they want to bend their elbows in a natural direction. Such a weird design choice.
I've decided that I like using the three-headed gimmick on Bruticus more than on Scourge - not just because his electronics still work, but also because he's apparently some alternate version of RID Bruticus, who turned into Cerberus as his alt-mode (his colors are a direct reference to the RID toy as well).
They're both big and look awesome, but I don't see myself playing around with their robot modes too much due to the wonky arms - I'm more than happy to keep at least Bruticus in his beast mode so he can terrorize my other bots as a slobbering, three-headed guard-dragon, in any case.

In my head he's always had both the gold armor and had the blue Armorhide

And now I despair that no company HasTak or otherwise, will give me the blue tank I want to create the gestalt in my head

Yeah, they could've been a lot better, particularly concerning the robot modes, but they're still pretty neat and look imposing - they're about the same size as my Prime Beastfire Predaking (though his wingspan makes him look much larger than he actually is). I also wish the beast mode heads could turn side-to-side, though I suspect that was the result of both of the gimmicks built into them (springloaded mini heads would need to be realigned perfectly to tuck back into their slots on the back, while circuitry is running into the main head to make the eyes light up, meaning a turning head risks fraying the wires). It would be neat if they redid him some day with modern technology, but I doubt it'll happen.

She should definitely be a Starscream retool, but unfortunately all the Starscream molds released in the past few years have been utterly trash for something that would require a degree of forethought.

Slipstream would be easy enough to get out of a Starscream mold simply by retooling the torso and head, but the mold would need to be sufficiently slim like the G1 animation model and have vehicle kibble not be effected by the required proportion tweaks.

13 Primes is definitely Vector Prime, ever more useful than Alpha Trion, arguably enough.
For Legacy United, definitely Tidal Wave because he's actually pretty fun. Otherwise, it will go to Animated Prime for the nostalgia factor.
For SS, on top of my head, I don't know the good ones outside 86, and 86 Prime is by and large what everyone is looking for as a cheaper alternative to the Masterpiece (nobody wants a 3.0 Convoy, especially with how serviceable 2.0 Convoy was for its time).
Exclusives? A headscratcher for me, but maybe Origin Wheeljack or freaking Dinoking.

She was always a fucking seeker, retard. She was a seeker in her original appearance; any Windblade repaints that came out later were a deviation from the original. Why can you idiots not accept this?
The seeker form is pretty androgynous to begin with (by design). You could make an Earthrise mode Slipstream very easily by giving her slightly thinner thighs and arms and giving her lipstick. Boom, female seeker, with less retooling than it took to turn the Starscream model into a conehead.

I like the rocks which will likely be the tipping point for whether a TF collector likes this year or not.
From this year I picked up Gears, Windblade, Chase, Shard and Magneous (some of them may have been released late last year, I can't remember). I'm pretty happy with all of them. I plan to get Swoop sooner or later and some of the star raider guys.

You know, Slipstream needing her own mold wouldn't be a problem if there were more fem seekers besides her. I blame modern writers who prefer to just genderflip guys like Skywarp or the rainmakers instead of making new seekers.

It depends, female Nova Storm is fine because she was basically a non-character and there was nothing ever really saying she was a man to begin with, she didn't even have a name for years even after Acid Storm did.
Female Skywarp (and Swoop and I think Cosmos for that matter, from the same show) is another matter entirely. I agree, lazy hack writers and/or writers with an agenda.

Except she literally did though.
I think the issue with this debate has been I'm apparently talking past some of you. Yes, Slipstream has always been slightly more lithe and slender than Starscream. That IS what I mean when I say "female Starscream". I'm speaking in broad strokes here, and yet a few posters here seem to think I must mean she is 100% identical except for color. That's their autism talking, but most people would know exactly what I meant. Slipstream can be slightly more slender, sure, but still have all the classic seeker trademarks, including the cockpit chest and the air intakes next to the head. That is what I mean by "female seeker" (I mean...obviously).
For a good example of what I mean look at Kingdom Tracks and Road Rage. Despite not being the best mold for other reasons, they did a good job subtly differentiating them in the limbs and head sculpt. That is what a Slipstream toy could be, not Windblade in purple and teal.

I miss it as well. It's just a really good color scheme for the Optimus look. I also think it's a nice twist on expectations. Different characters looking the same but in different colors is typically reserved for mooks, like the seekers. But giving a leader a recolor counterpart (that isn't an evil clone) is very atypical, so can be a bit of a fun deviation from the norm. Plus, I think it fits with the kind of ideal, humble leader Optimus is supposed to be. Having one of his own soldiers looking like him reinforces the perception that, inherently, he's nothing special, but it's his qualities of character that make him a great leader.

so there's no reason Optimus should be this totally unique dude. Let him have a Cliffjumper to his Bumblebee.
But if people are real sticklers, then modify. Make him a little bigger and have more armor, and turn into a different truck.

The Seeker mold along with Prime/Magnus >>11144925 were taken from the Dreamwave War Within designs and Galaxy Force Starscream was based on that same design, hence their similarity.

I think it would be cool to see Dreamwave get some love in modern Transformers. War Within Jetfire would be my most wanted and I'm crossing my fingers that whatever Fallen/Megatronus we get in next years line draws its look from Dreamwave.

I wish we'd get at least a Laser Ultra Magnus.
I know the Legacy Laser Optimus mold is unpopular, but the only other alternative is getting the old expensive E-hobby one.

Speak for yourself. I'm getting impatient waiting for Kiryu pre-orders.

There's a guy in my area with an intact Skyhammer for sale at a not unreasonable price
But the thought of dropping money on a time bomb gives me pause

Soundblaster, and "Shackwave" if you except him as an in-universe canon character.

Because they didn’t start as leaders. They were generic dudes, so it would make sense that there are other TFs with similar forms, though they don’t need to be exact copies

Orion Pax-likes seem okay, but Optimus Prime should be unique since he is powered up by a holy item.

She arguably has a bigger role than bumblebee in the movie.
It's the optimus and megs power hour though lol.
While I'm not a super fan of her general characterization, how she functions in the plot is great.
