I've stumbled in to a gift card worth quite a bit. Its good on Amazon.

I'm getting leader Magnus and battle core prime.

Any other recommendations?

I was looking at maybe Chromia as well.

Is devastator worth it? I have no fondness for the constructions, but no harm in owning a giant Combiner.

I went to Ollie's.

I think someone got there before me and cleared out all the fembots (except for Windblade for some reason, there were lots of Windblade).

I did get Jhiaxus for 7 bucks though. Never saw him in stores originally and I'm fond of that Armada Starscream mold.

They also had Generations Roadbuster and the Target exclusive deluxe Optimus and FoC Voyager Grimlock two pack.

I already have Takara Arcee and Gen Arcee isn't "different enough" to get both. Windblade is so dirt common online that it'd be cheaper to order than to drive an hour to get to their store, and is such a piece of QC crap it isn't worth it. Chromia is also somewhat cheap. Rattrap and Waspinator are known to break, I think HTS still sells Scoop for $10 shipped on eBay and Tankor is also common. None of the others I want.

It's nice they're hitting a discount chain, but it'd be nicer if it wasn't one with shitty store distribution. If this were Big Lots or Dollar General it'd be easier to find these. Ollies barely has enough stores for half the people who want these to pick them up.

Ultra Magnus is great, Battle Core Prime is just regular Prime with slightly different deco/molding, and supposedly fixed hip joints for combiner mode. Get him if you want, or want a Prime to use for combiner stuff, or just get regular Prime. Either are good, just regular Prime isn't as great for combiner mode. But then again, he's kind of a shitty combiner since "Not muh Gee Wun" anyway.

Chromia (and Arcee) I just got in the mail today. Chromia's arm's are kind of soft plastic-ey from the forearm up. It feels kind of weird, and her elbow ball joints are really tight on the forearms. I'm somewhat afraid I'll snap her if I move them side to side too much. Other than that, she's a pretty cool figure, I think. Her hands are better designed than Arcee's (I got the open hand kind). I got'em together for about $45 with shipping. A bit expensive (around $22.50 ea for Deluxe sized figs, most Deluxe's are around $17 normally), but given Arcee is scalped to fuck at around $30-40 just by herself usually, getting them both for $45 wasn't bad for me, I guess.

Legends Chromia has nice, sturdy forearms. I had the same concerns with Gen Chromia. Glad I got Takara's. I like both colors but those gummy forearms ruined it, as did the clear heels.

$45 is a bit much, really, now that they're flooding Ollies, scalper prices will drop a bit when Arcee gets more saturated. Plus Chromia rarely sells for more than $15 on her own- you could've got Takara Arcee and Gen Chromia for about that, really, if you ordered separately. Maybe a bit under $70 for the Takara pair(TFsource is the only US-based shop I know of that still has Chromia for anything decent but Arcee got a 2nd run in August and the market got flooded).

The only counter to scalpers is companies actually reissuing shit if theres demand for it, to prevent scalpers from being shitfaces.

Most scalpers though usually have under the table deals with various stores I've found. I knew a few people who used to scalp figs-They'd get their shit right out of the warehouses or local stores days before release, and have every last one of any known/desired figure in an area. Actual customers never had a chance to get them, they went right to the scalpers.

Oh, and like I said, I can just avoid doing side turns with her elbow ball joints to avoid any potential disasters. Her shoulder ball joints have more than enough range of motion, especially combined with her hand ball joints. Why they used this softer plastic though, I'll never know.

This. Back when MP-10 hit TRUs I would ask if they were ever going to get any in store and they could never guarantee, just "depends on what we get on the truck".
I find out later at a local toy show theres a guy with a booth at the damn thing who had a deal with the store manager to buy them all as soon as the truck got there. Manager was probably getting something under the table too.

I honestly couldn't see ever giving an Arcee or Chromia to a kid, they'd have that shit in pieces in under a day.

In seriousness though, CW Optimus' combined head is very PMOP-ish and slightly smaller than the old one. It might come off as too "detailed" for a G1 toy though. You might want one of the head off one of those "shampoo bottle" titan toys for something with less detail to better match.

You have to take apart the large head and clip on a small piece to make it fit.

Although when you look at photos of actual people you'd see that the original head is actually more proportional and a lot of TF designs get it wrong with pinheads on bulky bodies.

Just speaking from personal experience, our truck crew had scalper stashes all over the store, the managers would go around and try to disrupt that shit constantly because they would get written up for it. It wasn't so much of a problem that they ever fired anyone over it, or did more than scream and give demerits, but it was something of a red mark on the store when corporate discovered that we had sold (for example, and this should date my time at TRU) all the g1 Soundwaves in a single transaction to someone with the phone number 000-0000 (this was back when TRU took phone numbers as well).

I'm just saying that they aren't just trying to go for an optimus figure wearing armor now. They're focused more on the magnus aspect and that obviously means they aren't worried about a transforming cab.

Those are different people. Some feel a bond to Ultra Magnus's super mode body, some like the white Optimus and see the other as just weapons, and some don't give a shit as they have the Ultra Magnus from their favorite continuity already.

I kind of like both.

I think the colors they use for things like the RiD legion Magnus that just came out or the dollar store legends Magnus that's just white optimus are nice and work well for those.

But I also like what we see when UM is the hulking not white optimus like in TFA or Prime.

I'd rather keep the white optimus to the smaller figures though if that makes sense.

That was you, and other folks, my proffered version was white Optimus that combines with his trailer.

Some people like the white Prime, others the normal Magnus, and a few like the one that combines with his trailer. No reason to insult anyone over it.

Battlecore Prime exists for those with a white deco fetish, I guess. Since he doesn't exist for any other reason anyone seems to know of.

Speaking of reasons, why is Windblade a bad figure? Is she just wonky, or brittle or something?

Not him, but the biggest critique of her I can see is her shins downward. Her heels don't lock in (it'd have been so simple to put a hole and tab setup there without increasing plastic count too). This makes it really easy for her heels to fold up forward and she'll topple over.

Outside of that, some people just don't like the general thin, lithe look and find it too spindly and maybe even fragile-feeling (although I've not heard of anything actually breaking commonly). Some see her jet mode as overly gappy, the sword as poorly stored, and/or the wings annoying to pose in robot mode.

Lastly, some people just don't like how she's not very accurate to the comics (or, I suppose, most of the comics featuring her are not accurate to the toy if you want to be specific). The Takara version does wonders to make it look more like Sarah Stone's version of Windblade, but there's only so much paint can do.

Overall, I think she's between a 6 and 8 out of ten, depending on your tastes and such.

In terms of current stuff? There's Strongarm in the RID line that you might still be able to find on a shelf, and there's MP Road Rage who'll be out in December.

But if you go into the backlog, there's plenty. Thunderblast, Howlback, Minerva, Arcee triplets from the movie, Rosanna, micromaster Discharge, Airrazor, Cyb. Override, etc. Even more if you add in Botcon stuff.

I think I'm addicted to building my collection, /toy/. I haven't bought a toy in over 15 years, now I've dropped nearly $500 on it all. And $500 is a lot of money to my poor ass. I'll probably end up near 600 by the time I'm done.

As far as I've seen, Elita was never started and there's really nothing to see regarding the combination. Maybe they just figured movie toys can look so weird who would care if the combined form was off. Or maybe the toys got started while the idea was for them to combine but they ditched that during the toy-designing phase and they never took it out.

Either way, I'd love to know more about them.

Yeah, but then you'd be forced to buy 2 with matching hand, or foot pieces, which would be a pain if you buy one that doesn't mix with the rest of a combiner.

Hopefully, they include that with the voyager.

For Computron, they need to advertise an entire team, and they'd have to come up with an excuse to bring the dead technobots back.

basic Insecticon is super neat, too. Love his weapon and he is a lot of fun in both modes.

I'm also partial to Nightglider, even though the Dark Scream deco is way better.

As >>5266835 said, Insecticon is a great little figure, and he has an added bonus of being cheap on the secondary market due to his simplicity and non-show status. Powerpinch is a great figure as well, along with Razorclaw. Most of the basic Fuzors are at least decent, like Bantor, and Terragator is pretty cool if you can get a complete one. (avoid it if it's not because he looks like shit missing either of his weapons)

But we couldn't have. It doesn't take the same amount of time and effort to design a repaint/retool as it does to do a complete mold. We've got 4 unique MP molds on the horizon right now. Is that not enough for you people? MP-30 would have had to been a repaint at this pace, or they simply wouldn't have announced anything yet.

>>5267148
This reminds me of all the faggots in Smash Bros. threads on /v/ who thought that palette-swap characters were "taking up a slot", only this is even dumber because it's a fucking toy line that doesn't have restricted development time.

You make good points with the smash bros thing.

I know in the first mortal kombat just to cram in more characters they used the same ninja sprite just with new moves and color and glitches gave us 4 sprites.

For a toy line I guess with established characters with actual fiction to them its expected.

One I've never understood though...exhaust, just a diaclone thing I take it?

Or was he forced use of the wheeljack mold?

The beast combiners are all probably getting new hand/foot parts.

Hopefully, they do something interesting to integrate guns into the design (since they'd eventually have to do the seacons).

Yeah, it is. In fact, the Convention Center is right next to one of their major offices in Providence. (Their HQ however is in Pawtucket.) But Hasbro doesn't give a shit about Rhode Island Comic Con because it's so bad. Last year, the fire marshal shut it down.

I think the only reason they're having a Transformers panel is because Peter Cullen and Frank Welker are there, but I don't believe Hasbor representatives are going.

I would have gone to see Frank Welker, but in addition to still being bitter about the fire marshal incident last year, they were charging a wopping $175 to see him, same for Peter Cullen. I've gotten autographs of much more famous people for less.

Damn. At least I got one of those G1-colored FOC Grimlocks, though, so that's cool.

How is the chromed out deluxe prime that came with him?

Pretty bad. Not only is it the hideous Bayverse abortion design, it's also covered in chrome to the point any details are something you'll never see because the fucker is so shiny.

I found a forest of Arcee and Chromia, went back the next day to pick one up for a friend and the scalpers had cleaned it out.

The shame is that $7 is well under wholesale, so they could make decent money just selling them at MSRP.

Last Christmas I sold a ton of Arcees for $20, undercutting scalpers. I still have slot left over but nobody will buy them paired with anything else. Even BBTS still has her paired with Chromia for a good price and people are poorfags about it.

Oh, I had alot of them because I ordered solid cases from a distributor. It looks like Hasbro has largely abandoned that experiment. Too bad, because it was a great way to bypass their stupid assortments and get the toys people actually wanted out there.
