Mp Grapple anon who complained about the ratchets in the crane.

They seem excessive to me (and once transformed back and forth they cause the truck parts to uncouple) but they weren't difficult to move.

Tabbing him back into truck mode is a bitch though, even here he ain't perfectly aligned, the hand tabs especially refuse to stay in, still I didn't notice much looseness compared to inferno though the tabbing might be my exclusive issue

I'd expect Aussie customs to clamp down just as hard as they did for MP05 very soon, so if you're strayan and want autismo it'd be best to get him sooner rather than later... Or just cooperate with your dictatorship and buy a fucking gun license for a toy gun.

I think part of the idea is they're meant to be plugged into one of the larger figure's base modes, turning them into mounted turrets.

But, yeah, on they're own they're kinda dumb.

Taken a bit of a risk m8, the forum members of Oz transformers have been pestering border patrol on how legal he is, chances are he might get caught.

That said check them out as certain states allow him to be kept for free, you may just need a simple form to own.

If you're in Vic like me you need to pay for a nearly 200 approval form every 3 years and prove he'll be locked up tight, failure to keep paying means they'll know you have a megs.

Well, they have Omega Supreme on the backburner, but then again, if they did Predaking as a Titan class, that'd A) leave the Autobots 0-2 on Titan class combiners, and B) Devastator did not work well as a Titan class (imo, I think the contructicons were designed as a smaller size class first, then upscaled) so that leaves the risk of Predaking being shitty.

I really fucking hate myself for saying it and I understand the implications of such an opinion but Optimus looks outdated as fuck.

V.2 Megs has MakeToys levels of articulation while MP 10 is a little brickish in comparison.

Eh, I find MP10's articulation to be more than serviceable. The only thing I wish he had is a double elbow. 90 degrees of range on an arm is pitiful.

It would be a really easy upgrade part to make too if some upgrade company would just make a replacement bicep part for him.

The articulation is the same other than wrists and neck which megs has a bit more of. The only issue is MP-10 has blocks as body parts which in all honesty is just part of the character. Honestly I think the bigger nit-pick here is how Megatron's elbows are assembled. The joint is connected strictly on the outer side of the arm, idk about anyone else, but ive never seen a joint that was pinned on the one side like that honestly stay durable, he also has a weird gap in his mid-section at 45 degree angles behind that red portion on his side.

I think MP-36 is a HUGE step up in engineering, and is without a doubt impressive, but he just has too many gaps and lines in both modes for my personal tastes.

Judging on how much the G1 version and the Japan exclusive version from that Universe Inferno mold go around these days, the chances of you seeing an MP Artfire especially the official going on sale is close to zero. If any his price will literally just keep going up unless Takara constantly reissues him or you stick with the 3p versions. That's actually how popular he is despite being a "who" character in the western market for the most part still.

You forgot the diaclone/microman black version with blue leg panels, which could still happen but would be a webstore exclusive/asia exclusive if it did happen, would make more sense if he was a convention exclusive but they usually use smaller mp's for that purple.

3 reasons:
1: Oil prices are higher, thus plastic prices are higher, which leads to...

2: ..The companies are cheap fucks. Thats all there is to it. They could easily give us higher quality for the same price, but those fractions of a cent per unit are more important to them.

3: Walmart. Walmart wants things are certain prices. If you don't supply them at those prices, you don't get shelf space. Not getting shelf space at Walmart is a death sentence. So rather than Hasbro change up prices just a bit one character who may need a bit more plastic or paint than the rest, they just can't do that because Walmart will drop them and give no fucks.

And i was waiting for repolabel on TR Megatron, but they ended up covering the whole wing in one large peice rather in smaller sections to show the panels details.

I wasn't going to respond yesterday of all days, but there are quite a few Combiners coming after Power of the Primes.

Hasbro will wrap up most of the US G1 era with PotP so the series after that will be a homage to the Japanese line. They didn't hint at Star Saber and Deathsaurus for nothing.

They're bringing back MicroMasters as blind bags at some point as well. Takara has almost every original mold. Sadly, they don't have the bases like Countdown. Hasbro can use Kre O for MicroMasters Bases tho, if they decide to expand that line into boxed sets.

Since Hasbro decided to move Rescue Bots to YouTube next season, they're going to gauge the advertising revenue from that. They own all three Takara TFG1 shows, so they might be able to realistically finance American voice dubbing for them on YouTube. Having Victory in English at the same time as the toys are out will be nothing but a benefit to the Generations line. PotP is going to run 18 months, so it's so either can look into for a while yet before making the call.

If that all does well, we might see them add a Zone series to support the MicroMasters toys.

Victory would benefit from an english dub since its much faster paced than the preceding series, that said maybe (and most likely) the weeb in me is having a hissy fit, but I see the series in subs as "just fine" as they are.

Being a fan of subtitles with japanese voice actors isn't such a minuscule thing anymore, and it helps to better embrace the japanese roots of transformers...that said if the shows themselves don't have too many alterations made both in script and animation I'll be content.

Like, the middle fingers they used alot, I laughed when I saw the "translators notes" about them but I'll be pissed if they turn those into fist.

There's nothing here that was the already out there in the world officially from Hasbro, except for the English language dub of Victory. And everyone also knew that was only a matter of time.

YouTube doesn't have BS&P to answer to. Short of any swearing, there's nothing that Hasbro isn't going to be comfortable with just translating and releasing unedited.

The DVD sales will be a great extra revenue stream for them too.

As for the Japanese roots, almost every part of the early series was created by Jim Shooter and Bob Budiansky. Takara designed the toys, but the heart if the series was from Marvel Comics. Diaclone and Microman were soundly rejected by Japanese children and (hilariously) considered knock offs of "real" Transformers once they imported them back to Japan. There was no heart to the story until Marvel created the storyline and cast bios.

Look at CW. Hasbro has to even out the balance of Autobots-Decepticons to the point where Autobots were the majority of the teams. The molds for Predcons/Terrorcons/Seasons are not conducive for that.

And they are not going to do another TR Decepticons until they have another Autobot.

No, that's the point. It didn't start being about that until Hasui left. Someone post that Hasui quote. I don't have it.

Early MPs used the G1 designs as a starting point, but also incorporated toy designs, and sometimes just plain new ideas to create something that looked good on its own, whereas the last batch of MPs have focused on looking like the cartoon, whether for better or for worse. Usually for worse. This is why we have Lavenderwave, a bland-as-fuck Inferno, and a Megatron with a 20-minute transformation and a boring gray paintjob.

I like G1. I'm just willing to admit that the cartoon looked like shit.

And while I'm indifferent to Beast Wars MPs (the show was awesome, I just don't care for organic animal alt. modes), the show designs looked better than the G1 cartoon did, on screen. The animation models were specifically simplified and streamlined so they would be easier to draw, with no regard to how nice they actually looked, where that wasn't the case in a CG show where every character was modeled once and then posed. If I was going to have something made into a toy 1:1, it would definitely be the consistent, detailed 3D models rather than the hastily drawn, lazily-colored animation cels of 1984.

I like good toys. I don't give a fuck about accuracy.

The only thing wrong is the beast mode head looking to the front. Rotate it so it's looking down, there's even a blue panel that is supposed to be on the top side of the chest that is also on the MP.

As for the TR beastformers, I wouldn't really call ANY of the Titans Return beastformers good, for one a chunky robot mode doesn't feel good to me and that kind of design only hinders posability (it took me like a week to figure out how to properly pose CW Magnus and he is not even that chunky); another thing is that the kibble on the Headmasters beastformers is just shameless but that is by design and I'm not at all lenient with kibble whose integration into the robot mode looks like someone said "fuck it, I want to go have a drink". It will depend if you are okay with having a head just hanging on the back or not, and if you like them enough to justify the quality issues on top of it.

I'm of two minds. I like this for being closer to cartoon Kup with his weird Cybertronian alt. mode and smooth bot mode, but I also love the old one for giving him an earth alt. mode, because I've always liked the idea of Kup as a beat-up, rusty old pickup, especially alongside all the other Autobots with their slick, fancy sports car modes.

Head is definitely too round. The rest is pretty good, but I think it uses a fake chest in robot mode, which is kind of a deal breaker for me.

I doubt poorfags, or animationfags and sour grapes for that matter, are as much of a problem as you are.
I don't know what is your fucking obsession with the headswaps but it just makes you look like a retard.

no, but you getting mad about it sure makes you look like a oc donut steel poorfag showing off his paintless Hasbro Blurr with a Sentinel Prime head.

Only an idiot would own Hasbro Blurr anyway, but I don't understand why you think you are in any position to call anyone names when you get so incensed about what other people do with their toys.

but I'm not. I find it amusing how many poorfags there are in these threads.

Not that Anon, but I gotta admit, I'm pretty dumb. But I also liked paying 1/4th the price of the Takara version for the same mold. I mean, if it had 3P tier engineering I'd gladly toss Takara the $40, or if it were a set to drive the value of it up like UW sets, yeah I could see it being worth it.

Then again I just buy what I like.

Then what's the need to point it out angrily everytime you post?

>>6264191
It's times like these when I'm glad I only collect by mold and not by characters.
Hasbro Brainstorm looks way better.

Kup never had a cybertronian alt mode, he was just the 1980s idea of what trucks in the future would be.

I'm kind of hoping Kup gets a movie appearance one of these days, because at least then he's got a good chance of becoming a beat-up old piece of shit pickup that actually looks like an old piece of shit pickup.

Oh, who am I kidding, he'll be some shiny new 2019 model Ford.

Yeah, I'm really looking forward to seeing LG Kup in like a couple of years.

In the meantime, they might do a Crosshairs or Ironhide repaint if there's more box sets incoming.

>Takara released two different Cheetor toys; one that was the same as the original, red-eyed version, and a running change version that not only has various color tweaks to make him slightly more show-colored (including dark green cheetah eyes, a gold head crest instead of blue, and red robot eyes), but also has a slight mold tweak to keep the beast head pointed forward in robot mode, which has been retained on all versions thereafter, excepting Hasbro's initial release of Tigatron.
