I've been wanting to find the original after getting the MP, actually. A pity that's he's probably inflated to absurdity, even more than the average Diaclone car bot, now that he became an actual character.

Hate to sound like some nostalgiafag, but things were really better in the 80's. Anyone who didn't have a childhood during that decade was basically abused as a child.

Speaking as a dumb millenial, that's exactly why I started collecting G1. Sure, they're all beyond technically outdated as far as proportions and articulation and overall design goes, but man, does it feel nice to have a chunky die-cast figure with stickers that actually work on an aesthetic level. It also makes me miss realistic car modes.

Probably one of those figures without any articulation. Or, if even that would disqualify as a nomination simply because it's not a figure if it has no articulation, it's just a small statue, then G2 Slingshot.

100% made from gold plastic. Objectively the worst because it will break through no fault of it's own, the very material it's made from is cursed.

Look at this fag, I bet you'd love a statue made of dog shit as long as it was painted. Fact is, TR Megs is a good figure in terms of engineering and design. Missing a paint job hurts him, yeah. But he isn't a bad figure. Blitzwing who is the same mold, is great, and looks good too.

I don't like it because of my mini painting days. It's just done WRONG. You're not supposed to panel line in that dark of a black. You're supposed to do it in browns usually, because it will create a more natural look. Especially for machinery like that, where browns would make it look potentially like rust.

Excluding gimmick lines, my vote goes to RotF Arcee. A really cool design idea marred by awful articulation, intrusive panels, a terrible weapon, and a stand that refused to hold properly. She also has to have her spine jut out sideways, which never looks good. She also had a combination gimmick with the two other deluxe bikes, but one never came out, so she's stuck with a useless combiner appendage wasting plastic budget.

But the biggest strike of all was that there was a way better deluxe arcee that came out during the first movie line. She's just a waste in every way.

It's not a molding issue from what I can tell. It is a secure connection. it's just that when going to turn the head it moves backward and makes her head sit oddly far back on her body. Try to get it back in line is difficult. It's just due to the organic shape of her Titan Master in the port, square headed ones don't have the issue.

Jesus, no. Black is best for animation related things because it makes stuff kind of pop like old cartoons or a comic book... Just not to the extent that guy went. Honestly I would say never panel line bare plastic really.

The reason you don't use black is because black creates an unnatural looking effect. It doesn't look "cartoony" either, it just looks bad. You use a dark brown wash for lining because it creates a more natural looking shading effect, because shadows aren't dead, featureless black, they have a gradient to them, and the dark brown wash will make things look more naturally shaded.

Unless you're going with a "bright white 'bot with super clean black panel lining is it's design" sort of thing. Which some robots do, but in that case, it's not for shading, it's part of the characters intrinsic design.

I own every version of Winblade that has come out so far. Takara and Hasbro both. The TR version looks miles better and is sturdier in hand than the T30 one. I actually really like the original, but TR just captures a better aesthetic. Only real issue I have with it is that the backpack ruins the silhouette from the front - especially in pictures making her look flat and stocky.

Honestly he's a pretty underutilized character, even in Victory where he shows up for one episode and then fucks off. It's a shame he got sacrificed to the altar of Deviantart, but that's par for the course with IDW.

Hubcap, who possesses a mastery of electromagnetic signals.
Mindwipe, who has telepathic powers.
Ragnarok, who can bud identical copies of himself.
Skids, who can quickly perfect any new skill he wants to. Later underwent a stress induced secondary mutation, the effect of which is unknown.
Skywarp, who can teleport.
Soundwave, who has hearing so strong he can pick up thoughts.
Tailgate, who suffered a stress related mutation and developed enhanced strength, speed, and durability.
Thundercracker, who can create super-loud sonic booms.
Trailbreaker, who can generate forcefields.

Milne (idk how to spell his name) designed IDW Saber didn't he? He probably tried to get more of the Japanese super robot aesthetic put into him. Like Star Saber already had a lot of Gundam visual elements (same designer) but he was still relatively simple.

I would like to see how Flame Toys executes his toy, though, it really interests me as a chogokin collector.

I know a lot of TF fans are turned off by his design and that he's very super robot in that aspect. He really is Okawara's mix of Gundam and Diaclone, but it does hit a soft spot in me. Plus, the fact that he's the Brave granddaddy.

I guess I am in the minority that isn't completely turned off by non-transforming toys but it's more of that fact thatI never display my TFs in their alt modes. Though he does fit in more with my non-TFs/80s super robots than actual TFs.

Maybe because people revile Beast Machines so much that they forget it had a toyline that was almost as bad as the show.
Appropriately, both had good ideas that were ruined by poor execution (maximals had cool show designs, Cybertron being at a crossroads between preserving its technological origins without freedom and an uncertain techno-organic future, those archives of the GEEWUN-era, vehicons, that oracle thingy) and bad ideas (that oracle thingy, nonsensical environmentalism, clear plastic everywhere, random time skip, "I fucking hate scalefags so much" t. Beast Machines toy developing department) that interfered with everything.

Not as many as Roberts that's for sure.
Just going by the characters, you have Windblade, Tarn, Whirl, Swerve, Star Saber, all who feel dragged straight from a fanfiction. Then there's the vague worldbuilding so poor writers don't have to put effort into developing anything. Then you have the weird obsession with shipping, and the misplaced political agendas.
It was inoffensive at best when they were on Earth but everything after the story goes back to Cybertron is like a fever dream, or LSOTW.

it's okay, you can spend literally half the current Amazon price of the toy on Toyhax sheets.

You will only use half of them because those holo-reflective ones are hideous, and so many will be cut too big to fit their intended spot. But you get a Superman emblem for his chest for... no reason.

It's one thing half their stickers are shitty fan art you'll never put on the toy, but when their cut marks make the sticker too big to fit a certain spot and no one calls them out for this, then it's proof 99% of heir customers are fanboys who don't want to admit they overpay for crap.

And when was the last time they actually lived up to the "rreprolabels" name and made reproduction labels for old toys? I can get needless fan art for new toys but not G2 Megatron replacements? Fuck you, Aaron Black.

My main beef with toyhax. no matter what set you look at, for every one sticker that would fit nicely over some molded detail on a toy, there's an entire god damn seperate sheet of stickers intended to cover every square inch of a figure with foil and tacky colors.

The toyhax set for Fortmax is nice-looking, but I aint droppin 40$ for a bunch of sticker sheets I'll never use.

Why isn't this fuckwad ever mentioned when talking about terrible figures? The Scouts were some of my favorite things about RotF and I was totally hyped for this guy just for how creative both the robot and alt-mode designs were, and god, what a disappointment. The body design itself is already pretty bad, filled with different tones of color for each part that don't match with each other and the fact that his chest is essentially a black rectangle, but what completely ruins this figure has to be the legs: they're a fucking entrailed mess that's constantly popping off of the sockets, and the sockets have a horrible tendency to crack, which means that, after maybe transforming him just once, it is essentially impossible to have him properly standing up in robot mode since his weakened legs stop having a strong enough support to hold his own weight.

So instead of making a character interesting by putting him with other characters and in interesting situations that push his altruism, it's better to just make him a different character? Why not expand on how Deathsaurus is his brother and the conflicts he feels from that?

I never watched Star Saber's show, but I am against just mindlessly adding and subtracting traits from characters so you don't have to make your stories interesting. At least have the decency to make it an obviously different universe like a cripton of other media.

Who even cares, though? The Transformers universe is so fucking massive. The fact that fans keep believing that EVERY character needs to get completely developed enough to set a whole story around them is kind of absurd. Star Saber has made all of two fucking appearances, and he served his purpose as it needed to be. You're basically complaining that he didn't get a whole series to himself when that was never going to happen anyway, so why tease at a level of character development that they don't have the time or space for? They're basically already doing that with Optimus Prime in his own book, and more or less for the past 7 years. Retreading it with Star Saber would be so pointless.

And if at some point in the future, some writer decides they want to tackle Star Saber from the ground up in some kind of Victory-centric comic, well then, rectons are a thing.

Subjective as fuck. Especially that hot-slab-of-nothing alt. mode.

Eh. Scrawny as hell with a lot of kibble. In fact, looks like a shell-former.
>actual transparent cockpit pieces
We just came off Titans Return where not only was this standard, but the cockpits served a purpose, so I'm not impressed
>no visible hollow parts
This is just one of those things that has been memed into being synonymous with "quality" somehow, isn't it? I'm not bothered by some hollow parts as long as a figure is great, otherwise, but now having hollow parts can't somehow automatically propel a figure to being considered good when it's hot garbage otherwise. And that shin-kibble is worse than almost any hollow part.
>well-painted all around
We don't know that. This is still pretty early in the production lifecycle. Just going by these renders proves nothing about the quality of the paintjob.

Why even bother with Hasbro? The only way to give all the Dinobots weapons is to buy 2 extra gun users, and 3 extra Snarls so you can pass his larger sword to Grimlock, Slag, and Sludge.

Damn Moonracer looks amazing! We've come so far from combiner wars engineering. Glad we have standardized line gimmicks with the way Combiners and Headmasters work going forward now. The engineering will only improve now that they've laid the ground work.

Elitas combiner torso looks like it isn't fully in torso mode. There are open panels and looks like the wings on the torso may not stay like that completely. We'll have to wait and see I guess.
