Guess the chest pieces are just designed to attach? So much for my hopes of it fixing the issue he has with the panels going flush.

Hadn't actually thought of that before, is it much more expensive to mold things out of nylon? I guess I could see it being a more difficult process to injection mold a more durable material than traditional plastics into the intricate shapes needed for small figures.

As someone who has 44 it has a good robot mode, just getting to it is a pain. Super articulate robot mode, just a time consuming thing to transform. Maybe the ko will be better in that factor just because it wont be coated in paint.

The material cost is already higher than the usual ABS. It doesn't flow as well as either so that's why you often see mold flash and such on MS' stuff. What makes it most problematic for toy makers is that Nylon is hard to paint. Whatever paint they are using is probably the extra special, cancer-inducing stuff. You can also tell they have a limited selection of paint colors.

Seriously, MS' full-nylon use is overkill but I wish 3Ps would use it more as a healthy ratio of the parts like what Hasbro does. It would certainly help with the IF breaky-snappy twig joints.

Yeah for the most part paint isn't much of an issue on their stuff, but I do know that the blue paint they use on their Ultra Magnus chips off the white plastic pretty easily. Thankfully it isn't really a problem except for where the shoulder missiles plug in in bot mode.

All XTB does lately is Stunticons, and rerelease old molds whenever Fanstoys announces their version. They are the quintessential shelf filler, they look good(actually I prefer Arkose to fanstoys Beachcomber), but the engineering is weak.

MMC is the perennial of the 3P world, if the ever go out things are truly in trouble. I think they'll survive if only because they have probably the best engineer in the game(Alex Kubalsky, ironically a former Takara employee.)

MT's death is exaggerated. They move at a glacier's pace but they still release figures, just that no one seems to want them. I suspect they're designers who work for other JP companies (like Bandai, Sentinel, or even Takara) that periodically come together to release new product. Most 3Ps probably don't operate like offices or anything, just 4-10 guys working with factories.

What are some 3p figures that have really solid robot modes? I want something that kind of has the action figure feel, something that isn't fragile or fiddly in bot mode. Something you can play with without stuff coming undone. I don't even care if alt mode is weaker for a solid bot mode. I basically want an action figure that I can flip back and forth between modes.

If you're thinking in the sense of a 3P figure that's so clean and solid in robot mode you might forget it can even transform, there's a few things to consider I guess. MMC's Swindle is pretty solid and articulate, Fanstoys Stunticons so far have all been really clean and solid in bot mode, Magic Square's Optimus Prime is a great one too (though the hip articulation is fiddly so your mileage may vary on that one).

That's just what I can name offhand/see what I left on top of my dresser that I've been fiddling with lately.

Might finally get this, been in the back of my mind for awhile but I kept getting other stuff. Anyone know if the Legendary Toys KO version just as good or should I go with the original? Also are Buster Skywing or Divine Shooter any good? Seems kinda cool to have them to augment it.

Anonymous

Quoted By:

>>8373555
Divine Shooter is designed for their Thunder Manus (PMOP), so he won't do anything in the way of augmenting Striker.

Skywing is fine, but perhaps serves better as a separate figure than for its combination. He's doesn't have all the best hardware, but at least has some to speak of.

For my Noir + Stealthwing there is only one major negative issue; but overall it comes off as a mode that the base figure wasn't precisely designed around, but they were able to make it at least functional. That major issue is the fact that you're left with an incomplete skeleton of a figure that is of no use after stripping him of all those parts. I've more or less let that slide, because it allows Noir to become something of an adversary to "take on" the combo of my Striker + Delta Manus.

As for the initial question, I can't say anything to it, and can only recommend to search out any comparison reviews people may have done (either on YT or TFW).

Works well enough, assuming the customizer doesn't intend to ever transform it because there's no way it looks like a spider if you do that.

Yeah, I'm almost certain it was a PSX thing, which is probably why it didn't work. I don't think PSX is actually a good channel for this sort of thing because it just doesn't have the wider appeal some other stores do.

I saw that some anon had posted that Nova X-Mortis upgrade for the Combiner Wars White Prime months back, how is that thing?

The extras and colors are cool as fuck but how does it look from behind and how well attached is the outer part to the inner bot, especially the head. Is it actually attachable like an alt-head or only loosely tied to core body? Fans are usually making photos of him in front view so these things are hard to see/tell.

I've been out of the 3rd party game for a while. What's the best CHUG scaled Springer? I'm starting a Neo G1 collection and my TF 86 Movie shelf needs a decent Springer. Cant use Generations Springer because I'm using Could Rodimus and my OCD won't let me use the same mold for those two characters. Earthrise looks cool, but I hate the shit smeared battle damaged look.

All the 3rd party options look to be MP scaled.

I really hate how Funpub era botcon colors all seemed to emphasize gaudy saturated colors, even when the originals clearly didn't have such obnoxious colors. Hate the subsection of the fandom that reveals in the obnoxious colors of late G1/G2 while not understanding what worked; like they intentionally want to emphasize the color being bright and mismatched.To the point they revise history to make it seem everything was that way, and you're "no fun" if you dislike it.

(I'm sure you can find paint removal guides for Siege figures using nail polish remover or something because that was a common thing people wanted to do.)

I've been looking for a small scorponok too. There's also the Mastermade one that's close to energon Scorponok in height but I have a hard time convincing myself to get it.
>it needs DLC for the normal-sized, non-headmaster head
>very liberal redesign
>but the transformations are uninspired and annoying despite not following the material
>there are batches with squeaky joints and floppy legs
I also already have Energon Scorponok and MM's seems to fill the same niche it does (small non-g1aesthetic, non-headmaster scorponok)

There's also the possibility of MFT making a Leader class or Voyager Scorponok since they've been making Legends-scale headmasters. But they already have a big backlog so who knows when that will happen.

Their earliest work that they were (in)famous for worldwide was Astroplan back in 2010, an obvious ripoff of Macross Frontier with some Gundam 00 mixed-in. After that they made 3 Brave/Transformers "inspired" cartoons. They've since shifted to legit OC Chinese animation.

Maybe less fear of Hasbro, and more the fact that BFB started this and Magic Henshin as two versions of the idea of transforming anime girls. One project was a more traditional 3P Hasbro character, the other became Magic Henshin and with Magic Henshin really gaining attention to the point of getting official Japanese distribution, BFB probably wants to not be seen as just one of those toy companies making unlicensed Hasbro characters and would like you to judge Nicee as her own thing that's separate from Arcee, even though fans will recognize her as an Arcee. We've never seen a colored Nicee sample with the Arcee-style head. (The G1 head can be seen on the ground here, in a July photo of what's probably a production sample, so it does still exist. Not sure if this photoshoot is what you were referring to, but this is it's most recent appearance.)

Non-transforming TFs like the kuro kara kuris have more freedom regarding the bot mode and also want to make up for the lack of an altmode so they are highly detailed, and this is a bigass statue. It's natural liking such things, otherwise we wouldn't appreciate cathedrals or Greek statues.
It also looks especially good with guys like Tarn due to the colors and rather complex desgin he has.

I wish we would see him in a cgi movie once, looking like that Azure Sea version.

Milne always designs the altmodes at the same time he does the botmode so he can get the kibble to match properly, he's said before he tries to always think of things as if they were physically able to transform. He just forgot to post the altmode art for Megs until much later on.

Makes sense, it's a good way to work with bots, otherwise you get untransformable ones and the whole altmode will be slapped into some backpack or something.
Makes me wonder if he ever made an altmode for Tyrest, since he drew him and knows what he transforms to but he never uploaded the altmode sketch for him, which he did for Pharma, Sunder and others.

They’ve been pretty heavily suggesting it. People on TFW have expressed doubts that it could have fully articulated hands at that scale, and MMC employees keep responding with “but what if it could...”

Plus the hands on this figure are proportionally pretty large, so they’re probably MP sized even if the body is CHUG/Reformatted

Around 7.5 Inches tall according to MMC twatter crew. For reference, that's about the size of Tarn/Kultur and Megatron/Tyrantron.

They're probably going to look like shit next to each other because of the proportional differences in the older figures and their babby mitts.

We've been teased with with a Nicee-style Windblade, and we know that Magic Henshin has at least the black panther girl prototyped, so I'm guessing they'll coexist as long as they both do decently, with bigger, more complex Nicee type figures spread between smaller, simpler Magic Henshins.
BFB does seem to be more proud of Magic Henshin, which is fair enough considering it's their own OCs. We have seen art for Magic Henshin style Optimus and Ultra Magnus, but only time will tell if they actually make them, or if they get set aside in favor of continuing original designs instead of bringing Hasbro characters into the line.
There's also a bunch of LAS' Bird/Binary mecha designs in the works that should come out eventually, I imagine we'll see some progress there after the first wave of Magic Henshin is released.

This looks like it's just two hinges instead of balljoints on both ends of the neck, which is the optimal way to do it but you never see on transformers. Everything else looks great though, it's even got actual paint which is unusual for MMC. I'm way more hyped than I should be for optimus #155467.

New-ish collector here,

Is there a G1 style Megatron that would fit in well with my WFC collection? I'm not terribly satisfied with Siege Megs and the Earthrise version doesn't look much better.

Closest I can think of is Toyworld Hegemon. He's a Sorta Classicsesque Megatron that turns into a gun and is roughly scaled for them too. Unfortunately there's not many figures that try to fit in with the CHUG scene, so the better Megatrons are more MP styled, thus bigger and more cartoony than you maybe okay with.

If you just want a solid 3p Megatron, Maketoys Despotron is a good fun toy regardless of aesthetics.

Almost certainly the second. I've ordered from Planet Steel Express for the occasional exclusive, but there's not a lot of incentive to order there. A lot of people are comfortable with the US based stores, where you don't have to deal with overseas shipping, while stores like ShowZ probably offer lower prices if you want to order from China.

Seen their guys hanging out in there to chat with the owner as well, so it wouldn't suprise me at all. You only really need to know factories and have contacts to get shit built, not actually live in china.

Haven't had any issues on mine and I like him well enough. Transforming to dragon mode is a bit of a pain in the dick but going to bot mode is pretty easy and straightforward. He's a fun enough little guy but I have a few issues with him. One of the biggest issues is that the dragon arms do not have a place in bot mode. They just straight up hang off his back on these huge panels and the figure basically counts on the wings to obscure that they're back there. Next p is that it's a bit disappointing that the tail isn't attached to the back of the head like it is on the source material (both the original BW design AND the PE figure it ripped its design off from). I get what they were going for and it ultimately helps articulation (it pretty much had to be that way due to the aforementioned arms cluttering up his back) but it sort of detracts from one of the iconic design elements of the character, stupid as it may be. Last, I don't like that what used to be a forearm shield has been moved to be a plate that hangs off of his shoulder. It may just be because it's meant to further go with their pseudo samurai aesthetic but I just think it looked and functioned better as a forearm shield. Also, fair warning, he's a pointy boy and with IF's habit of overly tight joints, prepare to be stabbed a few times. Probably won't draw blood but it will still hurt.

It's not like the other dragon Megatrons handled the dragon forelegs any better, they're just worse on Heat Death because they made him a four-legged dragon.

Crossing arms isn't just an articulation thing, but also requires a chest and forearm design that allows it. Often it is just impossible.

It's less to do with that and more to do with the small scale. PE's Mega Dragon, for instance still has them hanging out back there but they fold in better because they can attach to (proportionately) smaller hinges and still be sturdy but Heat Death needs to have them on this giant panels that also serve to cover up the sides. It doesn't have room to put them on their own dedicated little hinges or anything like that.

I will say that one kinda neat thing you can do with them in bot mode is drape the claws over his shoulders like some armor decoration and it does help make them not look as backpacky but if you don't like how that looks, then you're kinda SOL and just have to put up with the bigger backpack of dragon arms.

Ok, preordered (can always cancel later but at the moment I’m hyped). Really hoping his headlights/pecs can articulate out of the way for those butterfly joints.

Right now there's only Ismenios. MMC are trying to keep on pace to have their D-Zef out for December. But I have Ismenios, and he's very good.

Man I'm confused, does mmc have two Deathsaurus coming out or does D-Zef have parts so you can make him look either comic styled or g1?

TTBOMK, they have two versions planned for him. Planet X, however, does have a separate kit to make him G1 toy.
