Does this thing remind anyone else of a Bohrok’s Krana?
It just gives me a lot of Bonkle vibes in general.

i think you're missing the point. the point is he makes one anyway, then sees he's been bamboozled. his whole "people always go to the catalog" argument is shattered because evidently HE didn't go to the catalog. Then the one he made can be deleted as it is now objectively superfluous, and he can get banned.
we don't link the new one because we don't intend to use it yet. because we are sane. if we linked it right away, he'd just start samefagging in it to drum up more discussion, and we'd be in that same mess of multiple active threads. and/or he'd start making them earlier and earlier.

It's a cheap part that requires owning the retail toy to even use. How does it hurt Hasbro? It's nothing compared to customizers that want hundreds for their weathered beaten-up ugly paint jobs, you just know they don't have permission to sell anything. Japanese customizers have been arrested for that shit.

Hell if you make enough profit, it doesn't even matter if everything you're doing is legal, they're going to try to bust you anyway. making 3d printed replacement parts for toys is supposed to be a friendly service..

it's because it's not like these people are just using a 3d scanner to put the figure into the computer. They actually have to remodel it.
That's part of the reason the first wave of walmart reissues were so expensive. Soundwave's mold was too damaged to use. They had to recreate it in 3D software. Same with some of Optimus' parts. The newer stuff can be a little cheaper because they still have the molds for them.

for amateurs (the bulk of people who sell 3d models) you're talking about at least a full 8 hour work day, if not a 40 hour work week, and then time and resources to do test prints to make sure you laid everything out correctly for printing.
That's not exactly cheap.

The more ethical thing to do though would be to have a patreon where people donate to you for access to files that you don't charge for. They're just paying to make sure you keep making shit.

Titans Return had four characters with marine vehicle altmodes (five if you count Topspin as """amphibious"""), but I passed on them because either already having a Seaspray, Broadside looking bad, and the other two being box-set only that didn't really have a strong likeness. Then Power of the Primes and War For Cybertron have 0, even though there were 3 just among Micromasters in G1. Now I feel guilty over not buying them.

that's a very, very different thing, because it's someone reproducing a digital sound that was engineered as a digital sound.
It's not the same as taking a physical product and trying to recreate it from scratch in a digital form.

i don't think the processes are all that different. you use a program, you do stuff in it with your brain and a mouse.. you get a file you can distribute to others for free. they have to provide their own speakers / 3d printers
i dont judge people who paywall their drawings, but I could never do it myself.
Now if you wanted a specific part that didn't exist, you would pay someone else to CAD it up for you, yeah. that's a commission.. you could commission a song remix, absolutely. but it's a little odd charging for access to a digital file you made of your own volition. it'd be weird to make art and then go "i have completed this art, please buy it from me" .. you typically only see that in like a biiiig ol whole comic thing. a product you've made it into.

SS86 Arcee's retooled parts all look worse than the T30 version. Reading the designer praise every new shitty part is painful, too, like we're supposed to asspat him for trying. The pelvis looks boxy, the new legs have spikes coming off the heel spurs, the new car back isn't in any way improved or less bulky. The extra weapons are likely gutted for "budget".

I've done both
the process is VERY different, and more particularly, there's material costs involved in the production of 3d printer files typically.
Whereas for a midi file, it's just the software cost and labor. Meaning after the startup cost, it's JUST labor (well and the tiny amount of electricity used to operate a computer)
But for a 3d printer file, you have to test print to see if it's actually going to work the way you anticipate, and to post images so people would be willing to pay you for such things.

But the MAIN point, is the copyright infringement is far, far more actionable with a midi since you are attempting to recreate the exact original item in a compatible format.

3d print files for toy parts are A) often not recreating the *exact* copy B) when it is an exact copy of the design, it is still merely a file, leaving it up to the individual user to try to figure out what the best plastic to use is, and what settings to use to make it easier, and then of course they have to sand it down and paint it to get it to match. So it's less legally actionable because it's much further from the original item than a midi file.

These are REALLY weird complaints. It's like you don't have the t30 and are just guessing about what parts are "worse" than the previous one.
t30's feet are the biggest flaw in the entire toy, it falls over almost as easily as windblade.
The new car back is definitely an improvement in the fact that it actually looks like arcee's car mode.

I got that Mario from a gift shop at the top of Mount Washington when I was like 5 years old and it's never left my posession since.

I'm surprised to hear this about the feet, on Nightbird I was pleasantly surprised at how stable she feels even in extreme poses. I'm not convinced the additional spurs were necessary, though it wouldn't be super challenging to shave off I guess .

I wonder if there's any VF-1S that come as big as Skyfire? It'd certainly be the better option than trying to pretend a big fat Floro Dery robot is a Macross toy. This one is apparently around 11 or 12 inches, so it puts him taller than MP10 but not by much.

There's a reason for the details on his mouthplate though
His face has various details that change based on the medium. Some are vertical lines, some are kind of slanted, some are absent entirely
and that's all just in G1. Sometimes it changed from episode to episode.
the "ribs" you mention are supposed to be like vents, and the main reason is to differentiate him from the numerous other face-plated TFs.

True, but when I was bastardizing that 1984 quote into an internet culture reference, I decided to refer to a female as “simp” is more commonly used when referring to males “simping” on some girl.

These are the considerations one must take into account when attempting moderate-level shitposting.

They were made for the Japanese market first, so they probably kept the names in that instance because it was easier to deal with, same for Star Convoy. Meanwhile, the BWII seacons were only a thing in Japan, so they didn't have western names.

Fun fact: because your limbs half-hazardly evolved out of the spines of fish fins, you’re lower arms and legs are composed of two bones held together with the biological equivalent to duct-tape, instead of being just a straight forward series of ball joints.
This means it relatively easy if you fall, twist, or pull in a sufficiently wrong way to tear right through the cartilage and ligaments holding those two bone together. My dad had this happen to him a few years back and it apparently sucked balls and took a long-ass time to heal.

So remember, don’t rely on evolution to design your body for you, evolution is a lazy and often very dumb idio-savant of an engineer.

I swear plans and blueprints for that Armada Optimus prototype better still be in their cabinets or something waiting to be revisited and retuned for an eventual Commander Class release. It certainly won't be the same as the prototype but I hope it builds on it for god knows how long it may have been.

Which didn't convince me that much seeing as you could make out several details of the super mode in the toy as separate parts, not just crap thrown there so it looks correct. It also had way too much going on to say that it couldn't at least turn into a truck. They only thing I believe is that they didn't work on the trailer at the time, only because they didn't even bother showing it off.

You referring to that comment by Mark right? I think that's bullshit, most likely a contractual obligation considering he's an employee and is most likely deep within the R&D team. That prototype clearly had joints, greebles, seamlines that indicate where a part would split apart for the transformation. There is no way it is a single pre-posed statue.

Same way our current ones do, have them run along and wrap around the outside of your bones.
I wasn’t suggesting a enclosed ball-joint, or for you to have a full range of of motion or free rotation, it would still be constrained by the surrounding muscles and connecting tendons. I was just saying that instead of forming a multi-axis open-pivot from a kluging of 3-4 separate bones meeting together, the same joint could be achieved with just two better shaped bones meeting together, with a bit more play in side-to-side horizontal pivoting so it can occur in the ankle rathe than occurring as torsion throughout the entire lower limb.
Basically something more akin to how your shoulder and hip joints work.

those 2 bones are what allows wrist and ankle movement. Note how the humerus, being one solid bone, is attached on both ends to multiple bones. That's what allows the movement to happen.

You’ve never seen the results of evolutionary optimization programs have you?

They apply the same principles as the theory of evolution: randomized iterative change, selected and pruned for fitness, performed repeatedly over a great number of cycles, but applied to code or engineering instead of organic life, with the process occurring as super-accelerated computer simulations instead of physically.

The results are often similarly weird, unexpected, or counterintuitive, sometimes to the point of literal incomprehensibility, but nonetheless are uncannily good and efficient at doing whatever it was they were being selected for.

It’s a pretty hard proof that blind selection towards fitness is fully capable of generating complexity and ingenious designs without the requirement of any active input from a conscious designer. Quite a few recent inventions and innovations were created in part or even mostly by using those processes.

Not exactly
It's december 2020, and legacy was SUPPOSED to start in november 2021. From various leaks we see the factories start producing the toys about 3 months in advance, which means the line had to be done being designed by the end of July. Consider that december was the mid point of this particular design it's safe to assume one or two months of development before that.
9 or 10 months for a whole year of toys isn't a long design time, honestly.
They're just designed far enough ahead that they can make adjustments if needed.

Most theologies view the mortal realm as a sort of proving ground, with the terrible aspects of life being there to test us and push us to improve.
Even theologies that don't have a guiding deity.

Also, the theory of evolution is pretty flawed. Much like the theory of dinosaurs, now 100+ years later we basically don't agree with hardly any of the original ideas, and what we were taught as children is out dated

Random is a myth
Random is just something we haven't figured out the calculus for yet, or the calculus for figuring it out is shielded from the observer in a way that makes it impossible to predict.
Random Number Generation is when you create a sequence of numbers that cannot be reasonably predicted. But if you knew the actual code used to create it, you'd have a faaar higher rate of success than anyone else, which makes it not actually random.

Fair enough.
Not only is this not really the board for this type of argument in the first place,

but frankly the last several years have really highlighted that ‘convincing people of the existence of evolution’ really isn’t at the top of priorities in terms of what forms of widespread science-disbelief pose an actual risk to society.
So I’m pretty comfortable taking a much more ‘live and let live’ towards this stuff.

This isn’t actually particularly true. Most of the core observations and theories are considered as correct currently as they were when they were first accepted. Mostly details and more involved nuances are just added and amended on top of them. (Discovering that a fair amount of Dinos probably had feathers doesn’t actually substantively change much about the fact of their existence and when they were alive.)

>and what we were taught as children is out dated
Honestly a lot of that was already outdated or just flat-out know to be incorrect /at the time they were being taught in the first place/.
Education institutions have a habit of teaching kids grossly simplified down and semi-inaccurate facts, (often out of a desire for it to be easier to teach or less likely to confuse the students) especially when it comes to more peripheral or academic subjects that the kids are unlikely to be directly involved with or use in their futures.

i like that with transformers we get all three possibilities. primus making them miraculously, precursors building them manually, or evolving spontaneously from 'naturally-occurring gears and levers' which is a concept that makes me smile every time I hear it.

With any luck we will get more uses of the core BB mould, because it is a lot of fun. Even as just a repaint G2 BB and Bugbite would be great, but a couple of different heads and boom a whole hive of the lil buggers. i.e: Goldbug head = GB himself, Glyph and Wasp. A CJ head for CJ, Tapout (both Green and Black versions.) Hubcap, Bumble, the Mexican varients, etc...
The alt mode is generic enough in the first place it could work - plus, like I said, it is a lot of fun.

You're probably not old enough to remember the time of rapid development in the field then.
from the late 70s until the mid-90s was an era where they were rapidly altering their understanding of various species, and so you got some pretty drastic changes in their representation in media as a result.
I remember it all happening in real time.

Not that guy but I remember this cool guy having dinner with my family when I was like 4 or 5, showing me a picture of a stegosaurus and comparing it to one on my cup.. asking if I could tell the dif, I couldn't, then he pointed out one had the tail erect while the other was dragging it
i just thought those were different poses it could pull, yknow, posture. but that was about that time, '89-'90, when that was really being pointed out a lot.. lots of books still had the dragging tails upright theropods, toys usually did, but they were starting to update some art.
i'm sure before i die they'll change their mind again, maybe say they held them straight upright like antennas. as far as toys go, I like both. the kaiju mode is towering, but the horizontal posture is so sleek and speedy..

Elemental powers come up in Masterforce in a weird way. Basically, characters use up energy from different sources, Space, Earth and inner energy from Humans which is used for super attacks that can shoot out lighting, wind, rocks or water. The thing is, these super attacks aren't used all that often, in fact, the only character that used them regularly was Ginrai. The rest of the cast used these powers occasionally, or in some cases, once (the other Autobot Godmasters not named Ginrai). The weird thing about the show is that it's implied that humans should be able to use their own energy as a power up, but this only happens when the kids are used to ride Godbomber, they never use this while riding their transtectors.

what are you talking about?
Are you confusing how the first 2 years of TFs were repaints and retools of older toys to assuming that's what they did after the movie?
Also are you assuming that because the designers were in japan that the toys were produced there?
It was a toyline first, the comics, cartoons, etc all came after. Well, I think the comics technically released a month before the toys hit the stores, but whatever.
Season 4 (or alternatively, the headmasters cartoon) came out in the SUMMER of 87. The toys had already been on the shelf by then

When you get him stood up he looks better. This was the mode that was given the attention and not forced to flounder.

He's a good enough looking Optimus. A little extra zazz below the knees but other than that it's faithful.
He's got some seat behind his windshield that any modern Optimus would be using the space for a Matrix. But Classics keep the space free for any pretend people you might want in there.

The face on mine is a little scuffed from transforming so many times Also I'm going to pretend those dots above his eyes are vulcans.

>>9832118
I forgot about Robotmasters. I was thinking it was nothing until MP-01 then right to Classics.

Not to mention Japan didn't even have a transformers cartoon AT ALL until a year after the US.

https://web.archive.org/web/20100724062955/http://www.ex.org/ex/3.4/09-feature_akitaka2.html
EX: How did you get started in the anime industry?

AM: Before I knew it, I was just in. My first job was working at Sunrise. Square came to Sunrise asking to design a game called CRUISE CHASER BLASTY for the NEC PC.
A lot of fans may not know this, and I am not credited for it, but I did a lot of designs for TRANSFORMER toys. I was a toy designer at Takara and Bandai.

EX: Really? Which ones did you design?

AM: I did a lot of designs that were never implemented. One of the ones I did that got used was Predaking.

EX: I remember that one. That was the one with the bull, lion, mountain lion, rhino, and eagle that turned into one big robot, right?

AM: Exactly. You know how there's a lion head on his chest? Well, in Japan at the same time as Predaking came out, there was a robot toy called Dartanius with a lion head on its chest that was manufactured by Bandai. When Predaking came out, Bandai said, "You stole our idea" and Takara got sued. So Bandai was looking for the designer and after they found me, they took me into their offices and offered me a job. I worked at Bandai for about a year.

Japanese designer.

Most well known feature of this toy is its inclusion of Optimus Prime's iconic Spinning Tornado Super Punch
Just push the button on his back and watch him go!

When locked in place the spinning can sort of be used as a torso twist for posing, since Prime lacks a regular waist swivel.
All the other regular articulation is there. He's just missing the ankles and wrists that these fancy modern toys have.

Do you think Floro Dery was an american designer? No he was phillipino.
Wait

Do you think companies didn't work remotely back then? Hasbro would have phone calls to Takara to sort stuff out, and fax paperwork back and forth. This is how businesses operated back in the 80s.

in parts of europe at the time they hate taken a somewhat different lore. You have to remember, mythos change with the area and era as well.
But gnomes in particular were known for wearing red hats and having white beards, a la papa smurf.
Also elves in that area were closer to what we think of as sprites

idunno, man. The whiners are clearly there to help the agenda of the people with power.
You can't even have references to the nazis without their express permission because they don't want to risk people to be motivated by anything transcendental, even if nazism was a corrupted version of the Volkisch Movement; and they don't want you to have a gun Megatron because it's part of the push to disarm the only country where an actually organic uprising against a tyrannical and corrupt government is still a remote possibility.
I want these niggers and their enablers in mass graves but their tendrils are fucking everywhere. I'm still removing the ones implanted in me through culture and I bet part of you thinks those old germans were kooks for trying to recover their spiritual links to their own pre-christian culture.

Hes more popular than Skylynx, so most people got him early leaving fewer copies for late buyers.

Also, he might've been produced in smaller numbers being the 1st commander test.

Transformers Generations Titans Return Blurr

Yes I know this is the objectively worse version. Get over it.

Since this is American Blurr the paint scheme is a little plain. The central cone and windshield are paint but the other 85% of the vehicle is barren. Save for the two front points and the dongle on top.

He does look like Blurr though, and I want to say this is the first toy to try to recreate this specific look since the original. This toy is unmistakably Blurr.

The most important feature, however, Blurr has in spades. This son of a bitch can *roll*.
He glides across my desk on three dinky castors with no issue at all. A really fun sci-fi car toy.

Transformation is lacking the clever move Scrouge had. The driver seat hollow space is largely unused. he just has the driver's seat fold a bit to make his bellybutton.

Blurr's blue come across way more blue in these pictures than it is. In hand he's more of a dark turquoise sort of colour. Not the sort of true blue Scourge is.
Speaking of, I thought Scourge's little pop-up laser was unique among Headmasters, but Blurr has his head dongle as well. So I'll just take back whatever comments I made the other day.

The front end of Blurr's vehicle, aka 50% of the paint budget,flips upside down to be a toboggan for headmasters.

Well if his shield didn't do it then his goofy wizard sleeve probably would have.

Blurr can do some decent posing.
Even if his giant hooves are static he still has ball joints in his shoulders, hips, and neck.
Hinges at the knees and elbows
Swivels at the biceps, thighs, waist and wrists.

Blurr isn't a really fancy toy but he and the rest of the first wave of TR were something of a genuine relief after CW

I feel like the Hasbro version would be more tolerable if the blue plastic wasn't so oddly...soapy looking. Also if there was just a bit of colour breakup. The base sculpt is great though, definitely prefer it to the SS86.

it's complicated, but no, there's no particular thing about those light frequencies that makes them special. there aren't special isolated islands of "these work well in mixing" or anything, we just picked three. possibly because they're colors that we're very good at nailing down (anything slightly off from them no longer reads as red or yellow.. blue is kinda on its own)

the real trickiest thing to learn, that makes color shit less confusing, is that there is no separate mixing system for additive and subtractive. it's the same. ~it's just that adding makes it brighter and subtracting makes it darker~
'red and green light makes yellow' seems weird but... red and green paint make -dark yellow paint- we just think of it as its own separate nebulous concept 'brown'

I suppose it doesn't really matter anyway, the power of colors seems to me to be the relationships and intervals between them, like in the same way that music is the beautiful harmonious dance between different notes and rhythms, but not the notes themselves. Can you transpose visual art in the same way you can play a song in a different key?

perfectly well put. just like music, you can, right up until you can't. colors even have the same kinda octave system, except they're locked into it. there's no "red in a higher key" after you get through blue and indigo... so if you make a nice picture, maybe something where a blue color has a gradient to green on one side and purple on the other, and hit the hue slider, it'll look great in either direction until suddenly one of those parts jumps out way too far and stops looking like a nice gradient.

Oh ok ok, this is fascinating stuff. So with your example of "brown" you're implying that that color is one made of more fundamental building block colors, and red or blue or yellow can't be broken down to constituent parts in the same way because they have a specific measurable frequency and the rest of the spectrum is mixing those frequencies?

actually no, I was specifically saying that's not true, but rather that, in our minds, the way we learn colors, 'red' and 'yellow' we learn very narrow, specific definitions. if you skew even slightly off from yellow, it stops being yellow and becomes orange or green... part of it is which frequencies our eyes are sensitive to ("green" is a HUGE range) but part of it is language and just how we're raised.

but there is such a thing as colors that are (currently, but not exclusively) being projected by a single frequency that can't be broken down into a mixture of others (which you could also do if you wanted, but just for example), and magenta isn't capable of being one of those.

This upper face helmet definitely feels like it’s reminding me of some character or specific type of faceless mook from some media, but I cannot for the life of me recall what.

The closest I can think of is maybe Alexandria from the Webserial Worm, but that’s just fanartist depictions of the description from the text, and I feel like it was from some more mainstream visual media source instead.

it's just kind of a popular thing with nu-anime, featureless helmets with side bolts and a pointed bottom kinda like the helm of Nabu..

actually as much as I'm bashing newer anime shit like Nier and such, I think the first ones to pull off this look were the angel-type digimon.

Huh, you know, I think there’s a pretty decent chance it actually was either Justimon or one of the Angemons who he was reminding me of.
Mystery probably solved I guess.

faceplates are an interesting thing in transformers. I'm not sure I've really seen a retracting one that I like very much. Primal's worked for me a little, but it was weird that its retracted form was just.. upper and lower 'bandages'
