Honestly it’s kind of a recursion where Hot Shot took from Bumblebee and Hot Rod originally, then every subsequent Bumblebee has taken from Hot Shot, meaning modern Bumblebee tends to act more like G1 Hot Rod than G1 Bumblebee, especially during the time where Hasbro couldn’t use the name Hot Rod

Jazz's PotP toy had MAGA written under his number in Cybertronian when it was first released before it was caught and reissued without it. It ended up causing some “controversy” later because the SS86 toy has 14 instead of 4, which caused people to jump to the idea that it was referencing the 14 words

>>11712701
this is really growing on me, even though I think the dark blue would have worked better as the main feather color. Kinda reminding me of the red white and blue skittles...
I'd definitely paint over the red parts, and turn the feet yellow (or the beak silver) but... it could be a nice little birb OC.
wouldn't pay more than 13-14 bucks for it, but that'll happen later. Bluebolts or whatever her name was, will have a little sister.

Hot Shot is a nicer upper half than I was expecting.

Won't know until the official bio/blurb comes out, or someone mentions it in a livestream. That being said, it uses the Airazor version of the mold (including her head - that image is a photoshop, as pointed out last thread), so I'm going with "she" until proven otherwise.

Mostly ment in the, people not wanting to admit they or family have it, which make people more likely to avoid treatment out of shame. Particularly for men since most people severely underestimate how common it is among males.
Genuinely “Pro-anorexia”/“anorexia-positive” communities prove that allowing literal any like minded group to form online communities was probably a mistake for the species.

This isn’t a fan frame, this is the original character model scanned and colored based off the color guides given to Toei staff. His wings are supposed to be mostly purple because that’s what his toy has. That’s also why his wings are that way in the Movie. Episodes animated by Akom and the other unknown studio, including Triple Takeover, used outdated character models and colors, resulting in Astrotrain's wing color inconsistency

>Genuinely “Pro-anorexia”/“anorexia-positive” communities prove that allowing literal any like minded group to form online communities was probably a mistake for the species.
You misunderstand. The problem is allowing ONLY those groups to form communities. What you're supposed to do is let EVERYONE do it. That way, the sensible ones drown out the rest, but also no viewpoint is ever 100% accepted nor 100% rejected, which is important, both for humility and for vigilance. this is why the old internet was amazing. No matter how unique you thought you were, or how common, good or bad version of either, you found out you weren't.

There, now the winigs are all purple, they keep changing and thats my point anon

what a retarded way of looking at it
also protoforms are adults in stasis. Cheetor is a kid
and if everyone was constantly pushing him, harassing him, threatening him, and he had nobody like Big Bot to turn to for support, he'd shoot up a school too. and it'd be their fault. They can eat quasars for how they treated the outcast.

Also, I not getting into this any further, but try actually looking into the actual reports of school shooters before their attacks by their teachers and peers.
If that’s all of what was going on, they’d be shooting specific kids, not literally anyone they could find, like pretty much every high profile one does.
Or just read/watch any of the hundreds of pieces covering Columbine.

The kid who was the main mastermind of the Columbine pair was a literal psychopath. There is extensive documentation and evidence of this.
He was a monster who had wanted to hurt and kill people for a significant amount of time, and took the earliest excuse to talk a buddy into helping make good on those desires.

I just got G1 Astrotrain after only having a third party version of him and now I'm realizing like 80% of what went into that insane transformation on the 3P figure is on the original toy. Whoever designed this in the 80s was insane. If given enough resources he could probably make a robot turn into 3 things, 4 things. With enough funding there would be no upper limit.

He barely has any green in the back of the vehicle mode (the show version, at least), so that section should mostly be blue with some bits of green, so it looks awful AND it's still not accurate. I'd take the back being white or silver if it meant we got a better combiner out of it. Hell, the thighs already fucked up the back sections colors already, so adding more white is fine by me.

It's weird - while not as old as the Transformers franchise, MH has still been running strong for over 20 years at least, and has been a huge cultural phenomenon over in Japan (they literally have cafes and a whole section of Universal Studios dedicated to it, among other things). There's also no shortage of monsters that they could use for crossovers, so it's really baffling that A) it took this long just to get a crossover, and B) that the two Rathalos bots are all that came from it.

You have more than 1 year to buy Bruticus piece by piece.
I got Vortext for 27 eros in September. Brawl for 35euros.
Pretty sure the shuttle boy and saleslam jeep will be affordable when they come out.
Onslaught is the only expensive one but i will buy him for Christmas just like i did with the last part of Devastator in December.

Fair, but that's also the only mode I leave him in so I really don't care. The Starscream is also very nice.
I have every DC Decepticon set (plus a stand alone Optimus Prime I got on ebay), and they're all beautiful in person. Photos don't do them justice. It's also aggravating because it shows Hasbro could have made all those figures that nice looking all along, and actively chose not to.

I skipped Siege astrotrain because the shuttle was shit and I wasn't impressed with the robot or the transformation. Also disliked that he came with useless crap to hit the leader price point. I was hyped when I heard the SS86 was going to be a new mold and not a remold/retool.
I will say I like the vehicle modes on this one better. But that robot is ROUGH. Will probably get him (on clearance hopefully) for the more involved transformation.

Takara were on a winning streak with Leaders like Megatronus, Onyx, Megatron, and Soundwave. Why did they completely botch astrotrain? Who decided that more plastic budget should go into the cumstain accessory than the arms and thighs?

Man i can't wait to build Bruticus and make him and Devastator beat the shit out of each other in non stop.
I loved how Skybound portrayed these both combiners as VERY (very) big god-like dumbass giants.
And they used just their brute forse - no guns at all. just fists and stomping.
One of reasons why i don't care about Devastator's gun and never pose him with it. Same will be with Bruticus.
I like how these two dumbasses sometimes forget they are on the same side and start fighting each other like brothers.

I kept seeing this green little guy in these threads.
And for some reason he's in those toy fair photos everywhere (i thought he's old already idk why they keep showing him)
He's just 7 eur on amazon so i ordered him.
I kinda want more Cyberworld toys.
They are simple yet this is the first time i love the designs of "the new transformers line".
I never liked what they were showing as the new transformers design after early 00s.
Maybe it's because they using G1 phylosophy in these new toys.
They kind of look G1 but new.

nothing feminine about painting yourself, that's solidly a male thing
gross as fuck when girls do it. though it's gross when guys do it too. mainly because nails are such a delicate, injurable part of the body.. seeing any dark color on them feels like you hit it with a hammer.
just paint cool stripes on your face or something. put two bars under one eye, give yourself a fuckin Tenchi alien mark on your forehead, something cool like that.

>impossible to get a diagnosis after death.
Yeah, no shit. Because that’s not how diagnosis work. Same as you can’t be diagnosed with Antisocial-Personality-Disorder(formerly: Psych/sociopathy) until someone’s an adult, doesn’t mean they don’t have it, just isn’t something that can be checked or determined clearly enough that they want psychologists attempting it.
Dead people don’t get formally diagnosed for the same reason you can’t formally diagnose someone without direct interaction, you can’t be 100% sure if you’re not dynamically testing their reactions and responses.
It’s like saying no one throughout all of history who died prior to the categorization and invention of the term had socio/psychopathy.
We’ve still got both of the kids own god damn writings regardless, and they both paint a pretty clear picture of their motivations. And as it turns out it really wasn’t just or even primarily because of the buildings.
Tons of people are bullied horrifically during school and never decide to go murder scores of uninvolved random innocent people. Whereas plenty of School shooters experience comparatively minor unpleasant times in school and decide that’s justification enough to go and murder kids they never even knew, many of whom realistically were having the best times in school either.
And that’s not even getting into how many of them had very well documented fascinations with other school shooters and mass-killers long before they decided to carry one out. Fascinations, it’s worth noting, which often centered around the persons notoriety and being remembered for their crimes, rather than any supposed justice or striking back at society.
>>
>>
>>11713827
Reducing all mass school shootings down to “The kid was bullied, so he snapped and took it out on the school” is an overly simplistic narrative that appeals to people because it implicitly puts the blame upon the victims, instead of requiring people to fix and expand the extremely dysfunctional and anemic metal healthcare system and practices,
Because that would be hard, and saying “well people shouldn’t have been mean to that kid if they didn’t want him to kill totally unrelated kids.” is easy.

The one on the right is Alpha Trizer, who is Cheetor thousands of years after Beast Machines, basically being his time's version of Alpha Trion with his connection to Vector Sigma while the one on the right is Leo Prime, a version of Lio Convoy that jumped over to an Aligned timeline after detecting Unicron's energies there (Dark Energon rather than Angolmois Energy)

>Alice and Bob are mean to me and maybe even mildly hurt me. So I’m morally justified in going and killing Charlie, Dave, Eve, Freddy, George, and Hannah. None of who even know me, and likely never so much as heard about what Alice and Bob got up to, and one of whom was also getting bullied by still other kids. This is a reasonable response that I should take no blame or responsibility for.
Are you genuinely retarded or psychologically impaired?
>>11713836
Your blanket attributing to bullying to something which actually analysis of the examples which are actually mass-shootings, versus the incidents were a kid shoots 0-3 people, sometimes including themselves, indicates is actually pretty rarely due to bullying and instead stems from pretty severe, often untreated mental illness. Specifically the kinds of mental illness you get from genetics and early development, not acquire through post-toddlerhood experiences.
TLDR: You’re blaming the wrong thing for most of the cases you’ve ever actually heard anything about.

Transformers tend to avoid that specific style of chest. I remember reading an interview with Hisashi Yuki where he talked about putting Lio Convoy's lion head on the shoulder intentionally to avoid that type of lion head chest because it was so prominent in super robots at the time.

No. I'm not saying that Transformers never do the lion head chest, Leobreaker is another example, but more often than not they don't.
In fact, unless I'm mistaken, Razorclaw, Leobreaker and Thundertron are the only examples. On the other hand you have Victory Leo (head), Lio Convoy (shoulder), Lio Junior (inside chest), BM Snarl (head) and TR Alpha Trion (shoulders)

If a KO can do it right, no reason Hasbro can't also.

Don't own SS86 Thundercracker, but looking at a review, his nosecone sits folded up on his back without much wriggle room, so they'd have to retool that part to have it fold out even more and extend to cover the head in order to get what you want. I don't see it happening man. Not with current day cheapass Hasbro. They wouldn't want to invest the tooling when they could just make a pointy head and call it like they've done all these other times.

My theory is that post-Siege and Studio Series collectors are all the Zoomers who are getting into serious collecting because they were reaching adulthood at the time.

It's about cultural changes. Things you can generally rely on, in terms of behavior, experiences, lifestyle. The progenitors of what is so cringily referred to as the 'baby boom' (sound of nearly vomiting) had a specific kinda thing going on, shared life experience, and because they had so many kids at once, that group also became large enough to make observations about
Sometimes the gens are really short. Y is so short you can practically call us 90s kids, and there's significant bleedover into X.
Sometimes they're stupendously long, as in Z, because the culture is stagnated, maturation rate slowed to a crawl, and there are no more common experiences that aren't engineered. No life experiences, just feeds.

If Hasbro/Takara's designers were smart, they should have released Godbomber along with Animated Optimus, making Godbomber multifunctional so that it can form Animated Optimus's gauntlets and jetpack while also being able to combine with Super Ginrai in next release.

If they wanted to avoid having to do it as a HasLab I'd honestly just go back and fix up the shitty tolerances on the LG God Bomber and rerelease that as a pulse exclusive. Then just make a new commander PMOP that the slots and pegs in the right spot to be backwards compatible.

I'm not too familiar with the lore for Nexus. Are his limbs drones that are connected to him (like G1 Optimus with Roller)?

No, they’re individuals who forgot they were part of Nexus. His original torso was a separate character named Heatwave

They really couldn't just do a Nexus made up of 5 little core class sized dudes? they wouldn't even have to be anything particularly complex. fold them over and they're a Cybertronian "car"

So, this is why the new seekers have so many alt faces. From what I checked, it comes off easy enough, but I recommend using a toothpick to gently raise it at the corners, then slide some thread to pull it out. That way you can swap faces between your seekers.

That is good news.
There's already an upgrade kit for a bunch of alt faces but I was hesitant to get it not having an idea how to separate the face. Think I buy it after CNY is over.
Also means I'll be able to paint around the edges of the eyes to better block the lightpiping.
Thanks anon.

This alt mode's figure is still bad. The only reason anyone upsells Siege is because it's just the least shitty line of the "unification" era

The joke outrage about Optimus dying and the joke corporate response to Optimus dying are so fake and onions. This is all in the same vein as how corporate marketers treat Star Wars and Marvel's fans. G1 is gay now and UT chads win again. We kill people

agreed, it's just the price that's tough to swallow.
I should definitely grab the razorclaw kit while the grabbing's good, though. those things go out of stock quickly and permanently. whereas razorclaw himself has a high chance of falling down to 40-ish later.
anybody happen to know offhand the cheapest source? also remind me which third party MP hands fit in his wrists.

Nonnef finally put his G2 Sideswipe kit back up and he proceeds to add the spoilers for some reason, so it now costs twice the original amount. I just want the guns so I can pass those around several figures, like Siege Hound.

I almost wish there was a way to have the panel lines of the shell light up but I imagine that'd have either been impossible or doubled the price tag to add that many more LEDs to the outer casing.

You're never going to be able to sell a $100+ prop to kids so why attempt to compromise with a cheapo version that kids wouldn't care about and would look too cheap for adults to display? I guess the TF One version was kinda that.
The kids TF toys these days suck but with inflation there's only so much quality they can have, you can't get away with simplifying to 5PoA like regular action figures. Parents are poorer than past generations and can't spend much more anyway, which is why everyone defaults to tablets and free apps to entertain kids.

Heh
A mini haul
Had to track down another mtmte hound because my preordered one came in with a fucked up face paint.
Like even in 5 different stores this is the only one that doesn't have serious face paint issue.
Did the factory in Vietnam forget how to paint or something? I don't recall things are this bad even from few years ago.
The bad one I think I am going it to my niece. He like cars.
The green Cosmo is clearance which is nice.
>>
>>11715409
The Shockwave thing seems like a whatever they have on their plate currently at the time. They want to reference Bruticus using Shockwave as a gun and they did make one but that was back in Legacy and he was a Core Class but Core Class is dead so they decided to use a Shockwave that conveniently is coming out in the same period as Bruticus which was the original Siege mold and retool him to make him combined with Bruticus over the shoulder accuracy be damned.

I think the question being asked and the question being answered are 2 different things here.
I think hasbro employee here is just talking about the voyager being released, and no, that product will not "have" its own frame.
And the question is clearly ""will there be a frame in the future sold alongside or with those limbs you fucks promised us""
I just don't think this actually answers anything.
Not that i put it past hasbro to just say, lol just use g2 silverbolts.

Got Blitzwing but don't like how Astrotrain has no additional color on the front of his body apart from the head and waist and I know that's an inherent flaw with how he looks but a bit more purple on his chest and legs would have been nice while the new version does have that, unfortunately everything else about him is fucking trash!!!FACT!!!
