Threads got nuked. Continue here. We just got news on the Ark, Scorponok, and Galvatron.Archive:https://archive.nyafuu.org/toy/search/subject/Transformers%20General%20/Previously: >>8907463
Here's a shitpost meant for the anon who posted the teletraan template
>>8912512Yeah they got nuked because there's still a Transformers thread on the board you goon
>>8912512Here’s a particularly low quality SG Ark/Weak Anthropic Principle bash I threw together.
What did you retards do now?
>>8912516>posting bootlegs
Give it a month of rapid-fire threads like this and Transformers will probably be banned from /toy/ altogether
>>8912545The OP has ADD.
Been rewatching the Unicron Trilogy, why can't Megatron just decide on a name, comes back to life in Energon and decides to change back from Galvatron to Megatron before going back to Galvatron again later. Obviously Hasbro need to shill those toys but it's just weird.
>>8912537Is that supposed to be Tidal Wave?
>>8912560Blame Hasbro for that. Japan didn't have that issue since he stays Megatron for all of Armada, and upgraded to Galvatron in Energon. Japan didn't consider Cybertron a continuation of Energon, so he goes back to Megatron, then Galvatron.
>>8912563No, this is
>OPs adhd finally got put in check HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAH fuck you OP
Soundwavez the fat smelly whaleHere I am to tell you a taleOnce at Walmart he waddled inThe presence of him made everybody grimBy the time he reached the toy aisleHe was covered in sweat and smelled like bileOh Soundwave the Transfag always on the huntStalking anything with a cunt.
>>8912558Good that guy does nothing but cause issues and shit flinging bullshit.
>>8912578Not to worry, another will pick up his mantle.
>>8912615in case people can't see what's wrong with it
>>8912512What class is this?>>8912563>>8912572I straight up thought OP was a yellow Tidalwave at first.God id love a decent one one of these days.
>>8912623They already have, >>8907463 is still on the board
>>8912624Wait that’s what all the bitching on tfw was about
>>8912625Titan, MSRP was 150, it it's also technically cheaper than the last few Titans.
>>8912628It's a problem, the flipped center piece means the shoulders sit too low, so you're forced to flip the whole shoulder to get it right but the details will be wrong and also has leaves peg hole in full view.
Scorponok’s torso, jesus
>>8912624thank you, im brain dead today
Seriously, what the hell happened? I went to make dinner and come back to find the thread nuked. Who did what?
>>8912633Sorry, pin hole.
>>8912635Maybe it’s mistransformed since in the render he at least doesn’t have an overhanging belly
>>8912638Janny deleted a bunch of threads that may or may not have been made by one anon
>>8912624It's not THAT curved. There's a clear gap at around the 45 degree point. Camera angles could be playing a large part here--at least half the ratchet is going to be visible no matter what.
>>8912646Yes I know anon it was just to get the point across.
>>8912635Yeah, he's...... not great.
>>8912649Ok, cool
>>8912512Titan Ark looks good in vehicle mode, but robot mode is very simplified and bland. Maybe needs a repaint or retool or something.>>8912615Galvatron is a fat piece of shit and always will be, easy skip.>>8912572Looks better as Tidal Wave... what would the alt-mode look like though? >>8912635>>8912651They fucked up his animal mode head and they fucked up his torso in robot mode.Kinda get the vibe we'll get a different version of Scorponok down the line with a different chest and a different head to more accurately represent the Beast Wars version.Either way, sadly the best version of BW Scorponok we have.
>>8912512>TFwiki using "their" pronouns on Ark's toy bio
>>8912665It's a common word in English for when you're referring to something in the third person
>>8912624Can't you just flip the shoulder around and use the bicep swivel to make it face forward?
>>8912673Almost definitely. People are just panicking.
>>8912662go back to /3pg/
>>8912512personally think this looks like shit. Just not as good as any of the other designs Hasbro really can't do brnd new bot forms
>>8912615Well, that's just darn tootin unfortunate. I'll still get him, but this is going to bother me.
>>8912673You can. The pin on the shoulder will be visible in front, but that is a lesser issue I think.
>>8912676The fuck is that? Galvatron sucks because proportions are fucked. He's not a good figure - and give it a year or so and he'll be treated the same way the Titan Returns version is.
>>8912662>Either way, sadly the best version of BW Scorponok we have.Yeah, I'm not enthused about the character, Beast Wars didn't get really good until season 2 anywayI may pick him up eventually, but I'm not gonna be rushing out the door to grab him.
here are those manga scans for that one Anonhttps://mega.nz/folder/Z5pC2QhD#SYoVwLy6eFo-K5eYdv-y-g
>>8912673You can yeah but if you're bothered by the pin then good luck changing it, it's a real fucking pain trying to remove pins you'll amost certainly melt the shoulder trying to do it on Galvatron.
>>8912644I cannot fucking wait.
>>8912644Well, there's parts of him I like, and parts of him I hate. They totally nailed the headsculpt, and I'm thrilled to see they included the cyberbee, but his torso's just too boxy and they fucked up the beast mode face. Still probably the best rendition of him we've ever had, and looks more like the show than the original toy. I just hope they don't fuck up my boys Tarantulus and Terrorsaur...assuming we even get those two...
Smells like shit, Soundwavez must be in here.
>>8912512Why has no one ever thought about Optimus Prime transforming into a Dekotora?
>>8912726RID Ultra Magnus exists, so does Siege Magnus.
>>8912516>something feels off about this...How are people liking Dynazenon so far?The first episode seemed pretty good so far to me. Definitely wondering what the hell the main chick’s deal is.Also if Tigger are going to/are already doing any Tf references as extensive and clear as they did in SSSS Gridman, or if maybe they’re referencing something else this time around.
>spamanon finally got slappedSo /toy/ does have mods.
>>8912691This is great thanks anon.
>>8912512hands bad
>>8912710Terrorsoar was in a recent target leak. No word on tarantulus, but I wouldn’t be shocked to see him show up as an MP.
>>8912516>>8912751I'm just now realizing, but if Kingdom is featuring the Beast Wars cast, then isn't this supposed to be primitive Earth? Why the hell does Teletraan-1 have a readout of the modern continents on it?
someone please steal these 3d designs from Andy Fagrro's DA that cuck don't want to share them, these models are GOD's gifts imagine the amount of 3d porn
>>8912691Awesome, thank anon. If I only I knew anything bout editing to get the Japanese names back.
>>8912751I’m liking it so far, interested to see what the main girl’s deal is
>>8912751Tweeked the screen a bit.(Not using a program that can easily add scan-lines, unfortunately.)
Is Tigatron gonna be an Amazon exclusive?That one listing is of that Golden Disk line of Amazon Exclusives, and now I'm worried that I won't have a chance at him.
>>8912751They're still referencing transformers, one of the kids is Hooligan, the issue is that they aren't as blatant. Gridman had several cast members with details that were blatantly from a specific toy, and we haven't been able to make the connection as easily as last time.
>>8912751Her sister dying gave her abandonment issues that she's now making everyone else's problem. That's her deal.I like that Gauma is a huge bro and not a sourpuss like all the promo shots make him look.
>>8912775
>>8912763In the beast wars cartoon there was some weird time travel stuff and the ark was from the future but landed on the earth millions of years in the past, so even though the maximals and predacons were from a time period thousands of years in the G1 future they landed on earth in the past while the G1 crew were in stasis. One of the major plot points in seasons 2-3 was beast megatron trying to destroy the spark of Optimus Prime while he was in stasis so he could alter the future/past.
>>8912763Earth 4 million years ago, or even 20 million, looked pretty much like it does today.https://dinosaurpictures.org/ancient-earth/#20
>>8912778It might be Bengali colors, Tigertron is supposed to be mainline
>>8912787>the ark was from the futurethe axalon*
>>8912787>the ark was from the futureNo, it wasn't. The Axalon and Darksyde were from the future. The Ark really was millions of years old, and the Autobots and Decepticons inside really were in stasis lock for that long before waking up in 1984.
>>8912783Great, now I can't stop hearing the music.
They managed to get Silverbolt into Kingdom
>>8912806https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JY23DZxEBV0"Autobots we need to go to the moon to get cheese before Megatron does!"
A toast, to Transformers! Cheers!
>>8912726I always thought this would make a good Motormaster
>>8912819What the fuck are you talking about? Keep your Down's Syndrome ass out of your parent's liquor cabinet.
>>8912512That's not the transforming Autobot ship I wanted:(
>>8912847MONKEYS PAW
>>8912819There's nothing even remotely similar about them, you schizo. Not even a similar transformation scheme, from the looks of it. Lay off the lead paint.
>>8912833Or better yet, Clench.
>>8912665You are aware some of the main wiki guys are complete super left pro liberal (yet never met a black person and say backhanded racist shit) liberalsThey would shit a dog before letting a Trans person get dead named.
>>8912841>>8912851I think he was making a joke about their proportions, long torso narrow shoulders.
>>89128472022 Wal-mart exclusive.
>>8912819Silverbolt is a Voyager, Mainframe is confirmed a Deluxe in the Press Release. Also look at his fist peg holes compared to Silverbolt if you don't like reading.
>>8912878That's a solid mockup. Comparing the two really shows how boring the Ark's arms are though. There's nothing to them. They exist, they're big, there's nothing for them to hold, no weapons, boring.
>>8912635ooohh.. wow... that's disappointing.I knew it was going to be hard adapting that bizarrely unrealistic toy and the cheaty TV model, but... yikes.
>>8912665willis basically runs that place. he's so out of touch with reality I don't know how he has the time to go around leaving snippy comments on every article relating to some thing said at a convention that's so insensitive!!1!
>>8912512>some lucky jannie must of gotten the pepperoni pizza hot pocketPost some toys dingus.We got seekers covered in poop, a giant yellow big O and conspiracy theorists claiming Trump is still the legit president and teletraan 1 is a fucking silverbolt retool.
>>8912879>>8912876
>>8912878I'd buy that.I've been begging for an excuse to get a big Transformer for ages now, and an Animated redeco would be a blessing.
>>8912887His parents are both dentists.And he married someone who has 2 parents....... who are also dentists. They are your classic spoiled trust fund babies and it's why he has all the time in the world. He sits at home doing his doodles while raging about trans rights and BLM shit on Twitter and poisioning the TFwiki with his opinoins
>>8912895hell you can remove politics from it entirely and just focus on the fact that dentists make money by spreading fear and lies
>>8912869>>8912895> Willis writes a black person in his comic> Black person has sex with overweight white women and is sex crazed.Walky has never met a black person in his life and didn't even finish high school. Yet he fancies himself in touch with the real world.
>>8912537This is how they'll make the Nemesis... unfortunately.
>>8912897Well dentists are just crooked car mechanics that have Doctor in front of their name.
>>8912900Nemesis is shit anyway. Make a toy of the underwater crashed ship.
>>8912512Ark looks fairly good, really just needs a fold-over panel to cover those side gaps in alt mode.
>>8912888I hate when chef Ramsey goes to normal American zah places and then calls them bad. Like ok it's not some fancy stupid French pizza with thin crusts and leaves on top, but a good zah is supposed to be doughy with lots of oil and grease and meat. When I see him order big greasy zah and it falls apart when he tries to eat it, I think "damn, that looks like some good zah"
>>8912878>Feet aren't chocobo headsNot muh Animated Omega Supreme
>>8912878What's next, War For Cybertron Unicron in Energon colors?
>>8912635I'm surprised, they recolored blackarachnia's legs black to make her spider more realistic, but scorponok gets to keep the red legs and even new red chelicerae and tail tip?and they made the scorpion tail more realistically shaped, but they included the ability to twist it into the insane version from the toy?I like the beast mode okay, but (once again) they completely fucked the color from both the original toy and the show, so I think I'll wait for the inevitable recolor this time. I've been pre-ordering this whole line, but they've taught me NOT to do that, because A) they're going to be in stores before my pre-order arrives, and B) for some reason hasbro is giving these weirdly wrong color schemes, then fixing them in later releases.
>>8912907It's an act, he actually hates everything included himself. He is one of those guys we will find dead one day with a hooker who was spanking him with a diaper on
>>8912907yeah doughy pizza is goodof course the entire basis of his show is insane. after the 3rd time a place turned out to have cockroaches and rancid food in the back, he should have started looking in the kitchen FIRST, not eating THEN going back theremakes it hard to forget it's all stupid fakery.
>>8912763Shhh, shhh, it’s gone now. It can’t hurt you anymore.>>8912789*sigh* Really wish I’d seen this post before I edited Pangea onto this. Too late now, though, might as well post it anyway.
>>8912635>>8912644>deluxe
>>8912512I might consider getting it if there's an upgrade kit that swaps the head for auntie's
>>8912921>>8912922I wish he would get bob craned.
>>8912917You rang?
>>8912946Yep, thats more like the unicron I grew up with. Based AF!
>>8912691Thanks anon. Been wanting to read some of these.
>>8912929Isn't mainframe supposed to have a little shuttle mode as well? Suprised there hasn't been a pic of that yet
>>8912918>they're going to be in stores before my pre-order arrivesMy entire experience with BBTS this year
>>8912767If it’s 3D Tf porn your after, this guy occasionally does just straight up soft-core renders plus a bunch of erotically designed fembots:https://twitter.com/TRAWERT1
>>8912892Omega Supreme just got reissued, Black Zarak looks fun, you have big Transformers who're good picks.
>>8912950This isn't Mainframe, it's Teletraan-1.They just share a body type.
>>8912512WIthout the context of size this looks like a Legends toy or a shitty T30 deluxe
>>8912946>all that additional paintThat'll be 1000 dollars plus tax plus shipping kthx
>>8912965I mean Titans never have complicated transformations, they're just big. So Legends or Deluxe would probably work if they scaled it down
>>8912965He reminds me a lot of Fort Max. They both had a shitty, bare look to them.
>>8912878Shame that no one has, to my knowledge, fanarted out what Steelhaven/Sigma-Supreme’s robot-mode looks like (with its additional ship parts, as opposed to a straight Omega-Supreme recolor.)
Here’s a non-Ark digibash of the newest reveals from Twitter.
>>8912965That's all Transformers toys. Especially the big ones. Or the ones with big ones.
>>8912981What about Scorponok in the colors of every other Scorponok?
>>8912981I wonder what motivated them to make the legs angular. the original toy had round-cross-section legs, the original CG model did too, and instead of folding up under the body, they fold up to the back of the tail (Cleverly letting their knee joints function), so... they should have been rounded.
>>8912984What does a scorpion's legs look like?
>>8912983In their defense, you can kind of see how they got to this color scheme from the show model, they just had a bad screenshot.
>>8912981>Botcon 1999 Sandstorm colorsWhat's next, BotCon Japan 1998 Double Punch?
>>8912987no not those legs, those look great. I really like how they folded them into the robot mode.robot legs. the ones that fold up to the back of the tail (that's why I said that!)
>>8912979>Steelhaven/Sigma-SupremeWho? thats why.
>>8912991I imagine tDouble punch would be first up for a selects repaint. It'd pobably be in 2022
>>8912960>erotically designedit's literally the same tier as whore cosplays, just a girl wearing a couple robot parts. fuck off with that gay shit
>>8912960 Technically Transformers are always naked
>>8913033Nah, altmode components are clothing. Nude is just the skeleton frame.
>>8912991That looks great.
>>8912934He was a little guy in the show. Scale wise, it makes sense.
>>8913041>Nude is just the skeleton frameThat would the equivalent if humans were stripped to their bones though.
>>8913033Might as well post this for the anons that missed this new piece of art.
>>8913056Sakamoto does it again
>>8913055TF Anatomy has multiple levels of layers. They have the flat grey body that is similar to "skin" but more rigid, and then inside that they have the wires and tubes and stuff.
>>8912726>>8912728Thunderclash did it first.
>>8913033No.Sometimes they wear cool tattered capes.
>>8913055Hot.
>>8913085this was the only good bit in the movie
>Amazon deluxes are again at $23I'm so done after this line.
>>8913053He's about the height of Terrorsaur, maybe a bit smaller, but the bulk could easily make both of them Voyagers.
>>8912899Did he really never graduate hs? Does he have an actual job?
>>8913151Not him, I only know how dropped out of College after a year.
post metroSEX
>>8913085Spooky
>>8913139No, he's not? Scorponok, Waspinator and Tarantulas need to be regular Deluxe sizes, with Terrorsaur being a tall Deluxe like Ironhide. Voyager would be too big for Terrorsaur, unless they made him as small as Primal and used the budget to give him a big wingspan.
>>8912751Ahhhhh no. I just soent 5 days in a thread on /m/ and we cant fucking figure it out I finally stopped thinking about it but youb reminded me again. So far we definitely have Hooligan girl except she has no orange to thrown us off, maybe Towline from RiD is NEET cause he has mystery machine colours, maybe tm2 spittor is the protagonist, and definitely some random girl is a Microman. Yume kind of looks like a Famicom but I might be crazy
>>8913138Sure you are lad, see you next line!
>>8912778There was Tigertron and Amazon Tigertron listings. Im guessing Amazonnis orange
>Be careful who you call ugly in middle school
>>8913253That's more WWE KANE to me
>>8913253>>8912751I remember trying to figure out what the references were. They tend to follow themes. The theme this time seems to be "unreleased". I had a few guesses but have since lost my list. That said, the main dude (I assume, haven't got around to watching yet) is certainly the unreleased G2 Grimlock.What's thrown me off has been the saturation. I guess if we accept that chick as Hooligan, then some ideas that were dismissed could be revisited.
>>8912876Mudflap into Erector would have been the better choice then. And you could do the whole Ark's Erector joke thingy.
>>8913242And Transmetal Megatron was shrunk down, as expected being a Mega-class instead of an Ultra-classI feel like OG Megatron's a bit too short in that poster
>>8913305Greymon
Mainframe is deluxe? isn't the computer mode gonna be too small?
>>8913329Not if he's scaled to Core class characters.
>>8913271
>>8913305looks like he transforms into Greymon
Space is the place
>>8912512I heard they're planning on making a BW live action movie. Is this for real?
>>8912556>banning one of the most popular toylines in the worldlol
>>8912635Torso isn't the problem. It's the legs. If his legs were a little bit longer he wouldn't seem so stumpy
>>8913357Yes and no, there are four TF movies in development. Current the scripts for two of them are done but only one is being filmed which is the sequel to bumblebee. Rumor has it, the film will introduce a BW characters in it. A BW script was commissioned but it sounded like it was going to be a bit of departure from the normal BW premise. If Covid hadn’t happened the BW would probably happen soon
Did they hand Scorponok to an intern?
>>8913370More like Scorponot.
>>8912635>>8913053Hmmm, I didn't have a problem with his colors until I compared them. Why is he so purple?
Anyone wanna potentially trade their Ramjet for my SG Ratchet? Or just sell me their Ramjet for a reasonable price perhaps?
>>8913381how a bout some sucky sucky for a ramjet
I have an extra sib Thrust.
Wtf happened to the last thread? I liked it
>>8913390No papi <3
>>8913398Were you the OP? Did you insult the Lego general or something?
>>8913411No. I didn't, someone got butthurt most likely
>>8913398Someone was starting to flood the board with threads and a janitor did their damn job.
>>8913424No, they were good threads you fucking faggot
>>8913426Don't worry you can bunker down in >>8905106
>>8912665So what? We don't know what the character's gender is, and "their" is a gender-neutral pronoun that works until we do. The Ark's computer has been both male (Teletraan) and female (Auntie) depending on which story you're looking at, and since Teletraan's getting a figure of its own, they might just make the larger Ark toy a girl.Chill out. Go outside. Touch some grass. Don't forget basic grade school grammar.
>>8913437Fuck back off to twitter faggot
>You see Galvatron? You aren't dealing with the average Headmaster warrior anymore.>I have risen above and become a legend, the legend that you fear.>I have become a Super Headmaster!
>>8913426Quality has no jurisdiction when there's four threads for the same general on the board at once. Doesn't matter how good they were, they shouldn't have all been there in the first place.
>>8912899>>8912895>>8912887It's never been proven, but odds are also good that Willis pretended to be Floro Dery on allspark.com and his own wiki out of an autistic dislike of the man, which sounds 100% believable, as he's fucking demented.Also one time a guy tricked him into revealing his deep-seated masturbation issueshttps://itswalky.tumblr.com/post/77236614719/im-kind-of-torn-about-your-nsfw-comics-on-one
>>8912665>>8912869Anyone notice they *still* refuse to upload pictures of Flame Toys Windblade? lol What an absolute bunch of faggots
>>8913437Anon, the Ark not only has a very masculine body shape, but its fucking face is built after the very masculine Autobot insignia that was also used as the face of the male Last Autobot. It is, by all observation and logic, male, and if it does indeed end up being female, that only means the people at Hasbro have completely lost their damn minds.
>>8912537Hah! Suck it smelt.(The secret to success is to not actually attempt to make the end product any good.)
>>8913465Here’s Smelt’s much higher quality digibash BTW.
>>8913446Faggot
>order Deep Cover from GameStop>costs $2 less than if I had ordered from Hasbro with their worst shipping option>says it’s going to arrive at my house the very next day after it’s processed and ships the day after I order itHow can Pulse compete with this?
>>8913481By having more than four toys in stock.
In other news go go go anon is back and his legacy lives on. Based
>>8913451That might just be the wiki generally being pretty slow to update about non-transforming merchandise and products, several of the other most recently revealed Flames Toys products also don’t have images yet, presumably due to lower relative personal interest on the part of regular contributors.Honestly, if you’re willing to put in the effort, I’d give it a try for adding one of the official pics. They wouldn’t really have a leg to stand on for reverting it seeing as the official product shots are out now and in its wouldn’t be the most risqué image or product shown on the site by a long-shot.So if nothing else, if they do actually try to not have it on there, it could probably pretty easily be used to incite a minor flame war by voicing said arguments.
SelectedLime375 from the fancy website made this animation as to how they believe Teletran’s transformation will most work.
These guys look radical
>>8912726Siege optimus, with a custom trailer to hold a phone/microscreen
>>8913505Unlikely
first ever attempt at panel lining. i think it turned out ok. couple of spots to touch up
>>8913453it's a robot. technically none of them have genders.
Transformers Cybertron WrecklooseA funky little lizard from the Beast Planet.I'm not sure what it is but he really seems to stand out from his peers.Maybe it's all the alt mode articulation, all four limbs have useful range of movement and there's a bend at the midsection and tail. The jaw opens too and all the little teeth feel good to run your nail on.Maybe it's the great paint job. Whoever designed this guy must had a real craving for some transmetal 2 design because there's a large amount of asymmetry in both the sculpt and paint apps. I really like the way the underside of the neck fades to black.Maybe it's the fact he's a monitor lizard and that isn't something Transformers turn into a lot of the time.
>>8912635Oh, Scorponok's been shown? Anyone else since the initial wave?
>>8913545>Option 1: Agree with you and get called a Twitterfag>Option 2: Disagree on the basis that they have genders but not sexes and get called a TwitterfagHE CAN’T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT
>>8912624I hope all the bitching on tfw will make them change this retarded mistake along with battle damage crap.
>>8913553>all the bitching on tfwIs not good enough, they'd have to see people bitching in their fan fest chat or in a convention when they reveal them (which sadly can't happen thanks to covid).
>>8913515lol I'm banned because they're faggots
>>8912512>Metroplex and Fort Max have cool weapons to hold, but their hands also work as cannon fingers if they aren't holding anything.>Ark has nothing to hold, and it's hands look really awkward and seem to be desperately looking for something to do.
>>8913553>along with battle damage crap.Yeah, not going to happen. They brought it back after all of the complaints during Siege, and it's safe to assume it's here to stay for Galvie.
>>8913556>it's time to write spam masseges09.04 I have no tasks to do so I can do a little spaming, retards did that with ER OP so we could do this too.
>>8913547Super simple transformation. Turn the waist, split the tail, split the head. Done.I really like the look of this little robo dude. His giant shoulder pads and big floppy feet shouldn't work but they do.I'm not sure sure if the different colours on the legs or that only one leg has lizard feet hanging off it is more striking asymmetry.
>paid $5 for WFC BW Megs todayI'm in love with this dude. Would have gladly paid full price. Shame Dinobot didn't get the same love from Hasbro.
>>8912726Because Elita 1 should transform into one
>>8913569This weapon thing. What a pain in the ass.I'm not even sure what it's supposed to be. At first it might look like a shield, then when you plug a cyberkey in it sort of looks like a bow.But it can't really be held as either since Wreckloose plugs exclusively on the underside of his forearm. His lizard feet get in the way when he tries to bend his elbow too.Playing with Wreckloose a bit, I find he lends himself more to neutral poses than dynamic ones. Even if he does have quite a bit of movement for a UT Basic. Including, like, four joint in each shoulder, a neck, and a waist.And I have to say, his green eyes don't pop out very well against his yellow-green skin.
>>8913453It's a sexless robotic alien. Its gender is entirely a matter of voice and perception. That said, I reckon it probably will be a he, but body shape doesn't objecticely confirm anything.
>>8912878needs better hands
Have they said who's next in RED after arcee and cheetor?
>>8913600Roadhandler
>>8913056Flamewar? More like milkwar
>>8913600I think prime megs and knockout? Probably 1 or 2 moe
>>8912878I hate it.I wonder if I only hate it because we never got an actual Animated toy of it. I love the idea of Animated characters done in other aesthetics, but not this.Maybe it helps that all the fan created repaints have so many options to chose from. They don't HAVE to be taken from the only giant soap-bar-shaped spaceship.
>>8913615Maybe we get something with UT next year.
>>8913613>milkwarThank you for reminding me about Milkman-Man, an entity in the DC Universe more powerful than Doctor Manhattan, and the antagonist of the Justice League/Doom Patrol crossover “Milk Wars”

>>8912665>anon forgets how to refer to someone in the third person
>>8913629You seem stressed out, Anon. How about a glass of reality-altering milk?
>>8913630“Theirs” is for when you’re referring to something belonging to several people. “His”, “hers”, or “its” would be the third-person possessive of a singular entity.
>>8913635Gimme some of that dairy.
>>8913551>Option 3: Admits possessing enough pattern-recognition and rudimentary empathy to predict the negative outcomes of either of those responses, like some kind of normie bitch.GTFO Twitterfag!
>>8913637‘Their’ as a gender-neutral singular third-person possessive actual has usage dating as far back as Shakespeare. It’s just somewhat less common and widely used.
>>8912665My name is Mx. Yzptlk. My pronouns are kl/tp/zy/xm.
>>8913649*‘Theirs’
>>8913635Okay, so, why a milkman?
>>8913651Fuck off you five-dimensional little imp.Your kind ain’t welcome here.
>>8913637"They"/"their" is a very common gender-neutral singular, anon.
Please talk me out of buying the "Netflix" ER Optimus. I already have the standard one.
>>8913656The cartoon is the worst in the franchise.
>>8912624>hasbro can't stop fucking up Galvatron.
>>8913657Low bar.
>>8913657It's the colors that are drawing me in like that thing from The Raft
>>8913661A Reddit poll strongly preferred the standard's color scheme. This will probably make you want to buy it even more. Whoops.
>>8913656Gun is molded in black rather than grey and painted over in black, inner legs is molded blue so his legs don't look like they're missing paint even though the back side of the legs is still in grey. Comes with a Shield-cum-road and a Pteradaxon that can both be an axe or a Shield-cum-crossbow. You can see his eyes clearly on his head and his joints are tight but not overly tight.
>>8913660By leaps and bounds. They even cheaped out of hiring the usual VAs for anyone. When and if they get to Kingdom the blow to Beast Wars is going to be felt everywhere.
>>8913649>>8913655Nah anons clearly it's the trannies he let's live in his head trying to ruin transformers for him.
>>8913664Keep it in your pants, man

>>8913664Anoooooon
>>8913663>Reddit
>>8912512By far the most disappointing Titan Class. His robot mode and Ark mode looks great but the hands can't do anything other than move the thumbs left and right, he's the shortest Titan out there standing at 19 inches where others are 24 inches and above and looks like there's no transforming base mode. Mainframe/Teletraan 1 is great though.

Shit did fastfag actually get banished? Good riddance.
>>8913677>By far the most disappointing Titan ClassThis is Fortress Maximus erasure
>>8913677How's them sour grapes?
>>8913789Yeah seriously fortmax was so lazy it hurts. Like they did the bare minimum to remold him for his robot mode and then did fuck all else for him. They didn't even give him any fucking accesories or anything.
>>8912673You make too much sense.You're probably the smartest person in the fandom.
>>8912682>>8912694Honestly considering we had to accept toys like Classics Grimlock and Universe Ironhide/Ratchet who had multiple screws visible on their shoulders, Galvatron enduring a single visible pin is nothing.

>>8913794Fort Max was a pile of horrible decisions and even going for the TAKARA WINS AGAIN version could only go so far. >compromised retool of Metroplex to the point of having phantom transformation joints that don't even do anything>Hasbro decided to start with universal release stuff so sound effects are gutted down to stuff that doesn't need translation-- result that toy can only shout his name like a pokemon or DECEPTICON>City mode is based on a fucking mistransformed one that existed in the catalog rather than the actual good city mode the original toy had>Partner budget went to Cerebros and Spike, so gets no handheld weaponry, and Cog was DLC sold two lines later>Takara fixes what they can, then decided to double down on the bad base mode by GLUING HIS LEGS SHUT so you can't even fan mode the ghost of Metroplex's shins into the action
>>8913816>City mode is based on a fucking mistransformed one that existed in the catalog rather than the actual good city mode the original toy hadMan even the original toy looks better in that mode, since the arm ramps actually extend to function as ramps, the feet bend down and kind of stop looking like feet, and the center tower is big enough to not just look like a boner.
>>8913816While the mold is shit for fort max, I'd argue it does an OK job for GandMax, who was never a city-bot to egin with. Though yeah the mold in general needed further retooling to get the Metroplex leftoves out
>>8912512This thing looks like a fucking muppet lol
>>8913820I can deal with Fortmax being made up of like half reused Metro parts, since this shit is expensive, the budgets were still trash at the time, and Titan class was still not really a proven concept to the bean counters. But they didn't get away with reusing Metro's shins, they needed to be new parts if they wanted Fortmax to have proper altmodes. It wasn't standard yet but they really needed to get ankle joints onto him too, Metro and Fortmax are nearly unposable because anything that doesn't have their legs straight down becomes a balancing act.
>>8913354Do you also have Sky Lynx? The 2-pack bases look much more swell than retail, so I'm mighty jealous. I could maybe combone the two if I can convince myself and Airwave that he's a fren despite him being a Decepticon>>8913570Wh-what the fuck how>>8913635Is this KFC tier comfy fun lunacy? How recent was this ahahaI miss drinking milk...>>8913656Earthrise gets repacked in Kingdom, so you might see one of them shelfwarm, getting yourself a trailer instead of weapons, for possibly/hopefully the same price.>>8913810No no no
>>8913789>>8913794>>8913816Only reason Im not mad at that is they did my boy Scopy good and he's even getting a retool in BZ
>>8913827>Scorponok avoids the stickers of the pre-WFC titans, the battle damage of Siege, and all it cost him was a fivehead and being a Decepti-manletI think he pulled through ok.
>>8913857He was always smaller than Fort, both in the cartoon and anime.
>>8913866That's lame.
>>8913821You really think so?
>>8913677He's shorter than Devastator and Predaking?
>>8913883Not sure if I'm feeling the gold eyes. Cartoon style baby blues might suit it better.
>>8913885Taller. Devastator is 18" and Predaking only gets to the same height by cheating with his back guns-- he's only 17" at the head.
>>8913885They don't really count as Titan Class desu.
>>8913883It even has the same fuckin hair
>>8913889Addendum: while Devastator is also listed at 18" that's cheating too: he's 17" at the head like Predaking, but he -gets- to 18" if you measure to Bonecrusher's scoop on the shoulder.
>>8913889man, you can feel much more mass Unicron has though.all that girf.
>Preorder Cyclonus at BBTS with a tentative release date of "this month">Amazon also put up a listing for Cyclonus that says "In stock" but won't ship until month's end either.Amazon saves me some money, should I cancel the BBTS order and do that instead?
>>8913893Thanks, HK-47
>>8913908Unless you have other stuff from BBTS waiting to ship, maybe. If you have Hasbro Pulse though I'd wait a day or two because they may restock during the fan event and shipping is free from them.
Why does the art for the Beast Wars comic look so bad? Why did they pick an artist with such an unsuitable style?
>>8913935Cheap, time constraints, nepotism, lack of enthusiasm, take your pick.
>>8913935could be many reasons>cheapest artist because the comic is a low prio>simply the fastest working artist not working on other comics>wanting a distinct style from the original showit's probably the latter, the art isn't bad, but it's an aquired taste
>>8913985>>8913982The artist isn't necessarily bad but they're a very bad choice for the property, and as a result the book looks awful
>>8913935I think this is getting into the mess of what is suitable for what is Animated universe take on Beast Wars
>>8913908Amazon has been very dicey with orders/preorders of late with Hasbro stuff.
>>891390840% chance that Amazon will chance your preorder a week before before it ships and then you are fucked without anywhere else to preorder and have to pay scalper prices.Amazon is always a risk
>>8913908if your BBTS is Pile of Loot setting just preorder both and cancel/return whichever one fails to show first. You can cancel up to 7 days after it arrives at BBTS, and even after that it just goes to store credit.
New Thread >>8901495New Thread >>8901495New Thread >>8901495
>>8914021That's a good point. I've found stuff at retail that I've had sitting in the Pile for a while, and just cancelled it to get my money back. BBTS's prices can be a little higher but they're very easy to work with, so it's a tradeoff.
>>8912572Tidal Wave and Armada sucked shit.
>>8914030That's a way past bump limit thread and this thread has 4 posts left before it needs replacing dipshit.
>>8913253Holy fucking based.
>>8913727Rather just wait for the Oversized version of that actually respectable 3P Unicron.
Jetfire remold when?
>>8913814I hope not either. My only concern is that their Rattrap looks great, but his robot mode barely holds together. That and the plastic is so bad he fell off a table and his backpack broke on mine. Really good looking figure tho.Wish TE's robot modes were a lot more playable-without-falling-apart though. Even their TM Megs was shit.
>>8913826>Wh-what the fuck howSelf checkout price adjusting, anon. Also got Primal from another store but paid full price. He's pretty good but not great like Megs.
>>8913253just a shame it's Trigger shit
>>8913613>her new altmode is milk truck with flame patterns
>>8914048Threads should be replaced when they're on page 10 or when they've reached the image limit, not before.
>>8913529You know what would be cool? If Hasbro decides to also take advantage of BW nostalgia and have transforming realistic turtles akin to the old Playmates toys.
>>8914078I believe they did transforming turtles for the 2012 and I think the movie too?
>>8913548wave 2 had Dinobot and Airrazor? THey're really being slow on this
>>8914007Talk like an adult
>>8914089Now I'm worried if Hasbro was to try their hand at BW-inspired mutations they'd end up being those Shrek-looking abominations to work with realistic beast modes.
>>8913653"Milkman Man" is an alt universe version of Superman from DC's weirder sublines having a big crossover event.To go further I believe it's a version of Superman birthed from a living comic book character dreamed up by a living ambulance who was a street named Danny before becoming an ambulance, and had to be ...comics are fucking weird man.
>>8914066Primus frowns upon your misdeeds and transgressions, repent anon!
>>8914107And it was written by the guy from My Chemical Romance, who is the apprentice of Grant Morrison
>>8914109No.

>>8914112Please?>>8914107This sounds actually amazing
>>8914078Part of me would rather they do the vehicle. Like, imagine the Turtle Blimp, but the blimp breaks apart into the four turtles, and the glider attachment weaponizer breaks apart into tech weapons for them...Just a thought.
>>8913614Better given us a goddamn Transmutate and BW Ravage before the line ends

>>8914296Ahhh...
>>8913547>>8913569>>8913580I was never the biggest fan of Cybertron but I did love the jungle planets Transmetal throwback look and Wreckloose is one of my favourites. Love how they designed the robot mode joints to give his komodo dragon mode loads of articulation.I always thought of his weapon as a repeating crossbow, like Guts, except underslung.
>>8913571All abord the CRAZY EXPRESS!!!

>>8912691Cheers!
>>8913053that does not look like an accurate scale image>>8913242what the hell when did scorponok get so small and terrorsaur so big? that's not how I remember it.
>>8913814that... has some problems too, but could be a lot worse.
>>8912512I am excited because the fucker looks huge but I gotta say the robot mode looks functional but boring. I am probably in the minority but I think the humanoid look is for mid range bots. Bots that are very big or small should take on a wider range of alt modes.Does he really need five fingers?
>>8914929i'm with you on more creative robot modes that dont have to be perfectly humanoid. that's part of what made beast wars so good. hands? where we're going we don't need hands (actually weird how often they had to actually use their hands to interface with machines directly, including their OWN systems, typing on their own forearms..)
I like Transformers
So what is the consensus on the new rhinox?I like it but I don't have the t30, all I can see is the head lacks any sorta life to it and a few differences in paint apps, obviously engineering is unknown
>>8912819At first glance I can see where anon is thinking, they could have borrowed some of silverbolt's engineering for this deluxe.If they can upsize old deluxes why not downsize old voyagers...oh wait time for my meds
>>8918559new rhinox, you say? Do you mean the generations one?Airazor just arrived, i'm definitely not using hasbro pulse anymore for pre-orders since they arrive so late. but man, aside from the too much orange, she's pretty fucking fantastic. I can't believe we actually have a bird mode this goodand the wing was slightly misassembled so I was able to just pop that joint off and put it back properly. GOD it's nice having mass market toy engineering.
>>8918943Oh wow we just got shown a new rhinoxhe looks... VERY similar to the generations one. right down to the completely flat weapons. why are they allergic to giving those guns proper length?rhino is a weird color but I don't hate it. I guess I'll get it. which store's preorders are coming out the fastest with Kingdom? also: whar tigatron? I was told tigatron.
>>8912512The virgin "flew halfway across the country to bumfuck Rhode Island after graduation because Hasbro was the only fucking place hiring, and sure she got a million-dollar home out of it, but at what cost"vsthe chad "went to trade school and got a low-paying engineering job, but it's his dream job because he's always loved Transformers and it shows in how cringingly enthusiastic he is"CHOOSE YOUR FIGHTER
>>8913727I love my Unicron, but RRP plus the 100-dollar Australia Tax was the exact limit of how much I was willing to spend. I wouldn't wish aftermarket prices on anyone.
Not perfect but have fun anons
>>8920976why are these companies insisting on having female presenters and PR-drones doing this stuff, when their comtempt for the products they are selling and respective audience are on full display 24/7?
>>8921038Marketing people fall into two camps:>female presenter who has no knowledge of the nerdy property she's marketing>sleazebag Wall Street guy who uses the collectable cards in Kingdom to form his cocaine into linesNerdy folks don't tend to pursue marketing as a career
>>8921038Easier to controlMost ideally you would get the head designer (which did show up) but you can't fill a full show just with themAnd you don't want to have people in lower production and design positions accidentally saying someone that get the company in trouble
>>8918559new one?Honestly too early to say, though I've seen many not liking it at all.
