I thought so too just from pictures but in-hand it looks great. Overall the colors are nicer, no ocean of two-tone blues. She has an Autobot badge in robot mode. The blue lightpiping works and looks better; Hasbro Chromia has the dead-eyes.

I wish they used the FE mold as the base. I can see the logic behind keeping them the same size, but FE and Blackarachina are about the same height so it would give them a nice tall titty amazoness in each group.

Question: I'm not sure if get CW Bruticus or wait for United Warriors Bruticus. Because I want the grey chest plate, I didn't really care much 'bout Blast-Off. But the color scheme is another thing, I want a Bruticus that reminds me the G1 toy, so grey chestplate.

I'm not sure if Takara choose for Brown chestplate, like the cartoon, or not.

Either way, I love this mold. And the Prowl mold.

Nice contrast in colors and a better toy result.

Think about it, what kind of grey will they use for the head?

Mp-11 starscream grey, would you want the head in all that?

Too much silver paint, if we're lucky takara might do all silver, or that mp-11 grey with a painted mouthpiece.

I'm more hopeful of them giving the takara one the same colors personally

>wahhh I got no money to pay for it and I will say people over paid because I couldn't afford it myself just like that G1 Fort Max reissue 2 years ago.

Before you bitch that it's nothing but nostalgia, just remember it's not that cheap to reissue something especially something that has electronics nowadays. G1 reissue of Devastator is actually as much as that Trypticon and Devastator only does 1/3 of what Trypti does. You're in a hobby where it attracts new and old collectors so even if you don't really think that anybody would pay $200 for a reissue, the demand is there cause of how mainstream it is.

You can thank Obama and the rising price of oil for that. No oil = no plastic and the chinks are getting smart and asking more money to work at their factories. If you follow the economy enough it's really easy to understand that at the most it's the retailers that are making the most since they do have to mark that up almost 100% to cover their overhead and they get it for sometimes cheaper from the wholesaler. I know this cause I was thinking of getting into the toy selling business so I had to research all of this.

the TRU reissues of the Autobot cars from 10 years ago, when prices were still low, were $30 apiece. Starscream was $35. For some reason that can only be counted as an odd fluke, Powermaster Prime, Prime & Magnus were only $50. PMOP was a steal compared to the cars.

The Platinum line is Hasbro knowing their fans are dumb enough to pay it, and of course you can buy most of those sets from eBay sellers in China for much less than what KMart is asking.

Okay I sanded down Tracks' hood peg with low grit sand paper very lightly and rubbed a bar of soap on it and now his legs can separate with more ease.

The "keep on truckin'" pose has become a way to show off the balance/articulation of a figure, it's mostly a Transformers thing. It originated with CW Powerglide, who is particularly good at it, hence the post has been relabeled as "keep on glidin'".

It has been surmised that it will never happen, since a combiner will likely require more compromise than an MP usually allows. Although there is that third party making a pretty great set of Constructicons, so far.

>>5300000
Hah.
>>
>>5300019
>that third party
>a pretty great set
Not like they haven't been doing this almost from the start.
I still feel like there's room for a higher quality version of something that has similar proportions to the recent HasTak one. While I'm not big on it, I recognize it's probably the most cartoon-like, and that's what most people want.

I still think given time, there will be MP gestalts. The only thing that will stop it will be a death of the toy market or the global economy. The toy market's been dying, and the global economy's been predicted to die for a while now so it's probably just a matter of time. So it's really just a race to see what great junk we can make before it all goes to shit and all this stuff becomes piles of refined regret.
>>
>>5300044
We could be given mp characters from gestalts but gestalts made from them would be risky, mp's are meant to be as whole as possible, cartoon accurate with a reasonably involved transformation.

To add connector ports to a modular design that, even if exclusive to each other and not interchangeable, would still have to hold up its own weight?

We'll be looking at massively over priced, unstable abominations that may have a few compromises.

Right now I want mp PROPER triple changers, if they can do this we'll be one step closer, until then I don't see anything of the sort happening

They haven't. Most third party shit used to be over-engineered, flimsy, awkward stuff with no cohesive design, and too much greebling/panel lines. People only said it was good because they were often, quite literally, the only way to get certain characters as modern figures, but there was a ton of compromise for the stupidly-high price points. 3P stuff has only gotten better as of late since so many companies now strive to match the MP aesthetic, which forces them to restrain themselves a bit, which is good.

Nah, Titan Devastator has shown that they don't have to make the Titan compatible with the gimmick if the character didn't have it.

Same, All I really hope for Trypticon is that he's decently articulated, and can see eye to eye with Metroplex.

I had one on pre-order, and one month before re-issue, they got slapped with a cease and desist and refunded me.

After that, MPs have really taken off, and deluxe size and quality has gone to shit, so I just stopped collecting most retail stuff.
