You guys know how you've had a few old threads get bumped back up because a mod goes in and deletes a bunch of off-topic /pol/ posting, lowering the post count to the high 200s meaning it's able to be bumped again?

That's what happens when you don't ride a thread down to like page 8-9 like the Lego Generals or /gpg/ or any of the other generals on any other board. Hell I know /m/'s mods got in a fit over all the generals they had for a while and had to make a sticky saying that you should wait until at least page 6 before making a new thread. Your thread from Friday with the human Optimus Prime is still on page 9 for Primus's sake, and both are only halfway to the image limit.

I got him because the normal one was crazy expensive, and I barely even notice the gold now. It's a very fun mold, my biggest problem is that the backpack has trouble securing but I think that's just a QC problem on my end.

I'm hoping we get some Beast Wars 20th anniversary figures. I'd especially be interested in some "super organic" repaints of some of the older toys with ink-washed fur and the inside-facing "shell" parts of the animal being painted to look like veins and muscle. After all, many of those figures had sculpted detail of their innards in bot mode already.

Anyone know what color gold Generations Goldfire's paint is? Mine either chipped some gold paint off of, or came (not sure which) chipped out of the box. I figure some model paint might patch it up, but I also know model paints can be tricky to color match.

>>
>>5311272
>>5311278
Actually. I'll just give the limbs, when wheeljack and hound are released, to sky lynx that i wouldve used on my battle core (along with prowl and mirage) and buy one of those 3p kits to BC to make him look like white optimus Magnus.

Issue resolved.

T.bh I would cream my pants if they did a propeller VTOL, new mode for Vortex or otherwise. Sandstorm is cool, but turbine VTOLs aren't as cool as open propeller ones.

would have been cooler to see some molds retold to turn into animals. like, Brawl, a tank into a turtle, one of the ariel bots into a hawk/bird and a cae into a cheetah or something

Still a success. Now I can begin cutting into the Titans Return budget.

Oh no, Vortex has 2 blades instead of 4, and holy shit his gun is different! And no, not the shitty landing gear! That was the best part! When I think of Vortex, his definitive traits sure are "4 blades, a frontal gun and landing gear!" Nothing else comes to mind.

On what must be an extremely unrelated note and have nothing to do with your response, how bad is your autism?
>>
>>5311413
He probably is, but I already have Streetwise, and the only difference between the 2 is their colors, and heads.

Ironhide is almost completely different from First-Aid, and while I don't have Breakdown, I never liked that mold.
>>
>>5310948
>Skylynx remold into Predaking WHEN edition.
Never. You can't remold Sky Lynx into Razorclaw, it's impossible to do without doing something all you shitheads will hate Hasbro for anyway. That's like asking Silverbolt to be remolded into Motormaster.
>>
>>5311429

I'd love Hasbro for it. I want a Predaking so badly. He was the coolest looking gestalt besides Superion.
>>
>>5311429
This is the same school of fans that argue you can "remold" Onslaught/Silverbolt/Motormaster and the various CW vehicles limbs into Predacons and Terrorcons. It wouldn't even be like Swindle and Rook, it might as well be a new mold.

>>5311434
If Hasbro really were doing Beast molds, do you really think FP have done those horrible homages for BW?
>>
>>5311442
>If Hasbro really were doing Beast molds, do you really think FP have done those horrible homages for BW?
Yes.

I don't think Hasbro gives two shits what some 3P does given how many 3P figures are out there for absolutely outrageous prices.
>>
>>5311415
Dude, the structural differences between Blades and Vortex at a glance are the front of the helicopter, the blades, and Blades having skis while Vortex's landing gear are wheels only. The feeling is that Vortex is a more "Kill you to death" kind of thing while Blades is more of a civillian aid one. Being the same parts entirely for altmode both have the same feeling.

Yeah but he's about as different from Offroad as Prowl is from streetwise.
>>
>>5311523
Plus prowl has a gorgeous paint scheme and a shotgun.

Again. He's the best use of that mold.
>>
>>5311523
I don't have Offroad, so it's fine.
>>
>>5311454
No one said anything about Blades, moron. We're talking about Alpha Bravo, who is very clearly Vortex to begin with. Hell, he has several rockets, a gatling gun, and another pistol, if that's not "kill you to death" enough, I don't know what is.

So why complain about CW Vortex? If anything, shouldn't your autism be triggered by the fact that Blades uses Vortex's mold, and as a result is a rescue helicopter with missiles?
>>
>>5311623
>pistol
Where?
>>
>>5311624

He means the actual gun that comes with the figure I'd assume. Rockets on the hands, combiner gunhandfoot, and his actual machine gun.
>>
>>5311623
Isn't Blades the inappropriately bloodthirsty one on the Protectobots, though?
>>
>>5311623
Blades' old toy had the rockets as well. Not having those would trigger autism.

Too cheap to buy from bbts or the other american sellers or me.

From HLJ or amiami I'd do that, from a new online shop local to me that offers bbts prices and shipping, yeah, only just found out now and have a MP ramjet on pre-order.

But I ain't american and the shipping puts UW defensor out of my ballpark, and the deco on the hasbro one works for me so I can live with chest groove instead of foot groove.
>>
>>5312533
I liked the Groove, but I didn't feel like getting Defensor for almost 200 dollars, plus getting an American Hot Spot since I don't like the one coming with the set.

Plus, I got Defensor for 75, so I'm good.

Starscream and Armada Thrust are definitely confirmed. The blue leg could be Soundwave but there's the possibility it could be something out of left field (Crankcase?). The Rook leg is the real weird one out though, it's seemingly Tan/Brown/Orange. Could it be Demolishor or a random micromaster?

Hmmm... Assuming that the others are Starscream, Thrust and Snow Cat, the blue and black one doesn't map to any UT Decepticons (Mirage and Sixshot are more purple than blue, Barricade as a limb seems silly especially since the components were not depicted as alive in Energon, far too light to be Mudflap or Menasor and altmode doesn't fit, Soundwave would be strange and altmode doesn't fit) and would be strange to not be Demolishor based on the other members.

Thinking of this another way, if link was Unicron, would be reasonable the blue one is Scourge, but then who is APC?

He was the reason i stopped being Transformers as a kid, cause Megatron was my favorite and they downgraded him to being a dumb car isntead of a tank

I realize that, I'm jus saying that they can improve his aeshetics. In the show his horns were sharper, his shoulders were bigger and they had spikes on them (Spikes arent on the leader figure). also the aforementioned tiny hands.

It's not the big improvement MPs are usually known for, but he can still be more show accurate. Cybertron Prime also has details not present on the toy, like his backpack missiles

Everything else I change up as I build my collection up, or just feel like changing stuff. These new Legends I got I think fit somewhat well in. I know it's weird having a tiny Starscream next to huge-ass Megs and Soundwave, but the figure just looks good. I'm not a scale whore anyway, especially since nothing was ever in scale.

I agree that Trypticon isn't going to be a Headmaster though. I don't get why they would make an entirely new expensive ass toy just to shove a shitty out of place gimmick into it. It wouldn't even work well because the whole point of everyone having a Headmaster is so they're interchangeable throughout the line. Obviously you can't have an interchangeable headmaster for a fucking titan class toy. Fort Max works because he's supposed to be like that and it's a double headmaster. PM Prime is a different case because it's a remold of Ultra Magnus and making it a headmaster on that mold is easier than somehow shoving a Powermaster port on the front of the cab.
