>>5372598 Dragstrip Anon here

Well i did one last toy-hunt sweep and turned up squat, so my only choices to fill out my menasor are get the full UW or get a marked up Breakneck from Amazon.

It's just really annoying that I have pretty much every combiner team (that isn't G1 autobot repaint filler) filled out EXCEPT for Dragstrip.

What do you guys reccomend?

Same guy again. Is there a good avenue for selling off my old combiner wars figures if i get the UW? They're not exactly in the best condition. My Motormaster came with two wheels missing and has a cracked neck-plate for his combiner head. The Dead End has not so great joints and some future polish applied, and Breakdown's breakdown.

Should I just set them aside for future galvatron use or could i get something for em

Question for about the rook/swindle mold

The leg mode usually has you fold up the front part of vehicle, and the feet to make it in line with the rest of the leg modes. if the don't fold those bits away and leave it in the straight vehicle mode, does it match drag-strip with the spoiler down, or breakdown with his feet foled down?

Is Transformers the cheapest of the popular things to collect?

More bang for your buck than legends BUT comparing it to a gundam is extremely apples and oranges.
>>
>>5374902

You could probably get a few bucks off eBay, maybe. But thats about it. You could just save'em and use'em for Cyclonus/Betatron/Skylynx, or just buy the CW figure you're missing and eat the cost, since it'd be less than buying a full, new UW set.

That sounds like a manufacturing defect honestly. I have a CW Defensor, his legs don't flop at all. Worst he has is the right tab lock problem on his right leg, but damn near every CW Hotspot has that problem since it's a known defect in the mold that it won't tab in super securely.
>>
>>5375457
That exact issue you mentioned. Do you know of a fix?
>>
>>5375461

Oh...It's just the tab lock? I dunno if theres a fix, mine doesn't just flop out either. It only tends to unclick if I fiddle with the leg. You could try futureshine maybe, I honestly have no idea if that would work. Some other Anon's might know better, but it honestly sounds like you've got a whole 'nother level of issue beyond what there normally is.
>>
>>5375461
You can fix the tab issue by sanding the inside of the screw post. The fix is online

No no, it's not the Tab-lock thing. His leg sheel-chunks stay secure. I mean the actual hip-ratchets themselves are super weak in combined mode, and any leg pose that isn't ramrod straight just goes to pot.

Also he keeps leaning forward in combined mode.

I think these two should be on just for the engineering alone. Bulkhead's transformation is spectacular and doesn't even use any fake parts.

I'd also say FE Cliffjumper and Starscream, but they aren't as well put together as the voyagers.
>>
>>5376358
I'd second these two. I know people give that Optimus shit for fake window boobs, but he's a work of art otherwise, and that's really the only way you can get windows that look show-accurate in both modes short of a Leader ROTF Prime sized/complex toy.

Shit, now I don't even want it.

shit, fuck. I just noticed some yellowing on another part of the trailer, and popping Hi-Q out of the cab it's yellowed. Seller asked mint condition prices for this, too.

Off to file a Paypal claim. Seller is soppsoed to be a professional toy seller and didn't notice the damage?
>>
>>5376565
Did the auction say "Mint Condition" or anything like that? Otherwise, it's your fault for assuming an old figure would miraculously be in perfect shape.
>>
>>5376572
it's the seller's job to note flaws, omitting details doesn't waive liability on the seller's part.
>>
>>5376565
>file a claim

Why? Did he advertise it as mint? or undamaged? Did you ask about damages before? or ask for detail pictures?
>>
>>5376545
Combined mode is pretty awesome but yeah his robot mode is garnishing
>>
>>5376575
again, if a seller fails to disclose damage, it's not the buyer's job to eat the cost. Fuck you if you don't like it.
>>
>>5376575
Your the seller arnt you?
>>
>>5376573
It doesn't matter. If he didn't claim it as mint then it's not false advertisement. Nobody was in the wrong.
>>
>>5376587
yeah.... Paypal doesn't give a damn. Just like they don't give a damn if you say "no returns". Failing to disclose damage doesn't place blame on the buyer.

I agree, gold and black go well together.

Problem is, Nemesis Prime is normally a a black and teal character with translucent (or painted) red windows and weapons.

So while black and gold do look good together, they don't FIT the character.

That's like making a primarily pink and white Megatron with black highlights. Sure those colors work together, but they'd look like shit on a character like Megatron.

So here's an interesting turn of events. Two of the 3 Walmarts in my area have pulled transformers off the shelves completely. No RID no CW no empty pegs as far as both stores are concerned there is no current TF line. I was even told the same thing by two different people in the two different stores, as far as they know TF is going to be a TRU exclusive and/or Walmart simply isn't going to carry them going forward. The remaining Walmart hasn't had a wave update since Repaint Prime and never got in voyagers passed Silverbolt.

Cheetor is a tough one unless they want to make the cheetah not very cheetah like. Rattrap, wasp, and rhinox were easy. Almost all of them are. Cheetor just suffers from animal accuracy because they are so slinder.

>>5376829
There are already the prototype pictures that a couple of us have seen but it's not that much leaked on the net. I've seen them because a person who has close ties to 3p companies also knew people from Hasbro and he was given the prototype slide and I'm not such a try hard to actually ask the guy for the pictures when he showed them to me. That's why we already know Betatron gets his limbs and a bunch more other stuff coming out.

I work in electronics at Walmart and i got the dept manager to order more but that was like last week and there is still only one silverbolt here.

No idea. Ideally a team of fliers would work best with him, or thematically 2 fliers and 2 ground vehicles, but all my fliers are occupied in their native combiner configurations (Defensor, Superion), and all I have left is the G1 cast for Optimus Maximus who I'm not using because I prefer my Optimus as Optimus.

How hard would it have been to install a working radio in this guy?

>>5376997
It would be 100× better if they gave him ankle tilts. Its pretty frustration when beast forms can only stand with a pose of legs either forward or back.

Not sure, I was planning to use my spair Air Raid, Blades(AB is with Defensor), Prowl, and Ironhide, but Grand Galvatron needs Air Raid to hold his cannon.

I live in a tri-state with 6 Walmarts and 3 of them are telling me that they are pulling TFs after they sell out of stock soon.
The reasoning is apparently they are still burn with how poorly the 4th movie toys sold and how sluggish RID was moving so in the name of expanding more space for their hot movers (Star Wars and Marvel was mention by name) they are removing their TF sections.
My question is do we have any way of looking at TF sale numbers from brick and mortar store?
I get that RiD and the 4th movie were weak in sales Merc wise but was it really that weak?
>>
>>5377051
Not even a bad argument. Those are shit toys.

Well, I mean, it's not like you can even be mad at this. It's just sensible.

Idea: toyline that takes characters from one series, and puts them in the style of another.

Examples:

Beast Wars Bumblebee
Movieverse Prowl
G1 Oilslick

What would you guys think of that?
>>
>>5377076
He can be upset by it if it makes it harder for him to find to find his figures.

>>5377077
Beast Wars Bumblebee should have existed as a literal bumblebee, why did we never even get that as a botcon Waspy repaint?

>>5377084

Buy stuff online?

>>5377077
>Beast Wars Bumblebee
Remold/repaint from Waspinator

Reshell from Dotm bee using Barricade altmode, a Barricade with a different head wouldn't work beause of the "monster proportions" most of the Cons had.
>G1 Oilslick
Repainted Override?

Alternators Ravage deserves a spot on that list.
>>
>>5376973
Nobody. Because Sky Lynx isn't a combiner and I'm not falling for Hasbro marketing shit. He'll be Sky Lynx and that's it.
>>
>>5377103
i'm gonna buy two.

one to keep stock, the other to make into the two components like G1; reorient the lynx head, add bird legs to sky lynx's shuttle mode. use some rare earth magnets so it still combines without adding more holes.
>>
>>5377077
It's happened with at least Bulkhead, Lockdown, and lugnut.

You're right on Lockdown and Lugnut, but Bulkheads only had figures for series he was intended to be in.

I'm lost why fun pub was never this smart
>>
>>5377146
Fun pub is a bunch of fanboy try hards that would rather perk their cheekys up to nostigia fans of old than to actually make interesting repaints and retools.
>>
>>5377085
Holy fuck would that be hard to trademark
>>
>>5377156
None at all
Hasbro has both names listed
It's the crazy ass stuff that they hit issues like this combiner they are making where they have to get hasbro to get the trademarks to then in turn allow them to use the names.
>>
>>5377102
Fuck, I want one. He's one of the few Binaltech/Alternator molds I don't have at least one of...

Wasn't he a European exclusive?
>>
>>5377167
Perhaps because of that, we'll get mainline versions of them soon? that'd be nice.
>>
>>5377145
Oh okay. You're stating JUST toys.
>>
>>5377175
No. I bought mine at a wal Mart here in Texas.
>>
>>5377189
Yeah, like generations.

Though that would be a interesting premise for show, something like axiom nexus.

I had another Idea where you take a character, and then fuse elements from their most notable incarnations, could call it Transformers: Fusion.

Just buy a new Motormaster. The version with corrected hips is out now. Maybe you can use the hilt from one on the combined sword to make the sword longer.

Or at the very least you can have Motormaster / Menasor dual weild both swords
>>
>>5377273
OK, so it would cost 50 cents more after they got their margin. Again, are you that fucking poor?

HAHAHA. do you not understand anything? Leaders usually retail at $45. It's costs amazingly less than that to make one. The price would rise much higher than your delusional mind assumes.

likely the flip and they will just sit on them till they near renewal.

Yeah. Keep thinking so. Its cute that you think the price will only raise a few cents if Hasbro added a working radio! :3

Bulkhead had Animated then Prime figures.

I am not sure how this is different with Lockdown and Lugnut who got Animated and Movie toys.

Or maybe even Blackout who did the reverse.

All of these were "new" characters in their respective lines.
>>
>>5376985

Ill probably use that assortment too. Ironhide, Sunstreaker, Smokescreen and Trailbreaker dont grab me

Ill probably swap them between Sky Lynx and Optimus.

White Optimus is my Nova Prime, and is equipped with four Rooks. Haven't decided I want to use two more as feet or not

You can go buy a radio at retail right now for $10 you bloody dildo. Remove the package (already paid), remove the plastic shell (already paid), remove the AM functionality (what kid listens to Rush or Hannity?). The remaining parts cost almost nothing individually, let alone in bulk. It's not an MP3 player so don't even open your fat gob about ML Soundwave.

Them hiking the price to $15 didn't do themselves any favors.

those series had bulkhead as a main character, Lugnut and Lockdown had figures made for lines that homaged the animated series, quite different.
Animated Blackout homages the movie version.
>>
>>5377373
Yeah nothing about the rest make me want them. Not a huge fan of the pick up mold, sunstreaker is garrishly ugly, same goes for trailbreaker on the first point, and I already have Prowl and Streetwise.

>>5377388
Go for a high kick, lets see that leg at a another 45 degree angle, or even another 20.

i can't believe Hasbro missed the opportunity to repaint Rook in G1 Roller colors and make him a limb of Optimus Maximus.
>>
>>5377421
Nontheless, most other generations figures don't require creativity for the leg to go past 45 degrees.

It's a shame, if his legs had more clearance, He'd be fantastic, I take solace in the fact that we can still get a Generations Scourge who turns into a space coffin with clearance for basic upper leg movement, and hopefully not as a headmaster.

When's the next convention? I want to see more of Titans Return.

Hey how do you keep your defensor standing when his legs AREN'T completely straight?
>>
>>5377568
Invest in the PE hands and feet, KO or not they are essential. I got a pair for Bruticus and now he's so much more dynamic. The articulated fingers and giant feet with ankle tilts give him a lot of posability, I appreciate the handfootgun idea, but the lack of ankle tilts kill the posing power of the combined form.
