There's been a couple threads about it, they're doing other characters too. They're all based on the japanese versions though, so "Cy-Kill" has a baby face and stubby arms instead of what we're used to.

This guy here looks fucking sick in both modes though. His transformations does look like wizardry.

I think the copter mold gets stress marks on the hfg port is because the ratchets are off center compared to like every other mold. Perhaps it puts stress on the already thin foot port in leg mode due to it being angled differently?

Don't act like you didn't copy that idea from the last thread. Have some fucking dignity.

So I just noticed that Combiner Wars only released two Leaders in the first wave; all the other ones only had one new Leader release.

So far it looks like Soundwave is the only Leader we're getting in Wave Two of TR. Should I just remove that mystery square in the checklist?

>>5644010
Let's wait and see just in case.

Anyway, do we really have no idea when Brainstorms coming out?

>>5643602

First Edition is more show accurate, so the Prime RID voyager is the one to use as Generations

>>5644017
IIRC he's going to be a SDCC exclusive release. Packaged with an orange translucent Sentinel Prime and another Windblade in her solo comic colors.
>>
>>5644026
Yeah, but I doubt he's only getting an exclusive release. It's pretty weird since the first two waves have all the classic Headmasters except Brainstorm.

I'd say that Vangelus wastes as little time as he can in his reviews; he edits his shit, rarely goes on tangents, and actually makes redeco reviews shorter.

How big do you want him to be? The Legends class Nemesis from the Thrilling 30 line is a decent figure, and would look good next to a combined Bruticus.

If you want him to be the same Deluxe size as the individual Combaticons though, listen to everyone else's suggestions instead.

Sadly, it feels like all the reviewers that get things on a regular basis and soon after (or before) release are the ones that make 20 minute minimum videos. And sometimes, that's okay. If it's a toy from a new third party company, I can understand taking some time to set a baseline for their quality. But if it's a redeco of an existing Hasbro mold, not so much. The one thing I do enjoy about their videos though, is seeing the transformation in full, in real time. Sure, it would be nice to edit it down, but sometimes it's nice to be able to see tricky parts of the transformation in detail and to see what parts are hard to pull off due to clearnances and the like. You don't really get that information in a Thew video outside of one line about "that was a lot of work" at most.

While his videos are not particularly short, I've started watching some of wotafa's videos. He shoots them well, goes over the features and details well (you can always fast-forward if he's talking too long) and even though I don't really understand Japanese, I love hearing his enthusiasm. The dude gets so genuinely excited that its refreshing and fun to listen to.

The alt head is straight up Star Convoy. Likely they planned this mold to be able to be released as both. Maybe Hasbro does one and Takara the other.

I don't think even a black repaint could salvage it.

>>5644414
It helps me by stuff. I sometimes see a mold I want but as a character I already have. Grabbing a repaint helps me get color variety and character variety onto shelves. It's why I got into customizing, take molds I like and repaint/mod them into characters I don't currently have.
>>
>>5644447
I can relate. God knows I don't need 50 Optimus Prime, but the redecos can give you a good number of different dudes.

It's part of the reason I really dislike when they release "stealth" or "arctic" versions of characters that are still 100% the same guy. It was really sad that with all the Bumblebees we got in the movie lines, we only got 1 Cliffjumper (and Stinger), but 50 variants of Bumblebee that were still some combo of yellow and black.

Do you dislike the stealth variants because they're all still black-and-yellow bumblebees, or just because they never change the character? There are plenty of times where the redeco is clearly homaging a different character, but the packaging still has the name of the original mold usage.
>>

but does he have an aerial alt. mode though? This new Optimus?

>>5644499
The voyager class figures in Titans Return are all triple changers, and a text-only leak way earlier said it was voyager class, so we assume so.

He's a Voyager triple-changer with a truck as one of his alt modes. Megatron is gonna be a tank-jet triple-changer. Astrotrain is already confirmed.

Prime's third mode and retool potential is purely speculation at this point, but there's precedent.
>>
>>5644499
Maybe there is different tooling so the plane mode is something else.
>>
>>5644132

Heres how you do it: Quick shot of front and back of box. Show off all the articulation. Quick shot of the accessories. End with actual review of pros and cons, trying to keep opinions to a minimum (ie: "I love red, red is awesome, this all red figure is obviously good because it's red!").

What's the last time we got a Blitzwing anyway, 2014?
>>
>>5644608

The Generations one, which actually would've been a solid B, B+ figure if not for the mold issue that made his arms not slot in correctly. I own the figure, it's really fucking nice but you HAVE to hold his shoulders in whenever you move it or they're gonna come loose. It's like CW Defensor when you try to move his limbbots.

That said I will totally welcome a new Blitzwing figure that hopefully will be much better without issues. Hopefully.

Can't you peg the shoulders to the chestplate to make it hold securely? I know you can do it with Bruticus.
>>
am I the only one who sees the Wreckers as the tryhard MLG clan of the Autobots
>>
>>5644650
Yeah, but a lot of people cite that unlike Bruticus, Defensor's pegs don't actually work nearly as well. I'm guessing it's because Defensor's chest plate doesn't detent into place like Bruticus'.
>>
>>5644650

Defensor's chestplate plugs in, but it barely holds and will come loose with any movement due to the super strong arm ratchets.
>>

Any chance the voyager Optimus will be a triple changer retool for octane? If Prime's a tripple changer (which he should be since he's a voyager). Then chances are he has a truck mode and another "flying" mode of some kind.

Kapow usually get extra for general sale after preorders are filled so there's still a chance you can get one.
