>>5663299
I'm getting it. Because I love Soundwave. I have the Hasbro MP, and it's amazing, but it's a display piece. Can't just mess around with it. Plus if the MP breaks in any way it's hard to get a replacement.

>who's the white guy in cw magnus?
Minimus Ambus. In the comics, Magnus died a long time ago, and a tinkerer created a robot body in UM's image so he could keep him "alive".

You can have him (or Alpha Trion) riding inside Leader Ultra Magnus's chest, and the inside is molded to accomodate him perfectly. You don't have to, though. That's cool too.
>>
>>5663428
They don't look very similiar.
>>
>>5663428
Huh, they based some of Ultimate Optimus's design off of PM OP too, eh?
>>
>>5663431
It's worth noting that he can't stay in the chest for vehicle mode, which ruins the gimmick for me.
>>
>>5663428
Oh so they aren't the same. Just share a few similarities. Let's hope that idiot shuts up now about them being the exact same thing.
>>
>>5663390
And if the little guy bothers you and you can't stand him, you can chuck him across the room, Magnus does not need him for transformation or anything.

I want to believe they delayed the release since they're trying to make it look more like Super Ginrai.

The voyager head dude isn't compatible with the titanmasters, also the new one will be more g1-ish, while the voyager aesthetic is full IDW.

Well, we did get Leader seekers, Megatron, and now Soundwave. I'm pretty sure we'll get a new Shockwave eventually, considering Earth Wars is hinted at being "back to basics" I can see it happening then. They're going to need Leader class figures for that line.

JohnWarden is basically approaching Transformers the way he did GI Joe. but while that worked for GI Joe because the 90's/early 2000's where mostly a wash for the franchise, he seems to think Transformers where the same way before the movie. Sure, it wasn't as successful as the 80's or post-movie, but with the exception of late G2 and Beast Machines, it was steady. And that's almost better than being a fad.

Well shit didn't know that. At least Takara will still give us cool shit. Although I gotta ask why Cheetor? is it because his Universe toy was shit or because he was the kid appeal character that almost every kid who liked Beast Wars had a toy of? I had two of them myself.

He's the Datsun of the BW toyline. Its got a lot of repaint potential.we'll probably get some crazy extensive remold of it as Tigatron (remolded beast and robot head, beast limbs, beast kibble to make him bulkier), then maybe another remold as Shadow Panther. Megatron is likely, too, but they are probably trying to space out the expensive releases, and Dinobot is a very tricky design.

also someone cobbled together 96 Cheetor and Universe Cheetor and its amazing how much nicer it looks. Not perfect, but they pulled off the beast mode well.

I think we'll see them do some crazy remold magic to do Tigatron and Shadow Panther. People keep saying Tigatron would need to be bigger, but one of the areas that'd definitely need a remold would be the legs and that
s and easy place to add height. Shadow Panther only because I think they probably won't make any show Predacons and they'll just count him as one. G1 'Cons barely get any love so it's possible that extends to BW 'Cons.

Figured out how this was built. It's BW Cheetor with the shins, front beast legs, beast head and neck (and robot head) of the Universe toy. I should totally buy some junkers and do this.

Basically the whole central core/torso is just BW Cheetor's, then the extremities are swapped out for a better beast mode.

I really hope this is an emerging pattern in the MP line and not the only other BW character we're getting. If we're only guaranteed two BW MP characters, Cheetor would be my last choice. If we're gonna get more, he's a good second entry. Time will tell, I suppose.

However, for the love of christ please don't neglect the Predacons. I get that with the Decepticons there's a limited pool of characters that make sense as MP figures outside of the seekers (especially given that the Autobots are just cars which makes engineering comparatively easier), but with Beast Wars, both sides are just animals. There's no licensing issues and no engineering issues that are harder than others with only a couple of exceptions (Terrorsaur will be an interesting challenge if we ever get him). There's no reason to play Good Guy favorites like 90% of the Transformers toy lines normally do.

Make good on your bullshit promise and actually give us equal representation on both sides for once, Hastak. Us villain fans have been waiting.

Yeah, that reminds me, how many more S1/S2 MP Decepticons are even possible? I know someone at Takara said they weren't planning on doing tri-changers or combiners so that cuts a ton of characters.

I'm surprised Takara hasn't tried making an all-fembot line. Hell, it wouldn't even need to be under the Transformers ip.
