That face alone is really tempting. I do wish he was just a bit smaller though. Any shots of his combined alt mode? And it's a shame he doesn't have a base mode. I mean, I know he doesn't have one in the comics, but I'm a sucker for base modes.
>>5676143
Thought he did have a base mode. Was mentioned in the review that the reviewer just wasn't allowed to show it yet.
>>5676158
Oh shit really? That would be the tipping point for me getting this. I'll wait and see.
>>5676165
Yeah, I was super hyped when I heard that, I wish we could see it already. I love base modes too.
>>5676184
I just want to have IF Overlord manning a giant Overlord base.
they posted a render of it but want to keep the actual thing a surprise.
>>5676215
Mmm :I that's a little underwhelming. But eh, we'll see. Could still be cool.
>>5676129
>>5676243
>>5676243
Like I said in the last thread I emailed BBTS to see if they were going to lower the price to match the smaller sites or even beat theirs. They told me no they hadn't received any complaints about the figure and said the price stands. What greedy idiots the big store are. Its no wonder people are going to alternatives.
>if I take off my mask, will I die?
>>5676273

>>5676273
I don't know a thing about the character but, looking at pics he seems to ooze character and makes me want to pick this up.
>>5676273
I hope they fix his terrible crab claw hands.

Fuck that mask looks awful with the inset upper part like its biting its upper lip. Such a strange choice since that was just that one issue like the other dude was pointing out.
>>5676317
how new are you
>>5676318
Compared to Vos and Kaon, he doesn't look good. Too blocky and the proportions are a mess.
Definitely going to skip.
>>5676319
Everything will be okay
>Come Here
>>5676318
>>5676324
Right? They really took their time on it and they know this is the one everyone wants but I feel the same as you: It just doesn't look finished. It's not as bad as the Sark render but this also doesn't look as good at the previous two.
Very disappointing. And I doubt they'd listen to criticism at this point either.
>>5676324
the face and torso kill it for me
>>5676329
>>5676332
>>5676333
>>5676327
Yeah, like the engineering is there--they just need to tweak it a bit so it looks more on-model.
The mask is too flat (there's more of an outward curvature) and general headsculpt is off, crotch is too flat, thighs are too wide, and those hands? What the fuck are with the hands?
I can forgive many of the issues because of how difficult it would be to get him completely on model to how Milne designs him, but these are pretty damn notable.
>>5676318
For a company that loves greebles it's weird how much it feels like both the sculpt and the paint are like...not quite finished in terms of detail.
Like why is Overlord way more detailed than he is in the comics and Tarn somewhat less detailed than he is in the comics? It's weird for two characters from the same company based on the same comic.
I guess Cassy Sark was involved in Overlord and not involved in Tarn, but like idk. I'm pretty tired of his parallel lines all over everything and his face sculpts, but it seems like Tarn could actually have used a little bit of his greebles LOL.
>>5676340
>Heh... you call THAT a knife? THIS IS A KNIFE!!
>>5676325

Doh ho ho.
>>5676354
>The mask is too flat (there's more of an outward curvature) and general headsculpt is off, crotch is too flat, thighs are too wide, and those hands? What the fuck are with the hands?
All of that. Yeah that's all bothering me. It's like they got it close and were like "Ehh close enough". I'm so conflicted too because we probably aren't going to get another Tarn figure ever save for maybe an IF Legends one, so I hate to pass this guy up but those small things all coupled together are just so glaring compared to how polished the first two DJD are.
What are the opinions of it on other sites? Maybe if enough people point out those flaws MMC might considered going over him once more. They have such a great reputation so I would hope they would anyway.
>>5676340
>>5676360
>>5676327
Welp. I'm still getting him because the majority of the work is good and I'm not skipping what's probably my only chance to get a Tarn, but welp.
Maybe he'll come with an alternate faceplate or something.
>>5676332
Oh, it's actually not as big as I thought it was. I'll probably go ahead and pre-order then. That looks nice all together like that.
>>5676413
>that monkey's paw
I thought for sure they would do their best on Tarn but he looks the shittiest so far.
>>5676318
Quick 5 min shit in Photoshop. Dunno how it transforms, but I'm sure they could at least make the feet longer and trim the thighs from the outsides at least.
I think it's just the white knee joints that make the legs incomplete. Tarn doesn't have greeble on the thighs, but it isn't completely fucking white either MMC...
>>5676423
wow that looks alot better
really helps the proportions and I appreciate what you did for the mask especially
>>5676423
>Those fucking ugly as shit hands.
Those are inexcusable even if they leave everything else.
>>5676427
Pretend I fixed those piece of shit hands too.
Looking over some of these new pictures he's so simple, all of his surfaces are flat with almost no contouring where there is some in the comic reference. It shows mainly in the face, chest and tank treads. Not sure what all could be done about that at this point but yeeesh.
And like others are pointing out
>dem hands
>>5676436
You are people,anon.
>>5676440
GOOD PEOPLE.
I am into the wine already sorry.

>now want Carnifex and not Kultur
Whelp looks like it's gonna cost me more but at least Carnifex looks solid.
>people disliking the Tarn figure
I don't see any problems with it, I think it's a good likeness. Am I just missing the faults? I wasn't interested in before, but now I am with all these new pics.
Carnifex comes first though, holy shit I want it so bad.
>>5676545
People secretly love MMC's greebles.
>>5676545
If you're not familar with the comic's look for him and the proportions, then yeah you are probably missing it's faults. That or you're just not as picky, but either way it does have some faults, the hands being the worst.
>>5676545
I don't /co/ and have no idea who Tarn is. He looks really fucking retarded design wise. His face is a Decepticon logo. That's silly.
>>5676621
Tarn is some guy who was once an Autobot that Megs recruited/corrupted and subsequently turned him into Turbo Hitler. He ran Not-Aushwitz, hunted defectors, and also is the leader of a unit that specialized in taking down really nasty rogue Decepticons/Autobots.
He wears a Decepticon symbol mask because who the fuck knows (read: writers trying to build mystery about him hamfistedly), if he really didn't want people to know who he was he wouldn't wear a mask, he'd literally just get his face modified.
>>5676602
Yeah I'm not too familiar with him design-wise in the comic, I mostly catch /co/ storytimes as I'm not that far into the comics yet, I'm just collecting the IDW Collection stuff slowly. From what I remember he looks like the MMC thing though, but maybe I'm missing some of the finer points.
>>5676632
>Tarn is some guy who was once an Autobot that Megs recruited/corrupted and subsequently turned him into Turbo Hitler. He ran Not-Aushwitz, hunted defectors, and also is the leader of a unit that specialized in taking down really nasty rogue Decepticons/Autobots.
>this same copypasta again
Oh it's you. You should probably try catching up on the comics before you start this again.
>>5676602
Oh, and I don't see whats so bad about the hands. The others around his size just have solid hands, don't they? He looks to at least have hinges.
I know my Predaking dudes have solid hands, no finger articulation. Which makes it a real bitch to get some of those knives into their hands at times.
>>5676638
Look at the image here >>5676439, they don't really look like hands or even fingers; they look more like claws or like a tractor scoop. They either need to be redefined better or I'd actually prefer solid fists over those. The guy who got to review the prototype even says they're shit and won't hold anything so it's not promising.
>>5676637
>Oh it's you.
Who? Am I missing something here?
>>5676652
You've posted that exact same description about Tarn before.
>>5676651
>The guy who got to review the prototype even says they're shit and won't hold anything so it's not promising.
Ahh, thats disappointing. And looking closer at the pic, they look a lot like CW Magnus' hands. The look of which I'm fine with, but...They were universally shit because the tolerances were totally off.
>>5676656
Yeah he's got that exact same problem as Magnus from what I understand. And here's the review link, I meant to post it too but forgot, you can watch the hand part at 4:00 but he only touches on it briefly:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ebjASYlwKWA
I bet they'll change the hands since their seems to be a universal dislike of them.
>>5676669
Do they listen to reviewers and stuff and change things, or is this a too little too late situation you think?
>>5676674
CW Magnus had hands like that which, because his tolerances for the hands were all over the place, resulted in him barely being able to hold weapons. Mine if you move his arms at all, the weapons fly right the fuck out.
Which isn't a dealbreaker for me, I love my CW Magnus, but it shouldn't be happening on a likely $85 toy. Hell, it shouldn't be happening on Magnus because he's a $50 toy mass produced by a toy company with fuck knows how many years of experience with toy design.
>>5676680
>Do they listen to reviewers and stuff and change things, or is this a too little too late situation you think?
I doubt they come here but I almost wish someone would link them this thread.
>>5676680
>Do they listen to reviewers and stuff and change things, or is this a too little too late situation you think?
MMC changes stuff from feedback all the time.
>>5676686
If the hands are floppy and cant hold guns for shit then yes I'd prefer the solid fist with a hole.
>>5676686
I'd prefer what they did with Sixshot. Finger articulation individually with a half-tube sort of carved into the open hand to slot things into.
Molded fists with a weapon hole are decent too.
>>5676664
Is Milne actually pronounced Mil-nee? I've just been saying it Miln.

>I'd like to think they'd like to see the last few threads where people have basically been jizzing over Overlord.
Yeah those were pretty great threads, I don't think there were even any complaints.
>>5676701
They went by so fast too. I think they actually fucking outpaced the regular TF threads for a bit there.
MMC made a fan out of me pretty damn quick, despite my sore luck with their products so far. I'm the guy whose Hexatron was missing both guns from the box and whose Leodux sword parts won't fit in the lion mode chest, but shit. I got the guns replaced for free and not like you can see the lion mode chest with how he stands usually anyway and they're more meant to attach to Talon's wings or just be used for the sword...
Hopefully whenever Carnifex comes out my bad luck doesn't bite me in the ass for a third time.
>>5676701

>>5676664
A couple disappointments in the robot mode, but that is a sexy hunk of tank.

Thankfully he's not coming out until September according to BBTS. Plenty of time to save and live off ramen noodles for me.
>>5676687
Did a tank just rape another tank?
>>5676727
no, and you need help.
>>5676727
Given it's Overlord's lower half, it's more like a savage teabagging. No wonder why Tarn loses his shit in the next scene. It's hard to walk away from being teabagged by a giant and not be mad.
>>5676734
>it's more like a savage teabagging
This is the best description ever.
>>5676687
All Roberts Deception stuff is so much more fun than his awful sitcom comedy with autobots parts.
I've noticed some pictures have pic related wearing the jet cockpit as a gauntlet while others have it as a shoulder pauldron. Is this still a thing? I like the shoulder look better.
>>5676763
He can do either.
>>5676769
That's fucking top shelf.
>>5676775

>>5676786
I think they look cool but I can't for the life of me remember what their individual faces are even supposed to look like.

Oh, thats cool then. Those faces aren't bad per se, just they scream "generic robot" to me.

Please tell me I'm not the only one who sees Disney's Hades in the second panel?
>>5676809
I can see it, a bit. It's mostly the smoke though.
>>5676664
He looks pretty good from the review. Though the treads here call out the ONE thing I don't like from Carnifex.
Working, rubber treads. Rubber should be avoided, that shit is gonna crack with time and turn to ass. I'd rather a solid hunk of plastic than working rubber treads.
>>5676833
Do you know how many kingdoms I'd ruin for Spartan to have working treads?
>>5676833
>Working, rubber treads. Rubber should be avoided, that shit is gonna crack with time and turn to ass. I'd rather a solid hunk of plastic than working rubber treads.
Me too. Unfortunately we're in the minority and people who desperately need to roll their transformers across their desks and floors have the loudest voices.
>>5676850
No idea. I would like if the treads on Carnifex weren't rubber though, or maybe had an optional part you could replace them with.
Because again, it cracks with time. It may last a good 20 years, or it may shit itself in 4 or 5. Depends wholly on where you live (temp/humidity) and the rubber batch. I don't like to play russian roulette with a near $200 high end toy.
>>5676842
Yes. Look at SOC Gaogaigar. Best toy threads ever.
>>5676708
fellow leodux owner here, mine won't fit his sword hilt things in his chest as well. Does anyone know of fix for this issue?
>>5676930
*a fix
>>5676927
Meant treads of course.
>>5676439
A part of me wants to blame the "FUCK ALL GREEBLES EVER" people for this, as if MMC is overcorrecting because of the loudest complainers.
I'm not serious, but a part of me feels it.
>>5676443
It's IDWaste of Paper. Get your forced memes straight.
>>5676836
You sure they're rubber? They look more like multi-part plastic treads to me.
>>5676687
Is it bad I really want overlord to get the full djd treatment in the end?
I hate him as a character. he wants to beat megatron and will do anything it takes to do so. That's it. He just happens to be a phase sixer, which means fuck all when blackshadow apparently can't even handle the djd by himself, which means fuck all as well when a bunch of B-list autobots can hold out against the djd plus an army of deceptions with a glorified rain umbrella.
If anything, megs needs to down some normal energon, go super saiyan and smash overlord's head in himself, then tarn.
Anyone else waiting for a obvious Carnifex 2.0? Its more than likely going to happen with probably better paint apps.
Its what they did with Hexatron so I'm sure they'll milk the mold to death along with a better version.
>>5677018
What would you change?
I think most of the "need" for a Hexatron 2.0 was because it look more liberties from the G1 design and many people didn't like that. Carnifex is almost a perfect LSOTW Overlord.
I suppose they could remold and recolor him to make him more Masterforce-styled.
>>5676129
>Ther'es a third party movie Scorponok action figure yet nobody's talking about it
i just happened to stumble upon while on BBTS...
>>5677048

sign me the fuck up!
>>5676833
>>5676836
>>5677018
I'm pretty sure for a 2.0 they'd ditch the IDW headsculpt for something more Geewun/Masterforce if Hexatron is anything to go off of, and the face sculpt is the best thing about the figure
>>5677048
Wow, cool.
>>5677050

>2.0 Carnifax Continuum with G1 accurate head and Godmasters
>>5676545
Same. He still looks like a good figure and I want a Tarn, so I'm getting a Tarn.
>>5677010
Overlord is a bit more complicated than that.
Megatron spent a lot of time conditioning him to seek his approval and attention, Overlord thought he was special and no one else got that treatment. He was wrong. Megatron unveiled the ultimate reason why he was doing that, which was to make him a Phase Sixer, a giant weapon, and Overlord felt a little less special and ran off to throw a massive tantrum that became Garrus 9. LSOTW is just him throwing a fuckhuge tantrum I hopes that Megatron will notice, but he never does.
He doesn't want to kill Megatron, per se, he wants Megatron's attention through any means necessary, and that means boils down to hyper aggressive violence because that's how Megatron trained him.
Like all psychopaths, he's just really pathetic.
Man I don't care about Blaster much but I freaking love these colors...

I would not be shocked if a Godbomber was made to work with the upcoming PMOP toy for Titans Return.

Sorry Hasbro, that new one you're releasing just doesn't cut it.
>>5678231
To be fair that's a $20 voyager figure and this a $150 MP style figure.
>>5678272
Yeah, but I at least expect the Hasbro one to have decent proportions and a good looking head.
I'm new, but I heard there's some good third part destructicons?
>>5678427
Do you mean constructions?
>>5678433

>>5676280
You're a big guy...
>TW MP shit piece incoming
>>5679480
>>5679480
I'm torn on him. He seems a bit too "skeletal" or maybe "lean" for my liking (don't really have the right word for it), but that is fairly faithful to his animation look.
I feel like this one might be taking queues from both the G1 cartoon and his IDW look (and I mean more than just the cigar) and the two are not really fully blending.
>>5679494
>all those screws
Literally why.
>>5679554
Lost both legs in 'nam,
>>5679511
Outside of the face that;s not really "skeletal" at all. Big problem with this figure is it seems too much based on the toy, what with those thin rail-like legs and huge plank of a chest.
>>5679551
Oh, it's Toyworld. For some reason I misread it as Fanstoys (these names tend to run together for me). That would explain it. FT is usually pretty spot-on for MP-likeness.
>nit picking Kultur's every slight discrepancy from the character model
>ignoring Carnifex's retarded size, ass-pull limbs, and transformation.
What is this
>>5679670
Kultur looks like shit though, Carnifex at least looks good despite his flaws.
>>5679733
From my point of view, Carnifex looks like shit.
I think they both look good.
Between them, and the IF Prime+Scorponok, my wallet is gonna be fucking crying.
>>5679745
guess we all have our opinions
>>5679733
what's wrong with Kultur? i think his hands are a bit small, but thas it.
i think he might have beefier proportions than the original, which i welcome
>>5679929
Hands are garbage, headsculpt is really off, the proportions are a mess which I don't get how you think it's an improvement.
>>5679929
Read the thread man, plenty of people explain his problems.
>>5680064
But you're okay with Carnifex looking like no incarnation of Overlord ever?
>>5680091
he looks nearly exactly like the lsotw version though
>>5680091
Aside from the extra greebles and typical MMC-ness, he's pretty spot-on.
Unlike Kaon and Vos, Tarn just looks way off (and not in a stylized way, either).
>>5680097
>>5680101
This is what's frustrating me. You guys can over look entire limbs being replaced and transformation schemes being changed and call it nearly spot on, but if a figure uses a seldomly used head design from the comics and the legs are thicker than what you'd expect the toy looks way off. It just seems paradoxical.
You guys haven't preordered, have you?
>>5680097
Sure close enough if you don't count scale, alt modes, or accessories.
Granted, it's better than Hasbro would ever do, and the odds of a MP offering are slim to none. For an obscure character outside of a recent show getting two 3d party offerings is better than nothing.
>>5680123
For reference, this is the extent of the issues people itt seem to have with the proportions
>>5680135
I have more problems than what's there. Not sure why you're ok with him even as-is.
What the fuck am I looking at?
I like both Carnifex and Kultur......
>>5680173

So can we get an exorcist up in here or

Good God, you should've seen the whining about FT Perceptor looking "too heroic" because he wasn't exactly the same box shape as the MicroChange toy. Meanwhile, he's got these two long plastic tabs that slide, tightly, into the shoulders and not even a peep.

4: Why make a rabbit Metal Slug, rather than the actual transforming Metal Slug from the games?
>>5680259
Is is it a choice between Turmoil and this thing?
>>5680309
Is it a rabbit? I can't even tell. It's looks like some abortion that crawled out from a Bayformers film.
>>5680167

>>5680321
mistranslation of some Asian text embedded in the file, maybe? Other EXIF data junk?
>>5680167
I definitely respect 3P companies going for original designs (I assume that's what this is), but this just doesn't work for me.
Like, it seems like they wanted to do a Metal Slug, which is great, but then realized they had to do a robot mode and the whole thing suffered. The MMC Slug-alikes work because they had to do robot modes somewhat accurate to their respective source material. So I can totally forgive the altmode not looking accurate.
With this though, they could've done a more accurate slug as well as a nice bot mode. just don't get it.

I've said it before, what the fuck is up with TFC?
Hercules was a race to the finish with Green Giant.
Defensor was meh.
Predaking and Superion were hot and cold garbage.
These two recent releases appear to have people that care working on them.
I know TFC is a huge company in china, but something is up where whoever is in charge of these recent projects appear to want these to succeed.
Fucking weird.
>>5680570
Are Chinese companies like Japanese ones, where they will stubbornly ride terrible ideas into financial ruin for all involved because they DISHONAH FAMIRY if they dare admit their ideas aren't working?
>>5680570
It's possible they just hired a new designer.
>>5680123
Personally I'm more okay with a figure that's not specifically accurate but looks generally like the incarnation of the character it's supposed to be and looks good (Carnifex) but not okay with a character that's mostly accurate but something about it looks aesthetically bad (Kultur) so in this case it's not really a matter of accuracy to me because I'm willing to accept varying levels of accuracy.
Although I think the proportional changes people are calling for on Kultur look even worse. I don't have any problem with the proportions, I just think he looks flat and bland and underdetailed like they got 90% done sculpting him and never got around to the finishing touches.
My assumption is they heard all the complaints about over-greebling stuff and tried to dial it back and in this particular case they just overshot their mark so now he's actually not detailed enough.
>>5680685
>My assumption is they heard all the complaints about over-greebling stuff and tried to dial it back

I remember distinctly there was a lewdkit for animated Arcee in Shapeways. Can't for the life of me find it though.
>>5680746
>lewd
>Shapeways
hasbro polices the shit out of them to pull anything "adult" for their properties.
>>5680756
Oh, then you're shit out of luck sadly. This is something I'd like to see, get Maketoys on the scene. We need some 3rd party brave toys and no one needs them more than the mech sisters from GGG Final.
>>5680758
Closest I've seen so far is IF's Miko, but thats more of a cute figure than a lewd one.
>>5680570
Best guess is they went through a restructuring phase. Might have lost some designers to rivals or some may have started their own company. Looks like what ever problems they were going through it behind them. Glad to see it as I'd hate to see them end up like fans project.
TW kup alt mode.
>>5680317
It's a petro-rabbit from the seventh live-action TF movie.
>>5680807
That looks kinda bad. Kup must agree, cause he's lookin to shoot himself in the head.
>>5680827
>Kup must agree, cause he's lookin to shoot himself in the head
>>5680807
I thought the legs might be so fucking big on the robot to keep the alt mode sized correctly but damn the back end of that just as too-huge as his legs so now I don't know wtf is up, are they just bad at this?
US retailers are starting to get Pandinus in stock.
>>5680173
I applaud the randomness but that head ruins the entire thing. Don't tell you wouldn't have bought pic related, I fixed these idiots' problem with 5 minutes of photoshop.
>>5680892
If it was $60ish, I would have bought your pic related for fun.
>>5680173
>>5680167
I am very certain it is based off the weird little ass guy in this picture who is green.
>>5680963
If Wei Jiang actually does a DotM Megs then I would get that little guy to go along with him.
>>5680984
>upsized, masterpiece-ized DOTM Megatron
Yes please, even better if he got released in Nemesis Prime colors and got a head remold to function as him.
Shitty picture of the new stuff I got today on my work desk. Well, Evil Lord isn't new, but I had to get him out too.
I like the updated DX9 figures and I wish I had waited and not gotten the first set. But maybe I can get a few dollars out of them. I greatly prefer the purple of the original Cyclonus compared to this one, though.
Bliizard is another homerun for IF. Although I feel like his legs are overly complicated and fiddly. I have them mistransformed here because this way makes it easier to swap between tank and jet mode. And I don't mind him being a double noseconed cybertronian jet.
>>5680984
make a buckethead for him and i'll keep it as my definitive megatron
>>5681133
How'd you get a combined jet mode out of Tinylord? Not two seconds ago I was looking to see if it could be done and then you went and posted this.

It holds together mostly ok. You have to unpeg his back/waist and "crunch" his abs. I really wish his legs had just a simple clip for this mode. And of course his big ramp doesn't actually stay on. I'll probably add magnets to that ramp at some point.
>>5681133
LOL you fucker I was reading your post and saw you say you regretted getting the first set and I was so ready to like post my email immediately and tell you to sell me Cyclonus.
And then I read the next sentence.
>>5681179
What? That I wanted to sell them? Or that I like the original purple more?
>>5681202
That you like the original purple more
>>5681216
Oh. Well, I still want to sell them. I'd do $35 shipped for the set (which retailed for $45). And I rather not break them up because I don't want to get left with just one of them and I feel like I'm more likely to be able to sell them together.
>>5681224
Ok I'll buy for that price
>>5680570
Their last couple combiners probably sold like shit so they got a new designer.
>>5681468
Their last few combiners were shit though.
And being $400-600 per 3P combiner isn't exactly going to make any of them more appealing with the chance any given one can turn out to be a steaming pile of shit.
Always wait on reviews for combiners, unless you're rich as fuck and can afford to just piss away a load of cash.
Anyone interested in Fansproject dinos? Im getting the Fans Toys versions so I dont need these anymore.
$75 (each shipped), or $200 for the set. Complete, good condition, ect, ect.
My IF Turret & Manacle set finally arrived
Man, they're a super fun kit, especially NotSlammer
NotSixgun makes me want some kind of Voyager class baseformer (or simply dude filled with 5mm ports) to play with (I don't think I'll ever get the new Metroplex, too big)
Put him in a pose and he looks fantastic!
>>5681684
>or simply dude filled with 5mm ports
All of MMC'stuff boys have tons of 5mm ports. The predacons in particular have a lot.
Unpainted images of Xtransbots MX-III Eligos have been released.

Stop making my dick hard over something that will never happen.

But that's not the MTMTE design.....
>>5682003
>wanting a MP styled edgelord samurai cyclonus over the geewun imperial design
>>5682014
Yes.
>>5681955
Not digging the proportions.
He seems more fat than THIC. Legs are blocky looking too.
>>5680733

Master Made Trypticon is a Voyager-ish sized base former covered in 5mm ports but it's a Decepticon

BASED PLANET X
>>5682320
Looks fine on its own, but I saw some comparison photos between it and the game models and man, they are way off point with it. This is a great cybertronian-form CHUG Perceptor, but this just isn't an FOC Perceptor.
Also, what's with the pointless extra weapons? Couldn't the budget for those have gone into, like, making the figure better resemble the game model?
>>5682320
Guns look cool but the shade of blue needs more green in it, the abundance of wheels feels very Roller and not very Perceptor but I guess I'll judge the altmode when I see it, and the face looks like it might be pretty damn weird lol
Idk why I feel so picky about Perceptor but it seems like he always gets screwed up. The only 3p one I have liked is the Iron Factory one and like...it still definitely looks like "Blaster Retooled into Perceptor" and the altmode is just "folded up robot," it's just at a size and price where that feels ok lol
>>5682356
The big weapons are from the game, the sniper rifle is because of the comics IIRC.
The shape is mostly right and everything is where it is supposed to be, but the details don't mesh to make it look like a cohesive hover tank. He could use a stand like Azalea to give the illusion that he is hovering and then you can point the ball jointed thrusters down.
I think his selling point are the scrapmaker weapons. He's not super accurate but he still looks like a solid figure. Super artillery mode with everything on him in alt mode is cool too.
>>5682320
>based
stop using /pol/ memes, fuckhead.
>>5682320
Looks pretty good.
>>5682356
Yeah, I agree man. The weapons are nice, but feel a bit unneeded, not to mention that Perceptor isn't really a character known for loads of guns.
Sadly, I think my interest in WfC/FoC stuff is slowly dying. I think when we finally found out that we will never get another game in that universe ever, it hunt my interest.
>>5682394
"Based" predates the existence of /pol/ as a board. Although, I guess they may have have taken "ownership" of it in recent times.
