How? You'd need not just new parts but some new bots as well. The thing is, CW is NOT G1. It's loosely based on G1 but the actual physical models are different. Haphazardly gluing on some extra crap to try and make it look G1 doesn't really work. It's half-assed at best.

Basically in order to justify making a new mold for generations, it has to have a remold as something. Liokaiser's combiner mode head looks like Sky reign's, so that's all they need as justification.

>>5715329
Jfc, calm your tits. What he was talking about was maybe just some parts to make CW Menasor look a bit more like Devastation Menasor, which is a combination of G1 and CW. All it would take is a new waist piece (like Perfect Effect's), new feet and hands (ditto), new arms (they wouldn't even need to transform), and a backpack that would cover the top of the shoulders as well.

>>5715514

They are seriously running out of good ideas. Powerglide makes sense but Soundwave is trying too hard, and the figures are really scraping the bottom of the barrel this time around.

>>5715353
Here is another one of his customs: IDW Thunderwing from Energon Galvatron.

>>
>>5715515
No signature tampos on powerglides frame.

Why
>>
>>5715519
They should have used like the humvee from the first movie for soundwave. That thing needs a reissue and it would have made more sense. I don't know why they insist on using that old hiss tank mold so much anyway.
>>
>>5715511
Not necessarily that, I mainly mean paint and detailing. Sideburn's car mode is much better looking than anything in years.
>>
>>5715512
Did they release a date
Also no shells? Damn monstructor is my all time fav and gets very little love
>>
>>5715545
there is only shells for dinoforce and their monstructor/dinoking is based on the IDW version. but fp has really been going downhill since their warbots.
>>
>>5715591
Granted, we don't know if the Monstructor release will or won't have shells. There are small groups of people yapping Monstructor is cancelled or there's no shells, but FP never gives information like that until the first figure is dropped on us, meaning it's just complete speculation as per usual.

The last we heard they were looking into smaller shells, hence their teaser art showing them off.

Will it pan out? We really don't have any idea. They're still trying to finish up Dinoking. Two legs missing, two shells for preorder and still no teasers for the last two.

As for being based on IDW, Dinoking isn't. Their representatives at TFCon and the like have expressed interest in doing an IDW head for Monstructor, but the fall back seems to be shared heads between the two.

Bootleggers usually use pics of the real product when selling shit anyway. Just check eBay, all that cheap chinese shit all uses the official product shots, like something being sold for $20 when it's normally $60+ isn't a dead giveaway it's a KO/bootleg.

I guess they went for HISS Tank because the logic was the canopy could be better painted into the typical Soundwave chest window, and it was a classic Cobra vehicle that hadn't been done proper yet.

Some old PoS handmedown digital camera. AFAIK the lens on it is fine, but it seems to never agree with any amount of light I give things. Always too dark which makes photos come out grainy as shit, or I need to break out the flash which also makes things look like shit.

Unrelated to my before dump, but did you know in Australia they missed out on CW ultra magnus and thundercracker?

Only just got skywarp, if you're a leader seeker fan down under you gotta import.

Not a big deal considering only a toy chain that isn't tru got skywarp, I guess we can blame the shelf warming megatrons, mostly armada megatron

And another unrelated image, this time fort max being sighted in another australian chain, big w for $249aud, much cheaper than myers ($350+).

But its still fucked up, I paid $98 for gen metroplex from the same chain years ago, I swear to god EVERYONE WAIT FOR HIM TO GO ON CLEARANCE

Sure it might make hasbro think we can't afford titan class, but a retool with a head off gimmick isn't worth the mark up, plus scalpers are getting ready to pounce

>>5716901
He's fun that's for sure, chopshop too if new heads don't bother you.

I wanted the TAV version but kickback ain't gonna have the sticker on his chest at this point, meaning he'll be out of place.

Thankfully the hasbro one mostly works, hope you didn't pay more than rrp

Only a retard would THINK 3d printed stuff looks fine on its own.

You'll need putty, the ability to use sand paper without fucking up the surface, some cutting skills if you want any engraved details (seeing its hand painted detail shows how shit the 3d model was) and proper paint skills.

Only a moderately good modeler would have any chance, most of us into transformers would lack such a talent as we're too busy arguing about how shit paint apps are to learn how to paint, let alone more advanced stuff only someone who's spent waaaaaaaaay too long would ever do

Yeah I saw the year of the goat platinum soundwave at Myer in Perth for like $299 and nope'd the fuck out of there. They also had the platinum edition Coneheads, $199 for what is basically G1 Ramjet, Thrust and Dirge.

TRU over here had CW Menasor, UW Superion and Victarion for $199 each. I went back after getting paid and only Menasor was left.
>>
>>5716941
>TRU over here had CW Menasor, UW Superion and Victarion for $199 each. I went back after getting paid and only Menasor was left

Rightfully so being one of the weaker UW releases.

Still this shit pisses me off.

>muh Australian retail needs help!
>i can't use online shopping!
>I can't get scammed if I use a shop I know!
>I DON'T HAVE TO PAY SHIPPING IF I BUY IT INSTORE

With premium collectables early adopters can get UW releases (and platinum editions-some you can't get here even) far cheaper than anyone else, and even if we used the likes of HLJ we STILL beat what local retail could ever promise, god people are stupid.

But then again so am I, I got my goat soundwave for $105 at myers as I had a discount plus sales, next thing he went on clearance for $99 2 weeks after, didn't bother even trying with the conehead set seeing how I still have my g1 ramjet (and seeing the swirling plastic on the wings worries me more than clear plastic, I handled clear plastic toys far longer than gps stuff and know what to do and expect).

You think Victorion will go on clearance or would retards buy her out?

Its been common knowledge especially after legends skullcruncher reveal.

>>5717005
My guess is selling them stand alone like hasbro is doing doesn't work in their market, different ballpark with them japanese autist

>>5717010
Maybe they learned a thing or two from their Arms Micron stuff?
>>
>>5716897
Wow, never realized just how tiny these will be.
>>
>>5717013
Possible, plus it might entice people to try out the gimmick as well as pack in just a tiny bit more.

Deluxes get weapons, legends get heads they can't use, leaders get themselves and nothing more.
>>
>>5717013
arms micron were never sold separately to begin with
also it's not even similar

Oh no. Oh, no.

No, see, what happened was, I wanted to swap the legs. And instead of first looking up some info online, which should ALWAYS be your first reflex if you want to mod anything on your Transformer, like a fucking RETARD I just attacked the first screw I saw, namely those on his crotch piece.

Which, in this case, is something you should NEVER do. I should have unscrewed his THIGHTS - if I had, I would now have TWO CW Optimuses with swapped legs, instead of NO Optimuses and a heap of unsalvageable parts.
>>
>>5717074
Gee when I fixed the ratchets on skylynx I kept watching the same vid over and over and over even during the operation.

But wait, if you removed the screw what, did you try to pry it off, I honestly don't see anything broken, I get they're not in one piece but nothing there seems broken
>>
>>5717074
So you striped the plastic? or why can't you put it back and use some glue?

The crotch piece doesn't come off. It just splits a little. And the ratchet features two small strips atop small springs. Getting the hips back inside and functional is a practical impossibility.

So you have to open the torso, you'll have to remove the pins on the chest, that could be worse if you don't know how to do it, just wedge the legs into the crotch removing the ratchet bits, it will still stand with friction, won't be perffect but will serve as a remider to not be so careless again.


if you get stress marks after wedging in the legs use a hairdraier or heat gun to remove them, 1-2 inches away and 5 min at a time until they disapear.

The Japanese dub had some good seiyuus in it, like Tessho Genda, the late Hirotaka Suzuoki (Bright Noa as Starscream), Sho Hayami, Masashi Ebara and so much more.
