MP Shockwave is out edition

Old Thread: >>5580814
>>
>>5583257

Thats a mighty tall order.
>>
I can hear the screams of joy on AP...

>Attendees shall not promote, sell or display any items bearing the TRANSFORMERS property that has not been manufactured or
published by or on behalf of Hasbro or its licensees, whether during the Show or at the Show premises (before, during or after posted
Show hours).

> In addition, Attendees shall not promote any competing events that coincide with the event, at anytime during the event (before or after Exhibit Room hours), and will be removed from the premises and they will forfeit their name badges and right to attend BotCon or stay at the BotCon hotel. Violation of any of these rules
can result in removal from the hotel property.
>>
>>5583280
Aren't they going to lose their license after this year?
>>
>>5583280
Shit meant AS. Damn cold med its time for bed....
>>
>>5583280

Eh, I don't think people can complain if it's an Hasbro-run event and they don't want competitors shit on their turf. Shit like that happens in fighting game tournies too.
>>
>>5583280
That is the most unfun con I have ever heard of. It's like anything enjoyable they're banning. Fuck I'm glad they're dying.
>>
>>5583286
But even after hours in your own hotel room?
>>
>>5583257
Well, if they wan an accurate Leokaiser, they can't do that with Sky-Lynx.

And on reuses... maybe they'll also recolor them into the Rescue Force, or a black repaint? I know the RF were Europe only but it's still something.
>>
>>5583293

I don't think anyone could enforce that part
>>
>>5583295
I'm sure Willis and others will be diligently be on the look out...
>>
>>5583297

And they'll probably be told to fuck right off by security/hotel staff if they're seen snooping around peoples rooms.
>>
When does botcon reveal shit? On Saturday, or Sunday?
>>
>>5583294
Considering that MP Star Saber was voted in by Japan, it wouldn't be impossible for them to go out of their way to have an accurate Liokaiser to go up against Star Saber.

Speaking of which, how does a combiner scale with MP Star Saber, probably pretty well, I'm guessing.
>>
>>5583465
Got a side-by-side comparison? At any rate, Star Saber is taller than any of the CW combiners.
>>
>>5583465
I remember someone mentioned that Star Savers a bit bigger than a CW combiner.

If it comes with the Hasbro special hand and foot parts, then it might be to scale.
>>
>>5583465

CW Combiners are what, 10-12 inches? Whats MP 'saber?
>>
>>5583257

I could see them separating the shuttle part of Sky Lynx, cramming robot bits of one of the deluxe jets into it (so it has a bot mode) and then adding bot mode bits to the Lynx half and keep it a voyagerish size. Its a rough idea, could use some refining.
>>
>>5583481

That could be cool.

Really wish Takara was doing Liokaiser first, fuck Computron, this is a more interesting product.
>>
>>5583481
Might as well make a new figure at that point, but it could work if done right.

Anyway, I still think they could pull it off by using two figures. At best I'll end up being a chunkier torso than the rest of the line.

I recently got MP Starsaber. I have no connection to the character or to Masterforce or to Brave style robots in general, but he looked like a fun toy. I was absolutely over the moon in love with him right up until I got to the part where I started messing with the Z-Star... That thing is such an ugly, fiddly hunk of plastic in vehicle mode. In robot mode it's so unintuitive how it connects with Saber, the arms- while decently articulated- are too floppy to really be able to pose at all, and the big hands l, I don't know if I'm doing something wrong but I can't get him to hold his sword except in very specific, goofy looking positions, otherwise it just flips right out of the hands or the fingers open and drop it. Overall I think he's still a pretty cool toy, but I would've vastly preferred just get Saber and the little brain master guy.

No, you're doing it right. Like I said last thread, being a fan of Brave is literally the only reason to buy him. Also why I got PE Warden.
I fucking love Brave. I hope Oritoy makes their Brave toy they teased.

>the arms- while decently articulated- are too floppy to really be able to pose at all

Something is fucked with your figure then, man. Looking at reviews of him (since I'm gonna be getting him eventually myself), his fully combined mode arms should be on pretty strong looking ratchets.

Is it normal for CW Motormaster to have really slippery hip ratchets going forward and backward? The outward ratchets on mine but the forward/back ones are shit on mine.

I even took the whole damn thing apart in attempt to thicken the tabs on the ratchet teeth, but it was a complete pain in the ass. I don't even know if I actually fixed anything when I reassembled everything and tighten the screws on the crotch- I think I may have made te ratchets a tad tighter, but it might just be me trying to convince myself that I didn't just waste at least an hour to fuck with all the parts.

The organizers are huge assholes. They have rules about what you can and can't do in your own rooms, outside of the hotel's own policies, including but not limited to running meetups outside their jurisdiction or moral compunctions, and selling shit without giving them a kickback.

Played with him a bit when I got home from work and yeah I was misremembering about the arms, they've definitely got some chunky ratchets. The hands are still shit and the arms are so big and ungainly they're not really fun to pose (especially when you're also dealing with trying to get them in a position where the sword will stay in place). As I said, he's still a fun toy all around, but a few annoying things take some of the piss out of it.

Fuck you, Takara. Using a legit character many collector's are drooling to own, the first MP triple changer no less, and using it as a joke.

The designs while tweaked are evidently "inspired" by hask/tak designs.

No one would give a single fuck about 3p's if they used 100% totally original designs, so they shape them in forms we know well.

>>5585424
Original tooling or not if it closely resembles a product, character or figure that already exists then it's infringing upon HasTak's IP. Honestly I'm still surprised that HasTak hasn't sued these 3P companies and I'm even more surprised that with all of this talent these 3P companies are no more than mere leeches. It's simple if you're dependent on using someone else's IP to create your figure then your stealing, end of story.

If Jin or any of these customizers tried this in Japan they'd actually be in quite a bit of trouble for breaking Japanese copyright law,but that's beside the point. Customizers usually only deal in on off figures where as third parties produce thousands of figures which is a more substantial hit to HasTak's bottom line than all the shitty customizers on eBay put together. At the end of the day HasTak has chosen to ignore these third parties for the time being but make no mistake if they truly wanted to they are well within their legal rights to sue these companies.

>If Jin or any of these customizers tried this in Japan they'd actually be in quite a bit of trouble for breaking Japanese copyright law

Considering that not only do you get Japanese figure customizers, but also people selling their own home-sculpted model kits at conventions, the point is not entirely valid (yes I know some companies in Japan are more copyright-crazy than others, but a lot of them, including big players, don't give a fuck about fan-made products).

>Customizers usually only deal in on off figures where as third parties produce thousands of figures which is a more substantial hit to HasTak's bottom line than all the shitty customizers on eBay put together.

Which is still a pittance compared to what Hasbro makes from their own products.

>At the end of the day HasTak has chosen to ignore these third parties for the time being but make no mistake if they truly wanted to they are well within their legal rights to sue these companies.

Well they could try, but given that A: most of the companies are in China, and B: the fan backlash would be highly undesirable for them, they'd have to be fucking retarded to try it.

Jesus, look at the bat mode. It's a fucking mess. And that's not even factoring in the cheap Indian factories they're going to be using and the unbelievably shite plastic they use nowadays. It may be a lot more expensive but if you want a good G1 Mindwipe just get the FP version. "Official" offerings (outside of the MP line) may be cheaper but they're a false economy.

MPP10 is fucking amazing. Straight up eats hasbro's lunch. It looks like an uspcaled MP-10 but it's not the exact same mold, it's better. Same basic design as MP-10 but with improved sculpting details, engineering, paint, and materials. It's sad and a little scary when a KO company makes the official figure look like the bootleg version,and costs half as much.

>>5585552

From a casual standpoint I'd say the main difference is that the official releases greebling looks more intricate and has more depth while the 3rd party's greeble is mostly hard angles and circles. That said, the 3rd party one looks cooler overall. Just wish 3rd party stuff took more from soul of Chogokin/MP aesthetics and went for a more animated look. As is I think a lot of them try to emulate Gundam model kits.
