cw brawl waist lock fanmode.jpg
194 KB, 1920x1440
> Click the peg out a few clicks so it is at an angle. This locks the waist forward. Now, look at the back. Normally the turret locks into the back via two pegs. Don't do that. Instead, press the bottom down. You see that peg that is normally used to attach his foot-hand-gun to him in vehicle mode? That can slot into a cut on his waist for the waist swivel, locking his waist from the back. You lose the waist swivel in robot mode but now Brawl's waist is more or less secure.
>>
>>5305733

Not even sure if thats supposed to be a transformation for it. It looks wonky, look at how the legs look. It might just be mistransformed halfway into gestalt bodybot mode, since body mode is supposed to use the lynx head isn't it?

Just got my hands on that base version of Grimlock, I thought I'd like him more, but that dino mode does leave a lot to be desired, maybe that's because of the fucking amazing looking Planet X Grimlock they did, I'd get that, if it was within my budget.

I think the AOE grimlock is a better figure (though this one does have better Robot arms/hands).
>>

no
>>
>>5305790

FoC Grimlock is honestly the best Grimlock toy in ages (not counting MP's). Yeah, he's got the big hollow chest, but it's to fit in the dino bits in robot mode, and both modes look pretty good as long as you're not staring directly into the chest hollow.

And if it bothers you that much you can go spend $40 on a $26 toy to fix it like >>5305780
did.
>>
>>5305797
I do agree that this is the current official best take on a g1-esque grimlock.

Unfortunately, there's not really any modern g1-style Grimlock toys besides MP, FOC, and Classics, so I suppose that's not too hard to achieve. Then again, maybe we'll eventually get Generations Dinobots. I don't know what's holding them back- they're far more iconic than most of the combiners or any of the Headmasters for that matter.

I guess I'll wait until Hasbro makes new Terrorcons to retool into them in god knows how many years.

Also, BW retool of any dinobot toy when?
>>
>>5305983
Speculation says that Legends Gears was originally going to be Brawn, but Hasbro didn't want to have two green guys in that Legends wave (other was Acid Storm). The head for Gears certainly looks more like Brawn's than anything.

Brawn was also supposedly a "cancelled" Legends figure along with a Legends Sharkticon.

Maybe we'll get a new mold that'll be used for a Legends Brawn/Outback.

AoE Slash and Grimlock are getting recolors as Dinobot and Megatron for 2016 exclusive.

Speaking of Fun Pub and Machine Wars, just grabbed the 2013 Botcon set for $140 shipped from the club store since the three figures I did want (Strika, Obsidian, and Skywarp) cost the same alone, and apparently Megaplex goes for like $70 on ebay so it should be somewhat easy to flip some of the cost back.

Doesn't really fly the best with me. Not that it's out of his character, it just doesn't seem to fit. Like, if Bumblebee turned into a pickup truck.

You can't see Optimus? The red/blue of the leather jacket... The bike helmet, with the mouth plate, ears and centre crest thing?

Autobot symbol on the shoulder... the only thing its missing is a representation of the grill abs and window boobs.

Doesn't mean its good, but I fail to see how its any worse than the animu femail starscream.

Probably something to do with this. Unfortunately, I doubt his spark is going critical so Roberts can move on from writing tragic gay romance and get back to the DJD coming to kill everyone.. Until it turns out Tarn is Dominus Ambus.

We don't know for sure yet but it sure looks like it, he's way bigger than when we last saw him while everyone else looks the right size and you can see his regular chestplate behind the new one.

Guess you aren't an engineer either.

Even if its cost, that dollar extends to thousands of toys that are in clearance shops as we speak, their profits burning.

Its more than cost, seeing how there are more complicated transformers from the same line that actually work

Honestly, I'd scrap everything and make a new Windblade that only caries vague components from previous. Working with keeping the wings as outside, but nosecone and cockpit form part of the chest. Legs would instead be modeled after a turbine which split in half to have skirt armor and the actual leg parts acordion out from it, with feet being fans with two folded together for the front of the foot and 3 being used as heels kind of like how Whirl's are and a attached by a swivel joint.

He's more affiliated with Hasbro now than IDW, so he's not doing many of the comics. I know he's going to TFNation later.

His concepts are sick, though. TELL me you wouldn't want a MP G1 Vehicon like pic related?

Check it out, it's just a springer repaint, yet it keeps the look of his Drift design. also he can triple change like movie drift

I can only see Tracks in that design, not a grunt troop.
>>
>>5307447
So that is where Constructabots Drift comes from
>>
>>5307448
it works cause the visor is more of a vehicon thing than a tracks thing.

How come Springer's Lightsaber isn't translucent plastic?
>>
>>5307531
They choose to mold it in one piece. However, for the injection molding process, you need to keep the part below a certain thickness (ard 3mm for transformers). Thus the 1-piece parts have to be hollowed out in some places.

You mean for parts like that it's not a 2 piece mold? Just a single piece of steel that the plastic is poured(?) into?
>>
>>5307596
The steel mold is still 2 halves, but the weapon itself is made entirely out of a single component. If they want non-hollow, large weapons, they have to make it out of 2 or more components.
