Transformers Thread

As with a lot of customs, I love the dry brushed silver to give it a metallic effect. I also love the weathering on the green.

I don’t dare make this quote a ā€œsnipā€ā€¦that is fucking AWESOME. :pray:

I think you might have actually inspired me to get off my lazy ass and finish my movie Megatron repaint that has been sitting since last Sept.

Yea, this has inspired a custom Computron on my part. I’m waiting for two more figures to arrive before I have everyone I want to work with.

I’m getting either an Energon Blight/Kickback to be Nosecone and Cybertron Red Alert to be Scattershot.

First thing is figuring out how I’m going to merge these figures. I could use those Energon pegs or Lego Technic parts.

I’m afraid to take my MP Megatron out of he box.

It’s been in my closet since Friday.

I think I did the same with my MP Skywarp. I let a full day or two go by before mustering the courage to open it.

:wow: I just got turned by what is mostly artificial material…:wtf::lol:

goddamn, Transformers Animated is an atrocity to the series. it’s blasphemous to create such pure shit.

Satomiblood, thanks for the privit Devestator pics!

If only i could buy that for like 200 or so dollars, fucking awesome!

Damn i wonder how long it take to make that?

No problem, I don’t understand Musolini saying it’s too different from the original. How doesn’t that scream G1 Devastator?

Good god, that is some god-level packaging I see there.

Those are sick. Jese, some poeple have way to much talent stored within them…

You freak. When my MP Starscream arrived, I went home during my lunch break to open him up. I’ll be doing the same when Meg’s arrives.

hey man, im not saying its ugly or that the guy who made it has not talent or whatsoever. i just pointed out that IMO, yes my opinion, the combiner looks cool but doesn’t do the OG one justice IMO. it does do it justice, but it doesn’t look like it. the robots themselves don’t look like the OG’s, combined it looks good but lots of differences with the OG. in comparison, the blades looks good IMO cause it doesn’t try to mimic the OG one, but is a different on that just looks good.

again, im not hating on devestator. i think its different from the OG but gotta respect the amount of work put in it.

personally, im pretty good with drawing. im thinking about making a custom combiner of the dinobots but only in art form. meaning drawn. ill probably be using dreamwaves dinobots arts as a reference. ive got a pretty good idea about how to handle it, but its gonna be damn time consuming. besides, i need to think of transformable armor parts for all the separate bots that should be transforming into parts of the combined form. meaning, a piece of armor with weapons for the robot version snarl and sludge, transformable into a 2 big cannoned weapon they can use in dino mode (think dinoriders style). which i wanna make so that it will also transform into the feet of the combined robot (kinda like predaking). same kinda thing but more different for swoop and slag, armor (with weapons) they can use in robot mode and in dino mode (thinking bout adding boosters for dino mode). transformable to the hands of the combiner. most difficult will be grimlock. i think ill be needing 2 pieces of armor he needs to be using in both robot and in dino mode (hell be the most magnus like in the end). they have to be big enough to be transformable into the chest plate of the combiner, and one for the dick/ass part where grimlocks upper legs will be hiding in (protected). the chest plate should be going to the back too so that swoops wings can be put on the back of the combined form as well (preda style).

most of the thoughts are done for it, still not too sure how im gonna handle most of the armor needed to combine. also, the head. i need to think of one. a separate one, or one that can transform into a sort of armor for grims chest? i had an idea for their weapons to be renewed so that the weapons can also combine into a big ass canon for the gestalt, same for newly designed swords that can be combined for a bigg ass version of it. too much trouble though. ill need to start of with the combiner first. shits gonna be time consuming. biggest reason why i probably still only have the idea in my head instead of on paper.

I have some awesome and rare stuff coming in this week, well, end of the week hopefully.

Black Energon Rodimus and an Energy Blade Phantom Night Blade Edition to go along with it.

This shit is bad ass, not something you’ll see everyday, especially the blade. I’m approaching ownership of every Japanese exclusive release during the Armada-Triology. There are only about 5 more to get…

no worries yo…

happens to everyone…

whether they know it or not…

coughluckydrawcough!

Well, I don’t even honestly count those. Anything with a production number in the range of 5-100 is essentially a production gift. Also, I don’t like the all gold and silver figures. I may go after Ice Magnus or Black Megatron sometime, I dunno though.

Has anyone seen any of the Japanese only series? I got Transformers Victory need to watch it still but the animation is nice considering how old it is.

I love Victory. Masterforce is really good too. They’re both different kind of shows than original G1 stuff, but both are very entertaining.

I’ve been wanting to see Victory because of those Liokaiser clips on Youtube.

victory is pretty good. its slow and repetitive like all the japanese tf series but its still enjoyable.

japanese tier list:
super link>victory>zone (pretty hardcore for just one episode)>masterforce>galaxy force>headmasters>keeping up with the kardashians

Prowl and Sunstreaker will be part of the Japanese Classics line (link) this summer.

Also, it appears that Metroplex and Skywarp/Thundercracker will be the next Encore releases (link) in August. The seekers will be $69.99, whereas as Metroplex will go for $84.99. There’s also a ā€œhigh qualityā€ KO of Metroplex that came out a few months back.

That KO is a POS…

I’ve heard it’s pretty good aside from the mismatching white and gray paint scheme. Of course, that’s all I’ve got to go on.

Also, talk about rare, but unreleased G2 Motormaster and the Protectobots
