MP Ultra Magnus silhoutte revealed as well (With Star Saber sketches)
Itâs a good day for you Autobot fans ;p
Also knowing Takara, you can bet your afterburner that eventually there will be an cartoon accurate MP Wheeljack repaint.
I really do wish that theyâd get more Decepticons on the MP lineup. The problem is, they are basically repaints. The G1 Catalog was grossly one sided until about season 3
1984
Autobots
Decepticons
1985
Autobots
Decepticons
Unless they do combiners, technically HasTakTomy is doing things âcorrectlyâ
Holy cheeseballs: I did not realize they had already done the entire G1 year one Decepticon list. That is crazy to me: surprised I didnât realize that.
I would welcome an MP Megatron 2.0 though, even though we have most of S1 cons (FT Quakewave counts as an MP Shockwave for me and Reflector⌠well not many people would care lol).
I need him in scale and with no comprimises to his Robot mode (Toywordâs Hegemon shows us that that can be done)
I sound like a broken record on other TF forums, but I am quite surprised they havent done Galvatron yet.
3/4 of the main leaders in the G1 cartoon were realized as MPâs by 2009, so I thought they were going by character importance.
Supposedly that is a âconceptâ image as the show may actually be rendered. I liked the Prime aesthetic. It took the level of detail akin to the movies with a very unique proportions like Animated. A very well done blend of the two in my opinion. The stuff that was put out was great, up until the Beast Hunters lineup. While the Predacons were decent, the retools of the other characters took spikes to a whole new level.
Regarding the MP Line. Either do Megatron 2.0 or do Galvatron. To be honest, if they pulled a solid G2 Megatron, there would be a market for it. If MP Megatron 2.0 is done, the silencer needs to be a part of it.
Oh, man, I remember when I first saw those Constructicon figures, I wanted them!
So, I finished reading Autocracy. It was very good. How Orion Pax became Optimus Prime was cool.
It kinda bothers me how easily Megatron killed the previous Primes, Sentinal and Zeta Prime. You think the matrix of creation gives them more power and all, and then come Megatron and quickly dispatched them. Whatâs the point then?
Read the latest Robots in Disguise and More Than Meets the Eyes issues, very interesting plan that of Shockwave. I still think itâs funny Prowl is the head of Devastator. Speaking of which, Devastator vs Monstructor!!
Man, I really like IDW continuity.
Oh, and Megatron cares about BumbleBee? Really? lol.
Itâs not so much Megatron cares about Bumblebee, but Megs was starting to see what he had lost after he started the revolution so long ago in Bee, and Bee was getting him to start changing.
IDW has Megatron done RIGHT as a well-intentioned extremist, which he nearly always is in any TF iteration, heâs not commonly done well, though(or he really is depicted as a card-carrying villain a la the RiD cartoon/Armada, but YMMV on the Unicron battles); but IDW did him AND Shockwave RIGHT; class wars are COMPLETELY valid reasons for him to START this path, but the old saying applies unfortunately all too well hereâŚ
The road to hell is paved with good intent, and for all the truly bad things heâs done so far in-verse, it all started with a dream of total equality; and that makes it
all the more poignant to me. My feels.
So far I DEFINITELY agree.
He is a character that you can like BEFORE you look deeper, yessss. (see?)
He does (very) bad stuff(sup Dinobot II/Inferno/Quickstrike), and you might be like âThis guy is irredeemable.â and then you remember that the Predacons are SLAVES back on Cybertron.
His god complex later on and in Beast Machines do make it less ambiguous, but again, itâs well-intentioned extremism; and in this case,
he very well could have been considered a divine of some sort in BM, but most certainly a god of evil, not good, which brings us back to the completely
tragic path I mentioned. Travel it long enough, and you may very well end up ruler of the land at the end of the road.
Looking to free his fellows(again, SLAVES; big BIG deal, and very justifiable reason to take intense actions), he started depriving others of that right, and often their happiness, and sometimes lives, in return. It really is profound. Damn.
Fuckin Beast Wars, man.
BTW, I have it(WOOOOOOO) and I rewatch Code of Hero more-or-less daily(and he DID join Cybertronâs greatest after all, shoutouts to the Hall of Fame).
Why canât we have stories of this caliber be the rule rather than the exception?
am i the only one who hates the minibots? mini cars like that bitchmade bumblebee and those minicons like those 3 that tf into a camera and insecticaons and shit? all their designs suck and look like those cheap gobots? you know that tf wannabe cartoon from the g1 era. the bigger bots look good from an actual design stance. the g1 cars, all the decepticons pretty much.
and yes to megs 2.0 with a non fucked up bot mode. seriously, wtf were they thinking with the bot mode for the first one. even prime 1.0 mp didnt look this shitty.
Ha I watched that one a couple weeks ago. It always chokes me up. Dinobot was as Gâd up as they come in that one. snarls
"IMPROVISE" wrecks Megatronâs shit
And I was a Megatron STAN in BW Ah Yes the inevitable treachery, but even I had to bow on that one.
Some good news if you never owned THS-02 (Hybrid Style Convoy) this is awesome!
Optimus Prime (Then and Now 2 Pack)
What I find funny is that the THS figure is figure thatâs 8 years old and is probably one of the most complex and detailed versions of Optimus to date (despite the terrible truck mode). The Evasion Mode figure from TF4 is not going to be anywhere close to detail or posability as that figure. they should have just used the Deluxe classics mold
Also Confirmed by TFW- a little concerned because Sunstorm is the MP03 head
