Transformers Thread

He’s done very well for himself in the aforementioned Armada, but he also held his own in Cybertron, IDW G1, Prime, and the films. The others are self-explanatory, but in the movies, Megatron was trapped in that ice for a very long time, and Starscream kept the 'Cons focused and in motion during that time.

Got this guy today…he is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. If you told me this was an official Takara toy, I’d have believed you, but it’s BadCube. This is even better than SPHINX/MIRAGE.

Experienced the dreaded GPS on a figure for the first time. Grabbed Air Attack Optimus Primal out of a box. One leg literally was ripped out of the sealed ratchet socket and this lower leg just completely fell apart.

I hope they are doing a masterpiece beast wars megatron after optimus primal is done.

Vulcan (FOC Grimlock) is great in look, but in the long term I have some concerns for part tolerances. With Road Rage, I think I like the deco better on her than on Tracks, even though Tracks has that gorgeous blue finish.

2015 has come and gone- What would you guys say are your top 3 best and worst releases for the year?

I only got CW Devastator and FT Sever + Scoria this year, so I guess those are my winners? No real disappointment there.

Top 3 for the Year -

MP Star Star Saber
CW Superion
MP Tracks

Top Worst/ Disappointments

Leonidas -Looks great but QC was complete junk on this thing
CW Menasor (as a combiner) - Just look at it LOL

Prototype picture of TR Blaster and his cassette bots…

Maketoys Version of Megatron - Color render

Here is a side by side I edited with Apollyon (not to scale)

https://scontent.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xap1/t31.0-8/12401688_10207581489670616_6321197138559141016_o.jpg

IMO, Apollyon blows this thing away.

I’m on the fence. Apollyon looks more like 80’s era Movie Megatron (slim/anime style) while Despotron looks more like 2000’s era DW Megatron (bulky/comic style).

Totally agree. I like how these companies are using an art style for their creations (DW, Studio Ox, etc). Problem is, on a MP shelf, Apollyon just nails all of the high points.

Damn it Hasbro -

Totally gonna skip this. I can already see who the figures are gonna be retools of. Skylynx, Brawl and Air Raid

Umm who is that?

Forgive my ignorance lol

Liokaiser- The Decepticon “Breastforce” Combiner team from Transformers Victory. Its not even going to be done in a way respectful to the main body of the team. This line has already fizzled out for me. After G2 Bruticus, I’m done with CW.
