Excellent :)
Tbh I'm mostly wondering if these are identical to the ones from Dead Prowl/Ironhide. (And trying to convince myself I no longer need them if so, haha)
To be fair, I don't think that's what anyone's really saying either, just that the execution of the tank mode is not to their liking. (I know you're being facetious, but the momentum of these things...)
The turret is kind of a write-off for me. That's where all the obvious compromises kind of wound up with too little left to paper them over. The body and treads of the tank are fine, passable. The turret would need panels to enclose the arms and make it all hang together a bit better, but they...
I'm impressed at how non-gappy this guy is. That's very very solid-looking.
And wow, Widowmaker. I want more of these concept and offscreen redecos/retools, please. Although I will note with some worry that Queeljack seems to be using plastic for the pins/rivet-type things (see knees and...
Ooh. Another Golden Lagoon set, but mostly focusing on ones that weren't in the ~2018 line. Legacy Beachcomber (obligatory), with SS86 Bumblebee (can also be repurposed for a G2 custom), Ramjet, and Megatron.
Found a pretty big copy of the box art on this page. It's slightly wider than the Mecha Catalog thing, and doesn't have the higher contrast.
Fiddled with both and a bit of masking and contrast doodling, using the bigger image to fill in the sides and the erased-watermark bit (since the...
A set based on "Traitor" really should have both Cliffjumper and Mirage as well, so that list gets crowded fast.
Then there's "A Plague of Insecticons", which has Thundercracker but not Skywarp (I think). "The Insecticon Syndrome" has the titular Insecticons and Skywarp is also there, but idk...
I'd love for someone (I'd say Toyhax, but they're very occupied making cel-shaded everything) to make alternate face stickers for these with a maybe 65% less obnoxious non-"Dreamworks face parody" art style.
This would be an easy and attractive set later on with an SS86 Megatron, the Selects Hound, and a Cliffjumper retool of SS86 Bumblebee with the bazooka from the Earthrise release.
It's an odd head design, with Seeker vents on the sides of the helmet but an uncharacteristic Prime-style crest. Maybe the latter is due to the design of the head connection?
Appears to be paired with Starscream, so that seems to suggest a female Seeker.
Edit: looked around and Legacy United...
I wonder if this set will come with the accessory pack camera, painted up (is that even paintable plastic). This seems like an easy pass, but then I'm wondering if they'll hit a nice blue on Thundercracker.
I wish they'd give us like a Season 3 set. (Maybe this is how we finally get that more...
