    Post Pictures of your Transformers, Let's see firetrucks fighting with sharks!

    I hope a bigger Generations style toy of that TF One design gets made. I dig the design and it looks good but it needs some stature. Yes, he has to be a bigger jerk.

    The Repaint Concept Thread

    I could have ignored the rest if the expression weren't so... weirdly sad. An image search shows lots of regal or aggressive looking neutral faces on lions; not sure how the hell this specific hangdog expression made it through all the design phases.

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    I've come to warm to Skullgrin myself, a bit. I wish the robot mode were less blocky and a bit more organic, and I wish the altmode had managed to capture more of the angular wedge shape of the original. Of course, these may be at odds, and are tricky to balance. In any case it's kind of funny...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    That sounded agreeable, even familiar, so I looked around and... huh. Found this post of mine in another, older thread. Except with Micros and not Core (so even smaller), and reliant on R.E.D. which also seems done.

    At the time the typical Leader class packaging also had no window. Legacy was the first to have closed boxes for Leaders. The Velocitron stuff showed up partway through Legacy (so they were likely aware of what the main line packaging would be), with windowless Leaders as well.

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    All that rhetoric to the effect of "they're not fans of it and the way they talk about it, it's like they think others aren't either" ignores that it's likely nothing to do with being enamored or not with the original concept: "Pretenders with opening shells" is a pricey mess to actually execute...

    Star Convoy, Overlord, and at least Super Ginrai/PMOP would all be doable at Commander, I feel, and I'd rather they get released in that format than anything else. The Titan bit is an unnecessary plussing up for even Overlord, as Tidal Wave got that because of his video game level (for a long...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    I think this is about as useful as an answer anyway (and therefore the question is about as useful as it was). These questions remain a waste of a slot regardless of the kind of answer they get, because it's the same question just Mad Libbed with different requests (which is really what they...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Let it be Primus. I'll gladly sit that one out and it won't need me and my fellow broke-ass fools in the least because that'll sell well regardless. Have a little alcove in the torso be a "Primal Scream" scene space for teeny minifigures, haha. Or let him turn into a Matrix instead of the...

    Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

    I need to listen to it again. I did like the sting of music with "Did you forget who I am?" and the Seglass ni Tonday motif.

    Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

    She doesn't, at least not in their initial encounter. And he does announce it while fighting Bumblebee. Sigh, rewatching that made me sad. But yeah, I'm with Steevy on that. It's so... lazy. "And then he's a bad guy now, so he should call himself Nemesis Prime!"

    Post Pictures of your Transformers, Let's see firetrucks fighting with sharks!

    I really like the angled whatevers on top of the car roof, but I wish they'd beefed up or at least widened the car rear a bit since the front is so wide. Also, was it really that unfeasible to find a way to cover the front wheels in copter mode? The new rotorsword is better than Siege's take...

    The Repaint Concept Thread

    Be neat if he could also double as a mini mobile launchpad/gantry thing. The new panels and such can be Weaponizer wings or shield panels (ooh, or Modulator road/bridge panels). Make It a 2-pack with a new Scamper (Siege Sideswipe retool), or a Sixgun in matching "movie Autobot City" orange and...

    Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

    Yes, that's what I meant. Not much about TLK's score stood out to me the way that (or as much as) those two pieces from Age of Extinction did, which is why I remember AOE's score more fondly than TLK's. Or at least those parts of it. (Also, doesn't he explicitly call himself Nemesis Prime in...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Funny enough, that doesn't bother me at all. Like, it looks incongruous and weird, but not quite a dealbreaker. The real issue to me was always the poorly wadded-up tank bits under the too-small-to-hide-them jet wings. Even TR/LG Blitzwing's "my landing gear is a tank turret stapled under the...
