The teaser has some white in the inner thigh that corresponds to where the small robot shins end up in the old toy. Could be fake robot shins to maintain the look but I don’t think this is the line that they’d pull that on.
The teaser images have the legs moved forward to mimic the G1 boxart so they should be able to move.
I do wonder how they achieved that with the inner robot in there. Guess they could retool it to have backwards knees that would allow for super mode forward hip movement.
Yeah. The lightpiping may save it but the red contrasts much better. Would work if we had the pink face wich I am considering. White antennae are a huge improvement though. I was planning to paint them but these guys decided to give options. Would have preferred a pink head but eh
So that new Hung Grr comes with yellow eyes and white antennae for Abominus That's a really nice option, and I do think the white antennae look much better than the not quite toon or toy look. Might stick with red eyes though. Hun Grr himself also gets the option for yellow eyes but I think red...
I like the concept but the dragon mode being the robot mode slightly hunched over is a sore point. Usually they at least turn the wrists and color the claws on the back different to pretend but this guy just blatantly swaps heads and calls it a day.
I dunno if I want to go the clones excuse for my shelf. Sure it works when there are a lot of them but when there’s only one copy it’s just a bit weird lol. More importantly, I don’t want to go into the troop builder rabbithole
Kickback's wings and Shrapnel's mandibles are now painted silver. They lost the sticker-esque blue and red details. The rectangle on Bombshell's forehead isn't painted gold any more. They also either modified the mold or painted the biceps to match the shoulders and forearms on Shrapnel and...
If their Optimus kit is any indicator, it'll have a Skybound Megatron treaded gun, a new back cannon and be 75% some overly specific Skybound scene reenactment stuff by mass. An Optimus arm a Skybound head with wires hooked to Laserbeak.
I figured they’d either go white to represent the part of the inner robot head peeking through the eyeholes or black to represent the endless depths of his empty soul. Guess there’s precedent for red after all.
Yeah, so useless fluff. No way anybody's touching those shins since that'd be disassembling more than half the toy held together by pins. Best you can hope for is covers which doesn't really upgrade anything.
I can see maybe add ons to the arms or shoulders to make a better turret but aside from that and the cannon, I dunno what they could do that isn’t the typical fluff
Skywarp and gray Bombshell and insecticons with opaque yellow instead of clear probably. Not sure what else they could do since the insecticons are already pretty accurate.
