    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Targetmasters are the easiest to incorporate into fiction. Some transformers turn into jets, others tanks, cars etc, so I figure some turn into guns. From the very beginning, Megatron turned into a handheld gun. Headmasters and toy Powermasters sound like active detriments. Being stuck in...

    Mayhem Transformers Discussion: Missing Link? Is this The Wand of Gamelon?

    Rumor on Chinese social media is that it's the same designer as this Legends Computron, instructed to emulate the style of the previous four Terrorcons. The combiner chests do give me similar vibes. Also, beware the mighty warrior, the superspeed futuristic racer, component of Computron and...

    I think the tone of more serious character-driven storytelling would conflict too much with the inherently doofy gimmick. It also adds extra hoops to jump through when any interesting character interactions could be achieved more or less with just the Transformers. "Hahahaha The head and body...

    Transformers Collaborative series

    These toys rely too much on slapping the Godzilla/Kiryu colors on preexisting molds when the Godzilla characters do not have very distinct color schemes. Godzilla is basically all black and all the Mechagodzillas are just silver all over. These translate poorly to molds that don't have any...

    They used milk to represent the Rain in Singin’ in the rain for the same reason. Water didn’t show up well on film.

    Technically, the original Godzilla suit was brown but since the film was in black and white, he turned out dark gray/black.

    I get the impression that Japanese companies just don’t play ball very well. That said, at that point, why even approve the collaboration?

    Mayhem Transformers Discussion: Missing Link? Is this The Wand of Gamelon?

    This was an outlier for them. The four limbs came out within the span of two years. TFC hasn’t released or announced anything in a year and before that it was just repaints and a retool of their GI Joe Optimus for a couple years. The word on Chinese social media is that they lost their designer...

    Mayhem Transformers Discussion: Missing Link? Is this The Wand of Gamelon?

    Holy jive, it's been three years since the last dude released, I had given up on this Abominus. Looks real good too. It has the usual Hun-Grr problem of tiny dragon legs and overly large heads and necks but not as bad as prevous updates and the techno-organic look really sets it apart. So...

    Mayhems tangled mess of controler cords

    Okay, so X5's final boss is pretty notorious for having a PNG for a final boss but the prototype had the PNG as Sigma in the Gigachad pose before Gigachad even existed.

    Hahahaha I get it. Laser Optimus is supposed to be Kiryu and the Matrix is going to be the Absolute Zero cannon. Lololololol. This is terrible.

    Godzilla crossovers look unfathomably lame. Jeez., does Bandai’s contract with Toho have some kind of ironclad restriction to actually making this look Godzilla-related? Diaclone is alright but that’s way too rich for the novelty of lol transforming Shield Liger. Macross is a drawing...

    Screw the IOC. I just want to watch the Australian breakdance lady dancing to Peter Griffin and they have the nerve to scrub it off the internet.

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    I kept holding off on the original because of the lion face. This is still pretty derpy, but it’s cartoon derp as opposed to the first release, so I’m probably gonna go with this one unless the original clearances by a lot. The contrast between the lion on the legacy boxart and the actual...

    Takara put out preorders for Berserk Fuhrer and Command Wolf model kits. I'll wait for Irvine's Command Wolf since anime and better colors but goddamn I don't like New Century nearly enough to pay the money for windmill T-Rex
