Mayhem Transformers Discussion: Reheated Leftover POTPie

[unluckiness]

Man now I've got that SD Gundam anime ending stuck in my head. The one with the million copy pasted dancing Zaku

Also, preordered these two. I like the rarely-used colors and dinosaurs are always a plus.

Slugfest looks good.

I bought this sixshot on sale for about$15 shipped. It’s around 86 commander Optimus height and on the skinny side but I dunno, it fits more with the ninja angle than being some gigantic monolith of a robot.

got the Headmaster colors. I like the dark teal more than the seafoam green

I prefer toy style chunk but for $15 I wouldn't complain.

I'm still waiting for some brave fool to make a proper Quickswitch. His design is so bad but so strangely endearing.

Until we get a AOTP Sixshot or something this’ll do. The other options are the mediocre TR mold, the hideous MMC Sixshot, a poorly engineered stylized MP one from the company that made that one IDW Optimus, DX9’s MP version that came with gunk all over it and Fanstoys that somehow has crappier than usual altmodes.

phase sixer Sixshot is a nonentity so I’ll stick with the meme Ninja Consultant.

 

[CoffeeHorse]

Sixshot is not a difficult design. Why are companies struggling so much?

 

[unluckiness]

DX9’s design was pretty good but being Mp scaled big character made him enormous and QC was horrific. The second batch mildly improved QC but came with weird smelly gunk all over the figures

Fansproject’s not bad enough? I mean it’s pretty terrible but a different type of bad, so I can see how it can put off more discerning tastes

 

[Destron D-69]

I'm hyped for this new age of primes bumper boxset.

 

[unluckiness]

Eh. Terribull is the biggest draw, he’s got a cool design and nice colors but I don’t really care for the slew of late g1 do-nothing Headmaster dudes. Ultra Magnus is a predictable but well-executed repaint of an okay but not spectacular mold. I’d probably buy one if he were a single release. Nemesis Prime looks good but is a nonentity (Allspark Almanacs are stupid and don’t mean jive) and would probably be more impactful if we didn’t get black and teal Optimuses every year. Bumper is a literal nobody who’s 90% Bumblebee. I feel this set’s pretty weak.

 

[Princess Viola]

in a few months it'll probably be on discount at target for like $50 which means i'll probably grab it then lol

 

[unluckiness]

Yeah, that sounds about right.

 

[CoffeeHorse]

I'm too impatient. When people start parting out sets on eBay I'll get Ultra Magnus and Bumper.

 

[The Mighty Mollusk]

Maybe if I find it for 70% off like the last set. None of them are really inspiring me.
