I like the megatron paint job better than the green one sitting on my desk right now, but that prime is a total piece of poo poo with his spinning punch gimmick that makes his torso too loose to stay in place.

Joe Fisto posted:I'm gonna go ahead and say that I'm kind of excited for these. Yeah, Megs and OP are from that crappy two-pack, but I missed OP the first time around, and the new paint scheme on Megs is worth owning a second figure. And, as for Dragstrip and Overkill, they look really neat, IMO. Especially Dragstrip. (For the record, I collect Primes, Megatrons, and am a competist for the Classics/Universe 2.0 line. So my opinion is kind of biased.)

Spoilers for the new movie! Both character and toy spoilers await you here. Note: URL is also a spoiler so don't mouseover if you hate spoilers. Sideswipe's in it as a Chevy Corvette. Ravage has been confirmed, with a "raw" beast mode. The Constructicons merge to become Supreme-sized Devastator. Megatron is now a Cybertronian tank, with matching Leader class figure. Prime gets an all-new Leader class figure with a different transformation.

Here's another spoiler: Optimus Prime to Combine with Jetfire in TF2 During a Hasbro Italy 2009 Brand Preview it was revealed that Transformers Movie Optimus Prime will Combine with Jetfire in Revenge of the Fallen. I guess so that he can fight Devestator.

I think it's pretty cool that movie Megatron once again, transforms into a silver pile of poo poo, this time with treads instead of wings. In other news, my only transformer, Lockdown, fell from his perch on my desk and broke his hook and I cannot find the piece. This means he is now permanently in vehicle mode and I have to go buy another Lockdown once I get a drat paycheck. Are the newer figures, ie Blazing Lockdown, more reliable for not having lovely paint applications?

The Corvette is the Centinnial Concept Corvette which will never see production... so this will be a one-off thing if you truly think about it.

Just make him a sweet new hook out of some plastic sheet and some super glue. As far as paint apps go, I haven't seen any improvement between waves.

Really, I'm not an idiot, but I just want to ask in case this isn't just me... sigh... So I took advantage of TRU's by two get one deluxe transformers sale today and picked up Oil Slick, Snarl, and Universe Acid Storm. The only one I'm resoundingly disappointed in is Snarl, he really doesn't hold together well and when he does he still doesn't look like much of anything. ...anyway, that's besides the point. The Snarl and Acid Storm I got... Well, Snarl's center horn(robot mode head) is bent to the left, and Acid Storm... well, he's got a hole in his face. It actually kind of looks like he lost in a knife fight. I know this is a really stupid question but... they're really not supposed to look like this, right?

gently caress all y'all, Galvatron is sweet. Aside from the fact that every single one of his pieces pops off when you transform or move him. He looks cool in both modes and his transformation is neat, he'd be amazing if he just stayed the gently caress together.

I just rewatched Lost and Found in honor of my Blitzwing toy and man, the Decepticons are complete badasses. They needed a God drat spaceship to take them down. Prime talks about evening the odds when its like 5 on 2.

Bad news about Animated Beachcomber:Derrick J. Wyatt, lead character designer for Transformers: Animated posted:"I worked on Beachcomber's design with designer Irineo Maramba. He was going to be a total hippy slacker type. Unfortunately his speaking part in the early part of season 3 got cut for time. So, at this point, we don't know if he will even be in season 3 or not."

Collector Club ammounced:quote:The Club has posted a preview for issue #23 of the Club Magazine in the Club forums, including an image of 25th Anniversary Smokescreen from Silverstreak! But the allspark kids can't and won't post scans. They say Smokescreen is ugly, but since I can't loving see it yet, I'll have to withhold judgment.

Woo, happy day. I just picked up from a guy on TFW2005 Cybertron Supreme and TRU voyager Starscream, as well as Armada Starscream for $65. Plus, I won a free Rock Band song from Stride. Anyway, when I was at the guy's apartment, I got to see Animated Longarm/Shockwave up close; he's pretty boss. (He paid, like, $90 and got it from the guy who supplies the guys who sell it on eBay, whatever that means.) I'm not a fan of the color scheme, but he looks pretty bad-rear end in Shockwave mode.

DarkPrime posted:COSMOS! I'll to that too. It looks like they used the unused Titanium Cosmos' design as a base for the figure. Using the legends class for the mini-bots is the best idea ever. I wish they would have thought about it before they made Powerglide about twice the size of Prime. Oh well.I really want that Smokescreen, although the paint scheme does look a little busy on that mold. I'm curious to see Robot mode. SOUNDWAVE HAS NIPPLES!!!
