Need to take the requisite photos, but I got MP-10V a week or so ago, and he's great. Thanks to you all for making me aware of a masterpiece both in my budget and a good size.

The_Doctor posted:It irks me these always transform the same way those cheap remote control cars do. I get that, but baby steps. On another note, I'm back to thinking about getting an Ultra Magnus. The Generations one looks good, but I want to weigh up my options. I'm not sure what 3p ones are available. I pretty much don't care about scale at all, so long as he's not small, I bought MP-10V lately, but that was tbh partly about price, more than scale, as seen by the fact he's standing with Leader Blaster amongst other things.

Wait, nevermind on Ultra Magnus chat. I forgot I liked the look of the War for Cybertron one that's coming out, even if the range is a bit greebly for my liking.

The_Doctor posted:Well drat, IF has all my money for another year. I remember wondering a few months back if they’d ever revisit characters now that they could easily do them better, and yo, here we are. That Magnus looks great. IF are CHUG Legends sized, yeah? Is the Magnus going to be larger than average, making it legend scale, or will he be about the same actual size as the others? I've not got any IF stuff so not sure how their lines work.

The_Doctor posted:Yeah, they’re all legends scale, any larger figures they do are still in that scale, like Jetfire who came out earlier this year. He’s about the size of a small deluxe figure, but that works because he’s a larger character, so yeah, still in scale. Hmm, I may pick up the Magnus then, he does look good. I don't care about scale all that much, but that figure at normal legends size would be kinda lovely I reckon, so hearing he might be between an avg legends and deluxe might mean I get him. (That said, I'm already set on buying Siege Magnus so )

Only place I've seen siege was forbidden planet yesterday, but their deludes are £20, which feels like a lot. I know that's the new RRP, but it's a lot of money for a deluxe. I think the "Battle masters" (that's the smaller than legends bigger than head master's guys right?) Were nearly a tenner

I have two detolf questions. 1) Do you guys do anything to stop it rattling? It might just be my floors, but it rattles whenever anyone walks past it, and I'm sure it was the same in my old flat too. 2) Lighting suggestions. When we bought my detolf we bought a light for it too, but I've never got around to cutting space for it, but where it is now isn't that close to an outlet, so are there suggestions for cheap-ish battery lights that can be maybe stuck to the top or something and illuminate the unit?

So my detolf is still shaking a bit, and my TFs slowly slide toward to front. I can't seem to do much about a bit of shake, so any suggestions on how to hold them in place, in a non-permanent way? E.g. are there any little transparent rubber pads I could use or something? They always slide in the one direction, so even if it's just something I can put in front of their feet I think that would do the job.

History Comes Inside! posted:Get a bunch of those little transparent "glue dot" things and put them on their feet. They're pretty small and if it's only a slight shake that's making them slide it'll solve the problem. Yeah, that's the sort of thing I'm thinking of trying.

Rhyno posted:Wall anchors are cheap and the holes are easily filled when you move. Super thin internal walls, and from what I've tested it would mitigate it, but these TFs are really slidey. Nothing else I have in the case is really moving

DrChud posted:If you guys had to pick your top 3 characters, be it fond memories of toys/cartoon as a kid, newer movies, or comics, who would they be. Who’s your favorites? Have to have Optimus Prime in there, too quintessential for him not to be. Shockwave was always cool, and the Senator Shockwave stuff in IDW really got me out of nowhere Grimlock was an old favourite from the cartoons from childhood, but honestly I think Sky Lynx might be more my thing nowadays.

Captain Invictus posted:hey rhyno, do you know if this OSKO devastator set is the same as the ones where the individual bots were like 15ish bucks a bit back, or is it a crappier version? those individual ones were solid but if this is a worse quality version I'll skip it. I don't have a final answer, but there were two copies of the old one, which IIRC looked superficially similar but were either pretty well made, or had medium tolerances. I have the $15 ones, and I *think* that is tot he same, and those are medium tolerances, but there was a higher quality release IIRC from a near clone mold. But I may be wrong so wait for Rhyno.

If only I'd done that with Sky Lynx, I sought out the Combiner Wars one because I didn't think we'd see another one for a decade, and now I need to justify £80 for a toy of a character I already have.
