I...guess I can live with Slash using the Dinobot mold - it's a decent enough one, and she'd certainly fit the role as BW Grimlock's little sister. My question, however, is what color she'll be - I doubt they'd go with the G1 Dinobots colors of grey/red/black/gold. Maybe she'll be the same teal as her AOE toy? Or they can go with the baby blue and silver version from her TLK rerelease, I guess?
>>
>>11762034
Did they mention Tailgate yet? He's the only minibot missing at this point.
>>
>>11762044
my thinking was she'd be sort of another crack at BW Grimlock, inasmuch as he was KIND OF G1 colors.
This one would be more gunmetal, black, and red emphasis. But maybe not. I wouldn't mind a red raptor, that's for sure. Wouldn't mind teal either. Just as long as they keep the color separation intact. i hate when a recolor (or an old beast mold in general) is like 'eh it's okay if the thighs don't match the rest of the animal, so the robot can have its own thigh colors'
they fuckin did that with Dilophocon and it took me a LOT of work to paint it back to normal

Also wouldn't mind if they added some feather parts just to make it more interesting, even though they'd have to partsform. And also it'd be kinda funny for the FEMALE to have that but whatever.
>>
I suppose one could argue that POTP Slash scales better with the SS Dinobots than the POTP Dinobots since raptors are human sized
>>
>>11762034
>>
>>11762047
raptors come in basically every size, from chicken to uhh 'nile crocodile on stilts'
>>
>>11762057
so either set of Dinobots
>>
>>11762060
exactly.
>>
I just hope they do more to make her look female than just a headswap.
but they won't.
>>
>>11762066
pretty hard to imagine. in fairness, her original toy isn't very feminine looking either. big shoulders, narrow hips.
personally I'd be happier if something happened like... the rapier is replaced with a falchion...
>>
>>11762068
You know, if we get a Voyager Slash, I would be glad to still see a Leader Skarr. Would be clever in how to make a larger ankylosaurus Transformer work. A seven-man team of Dinobots is a much better sight than the classic five or six, after all.

Also, someone have been thinking that Collapse... might be a trademark-free Landquake, but how can Landquake be trademarked by a different company?
>>
>Skyfire is RID
Damn I got excited for beast machines for a second there before I remembered skyfire isn't Stormjet. Well at lest that terrible tow-line can finally get his rival. OH WAIT, they can retool him into the cyberjets and we can finally get a new motherfucking HOOLIGAN!
>>
>>11761972
I think it'd be like this:
>Scrapper - Scoop
>Mixmaster - Quickmix
>Scavenger - Grimlock
>Bonecrusher - Wedge
>Hook and Long Haul 2pk - Hightower and Landfill/Heavy Load (probably depends on if the combined mode is named Landfill)
>>
>>11762080
There's a ton of potential with a flip-changer-ish jet. You could also get the Machine Wars planes and maybe even some of the Predators with some heavier retooling.
>>
>>11762046
I love the way you painted that - with the proper color separation, it's much more apparent that all the red bits that get exposed in robot mode are supposed to be muscle. Really brings back those old Beast Wars vibes.

>>11762097
Which one?
>>
>>11762082
Meh, RID Landfill's charm to me is the scrable city style gimmick and the derpy combined mode. Making one out of a straight up repaint of Devastator doesn't really work for me.

>G2 Megatron

Fucking finally. Along with RID Skyfire, here's hoping that Hasbro will finally give the G2 era more love. Bring on new Cyberjets, Laser Rods and Rotor Force, please.
>>
>>11762105
>G2 Megatron
Which one? The green one or the purple one?
>>
>>11762105
>tfw it's a repack of the Earthrise one
Hopefully it's not, but I wouldn't be surprised if it is.

>>11762113
Chances of it being the 86 mold?
>>
>they're doing Scoop again
I don't want my boy to suffer another clearance discount
>>
>>11762105
I have Road Rocket, Leadfoot, and few others but yeah I want more G2 dudes. Road Rocket you can use the bars to emulate the laser rod gimmick but there's no gyro element with Leadfoot sadly
>>
>>11762117
I mean Road Pig for the laser bars, not Road Rocket, whoops.
>>
>>11762073
I would also love to see organic Scorn. or G1 Scorn for that matter.
>>11762092
thank you. yeah, one thing we can say about Dilophocon is the designer GOT the old beast wars aesthetic. she's (I mean I'm calling this OC a guy, but whatever) very Guyver. And her transformation is basically that of Iguanus, other than the legs, so she FEELS classic.
I only wish I was good enough at stenciling to add more of the 'cilantro' in the darker green, but meh.
>>
>>11762109
It hasn’t been revealed, though I suspect the green one since that’s the more “iconic” one, though ironically it wasn’t released in Japan (Megastorm doesn’t count) but the purple one was
>>
>>11762117
I'm still annoyed we haven't gotten new Cyberjets when the Maverick mold is RIGHT THERE. It's transformation is almost identical to the old Cyberjets too.
>>
>>11762109
Green one is the more iconic and well known one. They'll probably do the purple one as an exclusive.

If it makes you feel any better they probably didn’t name him Skywarp because they already used that name with the mold during Machine Wars

Retarded dinobots>Super badass rouge dinobots
>>

>Super badass rouge dinobots
I dunno - they'd look considerably less badass wearing rouge makeup. Unless you mean "rogue", which is indeed more badass.
>>
>>11762047
>POTP Slash
It's a perfect figure anf fits perfectly with SS86 dinobots - same color choices and etc.
I dont know how cna they outdo it
>>11762057
>raptors come in basically every size, from chicken to uhh 'nile crocodile on stilts'
And this - when we will have another slash it will be "just another raptor".
I hope so.
>>
>Scoop is a scrapper repaint
holy fuck YES
A new fancy boot for my SS86 Devastator!!!
>>
>>11762037
I wonder if we'll get another Maximal after Ratrap's MP, or maybe another Predacon since we're sorely lacking. Tarantulas would be a good way to go since they have the basic tooling from Blackarachnia.
>>
>>11762145
Call me when we get a Landfill
No not the RiD combiner, the OLD one
Yes, the dump truck
>>
>>11762148
tarantulas is an easy MP because he has almost no cheating. If they let go of the 'the crotch eyes are slightly different from the beast mode eyes!' thing, they could make it even easier. BA's tooling will be completely unnecessary, he'll just transform like the recent toy give or take.
Personally I want to see a version of these two where the robot mode pincer hands become the pedipalps and chelicerae, by hinging the thumb off to the side. That's clearly what the original toy was going for.
>>
>>11762154
>No not the RiD combiner
Yes, the Car Robots combiner
The people demand Build King
Give us the all-yellow deco too
>>
>>11762158
>>11762145
thinking of it...i woud love to get SS86 devastator but yellow.
+ decos like "black and yellow stripes" and stuff. (they wont do that so you have to buy them from that sticker company tho)
>>
>>11762144
>when we will have another slash it will be "just another raptor".
I want to armybuild a bunch of different Slashes so I can have a whole pack, like what was originally planned for AOE; maybe I could name them after the Raptoricons, since we're never getting official toys of them ever.

My hope is we get a Diet Perfect Effect Fort Max
Where he's somewhat like him and can still do Head Mode and be a Head for TR Fort Max
Since Fort Max got a reissue too
>>
>>11762116
while it's true demand wasn't there they were stupid and put him in 3 waves. He started in wave 8 DLX to then be packaged again in 9 and 11 for then there to be "retail waves" that had him, Waspinator, Arcee, Chromia, Jhiaxus, and Mini-ConTeam.

This happens from time to time but usually it's a Cosmos or T30 Waspinatior situation where they don't predict demand right and over glut the market to meet demand. Scoop was never hard to get.

>>
>>11762182
>>11762189
I hope she's more of a pretool for the inevitable TFA Starscream figure, like at least change the waist and thighs a little bit. I remember in one of the videos when they were first showing off SS86 Thundercracker one of the designers, I think it was Eric, mentioned that if they were gonna do a G1 slipstream they'd do more of a retool instead of just a straight repaint

I ordered the Dramatic Capture since I wanted Earthrise Thundercracker mold and the camera stuff looks like a fun extra. I already have 86 Thundercracker but I always wanted ER and the new deco looks nice. Might get Skywarp and the Insecticons too if I like it. The first Dramatic Capture I'm getting.

I want transformers...
i'm addicted to transformers.
I love how they look. how almost most of them have these giant fat robo-legs with lots of stuff inside that you unfold later to build a vehicle/dinosaur.
It's so cool.

damn...transformers are the best toys ever.
>>
>>11762226
then why do you post MTMTE scans instead of actual toys w/ feet
>>
>>11762183
I just want a Fort Max that actually transforms into THE Fort Max, the iconic pyramid-like structure we see in the old G1 toy.

Nice, Dramatic Capture Decepticons are always beautiful in person. Reflector really pops and absolutely MOGS his Siege version (which I thought was a nice figure at the time).

sorry, not in the budget.

It's 100% going to use the SS86 seeker mould.

Hey, why not make the Leader Class, a smaller fare from the massive Titan that desecrated the original base mode, do the cubic base?

>I just want a Fort Max that actually transforms into THE Fort Max, the iconic pyramid-like structure we see in the old G1 toy.

I suspect that one reason that they are moving away from the citybots for Titan class is they don't want to make the little figures that compliment them any longer. You need Core class and smaller to really enjoy the old Titans.
>>
>>11762262
A new Fortress Maximus would need to include a Cerebros Titanmaster anyways, that's all it needs. They can rerelease the Siege Cog separately.
>>
>>11762254
ain't no way. they wouldn't choose some random nobody with a near-identical transformation to maverick only to inexplicably use the seeker mold

While has hasn't been on Transformers in a while, Lenny is leaving Hasbro. Any toys the man had a hand in that you love?
https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Lenny_Panzica

I'd say of that list, Volvo Optimus would have to be my favorite.
>>
>>11762196
How are Cyberwold doing in general? Do children like them? I stopped being a person a while ago, so I have no frame of reference.
>>
>>11762274
It's popular yeah - cyberworld has
1) fun cartoon (it sort of reminds me of 90s Reboot even - sometimes i watch it when i drink coffee)
2) fun toys that liked by kids and adults (that insect, scorponok Elita and Grimlock being bought by adults as well)
>>
>>11762270
Optimus Primal maybe? His list of projects seems to include a lot of things that went wrong.

>The surname Panzica is of Italian origin, specifically from Sicily. It is derived from the Sicilian word "panza," meaning "belly" or "paunch," and is often considered a nickname turned surname for someone who was stout or had a prominent belly.
What a horrible family name. His ancestors should have changed it when they came to America.
>>
>>11762270
I’d probably have to say Prime Predaking, T30 Windblade, Kingdom Tigatron, and Legacy Laser Prime. They’re all pretty solid toys
>>
>>11762196
Oh, that was Euro. I need to pay more attention.
>>
>>11762287
5eur is still super cheap transformers-wise.
I'd say it's the cheapest "best transformer" i ever seen in my entire life.

Usually you can count "good cheap transformer" to go for at least 11 eur (it was like that when core class existed and they went on sale sometimes)
5 eur is "piss cheap" by transformers toys in europe-standarts.

Last time i saw something like that crazy was Earthrise Jetfire going for 35 eur
