There's a FPS/tower defense hybrid game I've been playing that lets you build your own outpost for defense. I tried to recreate Fortress Maximus:  Had to make some concessions to actually have enough guns to play the game but I think it turned out pretty well. There's not my much color customization though so I couldn't really get away from grey. Edit: With some shenanigans with the builder (it really doesn't like what I'm doing here) I was able to get the guns on his legs working.

TaurusOxford posted:Impossible. Not only would the other MP Primes not have the engineering to fit into the cavity, MP Ginrai is clearly smaller than them. The only "engineering" I hoped the Optimus would need would be to turn the waist around backwards before turning it into truck mode so the knees can fold the rest of the legs up behind the cab. Most Optimuses let you do this, then I just hoped the cavity would be big enough to let it sit in there.

for fanmade, it's pretty spot on G1 style. i remember a g1 episode where Megatron was lamenting how ugly the Earth forms were. I think that was when the cons got loving wasted on Energon? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CR28DoWaR9I

Sweet! ShowZ actually did get the factory to send me an entire back panel to fix my KOMP Sunstreaker! Part of it was also broken, but in a way where I can easily discard the broken bit and still do the repair to get him 100%.

Playing with character ideas (as one does) S1 era of Beast Wars, a Maximal moose triplechanger in the style of B'Boom or Transquito. Third mode is an air defense platform firing Surface to Air Moosiles. (The antlers are his radar!) Normally phlegmatic, doesn't do well with close confrontations. His natural enemy is, of course, the Predacon Wild Weasel.

I got this guy (and the other two teams but they don't look this good).  He's not perfect. The hand feel on fansprojects' parts is weird. But what an experience.

Did it come with the original hands and what can only loosely be called "feet"? Weird feel is still an upgrade. Is that a completely third-party Swindle?

It came with absolutely everything from the original releases including the other tank and copter. Both Swindle and Blast Off are completely third-party figures from Fansproject that constitute one massive upgrade kit along with all the improvements to Onslaught and the parts that make Vortex into a Combiner Wars-grade limb.

DoctorWhat posted:Both Swindle and Blast Off are completely third-party figures I figured, they didn't ring a bell and I remember the Energon combiners doubling up on limb molds. I was really impressed by the Energon combiners back in the day for how well good they were as individual figures, full articulation, not excessively blocky yet still sufficiently sturdy, and the only concessions to the combiner function were a few connectors and a spare head hiding in a compartment. Never really bothered combining them much. I guess figuring out elbows was also a nice trick. Combiner Wars I guess ended up using most of the same tricks but a little bigger and with much better handfeet.

So free broadcast TV network MeTV is doing an all cartoons spinoff channel called MeTV Toons in collaboration with Warner-Bros Discovery and among their initial slate of shows is Challenge of The Go-Bots in what is probably the first time that show has been aired on English television in at least twenty years(probably closer to thirty but who knows maybe it aired on Boomerang at some point)

The Energon combiner hands didn’t bother me at all. There’s no reason a combiner should have normal hands; making them all weapons is the way to go. It’s not like the drat things will need to sit at a computer and code C++ or something

They did come out before Transformers and were much more affordable. Leader-1 was a tomcat and you couldn't get any more cool than that at the time. They couldn't compare to Transformers or stand up to it, but they did some good stuff and had a couple cool bots.

The Combiner Wars handfeet also had their share of issues, but I thought they were a much better compromise for needing to pull double-duty.

How do you expect them to do finger pointing or slam their fists together when they complete their combination if they don't have normal hands? Don't disregard the cool factor.

Combiners probably should be more like mobile artillery or specifically equipped for battle. It's not like (as far as I know) the combined forms have their own lives separate from the individuals that compose them.
