SlothfulCobra posted:Oh yeah, I forgot, RID is the sequel to Prime, which was supposed to somehow be in the same genre as War for Cybetron. Interesting way of calling back to that. The Crab Car just received his first Warrior toy recently, though. As did two different versions of the Skorponok mold. Bludgeon looks amazing.

Rhyno posted:No part of the show is actually good. making up original characters that are all bizarre different combinations of animal robot and vehicle was imo very good, even if their characterizations were basically "what funny accent does this one speak in". it gets really tiring that everything must be g1 over and loving over again.

Particularly when the main line is already as G1 as it can get. I can't say no to more Bludgeons though. And I gotta get Bisk somehow.

You're probably right, I'm just used to everyone calling the "generations" and associated sublines the "mainline". gently caress them though Astrotrain rocks. Can't wait to see Blitzy and Octane too! I just wish I had some money now. Was the machinima thing that terrible? Guess I don't need to bother then.

The main line is whatever line is supporting/supported by the primary media. In 2015/2016, that has been RID.

Rhyno posted:BRO.  Then his gun mode has the back of his head sticking out the bottom, and his arms don't line up with his chest.  And on top of that he's more expensive than any other Masterpiece figure since MP10, even Ultra Magnus, who's a bigger figure. I want to support the Masterpiece line, but it's getting to be a hard sell... Anyway, go get your Liokaisers everyone: http://www.entertainmentearth.com/prodinfo.asp?number=HSB6639

For Canadians, here's your Liokaiser: http://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/transformers-generations-platinum-edition-combiner-wars-liokaiser-action-figure/6000196148811 Yeah no I don't understand either, note: ships in a shopping bag taped around the box with a receipt for men's boxer-briefs still stuck to the side.

Anime-Export's got MP-36 for $154. They also just put up a bunch of reissues, including Soundwave, MP-10, Emperor Starscream, and the cassettes. Shame there's no all-in-one like the american soundwave though. http://www.anime-export.com/search?search=Masterpiece

I do like the figure otherwise, but I wish it had come out during the MP-10 aesthetic era and not the more cartoonish look they're going for now.

Going to try this here, did anyone get Delta Magnus and NOT want the extra Ultra Magnus faces? I'd pay handsomely to get my hands on some.

So Brainstorm was surprisingly easy to acquire after all. I didn't even realize Walgreens had an online store. Pretty great figure. It helps that it's based on what was already a pretty nice mold. Also got Monkeypiece Optimus Primal yesterday. The back of the legs in gorilla form are kinda a bummer but I think the figure overall is pretty great.

God drat right you do. Some Amazon seller had the next wave of Titan Masters for $22 shipped so I pulled the trigger on those, saves me the effort of driving around looking for them. All the major Etailers have Liokaiser up but I'm holding out to see if Diamond will stock it. And my MP Primal shipped! Wheeeee!

Finally got my Soundwave. like the robot mode, not so much the other modes. The instructions are an absolute disaster though, a mostly grey robot being displayed on a grey background. Just an amazing level of ineptitude.
