Has there been any word on getting a (hopefully) Voyager-scale TR Grimlock, since Clobber transforms into a perfect representation of Grimlock's head?

Now that we're getting a great Perceptor (and hopefully very soon), Grimlock and Ratchet are my two most-wanted remaining characters from Titans Return.

They're rumoured for the next line though, and we don't know what the gimmick is for that.

TBH I think at this point if Brawn is any indication then in the unlikely event of a Headmaster being repeated as a full figure then it'll be a full figure and you'll just end up having a spare head anyways.

Did anyone read the Transformers 2017 Annual? There is a major development at the end. Optimus and Prima Magna go to the caverns where the Crystal CIty was destroyed and they see that the remains of Shockwave's experiment has collapsed into a singularity.




Well. At the end we focus inside the singularity where the ruins of the Crystal City still stand and walking among them is Bumblebee who appears to be alive and well.

Well it depends on how much you demand paint matching to plastic. Because they.. Really didn't do well there. It kind of works but now I sorta wished it was Goldbug or Vac Metal G2 Bee which is still kinda the best Bee even though one of the Takara versions of the Classics Deluxe is the actual one. I'd be cool with it being Glyph as well. We need lady science bot back. And easy Windcharger repaint as her bodyguard pal Tapout.

Course I want Gobots homages so YMMV on what are good repaint/character uses from a mold.

I've seen several fanmodes for Broadside, this one posted at TFW looks promising:



This one I think requires swapping the tail fins, but you can do the fanmode with the regular fins too.

Yeah it's not like it's an editor's job to be aware of things like that. For gently caress's sake there's an entire Transformers Wiki he can use as a cheat sheet.

To be fair, Bumblebee did also get a body reformat into the Goldbug toy that was out at the time too. He both was and was not Goldbug.

It's fine if you don't go in expecting MTMTE peak work.

Unless you find Roberts tugging his OCs in your face while he grunts out "what does HE transform INTO?" because then you're in trouble.

Got wideload today, he's a big bright orange beautiful boy, and he's got some heft to him! Can't wait to get the other one and combiner parts so I can have a combined one and a group of uncombined ones.

And if the economy doesn't implode in the next month or two, I might pick up a third set to have combined, robot, and vehicle modes at the same time, they're so absurdly cheap why not! :v:

God drat you all.

I clocked a few days ago that my local Asda had restocked on the Titans Return line. All this talk of Triggerhappy made me curious if he was there and sure enough I find him on the shelf, at a slight discount no less.

So of course I bought him.

I should not be spending my money this way!

Probably, yes. They're about the same price point as on ebay, and look the same excellent quality. You could always email him and ask?

Friends I made a promise to share a magical(ly stupid) thing with you all. A triumph if you will.

THE PARTY WAGON

A mobile transport of alcoholic robot heads firing guns and projectile vomiting in all directions. Yet designed so with light shaking none of them fall off.

But like all trailblazers and adventurers, I knew I could do MORE.


Learning from those Magic Friendship Horses that made Goons have irrational rage a few years back the Autobots too decided to join in, bringing the Wagon to levels of mayhem and debauchery not seen since the latest video upload on Brazzers.


Don't mind Hardhead. He decided to get bumped off his peg because plastic tolerances and I am too lazy to take and upload and edit more photos. There is a lot of slushy snow where I am and I have other ways to dorkily waste my time in between said shoveling. (He is back where he is supposed to be now. Until I disassemble the thing and put all the gang back on their bodies.)

25 or so Titan Masters (or Headmasters if you want) all riding stably on one Decepticon Ninja Consultant.
