Yeah. That dinobot's a work of art, both visually and engineering-wise. That it manages to pull off both modes near-perfectly (aside from some unfortunately visible robot bits on the raptor butt) considering that the actual show transformation is literally impossible(dinobot essentially turns inside out when he transforms on the show, with multiple parts of his body clipping into itself), it's really amazing. All three of the beast wars masterpieces are. And the rumored next one is...megatron himself. Though I'd take a masterpiece rattrap in a heartbeat too.

The only problem is that price. 28,000 yen, yeesh. Cheetor is like 80 bucks, and Optimus primal is like 125 I think. I hope that price is like, a case of two or something, but considering the size of mp dinobot, it might actually be like 200-250 bucks.

It's already confirmed to be 28,000 yen. The simple fact is that we're probably paying a lot for the engineering alone, nevermind Dinobot's size, accessories, and built in gimmicks (seriously, each of his robot mode face options have a working lower jaw.)

Wait his ROBOT mode face has a working jaw?

Yeah, it was quickly discovered as many of the stock promotional photos had vastly different jaw positions for the same set of eyes. There's even a cut in the robot mode neck which allows clearance for Dinobot's chin.

I don't buy transformers, but would seriously consider picking up dinobot and would take a mp rattrap in two seconds. They were the best characters in the show.

Transformers are super fun to fiddle with nowadays. The level of intricacy in a lot of them right now is pretty incredible. The masterpieces in particular are nuts, and basically indistinguishable from the original quality bootlegs are readily available for a pittance on ebay, to boot.

The new g1 megatron masterpiece is honestly mindblowing, like it's almost inconceivable that he transforms into a Walther p38 pistol and also a fully articulated, detailed robot

Farewell, marble-dwellers!

Opening the shaking truck, seeing what happens and then charging into the truck.

Seeing the creepy goo lady, running around the house only to find more enemies and then charging into the garage.

The realization that they need the cross bow, which is now on the opposite side of the map from their current position.

The fuse box puzzle. *5 lamps light up* "Okay that's 4"

The contrast of them acquiring the shotgun versus when they got the warden crossbow.


Shaping up to be a good LP. They seem to be enjoying the game too.

I guess, but MP's are just so drat expensive.

I can buy like 3 master grade gundam kits for that price, so I can still satisfy my craving for plastic robots, but in a different form :colbert:.

The Transformer KOs are virtually identical to the real deals unless they state otherwise, either by being oversized, different colors, or voyager sized

A KO Soundwave can only be told apart from the real Soundwave because it doesn't have the logo on the chest

And that would definitely be good enough for me, I don't mind if it's not the official one as long as if it looks really good/similar.

the BSS transformers thread is good for if you need recommendations on trustworthy sellers, the "right" KOs to get, etc. Careful, some of the 3rd party stuff gets super expensive and it's really easy to fall down that rabbit hole since some of them are kinda insanely well made compared to official versions.

https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3555714

in general, anything made by Wei Jiang is great, they tend to both make oversized versions that retain the build quality, while also improving things, adding additional parts like flaps to hide the areas hands flip into, or everything they did to this oversized Titan Master(the white-headed one is the KO, the black-headed one is the real one):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iw4HRLX6nF0&hd=1&t=140s

Worth noting the KO is bigger, improved, and also 3 bucks cheaper than the real one. Sirtoys, one of the biggest sellers of KO Transformers out there, has'em for 13 bucks. All four are fantastic, they just showed up for me. http://sirtoys.com/toys.php?c=1&p=3212&t=WJ_Headmaster_OS_Skullcruncher.html

sometimes the KO companies just go nuts for some reason and make really crazy poo poo, like taking a roughly 8 inch tall toy and turning it into a 2-foot-tall monstrosity that largely retains the same build quality:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yCMob6_gc60&hd=1&t=24s

I have that one, it's surprising that he still holds together so well despite being so big.

Also the names they give the KOs are great. From SKULLCRUNCHER to...CHAMPSOSAURS.

In the Dark Souls Machinima video from ages ago, the game bugs out and doesn't reset a black knight's aggro or position when Pat sat at the bonfire, and it killed him right after saying "He can't get me here". This is nothing new.

Newest Evil Within 2. Pat is in a trapped room, proclaims he is in a safe area, and is then immediately phase-shifted into said trap for big death. It is glorious.

Yeah, I was someone who really didn't like 1 past some of the setpieces, but 2 managed to hit a really good spot for me and I hope the eventual 3 is a further improvement on the moves 2 made.

That one's not a bug. Non-respawning enemies don't vanish when resting at a bonfire, they just lose their aggro. But if they're close enough to the bonfire then they'll re-aggro pretty much immediately.
