On that note I kinda wish we had some stuff in the OP about KOs and, you know, the present comics / media paradigm. It's five years out of date. Oh wait our thread was made by someone who doesn't post in the thread!

Captain Invictus posted:Are you a stickler for scale or it having to be authentic or do you just want the mold to fiddle with, because MPP10, the well-known oversized knockoff is often buy able brand new shipped for like 60-70 bucks on ebay. I have one and he's flawless, as good if not better than the original, and huge. I want scale for a MP collection, all my 84-86 Decepticons are MP scale Not in a rush to get one so I’ll keep looking for a bit. I was hoping the thing I saw about KOs wasn’t true but it appears they only KO the odd color variants

Which obviously is like two things. And a quick explanation on MP, CHUG, and hey everything else is on that tfwiki. Asphyxious posted:Too skinny and backpack heavy. I’m happy with MP 10. God solid boi Same but I’m also not into these animation style paint jobs they’re doing. So I feel like MP is just going away from what I want.

Not really interested in a new MP Optimus but if he uses the same awesome joints and ratchets and things that recent MPs have (Sunstreaker & Megatron for example), it'll be tempting!

The last show didn't have him as mute. So I bought a 2-pack of the OS Make Toys Protectobots from Terry Wong. I specified and was charged for the loose, boxless option to save money ($58 vs $65) and he sent me boxed versions anyways. So I emailed him to let him know and he's like "My friend, for your honestly I would like to extend a 10% discount on your next order." So that was nice. Also if they get their hands on Quantron I will buy the poo poo out of an OS version. Rhyno fucked around with this message at 17:07 on Aug 23, 2018 |

It looks like something that's not very watchable for an adult regardless. Hope kids like it. I am a little curious about what exactly it will be adapting and how it will portray the leading mythology, and I suspect whatever it will have is what we can expect from the IDW reboot because Hasbro wants everything to be the same.

I don't think it's adapting anything. It's a dumber down basics show for kids.

don't think it's adapting anything, but Hasbro has tried before to make an aligned continuity and I think now that IDW is rebooting they're probably going to have it and make cyberverse and new IDW have similar characters and backstory to ensure that someone into the cartoon will get into the comics when they get older.

Like at this point, you'd have been better off just replacing the limbs on MP10, maybe touch up the crotch, get a different head and then paint it more cartoon accurate colors. Because that just looks atrocious with all of its panel lines and that loving backpack

Grey resin really makes panel lines stand out, you won't notice them nearly as much when he's molded in red and blue plastic Doesnt help the backpack though

That backpack does give me pause, but only really because it seems to stick up above the plateau of his shoulder line. If integrated electronics are to blame, that super sucks, because I deffo do not want JP!G1 voices in my Peter Cullen Action Figure.

Then it never really delivered on the big reason Optimus Prime had to come back from the dead. Like if I was him I'd have been all "some Decepticons are mind-controling the planet? Eh, Imma go back to sleep. Wake me if Unicron unfucks himself".
