Well gently caress me, looks like the girlfriend and I are doing the Hasbro shuffle again this year... Transformers meets Steel Panther. Amazing.

So I just noticed Rise of the Dark Spark is up for pre-order on steam and it releases in little over a week. I got it (loved the first two), hopefully it's as good as the others. If not, welp. I'll let you guys know how it is.

Xenomrph posted:The "comparison" pic in that auction isn't nearly as dark as the figure looks in-person. Really? Can you post a picture of your Drift because from what I've seen in videos and pictures all over the net he's really really god drat blue. He doesn't look as dark as the Vitesse you posted.

Xenomrph posted:Yeah, the actual toy isn't quite as "deep midnight blue" as the real car, but that's also real hard for mass-produced plastic to replicate seeing as how the "real" Drift has a professional paint job using expensive real car paint. The issue is the toy doesn't seem to get even close to the dark rear end blue of the actual car, and the wing of the Veyron looks massive because there's no gap. Either way I'll be picking it up when it hits my local Target. Shouldn't that be soon?

Optimist Prime posted:Fair enough. I'm still waiting to see if the Takara version is any darker/shinier. Man I hate the chrome, but I'll have to pick it up. Xenomrph posted:I'll snap some pics when I get home from work today. I do think the dark blue is more than adequate, even if it's not a perfect match. I got mine from Amazon for slightly above retail with Prime shipping. I'll go that route, thanks man. And please post the pics of the toy and car, I love the Veyron.

So Rise of the Dark Spark is pretty lovely, my review is up on Steam but the bottom line is there's no (PvP) multiplayer and everything except the Earth stuff is rehashed. And the Earth stuff is bad. No multiplayer. gently caress.

So I picked up Drift via Amazon as suggested by Xenomrph and I'm really digging him. Transformation is quick and fun and he just looks drat good. I hate the yellow of his swords though and I don't get why the back part (airbrake and back bumper) are black plastic instead of the blue like the rest of the car. Oh, and why the hell they gave him silver paint in the rims. That's pretty strange. Overall drat pleased and I can't wait for that pack to get the better deco of him.

For once I agree with Xenomrph, good show. I love reading the comments of people in this thread who are literally offended by this movie. I'm seeing it tomorrow and luckily for me I know to take it at face value as a dumb action flick based off children's toys.

This film kicked so much rear end, holy poo poo. Prime's bloodlust owns, Lockdown is awesome, the rest of the bots are pretty sweet. It sucked that the Dinobots didn't talk or have any real reason to be around, but no one needs a reason for 20 story robotic dinosaurs to gently caress poo poo up. And at the end when Optimus flies away to basically seek out his God and murder him, as gently caress. I'm surprised the film wasn't released with an accompanying metal album. What a masterpiece.

GrimGypsy posted:Optimus Prime killing a human, even one who was REALLY MEAN , is the stupidest thing to happen in any Transformers story. Stupider than a seeker headbutting a knight, stupider than Seaspray shapeshifting, stupider than Prime sacrificing himself over a video game in the 80's comic, stupider than all other Bay-isms combined. Nah, that was the best.

Some things are stiff as a board and then some joints (like his loving hips) are loosey goosey and just fall all over the place. My DOTM Megatron has loose as poo poo hips too, it'll barely stand.

They look to be exactly the same save for that bulging neck that Optimus has, but then again I don't think Optimus is supposed to look like a hulking brute.

Yeah, all of those little liberties they took with him made a lovely package. But that Movie Prime... drat I need it. Though every time I get a Revoltech I hate myself for shelling out $50 for a 5 inch figure who's joints I really don't like all that much.

Captain Invictus posted:Where are you buying Revoltechs for 50 dollars? Granted they might've gone up in recent years, but I never paid more than 35 for them, and that was for stuff like Hypergalactic Dreadnought Gurren Lagann. eBay when they're out of production, it was the only way I was able to get my Alien Big Chap Revoltech.
