Oh yeah, for sure, but @RICEMASTER's been sharing his awesomeness with us for years. I would say he's had his own mantle for a long time.

It's nice to have a variety of photographers, they're all irreplaceable.

Like, wow:

I think some negative posters turned him off a little (certain ones who I'm pretty sure have been banned by this point), which is a damn shame. Maybe if enough people @ him he'll pop in and say hi!

Yo @Sixo - we miss ya!

 

Negative posters? What negative things would they have to say about his pics?

 

Interesting - you read “negative posters” and think of people saying not nice things. I read “negative posters” and think of this:

 

There's not a day that goes by that I don't regret not making a separate order for this. Hopefully Beast Wars Megatron will not be delayed.

 

@Sam Well said brother... @ChromeMagnus I really appreciate the love, but trust me, no mantle here... Too many greats on tfw2005 who provide this website with awesome content... Whether it be studio type shots, desktop pics, outdoor pics etc... In relation to this fig @TCracker and @unicron nemesis have some killer shots of this guy on this website and instagram/facebook!!!  TBH, what makes this website so popular with TF collectors is the variety of content that many board members provide and that's what definitely keeps me coming back.  You're still my dude though, chromemagnus!!! 

 

I already own Sunsurge so I couldn't justify (to my battered wallet) owning two Sunstreakers. But I bought Cordon strictly based on looks and reaction here. I don't know what it is about the black / white / little bit of red that makes him look so cool.

 

Damn, it's a good job one of the Cordons I bought was to take apart for a toy Sunstreaker custom:



Nothing's broken - there is just no pin holding the door in. Nice one whichever factory worker thought, "Sod it," and just pushed the door into place before packing it.

 

Wow. Sorry to hear about the bad luck.

 

Transformers MP-42 Cordon by triKlops, on Flickr

 

Just amazed that head being able to fit inside the car without modding.

 

It truly is a phenomenal mold. Every time I pick up Sunstreaker or Cordon I’m impressed. Takara definitely had a stroke of genius here.


Brings back the ‘this doesn't look as good as Sunsurge’ posts. Always gave me a nice chuckle.

 

Really wish he was cheaper. I'm planning on getting him, but basically I'm planning on taking the head (and maybe shins if I can match the paint well enough) and putting them on Sunstreaker. It's a huge waste of money and I've noticed I'm really hesitating to pull the trigger.  

 

I bought him to do the same thing but once I got him in hand I cannot move forward with those plans. The head sculpt looks so good the way it is and the red metallic paint is too nice to mess with. I now hope we get a red version with same head but yellow paint then swap the heads around. I would actually put this red head on the red bot, and the yellow head on Sunstreaker.

 

I don't regret buying two of these. It almost makes me hope they revisit some old MPs.

 

I only want this for the weapons which I will use on Sunstreaker. Might have to wait for a KO, unless someone is happy to sell the weapons on theirs?

 

Police bots are awesome.

 

Woot, mine came today, so it looks like shipping from Japan is back on schedule (from NY at least), took about two weeks with economy shipping!

 

MP-42 Cordon. Amazing repaint / retool

 

Anyone still hesitating should check out Nippon-Yasan's "24 hour flash sale". They've got Cordon's list at 9,680¥ here. I'm not sure what he's selling for at other sites, but that sounds like a pretty good deal...
