dammmmm..i thought they were gonna release a bruticus!!!!

 

Digi

 

That's a fantastic digi, and still didn't increase interest in this design one bit. Says a lot.

 

Not feeling that at all. The arms look horrendously blocky, especially the forearm chunk.

 

If painted right, that head could almost pass for Mixmaster.

 

I think Generations Springer nailed it so nicely even if it ain't MP scale.

This just doesn't look right.

 

Agreed.

 

I know he could be bigger, but he looks great next to Hot Rod. Unless someone gives us an amazing Springer I'm content with mine.

 

I don't think Generations Springer is a very good figure (Mine didn't hold together well, and the car mode was too tabby for my liking), but it certainly did a better job at representing Springer than this. I don't think of gigantic shoulders when I think of Springer. If the chest were puffed out a lot more, and the giant shoulders were eliminated, I think this would actually be a really good representation of Springer. Right now, though? Not at all.

 

Toyworld announced a new MP Jazz figure in a Chinese magazine.

The same shot also features a glimpse of Springers alt modes. Wish I could find the full shot to get a closer look. Or even to see what his name is!

 

Even seeing that little bit, it's clear they compromised his bot mode for fairly accurate alt modes.

Probably would have snagged more potential buyers with a better headsculpt.

 

Yeah that's a weird decision. With MP, a far greater proportion of collectors are interested in bot accuracy over vehicle.
Toyworld are making some strange decision decisions for a supposedly MP line.

 

Bummer... this is close, but falls short of g1 Mp Springer. I hate when 3rd parties put their twist and style on what's imo G1 Masterpiece.

 

I'm almost certain, it's not MP line. You'll notice their releases recently, if not even previously have a scale all of their own.
Toyworld's figures fit with Toyworld figures. Believing they make them to fit into any other scale is up to you, but honestly, you can clearly see that this figure is not MP line at all.

 

Nope, too...something, maybe generic to me... Only passes as Springer, bout, this is definitely a NOT Springer for sure.

 

I think it looks as a fairly accurate update of the G1 toy tbh...

 

I may have to roll with this one until a better one comes along.

 

I agree, one hell of a job ya did there Cheebs. Yet, the bot still looks like poopy.

 

Man, that is one of the worst faces ever. Why the hell do all these third party bots have duck mouth?
