Yup. So they basically reference a 70s movie, 4 80s movies and tv shows, and a 00s movie. Skipped right over the 90s. Lol

Here’s some dumb speculation. Given the fact that shockwave was released as a jazz retool, would it be too far fetched to think that the possibility of a g2 smokescreen homage/repaint of maverick with a 90s movie/show reference for a name is out of the question? Hastak did almost release a g2 smokescreen repaint of the universe mold.

 

I'd be all over that, as well as a red repaint of the Manero mold a la Binaltech Red Meister (Binaltech Shockblast's nearest relative FWIW.)

 

Got em. Tried em. I don't like em. Not my bag.

Want some Datsun bros? I got them and Bumblebee/Bugbite for grabs.

 

Ooooo PMed!

 

I now have in hand all 6 datsuns. Pics to come. I adore these little guys.

 

Barry is so badass.



Edit: Seeing how glossy Barry's paint is makes me really want a TFP Knockout (as slim as a chance that is...).

 

I would definately pick up TFP Knockout. Hell, give me a TFP Smokescreen, first or second deco too.

 

But what a mold it is! Here's my latest stab at some Newage Datsun hijinks!
Zherneboh's Rush of Power

PS I'm sorry that the workers are standing in white poo

 

NA are the only company making legends carbots so far. Everyone else's carbots are legends+.

This works for me:

 

Uh, no. Mechafantoys and Papa toys are making Legends+. Iron Factory and Magic Square are just regular Legends.

New Age is like... Legions or something. They are all shorter than Hasbro Legion figures.

 

He's saying that IF and MS are making theirs too big. I haven't been following IF but I agree that MS are just too damned big. And this is coming from a legends+ collector.

 

This is interesting. I like the NewAge carbots I have, but the seem small next to NewAge's own minibots. They look good with the DX9 Dinobots if you want to create that S1 or S2 look of giant Dinobots.

The NewAge guys have been replacing my legion Hasbro guys.

 

I'm talking scale not size:

MP, CHUG, Legends+, Legends

 

Just saw that transclearant Mccoy is on pre-order. How long would that put us on the datsuns.

 

A few days ago ordered DX9 X34P Phonas to join the red eyed Newage bots.

A red glossy Datsun or Porsche, I don't care, I just want.

 

Love them all. I do have Alonzo on the way, but here’s all the Autobot Fairlady Zs / Datsuns.

 

you can't really say that IF is anything but legend scale. that is just a bold mischaracterization of the one company that actually invented the 3rd party legends scene.

if you dont like their car bots size cool MS has legions ready for you. but calling them legends+ isn't right in the least bit. we all know that MFT/HS have the legends+ cars.

post like these are only adding to the confusion newer members are having when they are just jumpin into the scene.

we should keep these things pretty clear to how they actually are and not how you perceive them.

 

Is this another argument that's caused by one person referring to scale and the other to size class?

 

most definitely  

 

That's it! Sizes from now on will follow the old Wendy's chart: Small, Medium, Large, Extra Large, Biggie, Great Biggie, Biggie Wiggie, Great Biggie Wiggie, etc.
