I wouldnt say perfect. He has clown shoes for feet and his alt mode can't hide the gray in his thighs, that's such an amateur way to do that.

 

I still love my Gears even though I sometimes wake in the dead of night in a cold sweat remembering his transformation to alt mode.

WHAT'RE THOSE???

Sorry about the dead meme.

I don't mind it on Gears but yeah Brawn's feet are one of his weak spots.

Welp, can't unsee that now.

We've entered the "Liefeld era" of Transformers criticism.

If they (or other 3Ps) do decide to do more revamped carbots, I hope Tracks gets a look-in.

Aye the only thing I'd want to see in a new Powerglide is for it to be bigger... I personally prefer minibots to be more in scale with regular bots.

Oh and it'd be nice if the tail pegged in ahaha.

I take it that, implicitly, you don't give two shxts about poor old Skids either  

 

Correct. Poor Windgharger and Skids are two of the least developed characters of S1&S2 in the toon.

Ill happily pick up an official Skids if Takara ever makes one, but I wont bother with 3P and wont shed a tear if I never have Skids on my shelf.

 

I have to say though, I'm weirdly excited about that XTB Skids  

 

All I want from Badcube now is a Perceptor that looks like a scientist and turns into something that looks like a microscope, not a robot doing yoga.

 

I hope its a great figure because Im not sure how many Skids options we’ll have. It should scratch the itch for those who need him.

As for the context of this thread: BadCube is a pretty good company and clearly has a lot of fans, but where is BadCube going to go with their releases in the future?

Making their own Lambos is pretty ballsy and I do like what they offer with Red Alert (proper Door Wings), but where might they go next?

Obviously there are a lot of untouched G1 characters in MP, but I think many of the collectors are almost finished with their MP Collections.

 

I would love to see BC enter the Cliffjumper war.

 

Um, Powerglide is supposed to have clown shoes?

As far as the gray, what?

Hey like what you like, but wow this is looks like nitpicking level 100 to me.

 

They've taken another hiatus but it seems they are now active. ShowZstore.com and Baba's website are now taking preorders for the Evil Bugs Corp set reissue, this time with solid yellow chest plates. However, there is a disclaimer on ShowZ's website that Badcube will cancel the reissue if there aren't enough preorders placed.

 

I get the impression their "Natures" line hasn't done well.

 

Nature's line?

 

It started off with their Captain Huffy, which I really liked, but since then they've only shown a render for a spider-tank type thing.

 

Didn't they say that they just wanted to produce the stuff they love?

Kudos for that, but in the end, it has to sell...

Natures line did absolutely nothing for me.

 

Maybe the real Badcube was the friends we made along the way.

 

just as Captain Huffy is based on Huffer, i think that spider tank is based on Warpath

 

Dead as disco, it would appear.

 

They're reissuing the bugs so I guess not?

 

You guessed right! Good guess my friend.

 

Hopefully it shows them people still want their G1 stuff, the Nature stuff not so much.
