Ravage and Tarantulas look great. As for the Tripredacus Council, I always felt that they were far too red when they were actually gray in the show (with red spotlights shining on them.) While all-gray figures would be pretty boring, 50% red and 50% gray would be a better compromise. Just my $0.02.

 

Wasn't it established that they were in fact actually colored red on the CG models?

I remember back when they got revealed, someone who actually worked on that scene at Mainframe chimed in on these boards. Like, obviously the INTENT wasn't that they were meant to be red, but I think it was done more as an animation cheat than anything. (And considering they basically had to rig up 3 new models for a single scene with 90s CGI tech/budgets, fair)

That said, I know with Cicadacon, if I have a criticism of the deco, it doesn't seem to be properly evoking his mantle from The Agenda part 1. (Heck it'd be neat if he had the chain as an addon, even)

 

We'll see what we can do for the colors and that chain.

 

Currently looking at a possible deal with a major US retailer.

Vote for which color we should make

Blue:



Green:








Katoa has had a color scheme revision to be more accurate:

 

Blue over green, the source figure was a reference to transmetal tigatron and should share his colors

 

Well vote!

 

Where do we vote? Also green would be acceptable if the head was season 1 tigatron, if it keeps ravaged head it should be blue accents

 

Up top, there is a poal.

 

Missed that haha

 

no prob, recent update.

 

Voted blue on Cyberian. Definitely want to make it look like the BotCon Transmetal toy.



If you guys ever get a whole second recolor going, this time as Transmetal Maximals, here are potential partners...

Scattershot - Depth Charge
Strafe - Airazor
Nosecone - Rhinox
Afterburner - Rattrap

 

If you guys have access to many of Wei Jang's stuff which includes their take on POTP Predaking right? If so then would it be possible to make a possible Magnaboss out of it to go with your Quin-Predacus?

Here's an idea what I'm talking about.

Razorclaw as Prowl
Divebomb as Silverbolt
Headstrong as Ironhide with Elephant head for Beast mode.
Rampage as Stripes
Torox as Sidewipe (based on his T-Beast design.)

Magnaboss himself would have a new head evoking his original head.

 

I'd be so in for that if they also downscaled it!

 

So uh, you are actually working with WJ? Or just approaching them with this idea?

Man, this is really cool... I would love to see the three Tripredacus guys in toy colors, too.

 

Our guy Tom is working on a digibash in those colors. I need to talk with our Chinease factory guy to see about different colors in the production run...

 

How many other decos can you think of for this mold?

1. TV accurate red.
2. Toy accurate animals.
3. Shattered Glass Predacus (Magnaboss) colors.
4. Dark Predacus (every toy needs a black repaint!).
5. Toy accurate Technobots.
6. Shattered Glass Technobots (Abominus colors).
7. Transmetal Maximals combiner.
8. Combiner of the Primes (Vector Prime Scattershot, Sentinel Prime Strafe, Alchemist Prime Nosecone, Solus Prime Afterburner, Alpha Trion Lightspeed).

So many possibilities.

 

Can I just say, I don't know about all this? What happens if the base WJ Computron toy comes out and it sucks? Because it looks like it might suck. Then all your efforts are wasted.
